    ..No one know why RAHUL did yathra..Congress supporters definitely confused since he didnt attacked ruling SP Govt, instead he kept on accusing MODI..as per survey BSP is front runner, BJP is in 3rd position..RAHUL not even said one word against MAYAVATI whose rule saw a worst state of affairs!!..RAHUL should know that its regional parties like SP/BSP/APP which is eating his share of votes..If he didnt understand it, his party will be last in any coalition..as far as MODI is concerned, he is going strong day by day nationally/Internationally..whatever be the results in states Assembly elections, people want MODI to continue as PM in general elections..

    Jossey,
    These disturbances are created by "Contract groups" paid by the detractors of Congress party. They have disguised as Hooda supporters and Tanwas supporters. When the entire rally at UP was successful, why at the end, there was disturbances?
