I have no interest in politics, yet I was kinda surprised to see the 3-woman-syndrome shattered. along with failure of laloo. i knew modi wd win in gujarat, and mp being bjp was no surprise. felt very happy with congress winning hands down in delhi! rajasthan was surprising too. wonder whats in store for maharashtra. totally agree with you about the communal image of bjp keading to its defeat, and stability and building the nation image of congress giving it the edge. all in all interesting results, though i was pretty sure congress wd win. and i wanted congress too. last but not the least, kudos to teh jaago re campaign for making more people go out and vote.Sugar & Spicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00370503743210911022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30114923.post-71403625601028867862009-05-22T09:42:17.708+05:302009-05-22T09:42:17.708+05:30@alok: thanks.

The final...Long long post but was worth the read :)<br />The final verdict seems to have dashed a lot of high hopes and brought a lot of high-flying people to ground. The most noticeable aspect of the final result is that the Congress party is again finding acceptance amongst the voters in UP (the state with the highest numbers in Lok Sabha) which reflects well for Indian Democracy.<br />On a side note, Shashi Tharoor won.

Secondly, promises made by BJP, like waiver of loans given to farmers, subsidized food etc can only have negative impact in the long run. Already, and this I can say from personal experience, farmers - even those who are capable of repaying, have stopped considering repayment of loans taken from nationalized banks, as sooner or later government writes it off!!<br /><br />As you correctly mentioned, many unworthy candidates had to bite dust. All that remains to be seen is whether UPA is able to deliver in this term or not.Gaganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15595362211699594809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30114923.post-48003559594137709452009-05-17T15:10:00.000+05:302009-05-17T15:10:00.000+05:30nice insightful post yet again...though i think yo...nice insightful post yet again...though i think you voted for the other party :P<br />chal abhi thoda sa books pe bhi meherbaan ho jaao :)Rohan Mahajanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10856352587456456365noreply@blogger.com
