Was this surprise doesn't exists today in UP with SP rule. I see not diff between the parties until our people keep voting blindly without seeing the development as prime criteria.
I would not blame politician for exploit the caste as that's what we like. When NDA govt went to the voters with Development as point for vote, no body voted for them. What should they do? They have to run the show somehow.. that is there business. profession like us.. I think this is same putting the sin on the butcher whose cutting the Chicken without seeing who is eating it.
