A Ray of Hope amidst this DEMOCRATIC CHAOS.

Y'day the poll results were announced for four state assemblies and one parliamentary constituency(RAIBARELI). The results pretty much reveal the state of democracy in the country. In Raibareli, Sonia Gandhi won with a record margin and she gave the credit to Rahul, a legitimate way to bring the scion of Gandhi family in the mainline politics. Another chapter of dynastic rule to usher in sometime in future in India, RAHUL is our "Would be PM candidate". Thats one sad chapter of Indian democracy where we still have the hangover of colonial period with allegiance towards a family rather than ideals.

In other states we saw people giving demigod status to politicians, polls have become more of power show and an arena to settle personal scores.

Amidst all these chaos, there was a glint of hope in TamilNadu. PARITRANA, a party formed by IITIANS' bagged 10K and 12K votes in two constituencies. Though they didnt win any seats, but getting sizeable votes vindicates the spirit of revolution against the philistine establishment. This goes in a long way to show that hope is only thing which has kept has afloat till date.

We hope to see many such success stories in coming times.
