Fun during this election season

Sunday, 10 November 2013

After years of dedicated research, I have come up with this finding.
The number of accusations made by a political party is inversely proportional to the number of days left to the elections
There is negative relationship among these two variables. Lesser the days left, more will be the intensity of allegations, no just the increase in number of allegations. Most of the time, increase is not linear but exponential one.

Why politicians need to this?
  • During this crucial phase, politicians want to be in news in one way or the other.
  • Voters are influenced 'more' by the 'recent' image of the politicians, so there is a need to showcase a clean image.
  • Politicians suddenly become available to the media. They start to respond to every charges & throw counter-charges on opponents.
What public will get out of these exchanges?
Public will be immensely benefited with the war of words. They will get the following.
  • Innovative ways to criticize others
  • How to find fault in others, in all of their actions?
  • How to lie? If got caught, then how to lie again to cover the lies?
  • New abusive words on daily basis
This makes the whole election process a fun filled one. So, get ready for some heated exchanges during this chilling winter.

Exit Polls banned

Saturday, 9 November 2013

Congress is very happy, they got what they wanted. But Sanjay Jha may not be that much happy. Why? Because all his his holiday plans are scrapped, no? No more boycotting the debates for the sake of opposing them. But I feel sorry again for the viewers. Never mind it, viewers. When you can't escape from viewing the debates enjoy it!
After this decision on exit polls, EC got one more major work. Now it's going to review Modi's Khooni Panja  remarks. Yes, yes, EC is very busy nowadays. If EC keeps getting such a workload, days are not far when they need separate courts & rapid action lawyers. Ha ha, one more thing they need to do now: to review Rahul Gandhi's response. That's a very difficult job because for that, first they need to read his entire letter no?
In other news, AAP is going to start Jhadu chalao Mehengai hatao in Delhi. I fail to understand how Jhadu chalao can reduce the inflation? Some Jadui jhadu or what? May be who knows?
Or it can so be that, by Jhadu chalo there will be a cleaner city. Cleaner city means more attraction, more investment, more production and lesser inflation. Where is my Nobel Prize?

See you tomorrow, till then get me a Nobel Prize.


Opinion polls & poor Congress

Thursday, 7 November 2013

Congress hates opinion polls.
That's what the Congress said in their reply to Election Commission. And it's not a rocket science to understand that Congress doesn't hate opinion polls, but it hates opinion polls which show Congress losing. Practically no-one wants to hear the criticism, that to repeatedly. It's a human tendency to stop it or, at best try to avoid it. And Congress is trying both. Boycotting the debate & complaining to EC. What else can Congress do, man? Polls after polls BJP was projected as the winner, unless the survey is conducted by AAP. AAP through its very transparent mechanism ensured that it wins. Yes, it is also understandable if AAP doesn't win in its own poll, then why would they make it public, no?

Coming back to Congress, Sanjay Jha has been the face saver for them on TV, night after night he is trying to defend the indefensible. Though he himself loses his face many times, but tries to save Congress's face. Never mind his logic, he tries his best to spin any argument on its head and hijack the whole argument, turning it into a mess. Looking at Jha's such special abilities, handling the debates on opinion polls would not been hard for him. Somehow Congress felt it's better to boycott such debates on opinion polls. In other words, whenever there are debates on opinion polls, Sanjay Jha can have rest. Though during such resting holidays, Jha surely will watch Arnab's show. Feeling relaxed & not at all threatened by Arnab's loud voice, for the first time. Happy holidaying Mr. Jha. We won't miss you.

Congress is a giant party, Jairam opined. So what if there are no spokespersons on TV to defend Congress? There are so many journalists who can do that job. On some channels, even such journalists are also not required, anchors are sufficient. All these mean, Congress's decision of boycotting won't harm the party, much. But this decision would definitely save millions of viewer's from Sanjay Jha.
I am not sure, how we all can thank Congress for this ground breaking decision.

Modi hitting the nail on head, Congress searching hammer

Sunday, 3 November 2013


Though Modi is provoking Rahul, he is not ready to take on Modi. Leave alone taking on Modi, he is not ready to take Modi's name also. As we all know, to rescue the first family there is no scarcity of leaders in Congress. There, some are ready to pick up a broom & sweep, some are ready to die for Sonia. It seems Congress leaders are more loyal to first family than to nation.
When Modi is making fun of Rahul, all leaders are trying to defend Rahul by criticizing Modi. Though they are somehow managing this attack from Modi, but this strategy won’t help them for too long. Unless Rahul responds directly, his image will never improve. Because those who are questioned should answer not their loyalists.
In responding, at-least Nitish Kumar is doing it better than Rahul, though he failed miserably in providing the security to Patna rally. Whether Rahul takes on Modi or he will continue to be on defensive, time will tell. But Modi seems to be in no mood to reduce his attack.
