Turmoil Nadu...er, Tamil Nadu!

IIPM BEST B-SCHOOL
The first phase of elections were held in 45 municipalities, 281 town panchayats and 195 panchayat unions. Jayalalitha accused DMK workers of bogus polling and rigging. Karunanidhi retaliated by accusing the opposition of instigating violence during the first phase of the local elections. Factually, violence, booth capturing and rigging marred the Chennai Municipal Corporation elections, although allegedly rigged places, like the Tuticorin district, where poll turnout was 61%, had Collectors like R. Palaniyandi denying any allegation of bogus polling. He asserted, “The verification revealed that ballot papers used in the poll process commensurate with the total votes polled in the Ward.” And now, with Ramadoss’ PMK breaking out of the DMK alliance on October 30, 2006, Karunanidhi would only improve upon the strategy he used to win the previous elections – inanely giving away freebies at the cost of the exchequer. Perhaps he doesn’t realize that even states with 100% literacy (like Kerala) have gone bankrupt on the back of such similar measures. And it wouldn’t take Tamil Nadu that long to capitulate. But hey, who cares, now let’s give them all trips to Switzerland, shall we?
