Enigma of Karnatak
8th Oct 1999 Aditya, the Hindu Skeptic @bc.seflin.org
I was reading a news analysis in TOI and it said that Karnatak voters get the message too late. When the entire country voted against Indira Gandhi, she was elected from there. This year they did the same in Bellary and voted against the national trend. San some one who knows about Karnatak tell us why they are so slow learners even though it includes Banglore which is populated by the most forward looking people? -- Have a peaceful and joyous day.

People of Karnataka may be slow learners as per "the Hindu Skeptic" and definitely wise enough to enjoy the benefits of ruling by different parties at the state level and central level. That is why every year more and more multi-national companies and investors flock Karnataka more than other places. In most other places people are more concerned with their ideas on Politics, Religion and communal hatred. Watch Karnataka and it could be an eye opener for the entire nation.

Maybe it should occur to us that these are the people who maintain the opposition? Unless you want another single largest party with single largest majority to rule for 45 years. -- Best regards, Yang Yen-Thaw from New Delhi *********************************************************************** YANG advocates & solicitors *********************************************************************** International business transactions, infrastructure and intellectual property (India related) Telephone +91-11-686-3103, TeleFax +91-11-696-3703 Main Office - New Delhi.

As I wrote earlier it seems to be a case of anomaly only and not a deliberate attempt to maintain opposition since Bellary has never returned a non-congress candidate whether Congress was in government and opposition. These voters were taken for granted in the high drama that accompanied filing of the nomination and the voters did not disappoint the calculating politicians. -- Have a peaceful and joyous day.

hi To begin with the name of the state is Karnataka and not Karnatak. Not sure why even the Hindi newsreaders pronounce it as Karnatak. After all when we write it in Hindi it turns out to be Karnataka > >I was reading a news analysis in TOI and it said that Karnatak voters >get >the message too late. When the entire country voted against Indira Gandhi, >she was >elected from there. This year they did the same in Bellary and voted >against >the national trend. >San some one who knows about Karnatak tell us why they are so slow learners >even though it includes Banglore which is populated by the most forward >looking people? exactly, that is why she did NOT stand from Bangalore because she would have lost. You cannot relate Bangalore to other parts of the state. Bellary has been a safe place for Congress for a very long time. In Star News they interviewed a farmer who said he has no idea who was standing from Congress but all he knew was that he had to vote for the party which had the symbol of congress.. ------- B.G.

Hi mahesh, I am not sure, how it is pronounced in Kannad BUT If I am right , Karnataka in hindi is written as KARNATAK only. In any official government documents in hindi OR hindi text books , its written as karnatak only. If its really KARNATAKA in native language, It needs a correction at all these places. neeraj
