Muslms & chrstans are terrorsts
by vidhu on May 01, 2009 01:31 AM  | Hide replies

All chrstans are murdrers.
Any thing good they do is only a bait.
Chrstans, muslms, skhs & jews are similar.
Chrstan priests bribe terrorsts like LTTE, maoists & naxals
to murdr non-chrstans.

who is middle class ?
by jimmy joseph on May 01, 2009 01:02 AM  | Hide replies

who got favors from 'Indian National Congress' through reserve for 'UPLIFT',who later forgot the 'Blessing in Disguise' for worldly lust and narrow at Heart.
These forces are not traditional or progressive either ,just selfish.

They didn't find confused advani a 'DOER for them',more trusted on second fiddle 'modi'.

Thats why these mads didn't vote.

anyhow 'INC' got it share to 'UPLIFT' the needy also educate a New Middle CLASS ,where Humanity is part of 'EVERYBODY' S Life.

Election card with ID must be sufficient
by Krishnan R on May 01, 2009 12:53 AM  | Hide replies

Everybody who has a valid election card with a valid ID to identify them must be allowed to vote.
Fingerprinting must be used to validate a person. Also it is a good time to get fingerprinting of people coming in for voting. If goondas and criminals come, their fingerprinting can also be taken. This can be had in national secured database. Such database can help trace and solve criminal cases.
Innocents does not have to fear giving their fingerprints and criminals will be kept away from polling booths if they do not want their fingerprints to be in national database.

i was the presiding officer this time too. there were around 870 voters who cast their votes in my polling station. but i asked my team not to ask for any type of identity from the voters. the election commission like the UGC makes slutty laws which are not practicable.

Your name in electoral list
by Swaminathan Subramanian on May 01, 2009 12:44 AM  | Hide replies

Yes, many people could not vote because their name was not there though they had previously voted many times. This is not a new problem in Mumbai/Maharashtra, the premier city of India. Mumbai is cosmopolitan, the administration still struggles with names and address. Many co-voters complained why Government of Maharashtra could not recruit literate staff as those who make it neither know, Hindi or English nor Marathi even. Or the whole exercise is all manipulation. Who is going to find out and rectify things? I am afraid it will never be here as it is their pride!

bottomline is india is not ready for democratic govt. it'll take another 80 years or so. why not bring east india company back. indians become manageable only if their butts are kicked by white masters.

Stern, your "solution" has already been adopted and implemented by the UPA!

The collective posteriors of UPA's rank and file are very well "mobilized" by a White albeit Italian "Mastress"!

All that remains to be done is getting the non-UPA to do the same and we should heaven on earth soon!!

If this is the attitude towards democracy
by mammen antony on May 01, 2009 12:43 AM  | Hide replies

Let us take a decision that Democracy can not bring forth any good for the citizens, we will switch over to Military Rule or Autocracy. Remember the apathy towards democratic process is the symptom of the fatal decease our neighbour has been afflicted with.And it is matter of days before it can disintegrate and vanish.Choice is yours

BLAME IT ON EC
by jas on May 01, 2009 12:30 AM  | Hide replies

I feel the EC should be blamed for this entire fiasco . I feel EC in coordination with rulling congress - ncp government manage all this show . The date of 30 th april thusrsday is very much surprisable. Thursday holiday , 1 may - friday -maharashtra day again holiday follwed by saturday ,sunday . What is more needed for Mumbaikars who needs break and go out on travel that is what EC and rulling government needed other wise anti incombancy 26/11 would have wiped out Congress-Ncp .
I sincerely feels that 29 april -wednesday and we could have seen more voting than today .
But our prime agency dosent want educated public to vote so what can we do .

success, please let them be! They are tired!

And you would be too if you had to chase third-rate bollywood actors and Nth-rate Indian politicians all day!

You can think of it as a "prediction" by this publication or an UPA dream - to have those fanatical animals running around "imposing" a "higher" will (of UPA) on the masses!

Everybody in the UPA would be ecstatic if someone could "make" every single Indian bow down to the Maharani Italiano like they do!!

My accusing finger at EC
by mammen antony on May 01, 2009 12:21 AM

It is the babus again creating havoc in the Election process too. The primary reasons for the low turn out
1. EC has not provided yet a common website where I can confirm my name,polling booth
5% of the total Mumbai Electrorate just did not want to just run inthe 40 degree C from poll to pillar.They just slept the day through .10% of the total voters thus just slept at the cost Govt.
2.Even the Govt.employees name have been missing from the list, and waas summarily send back(nearly 8% to 10% of the total electorate of Mumbai) the ulterior motive of the EC is yet not known.
3.The most Uncooperative anti-Indian attitude of the Corporate sector, who literally disallowed a leave for their employees to vote must have reduced the voter turn out by another 5%
5.EC did not use their brains in fixing the date of the poll.Govt.employees and certain Corporate employees literally got a wind fall of continuous 4 days leave to enjoy , and they packed and went out, and it amounts another 10%( it includes those who are normally on a trip to their Native places around this time of the year)EC could have atleast fix the poll date on Tuesady 28 April, the damage would have been lesser)
Now almost 35% of Non-Voters have been accounted and the rest 15% is perpetual defaulters, means they are beyond redemption.There is nothing like Anti-incumbancy, anger towards power, or dislike for democracy, or polarisation of voters etc as made out by Jethmalani.
