Tamil Nadu politics

Having decided to blog about public issues i thot i'll jus step into the shitload rite away...
Politics in tamil nadu rite from the formation of DK to DMDK has been full of twists and turns. I invariably find the scenario funny when the politicians convincingly fool people to vote for them. Pre election manifestos and promises got wilder and wackier as the D-Day approached. I was able to note these recent elections nicely and hence feel i can safely comment on it. On the outset i'll state a few facts:
DMK promises : Illavasa Tv with cable connection, erendu rubaiku ration arisi, vivasayi galluku illavasa nellam etc
AIADMK : "Madam J" first spoke philosophically that she had done enuf for her people and they wud vote for her in return. Later on her lucrative promises included free gold and free marriages, 20 kg of rice for Rs.35 etc
DMDK : Finally Captain Vijaykanth felt he's been jobless in life and the state needed him from now on. He promised free 15 kg rice, cows and door delivery of rations.
I still dont understand wat Vaiko does inbetween all these guys. I hav seen him posing in a variety of dresses suiting the occasion and that he's a gr8 orator but then cant go beyond saying politican if asked wat his occupation is. He frequents jail and glorifies the experience also.
So then tamil nadu politics survives on the people i.e. those who vote. Sadly it realistically means illiterate, poor mass constituting the housing boards, slums and area borders filled with all kinda insects, diseases and not to mention an open gutter flowing freely thru the so called roads present there. These people hav high ambitions but little realism and practicalism in life. Also develop the mentality that anything goes for money.
With the kind of funds i notice being spent on campaigning and glorifying each side, no one we still reel under bad road conditions, sanitation and third rate buses. One of those glorifying events i noticed was in t nagar bang on pondy bazar. Elaborate bandobust with police manning every feet of the area around the function and lot of chair and kachi thondargal hearing a speech. AS we walked closer, i noticed that there wasnt anyone on stage and a recorder was placed near the microphone. So many policemen for a tape recorder. Other events include dances by MGR look alikes and adaptation of third rate TASMAC certified tamil songs with party glorifying lyrics..spending this kinda money here makes me wonder where all teh funds come from...lol the budget allocated 280 crores for flood prevention in Chennai alone...and yet parties like Lok Paritran r also not encourged...
