Yes you are quite correct, if the EVM is used there is no hopes of Siddanna otherwise 100%

To get respect and value for each citizens voting power all must stand together are demand ballot system. No matter whof ever win. For a fare and clear result and for a good ad ministration in Karnataka we want ballot voting system.

Jai Hind Jai Karnataka

Modi had made alliance with EVM. Thats why he's won in every election. Hope feku's EVM alliance wont work in Karnataka

Siddaramaiah is best. Congress will bag 2018 poll. Thats 100% sure

In Karnataka, Modi wave will not spread.

The people, who denied permision for Sunny leone's programme, cant say they didnt watch and enjoyed her porn videos till now. All are fake moral people. They should deny Amitttt Shah's programme permission

Sunny leone programme will be private one with tickets so no need to worry.. All issues are unwanted. But these cheddi people's public. They dont have license for their tongue. They May tell anything for personal gain and spreading communal tension

Shah and Feku coming for spreading communal hatred

Be careful.. Sunny leone's programme is far better than shah's
