Regional parties at centre

So this is it, the third front.. which is under storm and speculation has atlast emerged, unlike the divided stand during the presidential elections, this time around hope this third front has meaning in its formation, on and after the mega elections that are coming up... The key states are the uttar pradesh, tamilnadu, Andra and karnataka that are going to either be a spoil sport or the king makers in the elections this time.
Coming to tamilnadu, Its the famous J.J who is going to lead the 3rd front.but as every one knows about the mood swings of amma, the Left will be always be at the mercy of Amma. Since JJ was called very causualy to the dinner party at Mayavathi's home at delhi, she refused to even send a representative to the dinner, let alone she not turning up. so the strength of the Third front is questinable. If jaya's ADAMK wins comfortably, atleast 20 to 25 seats this time, then she would be in a poweful place to demand at centre and could be a queen maker in deciding the government that is to be formed. Though she is trying too hard to woo the PMK and the DMDK, one have to wait and see how the political alliance will form in TN, elections still two months away in TN we never know what will happen ..
In andra the situation is still in agreat dilamma after the praja rajyam has come into the political fray, One has to wait and see which party's vote Chiranjeevi is going to split....since they have both the state and the central elections, what lies in the mind of the andra voter is a billion dollar question.
In karnataka, Deva Gowda is looking very bad and BJP is looking for another sweep, but after the manglore incidents, minority communities like christians and churches being on constant attack and the famous rama sena which has tarnished the state's secural image,Cong and deva gaowda will be looking to score again...
In the Uttar pradesh, where mayavathi had a thumping victory 2 years back, people will be wooed right , left and centre will all kinds of soaps and projecting her as a national leader, the UP people may even get lucky to have the Prime minister from their state.. ut after some defaming murder investgations and corruption charges, the middle and upper cate vostes should follow the same trail as it was 2 years ago fot mayavathi's cental aspiration to become the PM.
The dices have rolled, and the politicians are moving their coins, but who will emegre and who will be the outcome is in the hands of the poor voter, for election after election with some hope he/she stands in a long que to vote to see the diffrence.. and with the regional parties playing so hard this time.. who knows the lady luck may smile..pushing the national parties to a corner. Any ways we will keep guessing till 16th may....

VOTE INDIA VOTE

The battle lines are drawn and the dates are set and as usual the media predicts yet another hung parliment, so the winner is going to be who ever crosses the 200 mark this time. though NDA lost out by mere 6 seats last time, the mirror image is quite possible this time too...
with 1,200 crore rupess at stake for this 2 months election hungama(a lot more than a year long US elections), the trp ratings of the news channels are going to soar sky high. And for the delight of the people, the results are to be out on a saturday (16th may) so every TV in the house of the billion people will be busy broadcasting the big winner....
The Democracy of our nation is so stong, even after all the lies, bad performancecs, unkept promises, undone election manifestos.. the politicians who are bravehearted get ready to face the people for votes. Unlike the US where the system to elect the president goes in a very systamatic and wonderful way, here we lack the basic decency of the parties even to apper together for a open debate... just imagine karunanidi and jayalalitha on the same stage in a healthy debate... its not going to happen any ways...
But as a responsible citizens, it's our duty to cast the vote and then talk about the govenment's function . the poor and the middle class always makes it a point to stand in the Que and vote, its the upper middle class, bussiness class and aristrocrats who enjoy most of the benifits sit at home and enjoy the holiday....lets be the change...lets make the democracy more powerful, lets not feel lazy to go and vote... some body casting ur vote is equal to some one reading your personal diary... VOTING IS YOUR BIRTH RIGH, THE RIGHT TO PROVE YOU ARE THE CITIZEN OF THIS NATION AND RESPONSIBLE FOR THE COUNTRY"S GROWTH.....so mark the dates and get ready to vote to elect the 15th lok shaba for our betterment.
