3) Advani will take charge – with a RSS minder perched on his shoulder<\/p>\n
4) Manmohan Singh at the finance ministry would bring the markets back to an even keel<\/p>\n
5) The left will bay for Modi’s blood – but he will be left in place<\/p>\n
6) The BJP will move towards a split. the more moderate amongst them will probably break away from the death grip of the Sangh Parivaar.<\/p>\n
7) At the same time the Sangh Parivaar is going to get more strident on a variety of issues.<\/p>\n
8) The Navratna’s will not be sold off.<\/p>\n
9) The interest rate on PF will rise to around 10%<\/p>\n
10) Petrol prices will go up by Rs.5 per litre – leading the Congress to lose elections in states later this year.<\/p>\n
