Elections 2004: nothing new in phase 2

Posted by vivek | 29 Apr 2004, 10:39pm

Nothing new this time in elections. Not even in Uttar Pradesh. Even the modern version of booth capturing by breaking and fiddling with the electronic voting machines was onpredicted lines! Now that even second phase has come to end there is nothing much to contemplate. Looks like it is NDA again. Psephologists all over the nation have been talking of the new fad called anti-incumbency where the people would vote for a different party, other than the incumbent one.

Congress hoped the anti-incumbency  sentiment to settle on a nationwide scale. That does not seem to happen. If we go by the exit-poll results conducted by major TV news channels, we can expect BJP to grab atleast 52% share in the second phase.

 If BJP goes shopping for few more seats with-in the NDA ambit, we can expect an NDA government. Going by the projected figures on exit polls it appears that BJP along with their allies would still be short by 15

A micro-site on the world of Formula 1 racing. We had introduced this section because we felt the content on the main site was too monotonous with jargons only a business enthusiast would understand (atleast that is what people told us). Since, our audience is mainly novices in their field, probably in the age group of 18 to 30 we felt an addendum like this section would pump-in lot of fresh air. And it did!


Movies


We don't watch all these movies. We just use the reviews done by one of the finest websites we came across - www.fullhyd.com . These guys are good at what they do and we just cut and paste their reviews. We thank them for allowing us to use their reviews.


We plan to open many more addendums like these. If you have an idea do contact us.


Regards
