The news coming out from the 3 states that went to polls is not good. Left was expected to sweep Bengal and Kerela, but i was hoping that Amma returns to Tamilnadu. Not that i like her. Just that she is a better option than Karunanidhi who has promised reservations for muslims in TN.
West Bengal election results is a foregone conclusion. I wonder why the election commission even goes through the hardship of having polls in Bengal. I think it is time this formality of having elections be stopped and some tax-payers money saved.
Kerela again was a mere formality i think. Congress should have simply placated and given the reigns to Commies. Anyway they were not fighting the elections. As what Shekhar Gupta said on NDTV yesterday - "They want to save the center. They were just not willing to put up a fight against the Left"
So except for TN elections the others were simply of academic interest. With Amma going the dominance of Left will be much higher now. It will be interesting to see how things unfold at the center.
India's economy will be the first victim of these results. Also the jihadi terrorism will get a filip in Bengal and Kerela and also Assam thus further endangering the national security.
This ain't good time in India. I also believe stock markets are going to crash in days to come. Anyone invested heavily would do good to come out fast and may be re-invest again.
