Polls

Around 70% sites that I am visiting are full of the 'LK Advani for PM' advertisement.
It is actually a great step forward by the NDA to address the indian netizens for the polls.
I wonder how many Indians do actually have access to the internet and the luxury to idle away their time and money on sites like youtube.
The color combination of the advertisement is quite catchy and poll-oriented.
Also , can this media , for the Indians described above , be effective in garnering votes for the NDA.
What was surprising was that on youtube , the same ad is on the videopage that has the Jai-Ho camapaign of the UPA.
And what is equally disguting about the Jai-Ho campaign are the frames in which students are shown waving their degrees as if they were just pieces of paper.
As if all those so-called welfare movements that were inititated in the quinquenial period were just a political gimmick and for the sake of education being a few pieces of paper to be waved.

They think what Obama was able to do in US, they can replicate it here. This internet craze is also a response to the Jaagore Campaign which asks this young gen (who are the maximum users of internet)to vote. The only change you might see will be on the city aside. I am pretty sure this new generation of voters will make a difference. At least, I hope so.
