The TV channels want it. No Surprise there. Modi's name will send TRP thru the roof.
Kejriwal wants it. Again no surprise. With Modi's name pulling in the audience, it will allow him to get his message at no cost. Of course, if he comes off second best, that will be because the media has been purchased.
But why should Modi want it?
Large crowds turn up for his rallies. He has a team that is out in the field, getting his message across. What more reach can a TV debate get him?
Modi is directly addressing the voters. The voters are the real judges. The Congress and the APP too are making their pitch. There is already a 24 x 7 debate taking place across media, across the country. So why have a 60 minute TV "debate"? On voting day the people of Varanasi will decide who won the debate.
