Hi, 
Friends Its Voting time!!!!!The politicians are at it again trying to fool the people . For 50 years the Congress did it and now its The Government(BJP) trying to lure the so called Minority. But i feel they are going to fall with this step because they were able to come to power by making belive that they are diffrent from congress as they care for the majority also and not only for minority.

I remmeber somewhere there was a Question on this list that why there are so less people who come to vote during votes is it because they dont understand thier duty or care less about using thier voting rights. I would say its because there is one column missing on the ballot paper if This column is included in the ballot paper than i am sure that the voting turn out should be above 80 percent and the column is :: NONE OF ABOVE ::. Many of the people i know who dont go to vote is because they find it folish to vote for any party because they know that all the party are chors(thieves) in one sence or the other. and by voting they are giving the rights to loot them from one chor to other.

Bye,
Azim.b

New Delhi, Aug 3  
   

Deputy Prime Minister Lal Krishna Advani urged workers of BJP to court minorities and lower castes ahead of crucial Assembly polls next year and national elections in 2004. 

Addressing a day-long party national council meet in the capital, Advani said it was important to consolidate the partys position among the electorate. 

"You have to reach out to the the minorities and the lower caste people and impress upon them that the BJP understands them and they are not vote banks," Advani said. 

"Ours is not just another party. It is a party with difference... Ours is not a party but a nationalist movement," he added. 

The national council meet comes almost a month after Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee made sweeping changes to his cabinet and at the same time revamped his party, appointing a new president and other office bearers. 

The changes were made to rejuvenate the party ahead of the Assembly polls next year and national elections in 2004. 

The BJP suffered humiliating defeats in polls in five states last year and four this year, reducing the number of states it rules to four. 

The Congress party controls 14 states now. 

Saturdays meeting is aimed at drawing up a strategy to galvanise its members ahead of crucial polls in Kashmir in September and nine other states next year, media reports said. 

More than 1,200 delegates, including Chief Ministers of four BJP-controlled states, are attending the meeting.
