^{KEJRIWAL RUNNING AWAY FROM VARANASI!}

^{Kejriwal well planned his election strategy in Delhi Assembly elections. He knew, as long as BJP did not get a majority, even if he had 8 to 10 seats, he would be able to make Congress allow him to form the ministry, as he thought Congress would prefer him on any day to Modi. With him forming the government, there was some hope for Congress to have some say in the government. His plan succeeded. Besides,  inn Delhi, Congress had the rope in its hand and it was in a position to topple Kejriwal at any opportune moment. Definitely it would not have allowed his government for more than a couple of months at best and at best it would have continued its support to him till just before the announcement of election.}

^{But Varanasi is a different story. For Congress Modi's defeat is a life or death issue. The only way it can save some face is by trying to 'look' and 'fight' as though it hoped for his defeat. If it surrenders to Kejriwal to do this job, you can forget congress ever forming any government anywhere. And if Congress and Modi fight seriously, Kejriwal will come out as a mouse crushed by two fighting elephants! I am sure and certain he would have given a thought to this and will find some reason or the other for NOT being a candidate in Varanasi!}
