UDF won the by election in kerala with 10k Majority............ BJP has done extremely well in this election.......If this can be considered as a trend, then UDF is going to be helped big time by BJP by eating vote share from CPM........

Incredible India! Cuppa at Rs 1,200 is Chiru’s idea of sustainable tourism -The New Indian Express

Incredible India! Cuppa at Rs 1,200 is Chiru’s idea of sustainable tourism

Ever had a cup of tea for Rs 1,200 and lunch at Rs 3,500 per head? Sounds outrageous? Now, simply multiply the cost of one tea by 200 cups, and lunch by 150 people, and you will land up with a whopping bill of Rs 2.4 lakh and Rs 5.25 lakh respectively. That is exactly how much the Ministry of Tourism, under Union Minister of State Chiranjeevi, paid for its guests for just a day during the recently held United Nations World Tourism Organisation conference on Sustainable Tourism Development. And if you’re wondering how much the entire expense of the conference was — it was a staggering Rs 2.14 crore for three days. This was revealed by an RTI enquiry filed by city-based activist Sai Prasad.

The details of the expenditure incurred during the three day conference, held from April 12 to 14, at the Park Hyatt and Taj Falaknuma hotels, also reveal various other expenses which seem outlandish, and has drawn criticism from activists. Take for instance the expenditure mentioned under the header ‘Recce visits for UNWTO meeting at Hyderabad’, which costs Rs 1.25 lakh alone. The RTI reply says only one or two people made all three visits.

The next expense under ‘Branding at Hyderabad for UNWTO Meeting’ raises even more eyebrows. The RTI shows that a staggering Rs 25 lakh was spent only on ‘outdoor branding’, the only explanation for which is given as ‘Airport to city, other important places in city and road leading to hotels and dinner venues’. Another Rs 10 lakh was spent only on ‘Artwork for branding (creative designing), printing and mounting of flex on hoarding of sites’.

The entire management of the expenses was undertaken by M/S Ashok Events, Indian Tourism Development Corporation (ITDC), which was appointed event manager as per an MoU signed between the Ministry of Tourism and ITDC, the RTI said. “There are so many costs which seem frivolous, and seem like they have been inflated. What is the need to spend Rs 1,200 on one cup of high tea,” question Prasad.

The most important part of LDF campaign is around 2 things.....

1) Saritha
2) Bar

Both the issues are related to corruption, but then you cant win an election just depending on them..... With saritha being used extensively, that also gives a signal, that the opposition doesnt have much to crib..... Actually they should not have concentrated on these 2 issues only......

The way things are going, CPM is going to find it difficult to maintain their vote shares....... But if that happens then IUML and Kerala Congress are going to be the key players (much stronger than today)..... I dono how that is going to turn out.....

There are many other reason..
UDF-Actually 'Aruvikara' is a traditional Congress strong hold+sympathy waves for Karthikeyan+UDF candidate 'Sabarinadhan is a younger/Fresh face+Muslims/Christian voted en mass to UDF..
CPM-Lost its traditional vote bank group 'Eezhava'to BJP+30-40% of young hindu votes went to BJP+Good face of their candidate "Rajettan'..

I have spoken to few traditional CPM supporters, they were planning to vote for BJP...... But we cannot be sure about this swift because in Trivandrum Rajagopal is a highly respected candidate, and there are several who vote for him on personal level........ If it had happened in any other district and another candidate i would say RIP CPM.....

I dont think so...... Gone are those days, where BJP used to sell their votes....... With the new leadership in Delhi, the idea would be to gain as many as vote from every seat....

New voters with what??? They traditionally used to take the route of SFI, DYFI, and CPM..... And their traditional stands are not attractive to new generation...... And now they are in a fix as they cannot change their traditional approach...... If they try they will loose their traditional support base.....

BJP will never do well in Kerala. The Demographics are not tilted in it's favour+the Leftist ideology of many Keralites will prevent them from voting for a communal party like the BJP..

BJP should spend more time on states where you can actually reap dividends like Telangana, Andhra Pradesh & perhaps even Tamil Nadu

When Hindus are being talivanized all over India - why spare kerala ?

The way things are going it is possible..... CPM to be blamed for that....... The way they conducted themselves....... Surprisingly Pinarayi opted to be a silent spectator in the entire campaign........

Nope,There is a good chance for BJP in the near future..
Vast majority of young Malayali Hindus(even from the SC,ST,OBC,who were traditional Marxist supporters) are now more into BJP/Sangh fold..
But the major issue with BJP is the lack of good influencing leaders+their inborn hatred for minorities

Well You are right when you speak about lack of leadership in BJP...... and I dont see them opening their account this assembly election as well....... Modi or Amitshah cannot increase the vote share by their appearances........ BJP need a strong leader who is a mallu......Like every party in Kerala, BJP also has 2 sections and their internal fight is as bad as INC and CPM......
