1. Bogus Voting!
There has been extensive cases of bogus voting in the Kasaragod parliamentary constituency. The
Mathrubhoomi News channel has brought out video grabs from the polling booth in AUP School
at the Pilathara segment. Six people have been captured by the camera's eye and one of them
happens to be a panchayat member belonging to the CPM.
The election commission had installed close circuit television in all the booths which have brought
out the sordid story. A video grab, even, shows a lady being administered the indelible ink on her
forefinger which she immediately rubs on her hair and on the consequence disappearance of the
mark, she returns for voting yet again!
The election commission has to take immediate remedial action.
And the CPM has all along been crying wolf in that the electronic voting machines are erratic and
helps the BJP, in particular. Well, Sitaram Yechury needs to do a lot of answering!
2. Rahul Talks About Farmer's Budget.
Rahul Gandhi, at an election rally, has told that his government will bring out an 'Agricultural
Budget' before the General Budget. He has also promised that Anil Ambani and Nirav Modi will
be put behind bars if his party came to power!
Interesting!
3. Shatrughan Sinha's Gaffe!
At an election rally in Chindwara of Madhya Pradesh, Shatrughan Sinha while canvasing for
Kamal Nath's son said that Mohammed Jinnah was a Congressman. He later said that it was a
slip of the tongue.
His BJP background cannot be wished away, I suppose!
4. Gautam Gambhir Pulled Up.
He's the BJP's candidate from the East Delhi constituency. On 26 Apr, he'd campaigned for the
Jhangpura's BJP candidate without obtaining the Election Commission's permission and has
initiated a case in this regard.
Well, such mistakes are unacceptable!
Tailpiece.
Getting up around a half past 3, early in the morning and then, sleep refusing to return has become a regular feature these days. Consequently, I recite my prayers and on completion, sleep would have beckoned me.
Had got up at our usual time, opened up the house and put on the devotional music. We were ready well in time and left for the Akhil-Aswathy wedding at a half past 10. Wished the couple many happy returns and returned. Enroute, we'd picked up gifts from the mall, for Mini in view of her birthday on the 2nd of May and another for Chippy's new born child. We headed straight for my cousin, Soman's house and draped the ceremonial shawl around his wife, Prasanna who's retiring this month-end.
There were power interruptions galore in anticipation of the heavy rains, forecast for the evening!
