Indian elections 2009 on the WWW

Posted by: pavithran on: April 11, 2009

CPIM website could be termed the most innovative and effective of all websites .
It has not only videos but also songs which reflect the party ideology.
All questions on the party are answered including Anti – CPIM remarks

The party has not only released manifesto but also various booklets on several issues effecting the electorate like price rise,education,agriculture and terrorism showing that they are fighting elections on the basis of issues but not for candidates.

Party websites in various states of India

Andhra Pradesh   :

The state which faces assembly elections

Telugudeasam : Telugu desam website comes 2nd nation wide :) with hell lot of localised content saying that it stands for telugus . The radio does play some news and there are clipped media reports of its campaign classified district wise.
The radio is quite innovative informing the viewers of laatest election news.

Loksatta :The newly formed loksatta party doesn’t fall behind with it’s videos and gallery .What distinguishes the party from any other party this elections is it’s presence in Social networks especially orkut where a post comes every 5 minutes ( approx ) and it has 8000 users with NRIs contributing to the forum when India is sleepping :)

Praja Rajyam Party:The glamour from chiranjeevi did not stick to it’s new party  website which is just like Yet another website. What’s interesting is the footer which shows with an image and small description of the poll promises which the party makes.

Telangana rajya samithi has it’s pink coloured website which could be ranked the last in Andhra pradesh political websites :P

Andhra Pradesh congress :There is a  NDTV video in which Indian congress was rated   3 out of 10  .. I will rate it 1 or 0.1 in Andhra Pradesh ;)
They have released the website http://votecong.com with celebrities as  bloggers -  Jeevitha and jayasudha . The whole website shows one trend  opposition bashing :(
The blogs and their language did raise some doubts if they were written by the same person or if they were edited by some one else .. now they do reflect some changes but earlier posts like “Sporting his trademark smile Mr. Rajasekhara Reddy was his usual candid self ” did give me my OMG or WTF is it the real blogger ?
The content was also not properly organised including blogs which shows a real lack of dedication by the web designer !!! :O
Well what’s good in the site is the cartoons and quote of the day, they also have some audio of speeches.

Karnataka:

While the karnataka congress site looks good http://www.karnatakapcc.com/ not yet developed like andhra pradesh cause they don’t face assembly ;)

Strangely http://www.janatadal-secular.com/ doesn’t work :( which was a previous website .
A bit of hardwork did reveal the hidden http://jdsparty.org/ which asks the choice of language kannada or english .Plain party site

BJP karnataka in comparision to two local parties is a better site http://bjpkarnataka.org/
It has videos audios links to BJP sites of gujrat india tamilnadu etc .

Strangely there is a site for MP candidate ananth http://ananth.org/
Yedurappa aslo has his colourfull website http://yeddyurappa.in/ in which he provides mobile themes of BJP :)

Kerala:

Kerala CM also has his site http://www.vsachuthanandan.org/ which though plain does accept user feedback via guesbook and also invites users to join mailing lists.

Kerala congress with its http://keralacongress.info/ has again proved to be sore with its Old kind of image show and youtube videos are too deep inside

Tamilnadu:

The dravidian attitude was clearly shown when I visited http://www.aiadmkallindia.org/ which gave me annoying popup to install tamil font (LOL)
Plain website with pary candidates list . It has a special video player which didn’t work for me :(

DMK website could be kept in the last of list for good websites. Site is in tamil ofcourse but what annoys is the fact “Viewed best with IE 4.0 & Netscape 4.0 and Above with 800×600 screen resolution” WTF I don’t use IE and netscape is passe 800X600 are they still in that age ?

BJP tamilnadu is plain but has an ad linking to advani site http://www.bjptn.org/

Orissa :

BJD in orissa has a website which was hard to find .Anyways colourful website which followed accessibility standards http://www.bijujanatadal.net but the site doesn’t have much of content.

BJP orissa
– same old plain site http://www.bjporissa.org/

Madhya Pradesh:

MP congress used a propreitary font which was forcing me to install http://mpcongress.org/
I didn’t cause I already have Hindi fonts on my machine don’t want to install some obsolete font for every website I come through.

Bengal :

Didi didn’t want to look bad had in her photos at her party site http://www.trinamoolcongress.com/
Not much of freshness maybe we could see some for bengal assembly elections ;)

North :

BSP site is dull but it has some content  .

Don’t understand if it’s official or unofficial but this is the site for RJD http://www.rashtriyajanatadal.com/
It has focus on rail budget to show Lalu is a good minister :)
Also has a link to RjD in press . The entire site is in hindi

SP:Well designed website of http://www.samajwadipartyindia.com with usage of flashand 10 reasons well expllained by pictures
Whats interesting is the profiles of various leaders .. just like BJP the focus is on leaders
It has a blog with only 2 posts and some comments which were not regulated . Whats also seen is that the blog was created in March for elections !!
The whole website is in a state of neglection and could be seen by Sanjay dutt ad as Lucknow candidate .. and no mention of nasifa ali !!! :X

Janata dal United:Couldn’t find the sites of Janata dal united or Ram vilas paswan but found http://www.georgefernandes.com/ which didn’t have any information :(


Akalidal : http://www.akalidalamritsar.org has some videos but the site looks old.
http://www.akalidalamritsar.net/ is the main akali dal site ( looks like one for ideology the other for party !! )

Couldn’t make out much info .. try yourself :P

J&K:

The website of JKNC has expired giving a error http://jknc.org/

Maharashtra:

NCP inherited some properties from congress after all http://www.ncp.org.in
The website is dull and I didn’t look into it.

Gujarat :

Last but not least the BJP gujrat site which auto plays a message from Narendra modi to NRI’s like me :) It also has some opinion polls on black money in swiss banks.

Cashback movie

Posted by: pavithran on: March 11, 2009


This might be the most wonderful movie I have ever seen , though it had lot nudity :( the movie is a good one.It was a short film turned into a feature film . The short film was nominated for oscars :)

I don’t relate much to it , but it did show a guys suffering.. when he was dumped :( The amusing thing was sainsbury store ;)

koncham ishtam chana kashtam

Posted by: pavithran on: February 17, 2009

Well sorry guys the movie title is “koncham ishtam koncham kashtam ” what I felt was chala kashtam .. no don’t get me wrong … I didn’t mean it’s chala kashtam to settle down with  the girl you love. I meant that it’s chana kashtam to watch that movie ;)

Before watching the movie , I thought what could go wrong in  a movie when there is siddhu – the youth icon . tamanna – good looking actress and a story related to youth .

Unfortunately  those 3 were only the reason I watched the movie . Jeevi rated it 3 . I can give it 1 only for the actors.

The music and screenplay sucks . The story looks like a worst mix of old telugu movies. Atleast could have copied from english movies :(

look at siddhu and tamanna !

look at siddhu and tamanna !

Girls in my life

Posted by: pavithran on: January 31, 2009

After going public on many things why not a blog post on such a interesting topic!!

Sruthi : Almost knew her from age 1 cause , the difference of age is 1 and our grandmoms houses are just opposite each other.

about her: Currently married to a business guy and with a child of 2 years at bapatla in coastal andhra.

last met: I met her a chirunomula ,the first time after she got maried .. well I couldn’t recognise her at all :(

my feelings : a good friend in the village chirunomula . I never got into the kind of phase “love” evern before that feeling came a guy called “pichaih” came and asked me to marry her .. guys I was 12 or something .. I hated that thing and maintained my distance from her ,and she grew mostly in chirunomula .. so her friends won’t just sync .. we see each other but in teens we were never good friends as before .. she sometimes plays with my cousin mounika.

Then one day while I was in my under graduation I heard that she got married , the fact that her father died recently and the need for a male in the family made them marry her I guess .. but we were never called for the marriage which was kind of weird considering the fact that her father and mine were friends.

well it ends like that .. it’s life :)

Akshara: The naughty girl ,knew her during the times  of my lower teens . We used to stay at UTF office.

about her: doing her Bipc at hyd .. well she doesn’t like her education much :)

feelings: she is a nuaghty girl and makes lot of noise . We had great time at utf office and used to roam all around that building . And there were never ending complaints of “me teasing her ” to my and her mom and both used to scold me :D   . When she went away to hyderabad the gap was there .. why did she ever go away from home … missed her a lot though used to meet her some timesat hyderabad  remember once we went to lumbini park .. which was just a small walk from her home . It felt really strange .. though .. I can’t express .. a great friend . Called her from southampton when she gave  a missed call . Heard that she is doing bipc and not much interested as usual in studies ;)

sowmya: Knew her from 7th when she joined NHHS , but was not a part of $LIFE during that time :O

about her: a quallcomm employee earning a lot stationed in bangalore waiting to get married to some one ;)

last met: at bangalore .. remember central and garuda mall and the distance between us huh :(

my feelings: a celeb in 10th as far as I rememmber . I found her online during BTech and we started meeting once at lumbini and again at lumbini after a year which started with a movie and we planned to have a great time .. this post explains it clearly .

Then she went away to BITS the calls decreased till a silence till right now when I or her don’t even bother to ping each other .. and the blame could be entirely me . I acted highly immature with her . Well I kidded a lot and played a lot with emotions . I just didn’t act properly .

At bangalore when we last met  I behaved badly and bored her to core . I really could feel the irritation rise in her moods. we departed and phone calls followed and IM’s but the damage was done .

sowmya .. a great friend lost her :(

Neha: one relative who was a great friend .. knew right from childhood.

about her: doing engineering at some college

my feelings : well till I was in Btech all I did was to tease her .. and after that I still tease her but strangely a family member became friend . I talked all about *her* she looks cute .. and one day I just kidded to her and I was surprised that she took seriously what I said .. OMG so someone does take me seriously .. but the fact that she is just coming out of adolescence  I don’t take her serious .. but was a good companion . I strangely bought her gifts from bangalore much to the surprise of my family cause I never buy anything to anyone  !!

all I said was to enjoy her UG as much as possible .

I remember her cute bengali friend when we last met at guvvalagudem on a big family get together in the recent times.

Mayuri: knew her only during 10 months of 12th … but the impact was heavy .. Fell in love with her only talked face to face with her 3 times !!

About her: an architect in pooona

Last met : at NGJC when she returned the slambook of mine .

feelings: This actually defined the life of mine .. which strangely started where and took me to places .

I loved her and I really did :(

To such an extent that :

  • followed her to find her home
  • took the phone no from a contact board for tutions
  • followed her many times to just stop myself from proposing what I had to propose
  • strangest thing : I got her hall ticket from her college poster cause she was one topper . I used the hall ticket to rob her digital photograph .
  • Using the digital photograph I created a website expressing love
  • called her many times just to find that she is not interested in me :(
  • wrote a big proposal mail to be bashed up by her
  • just recieved an “ok” when I told her that I love her .
  • All she did was to convey the meaning “not interested “

People learn slowly .. but I think I learn’t it hard way when in my last communication with her she scolded me ..

pyaar kiye to gaali khana .. hai … damn there are better things to do in life :(

krishnaveni: knew her from the great social networking site .

About her: a s/w engineer at infy bangalore.

my feelings : I hate her just for the reason that I mentored her for her final year project   :( else she was just a nice online friend ;)

www.kde-students.blogspot.com is the project .

she introduced me to a new world , when I went to carpediem – the cultural event of cbit . I really like her and hate her sometimes .. but whatever she was a part of my life and I learned a lot !!!

Lavanya: Yes again it was orkut which bought me to her. Knew her for a little time at SR nagar which was where she used to live . Met her during 4th year of under graduation.

About her: some job in bangalore

feelings: Nothing much in common but I thought she had a crush on me . I was mistaken I learned later . she just want to propagate her Christianity to me :(

If I don’t blog I will soon forget her .. she wanted some info from me sensing that I was a techie guy and we became friends .. but I lost her till one day I went to church with her …. OMG I hated it but how could I tell her :(

lost interest and she doesn’t reply much to mails .. there she goes .. away :(


Readers .. that’s it .. and have a look at color codes :P

teri yaad

Posted by: pavithran on: December 4, 2008

Yes jab uski yaad aati .. really feels like who it is !!
I always comare it to variable .. increment and decrement it by integers LOL / need to get out of the geeky life.

anyways … strange life.. as I search for the one.. which is ideal in nature.. hard to find .. but like people say .. koi hogi I am not sure.. wait for the days to go on !

Avakai Biryani

Posted by: pavithran on: November 28, 2008

Avakai biryani poster

Avakai biryani poster

No I am neither sekhar kammula’s PR nor this blog is about him .

Well the fact is his movies are interesting .

The jeevi’s review has given it 2.25 / 5 .. I wondered after seeing the movie why ?

It’s a good movie but the way jeevi analyses it .. I can’t .. I am an ordinary audience with some thoughts who expects something different in a movie.

Maybe the difference is what which made me like the movie .

Happy Days – An Ideal Movie

Posted by: pavithran on: May 4, 2008

icon

Wow .. a great movie by sekhar kammula .. say a lot of people .. when I first heard that he is going to take a movie on CBIT based on student’s life .. I was really happy .. but not after I had seen the movie .

I would as the headline of the post says say that the movie is ideal not real .. as I expected from a sekhar kammula’s movie .

when I had seen Anand  on a PC ( I refused to see it at theatre as I didn’t like the way kamalinee looked ;) ) by coincidence I felt happy watching anand.. was a great movie after all , when I saw Godavari at theatre with a friend(gal) mimicking kamalinee dialogues and making fun of her.. I liked the movie afterwards..infact went crazy over it .
When I came out of theatre I met my juniors in college .. I told them .. “Dont expect a Sekhar kammula movie”  Dunno why I told that way but that’s what I felt and am feeling now :(

Love !!!

Love …pyaar …ప్రేమ …kaadhal

Had some great and tragic experiences with this feelings !

On the timeline had it 4 times !

  • 11th end : with a gal in maths tution ( a type of feeling which I cant describe)
  • 12th : fell in love .. This one took lot of my resources !! Got addicted to music .. realised very recently that that love should be felt from both sides !

My favourite music!

Posted by: pavithran on: November 1, 2006

In telugu my mother tongue I used to sing tunes of AR-Rehman’s “pachadanamey ” from “sakhi”,but now I am adicted to “sainikudu music” ..It wakes me ,mesmerises,reminds me of some one ..(shhh this is a public blog!)

In hidi my nations tongue I was a fan of “kal ho na ho” ,”dil chahta hai”,”tanha dil” and also “saathiya “

and speakin of saathiya..hope she reads this blog!

especially for her :

“hasti rahe tu hasti rahe haya ki lali khilti rahi ……..”

but now sona enered the arena. and  sona mahapatra the INDI-PoP singer I am crazy of her!
