India election 2009 results: for me – a mixture of surprise, sadness and feel good factor somewhere inside

Saturday, May 16th, 2009

Let me straight come to all the three things i mentioned

I am not here to defend my views here, just to express what i feel.

There were lots of things in my mind due to which i was feeling very heavy so thought if i will put it here it will make me feel better.

Surprise:

  1. How can congress get so many seats(Cause i personally cant find anything impressive enough in the congress lead government, On the other hand in 2004 when NDA after doing so many impressive things during in its rule, lost the election).
  2. Left lost badly(Good for India specially WB)
  3. BSP got very less compared to what everyone was expecting (its more of a feel good rather then surprise still, you cant ignore it as a surprise)
  4. SP got way more seats then what i was expecting (Looks like SP supporters specially Yadav’s and Muslims are not in favor or computers and English)
  5. In Gujraat Congress got 10 seets (May be the 2002 riots ghost will never stop hunting the Modi, and once peoples who got roti, kapda, makan, bijli and pani, they didn’t bothered to come and vote now, and the voters who still judge modi on 2002 riots, for which he got clean chit from SC, came there to vote against him )

Sadness:

  1. Congress will come to the power
  2. India lost a great chance to be lead under Advani( who was the best choice for PM according to me)
  3. Media again blamed BJP to be communal, States where BJP had never got power, Peoples still don’t know what is development means, Cause the politics in those state is still caste and religion based. This may sound very hard to many of you but the reality is which ever state BJP came to power (except UP), the agenda for fighting election got changed forever, it’s development rather then  caste and religion( Opposition will always will fight on same communal and secular agenda where they will refer bjp as communal ), still peoples call BJP a communal party and Congress a secular party (Where prime minister says: Muslims has first right on Indian resources)
  4. Journalism in India is as money making business rather then a social service. Its  more like of decisive then neutral, means it will give its own verdict rather then putting it from each and every angle. They had started making and creating breaking news rather then showing a news.

Feel Good Some where inside:

  1. An stable government, which will not have any excuse now for  not performing (and I am sure it won’t, why is an over all different question ), Still my best wishes to UPA and hope that it will be a 5 year full term with some great achievements.
  2. A little hope for UP and WB-but i will still count it as a big hope for Utter Pradesh that the next election will be more of a kind a little star in  a dark and cloudy night, which may not remove the darkness which had grabbed UP since SP and BSP had started ruling this stat. Last time something good i remember in UP was the Kalyan singh’s( I don’t remember why he left bjp or why bjp left him) decision for anti nakal , which not so obviously for everyone backfired for BJP there after SP promise to remove it. Now I can hope that the next time either it will be BJP or congress who comes in power there which will definitely  be much much better than SP(who want to ban computers and English) and BSP(they are just interested in making India another Rome with a difference that Rome with Mayawati statues).
  3. All the states which fought election  on development in their states irrespective of the party, got more seats.
  4. BJP had to think about there approach to voters( which i believed was always ignorant to anti BJP media), Till now BJP was thinking that they can win election just on development and good governance now they will definitely realize they need there media representative( Some channels and news papers), as that is the only way to reach all the voters with their ideology and agenda(Election Rally’s aren’t something that every voter goes to ist the news papers and channels which can make and break there faith in a party). Its only the media who made difference in 2004 and 2009 election, one cant ignore media now, its one of the pillars of democracy

Jai Ho Indian Voter (Which dosen’t include me cause i never voted, And now i feel really same,that why didnt I).
