Punjab polls

It's a lesson for hot-headed politicians like Amarinder singh who harassed opposition parties after coming to power. For such people, putting opposition leaders and supporters in jail is more important than development of the state. Jayalalitha did that and faced same fate. Amarinder did that and faced same fate. Next in the line is Dr Y S Rajashekar Reddy, Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh who now started thinking that people voted him to power to ruin prestigious media group like Eenadu and dismantle opposition in the State. Power goes head of these people immediately after coming to power. They live in a make believe world that they would be rulers forever.

Percentage is vote share. Bars are for seats won. There may be no correspondence, given a 'first past the post' voting system as compared to a proportional representation system. As you can see, the Cong. vote share didn't really reduce 2002 to 2004 and yet their seat share drastically went down. Yet another reason India should move to a proportional representation system.
