Who will be peoples’ Valentine this time?
Apparent inertia of workers of political parties was in sharp contrast to the enthusiasm shown by voters who braved rain and renewed chill to have their say through the ballot in Jalandhar district Assembly constituencies. Till now, polling has been a noisy and violent affair and it was for the first time that the poll went off without the usual display of money and muscle power.

Despite voter I-cards, they did not vote
Many voters from Jalandhar had a harrowing experience on Tuesday as they were denied the right to exercise their franchise despite the fact that they possessed voter I-cards.

Rain fails to dampen spirit of Kapurthala voters
Contrary to the fear of low polling percentage, intermittent rain could not wash the enthusiasm of Kapurthala electors to exercise their right to franchise on Tuesday.

It was literally a hurdle race for over a thousand voters who came out to cast their votes in two polling stations set up at Doaba Arya Senior Secondary School in Nawanshahr. Owing to incessant rain since last night and the poor drainage system, the campus remained flooded and the voters had to climb on a series of school benches to reach the polling stations from the school gate.

Just a Thought
Charity without cause
A strong wind swayed the Champa tree. Its flowers and aged leaves were on the grass lawn. There was the pitter-patter of rain. I was in a rented room all by myself. The pace of rain drops increased. A youth drove through the pool of water that had collected in front of the house. The shadows of streetlights- some lit, some unlit-mesh of wires criss-crossing one another, gently returned to the pool. Rainwater had almost inundated the street that joined me with the neighbour’s house.
