      What ever the results can any party make a diffrence unless u people make your mentality clean. Gujrat, Kerala, Punjab, Maharastra, Andhra Pradesh all are developed since the people want to be prosperous. Party / leaders that explores good things in their people are much better than those making and exploiting bad out of them. Nothing will change unless we think with our brain not what parties/Leaders want us to think. Jai Hind

      Win or loose, there is no alternative to CONGRESS. No other party can offer progress and prosperity. It's CONGRESS, who can.

      Smajajwadi Party ka cycle punture ho gaya aur hathi bhi flat ho raha hai.Uma Bharti will be next CM of Uttar Pradesh.Congress is anti-OBC and for this OBC will teach them a lesson for that.Jai Shiv Shankar Bole Nath ..........

      Mulam Singh SP and mayawati have largest black money in UP and if they elected will again create addition of black money to its earlier wealth list.Both are supporting at the centre to CONGRESS to save them from CBI.

      Trinamool and JDU will do well in UP election because people are fad up with same old SP and BSP for creating castism ,Gundda raj and corruption.National parties will be biggest gainer in UP elections.
