[Reader-list] Election Forecast

[bipin]

Dear All.

People verdict is final and one should accept gracefully. The point raised 
that PM is not elected is right. But, he personally is good man and that 
appeals to the people.

Also sign of maturity by public to elect main national party and that way 
avoiding black mailing from pseudo-secularists like left, lalu, paswan, 
mayavati, mulayam and so many. With majority lots of money will be saved, 
which was going to hand of this much more corrupt people.

NREGA was not congress baby really it was imposed by left, but even left 
lost heavily. RTI was ongoing process and initiated earlier by NDA. Please 
refer parliament proceedings you will come to know.

Still I believe that NREGA will prove failure in the near future. No one in 
politics has long vision and they want to gain short coverings only and many 
people will not understand immediately. Time will prove it. Wait n watch. 
For long development, root infrastructural development is the only better 
solution.

thanks
Bipin
