A Note of Appreciation  

Posted by Ram in

at this moment to the EC (Election Commission) of India for having successfully conducted this show so successfully. It is a "thankless job" with the media highlighting only the stray Incidents and the flaws. 


But I feel it is time that we recognize their great work. To conduct elections in a fair and free manner in a country which has a good chunk of Illiterate population and a vast majority of Rural population and constantly under the threat of terrorism and Naxalism is nothing short of marvellous and Incredible.

Just Contrast this against what happened in the USA ( the world's oldest democracy and the most developed nation in the world) some years back when there was a huge confusion on who won the Race ( Al Gore or George Bush) and the drama went on for close to a week with no one sure of what was happening and we are bound to appreciate the great work of the Election Commission.

I would like to convey my heartfelt congratulations to all people who have been Involved in this process. Election Commission has made sure that Democracy is still very much alive in India and they deserve a huge round of applause for it.

Well movin on to the show itself, lots of questions are about to be answered, Can Jayalalitha emerge as a King Maker? Will Mayavati's aspirations be fulfilled? Can Chandrababu Naidu make a comeback? Can Modi weave his magic again? Will Advani's dream be fulfilled? or Is Sonia Gandhi going to wield power again? Well just 3 more days and I will be back in 3 days time for my take on the results.
