    Those who say Ramotsava is happening during election, but for your poor knowledge would like to say that this happens every year not only during election time.

    what about Samajothsava, elections are nearby and BJP is on the verge of collapse, to revive their votebank grand samajothsva at managlore, udupi and kundapur should have planed to exploit the religion to gain out of that and bring some enimity between the communities by throwing some stones on place of worships of other communities and I wonder why not happend this time. if not how they can bringout thier frustration on other communities as the people sitting here on stage who brinwash the poor guys form lowers casts and never send thier kids in the front lines.
