In Andhra Pradesh Congress came back to power on the anti-establishment factor - congress as played dirty tricks like: 1) Free power for Farmers 2) 200000 government jobs 3) Convert all contract and termporay posts into permanent 4) Irrigation projects in all districts 5) Joining hands with Naxalites 6) 24 hour water supply to all cities 7) Divide state into 2 or 3 pieces ... and many more.
Once Rajasekhar Reddy,a christian, has became CM - His focus was: 1) killing the Opposition TDP workers, politicians. 2) Conversions are happening at massive pace and several churches are built all over the state - while lands of Hindu temples are illegally occupied by his ministers and sold for profits 3) crores of rupees are sniffed off on the name of irrigation project - each government employee working in such irrigation project has earned in crores of rupees. 4) Declared 5 % reservation for Muslims to get votebank 5) His ministers are grabging land from in all cities and towns
None of his election promises were met. He has done more harm then good. Chandra Babu naidu was a better CM but lost due to anti-incubancy factor after ruling for 9 years when there are severe drought. Several government servents who were posted as presiding officers/election officers have illegally rigged during the election thinking Naidu's tough actions against lazy government servents can ended. But now they are repenting see then pathetic rule of Rajasekhar Reddy.

Hello Ravi. The way you wrote your comment on UP election clearly states that you are a strong fundamental Hindu. Firstly, because instead of writing comment on UP politics, especially on the said article on Mr. Rahul Gandhi, you have straight away focussed on the A.P. CM Mr. Rajesekhar Reddy, not because he has done great to many extend, but because he is a Christian. Secondly, your reply to Nirmala, asking her whether he/she is Christian clearly states that you are not talking about politics but religion.
Now, my sincere comment on your line. When you give a comment on any article please make sure that you mention quite clearly on the said article and don't sway away from it. You can ofcourse quote examples, but not so cheap that you forget commenting on the article. You were talking about building churches and conversion as your targeted comment. In that case, what happened in UP? Believing that you are a strong hindu, I think the hindu fundamentals were not building temples, rather destroying others temples and monuments, a clear example of what goondaraj means. You have enough places in our country where you can build multi-temples at one go, then why do you want to destroy the already constructed structures (a worship place like Ayodhya). Don't you like people to live in harmony as human beings? Do you want an Ayodhya to happen again? Is that the reason you are calling a shot for Rajesekhar Reddy to make Andhra Pradesh have another Ayodhya? Keep away please for God's sake. Lets build a India of peace and harmony.
If you don't want to vote for congress fine, choose the BJP or the SP or BSP or any other party, but keeping in mind that Politics is a place to serve people, not people serving the politician. A greater politician is a person who humbly hears and meets the needs of the poor that just getting votes and squizzing the people to serve him or her.
So, to end for now, if you want to throw congress out from A.P. campaign for TDP next time. But if you do that, please make sure that you throw out BJP from Gujarat as well. People are not fools to make errors all the time. Today everyone in the nook and corner of our nation knows his/her right to vote and its people's power that can decide on the future course. Beware people like Ravi to comment out of context and you stand by it. Don't turn back to your promises. Warning for the Centre government, state governments, politicians and even small political servants.
Sorry Ravi, if I have said something that hurt you. Being an Indian, lets look for a nation with properity and peace rather than making comments that would creat violence.

Rajashekar Reddy governement will lose to TDP in coming elections very badly.As ravi said he is sponsering christian conversions in AP and even worse.Bad example is the vice chancellor of TTD owned university is a christian now.I was a stuanch supporter of congress but religion is important form me than caste.I owe i never vote for congress in my life.As nirmala says BJP goonda's what about YSR family in his district they killed hundreds of political opponents.Mr santosh politics are now blended with religion and inseperable now due to leaders like YSR,Mulayam etc.

Hello Jagadeesh, I agree that politics have been blended with religion but do not agree on what you said inseperable. Its only in India that we make this so called sentimental claims of being protectors of "gods" and "religion". People in our country is more religious than others and thus people have the mind set of safe guarding their gods and goddesses and thus look for any party who can play cards of protecting their deities and religion. Thus, politicians take this as an advantage of fighting elections on this basis and try to trick people for 5 or so called years.
Politics is different and religion is different. People of our country knows it well, but show that they are ignorant. Politicians primary role is to make policies that would help people of all sections to live with dignity, whether poor or rich. Its like a service to ask the rich of this nation to lend a helping hand to the poor. But what is happening is that they take votes from the poor and make the rich more richer in their tenure and by doing so, filling their own belly as well. I don't blame all the politicians, but some. I believe we all can make a difference. I would love to stand in an election, but who will give me a ticket without having money? No one. Thus, we can do one thing, elect a person who can serve people and not command. So my friend Jagadeesh, if you can serve the people then stand for an election, I will support you. Lets separate Politics, that is public life, from religion, that is personal and private life. Leave God alone as s/he can take care of her/himself, but lets try to help the poor and needy with the power of the system that has been given to us by the people. May religion help the politicians to confess their greediness and make them understand the need of the hour and start doing what God really wants them to do. Not destroying temples, mosque or churches, but building the poor and needy communities in value and dignity.
