Indian Elections 2009

Its time for the greatest festival of the largest democracy in the world. Yes, its the time for the elections to the country's democratic body, the Lok Sabha. Its the summer heat that adds up to the soaring political temperatures in the country. This time the elections seemto be fought more on personality clashes with the BJP's PM candidate, Mr. L.K.Advani, taking the present PM and the UPA candidate, Dr.Manmohan Singh heads on.

There have been already breakages of past alliances and creation of new alliances. Shifting of loyalties of political parties across the length and breadth of the country depending on various factors. So the festival is truly well and on...

The elections which are going to be held across 5 phases concludes on 13th May 2009 and a week after that the results would be out when the next "tournament" of government formation would begin.

Let me stop here for now and would continue to reflect my thoughts of course in the most apolitical manner at regular intervals.
