As 2013 draws to a close, two people have come to dominate the
political landscape in India – Arvind Kejriwal of the Aam Aadmi
Party (AAP) and Narendra Modi of the BJP. Even though Modi
dominated the discourse for much of the earlier part of the year,
Kejriwal finished a nose ahead of Modi after December’s state
assembly elections. 2014 will continue to be about their covert
rivalry, even though Rahul Gandhi will get his share of the media.
The Gandhi scion has probably woken up a bit too late to make a
difference to the outcome in 2014, but Kejriwal has risen just in
time to rain on Modi’s party. This means the outcome in 2014 can
go in any direction
