Pollscape 2012


Tweet of the Day

Shoddy turbans and wrinkled pyjamas will not impress the masses any more. They have understood Badal's politics of hypocrisy and deception.

Itinerary of the Day

After the assembly election dates were announced last month, all the star campaigners in Uttar Pradesh have hit the campaign trail, except the BSP. BSP supemo and Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh Mayawati will begin her election campaign in the state from Feburary 1 by addressing a public meeting in Sitapur district. She will also address a public meeting in Barabanki on the same day. The CM had earlier planned to begin her election campaign from Bijnore district on January 27.

Violation of the Day

The District Administration of Jalandhar, Punjab, has served a second notice on the Akali Dal candidate from Majitha assembly constituency, Bikram Majithia, for allegedly using a helipad and travelling by a helicopter without informing election authorities .

Cat Fight of the Day

UPA allies Congress and Trinamool Congress will cross swords in the Manipur Assembly polls with both parties putting up 60 and 47 candidates respectively. While Congress is contesting in all the seats, this will be the first time that Trinamool is entering the assembly poll fray in a big way.

Scam of the Day
The Election Commissions crackdown on candidates using black money in electioneering has forced politicians to come up with innovative methods to ensure the much needed finance. Two ATM vans belonging to two private banks were seized in poll-bound Uttar Pradesh last week by Income Tax officials with nearly Rs.13 crore cash. The cash is now lying unclaimed for the last four days. So far the EC has siezed Rs.26.8 crore in UP, Rs.8.7 crore in Punjab and Rs. 42 lakh in Uttarakhand.
