Predictions go awry
Naomi, Dept of law, DU
At last the Congress is back. They have won. Priyanka and Rahul's charisma has worked and Sonia Gandhi is going to be the next prime minister . This result has signified:1.People were indifferent towards Sonia's foreign origin, through voting for Sonia they have shown their moderate views. 2.Rahul and Priyanka's campaign has attracted people towards the Congress. Their image resembles the image of Indira Gandhi and Rajib Gandhi. It has shown the family's highly respectable position in Indian politics . 3. Vajpayee and his party's rejection has proved that religion cannot be a long lasting issue in a country like India having a secular image. 4.Though in the BJP period technology improved, but people with low incomes suffered . Despite all the surveys, opinions in favour of the BJP, the Congress and its allies have won the hearts of people. People have shown their love for peace, religious tolerance and also have given a silent message to their neighbours a) Use your intelligence and consciousness in selecting your representatives, not your religious prejudice. b) Don't let the people remain in power who don't think of the people who have brought them to power.
