2006 Assembly Elections - Liar Liar

Time for political parties to forget the promises made in earlier election and come up with "innovative", unrealistic yarns that goes a long distance. A sample of the promises made by DMK ...

  • Rice for Rs. 2 a kilo

  • Colour TV set for downtrodden people

  • cooking Gas connection for downtrodden


  • No real meaning and conviction in what to say - this is like 'spin a yarn' competition. Our new entrant in the fray, Mr.Captain Vijayakanth is promising to build a new city that will replace Chennai and overcome the problems of basic infrastructure. After speaking lengthy and boring dialogs in films, he is now making them as election promises.

    All political parties should remember that 'Action always speak louder than words'. All your promises looks like the saying 'Empty vessels make more noise'. Do something first and people will automatically believe you than talking which you have been doing for ages.

    To all the people who read this article - CAN THE PARTIES BE TAKEN TO COURT OR SUSPENDED IF THEY DON'T IMPLEMENT THE PROMISES MADE? This will make them more accountable.

    Late reaction, but nevertheless shows how frustrated the Indian Electorate is. Politics has always been a MONEY-MAKING profession (oopss, I really dont know if I can call it that way), but today it has fallen to such great lows that I can't but just say

    "GOD SAVE INDIA"

    Check out my vent of feelings at this election gimmick at Atrocious Politics, Irresponsible Media...
