You can find how rediff is biased against BJP.In MP BJP won a seat by 35000 votes, but rediff is claiming that Congress could have wrested if Congress had some understanding with SP which voted by 25000. The simple calculation will say BJP still ahead by 10000 votes even we assume all 25000 transfer to Congress.

Correct! Also not all 25000 votes would have gone to Congress had this SP candidate not contested. The votes he got were against BJP as well as against Congress. So when SP candidate not in the fray, some of his votes would have gone to Congress while some would have gone to BJP. Hence, BJP's margin would be much higher than 10000.

EVERY journalist would like to be anti bjp. This is because they think it is the secular way to catch minorities as majority will always wag and has no opposition to them destructing. Earlier every journalist would like to debate about Hinduism and the religion. Will they debate about other religions? So that is the trend! All this will stop if Hindus react to it.Well which Hindu would like to react?
