General Elections - 2009

The result of general election in 2009 was surprising for me. I didn't expect UPA to do damn well. The best and funny part of the whole election was, the predictions by all the news channels.
Everyone was expecting a hung assembly and when such result comes up, its really remarkable. Congress has done really well and lets congratulate their effort. The election results were being predicted with respect various attributes. The one which I read and followed was the "Television ad" by both UPA and NDA. There is an article on IMRB which talks about which ad is most liked by the people of india. The answer was UPA ad was better liked in most parts of India except Karnataka. The general election results were also on the similar lines, Karnataka is the only state which had best result for NDA.
Going further, there will be loads of drama about forming the government and which all parties will support Congress. There are signs of young leaders joining the cabinet which is a good news. The best part of the result is a stable government and lets hope Manmohan Singh can pull India out of the recession as promised.
There are lots of expectations from this government on all fronts and the foremost is security and economical situation. I believe a stable government is required to tackle such issue. People of India seems to be Happy about the election results.
I hope UPA government makes India proud.
