Controversial guru's muscle and mayhem: Has Haryana government surrendered?

It was a day of assault and anarchy in Hisar, where the Haryana government failed to arrest murder-accused controversial guru Rampal. Instead, the police beat media personnel, including six NDTV journalists. On 'The Buck Stops Here', we discuss the unholy nexus of politicians and controversial gurus. Has the new Haryana government failed in its first big test?

Open to national platform which includes Left: Mamata Banerjee to NDTV

Mamata Banerjee, the Chief Minister of West Bengal, told NDTV today that she is willing to join a coalition that includes her arch rival, the Left, if the Congress takes the initiative to form the group. Ms Banerjee, who in 2011 ended the Left's 34-year-long run in Bengal, made it clear that an understanding with the Left would not extend to her home state. "I am ready to be part of a national platform which includes the Left to fight communalism. This is not the same as an alliance in West Bengal, we will fight alone there," the 59-year-old leader said.

In Punjab, it's government by the people, for a family: Navjot Singh Sidhu to NDTV

The Akali Dal has lodged an official complaint with the BJP to "tame" former MP Navjot Singh Sidhu after he took a swipe at the BJP's alliance partner, saying, "For them, it is only 10 per cent sewa and 90 per cent 'mewa'." Speaking to NDTV, Mr Sidhu said he never mentioned anybody's name, and it is for the Akali Dal to answer why they feel they are in the category of those who are looting and plundering Punjab. He said that BJP workers were unhappy with the alliance with Akali Dal and in Punjab it was "government by the people, but for a family".
