Let the numbers do the talking

Numbers are bi-polar.

They hide as much as they reveal.

Some Observations here. 

Numbers are from http://eci.nic.in/. (Data as of May 17th 9:00 AM IST)

  • Total Registered Voters  :81,45,91,184 
(Nearly the entire population of US (32+ Cr), Pakistan (18+ cr), Nigeria (17+ cr) , Japan(12+ cr) put together)

  • Total Votes                  :54,07,25,627 (66.38%)
(Nearly the entire population of brazil, Russia, Mexico and Germany put together)

  • Rest                            :27,38,65,557 
( Where were you all.. Including me..!!!!)
  • AAP Votes                    :1,13,23,443 (2.0% Vote share)
(Remember BJP was formed in the 50's, grown in the 70's, won just 2 seats in the 84    elections. The 30 years of that era can be equivalent to 3 years of this era with all the communication channels and media. So not bad factually for an 18 month old party.)

  • AAP Votes in TN :          :2,03,151 / 4,05,78,699 (~0.5% Vote Share)
(Seriously a better campaign strategy was needed.. at least in the south)
  • Biggest Loser  : Obviously Congress ( -162)
( Not just BJP, you too broke all the opinion poll predictions Congress)
           
  • Second Biggest Loser  in the country : DMK (-19)
(You had it coming)

  • Number of Votes for DMK in TN : 96,33,869
( Seriously there are so many who refuse to free themselves out of the old sentimental chains..)

  • Interesting Ladies Stat  :  BSP(Mayawati) secured 0 seats with 2.2 crore votes  ; ADMK secured 37 seats with 1.8 crore votes.
(Population density ki jai)

  • Total NOTA Count  : 59,93,512
(Bravo...there is awareness)

  • Constituency with Highest NOTA count : Nilgiris (Great Mr. Raja's constituency) -46,559
(Still couldn't believe he was able to contest in the first place..
worst being 3.5 Lakh hopeless voted for him.. how much socially unaware are people)  

Personal Regret : Vaiko Missing out

Slow Down...

                               If you are the one who skips this article as soon as seeing the title to the next facebook post then this is definitely for you. 'Time and Tide wait for none', ' A stitch in time saves nine' are all not applicable here. Let us walk into a world where time is defined as what you make of it. Every day you hustle and bustle, run behind something which you might never be contempt with. You carry hefty baggage of burden and suit it with burning shoes of pressure and sprint across the most beautiful garden that is made for you and you claim to be a winner. Have we forgotten to sit down and appreciate life? Is all our relaxation and celebration restricted inside the walls of a theatre or contained inside the idiot box? Is our leisure defines by television program guides. Does entertainment mean only an affair with the digital world? Does art come in paper strips that say 'Admit One' and with a 2 and a half hour time bomb attached

உழவும் உழவனும்

அவன் விதைத்த விதை தான் இன்று உலகமாய் விளைந்து  நிற்கிறது அக்குது இல்லால் இவ்வுலகம் ஓர் களி மண் உருண்டை மண்ணோடு இருப்பின் அவனுக்கு கொண்டாட்டம்  அக்குது இல்லால் உன் வயிற்றுக்கு என்றுமே திண்டாட்டம் செடியிற் நிறமேனோ பச்சை, உழவன் உதிரம் நிறமரியா இயற்கை  மதியை மடியில் உறங்க வைத்துவிட்டு , வயலை வால் மார்ட்டுக்கு விற்பது மனிதன் செயற்கை  மழை  போல் அவன் மனம்  மகிழ பொழியா  விடினும்  களை  பிடுங்க  ஓர் கை நீட்டி  கொடுக்கா  விடினும்  உழவன் உலகை பாராட்டு,  இல்லையேல் பார் ஆடிவிடும்  அவன் உழைப்பை கொண்டாடு,  அவனுக்காக மன்றாடு  மண்ணின் மகத்துவம் பேணு, மண்ணை கண்ணாக காணு  உழவனுக்கு உறுதுணை செய் ஓர் பருக்கை தான் பொன்னென்பது மெய்   எத்தகையனும் எப்பொருளும் எவ்வளவும் ஈட்டினும்  இவ்வித்தகையவன்  வளைந்தெடுத்தா ற்தான் உணவு  ஆம் விளைந்தெடுத்தாற்தான் உலகு
