    Some like Deepak, Nagesh, Krishna, Ramesh are indeed ill formed what really constitutes development. For them if their back yard is concreted it constitutes development. Perhaps they are not aware that the ADB loan for drainage and concreting etc. expires in Dec. 2009 if not utilized. Any govt. must work and needs to be booted if not working. But you folks could not forward one good reason why Monmohan and his team should be dislodged other than Manmohan "weak" "pitable" and Advani "Majbooth" "decesive", negative full page advt. of Bombay terror attacks, cheap news clips, just to capture votes at the cost of somebody''s blood, clips on Security when the nation was most insecure under the BJP regime.

    Remember Parliament attacks, Kargil, Communal riots, Mob violence, you name it and it was all there. Congress of course has also a share of the blame. But that''s when the nation understood the designs of BJP and Advani was shown the door where as Karnataka voters fell for the bait of Yedduirappa''s development of little concrete patch work here little there, "denial of NSG and IIT" by the center, step motherly treatment, conversions and terrorism. In not so distant future the very people who voted the BJP will realize the BJP''s insincerity of fooling the Karnataka electorate. Yeddi may shortly start getting nightmares when his operation KAMAL turns into operation HAND.
