Udupi Bypoll - After Camels, Turn of Giant LCD Screens!
Daijiworld Media Network - Udupi
Udupi, Mar 16: The Udupi-Chikmagalur bypoll campaign has seen it all - camels, cine stars, pamphlets raking up alleged criminal pasts, and what not. When every trick in the bag is being tried, can technology be far behind?
The Congress party, perhaps in a bid to show it is tech-savvy and 'with the times' set up a giant LCD screen mounted on a vehicle.
The LCD displays a documentary of the achievements of Congress, the development works it has undertaken over the years, together with its entire history.
Strangely enough, the vehicle has Andhra Pradesh registration number.
The mobile LCD has been making the rounds of the entire Udupi, catching the attention of the amused people.
On the other hand, on Thursday March 15, BJP stepped up its campaign by distributing pamphlets digging out a murder case in which Congress candidate J P Hegde's name had been involved. The pamphlets evoked a mixed reaction from the public.
