Does the recent election to municipal corps in UP show a BJP come back with support of communal forces ?

No. The elected candidates are mostly those who contested as independent candidates. The voters are not going to be guided on communal or caste lines basing on which various political parties had given party tickets to candidates most of whom have lost even their deposit. It is a warning to the Samajbadi Party of Mulayam Singh Yadav who has been dependent on Muslim votes by appeasement to them.

I think ADMK. Dr. J. Jayalalitha has done a pretty decent job as CM in the last term. She has managed to compensate for the damage to the TN. treasury caused by DMK previously and she has brought Tamilnadu some national attention. I am not denying that like all politicians she also amassed a lot of wealth using her politacal influence - but it looks like she is finally satisfied with what she has and has truly begun using her powers for the benefit of the state. People are realizing this. She is politically stronger now than ever. She is more mature in her knowledge of dealing with opponents and tackling obstacles - I have no doubt that ADMK will be the ruling party after May 2006 elections.

When this Kichadi UPA government is tottering, under the weight of number of parties, how come, a national government, with leaders of opposite views, can be formed and expect it to deliver goods.\n\nThere are no states men, now a days, only politicians, who don't bother about the nation, but about themselves only.\n\nI think, this system will continue, because there is one party for each caste in India.. There are no principles involved, but only selfishness.

I agree with  The Guru®. \n\nVHP has done really good work in many areas inspite of financial restraints.Oherwise critics of VHP are politicaly motivated.  Shiva sena is a different thing and just a regional party. it behaves in the same way most of the times.\n\nBoth have some idiots who really have nothing to do but try to look important by acting out of line.\n\nBe vigilant that those elements do not cross the lines. \n\nHindus and Hindu organisations do not know how to handle media and PR in modern age. And pseudo secularsits are no good.

It is coalition politics. Sonia Gandhi who accused them as killers of Rajiv Gandhi, in cllusion with LTTE has accpted them as bed fellows for cheap political gain. This is politics! Of course, of Indian style.

Chennai has been the strong hold of DMK even in MGR regime. But now due to the good governance of Jayalalithaa in issues like Veeranam, Anti-Rowdyism, Post-Tsunami relief, Flood relief, etc, Chennai is no longer the strong hold of DMK. Also another important reason is that DMK president and CM Kalaignar speaches about Hindu religion and its customs really hurts the centiments of the youth who r no athiests.

Vote politics is the biggest disease which has brought Delhi on a surgery table. Congress has done nothing but has promised to do a lot as usual, are they going to do anything. It doesn't appears like that, still we have dream for a better future for poor Delhites and Indians in general. Betterment that too due to the action of government seems to be joke.

He Raam !\nWhat do you think the Bharatiya Janata Party has been doing for so long ?\nIn a Democracy, everyone has the right to propose any such sectarian and exclusive agendas - but it is still upto the Indian citizens to elect, or reject, such politicians !

Expecting any firm result is out of scope this time.\nit is going to be neck to neck.\nBut percentage in DMK votes may come down due to vijaykanth.\n\nWhoever comes we'll just hope that he does good.

George Fernandes has won the Muzaffarpur seat on four occasions, contesting from three different parties. In 1977, he won on the Bharatiya Lok Dal ticket(famously from behind bars), in 1980 it was the Janata Party (S) and in 1989 and 1991 he rode to victory on the Janata Dal bandwagon. \n\nHe later contested and won thrice on the Nalanda seat.\n\nHe was again elected for the fifth time from Muzaffarpur in 2004 with 7,84,100 or about 47.2% of the total votes.

This election in tamil nadu could b a very close one and i predict tamil nadu may get a hung assembly after a long time, ie after the first elections way back in 1952. There is no political wave today in tamil nadu which is usually present( 1991- Rajiv Gandhi sympathy wave, 1996- anti incumbency wave against Jayalalitha). \n  \n    Moreover the anti incumbency wave which was present against jayalalitha during lok shaba elections that saw her party lose all seats, is not such a big factor today. The reasons for that being her recall of all the controversial laws like anti conversion bill, etc. Her actions like free cycle for school students, Good relief for Tsunami and flood, Absence of Rowdisim and caste conflicts in Tamil Nadu has strengthened her case. She has also been strengthened by the alliance with MDMK of Vaiko.\n\n   Meanwhile the strong alliance, the angry of goverenment workers and muslims over ADMK, is what tilts the balance in favour of Karunathi led DMK. The arrival of actor turned politician Vijaykanth into the political arena has also caused few upsets in poll calculations. Though his party may not win too much seats he could end up making a dent in the vote share of both the dravidian parties. The fact that BJP is standing alone could crearte sort of worry for ADMK over its traditional Upper caste Votes.\n\nSince the election is so close, both the parties has started Announcing lot of promises like free colout tv, Free rice, etc. Vaiko's constant attack on Sun TV network run by brother of Union Broad casting minister Dayanithi Maran and his replies to it has also made the poll intresting. Comedy scenes of the poll are being provided by another actor turned politician Kartik, who has assumed office as state president of Forward Bloc.\n\nthis is how people are going to vote in elections\n\nVery rich/ upper middle class/ poor = AIADMK alliance\nMiddle class/ Workers/Goverenment staff= DMK alliance\n\nMY prediction\n\nAIADMK ALLIANCE = 130\nDMK ALLIANCE   = 103\nVIJAYKANTH PARTY= 01 or 02.

Can he beat Mr. Clean? Well, he can and he should. Sounds like he is the right personna for the moment in Kerala! So, many big-wigs failed in the UDF and he is instrumental in bringing their downfall. THey did nothing for the good of Kerala
