It is not freebies that he got votes for. He has support from vast majority of middle class educated youngstes who don't really need freebies. It is just a narrative people run with based on MGR's free scheme. If only freebies get you votes parties won't change. They do reject poorly performing government. cowboysfan 1

bsriharsha Posted May 4 Posted May 4 DMK wasn't a failure. Nor were the precious AIADMK governments. This is just Tamil Nadu wanting someone new to do the same policies.
vvvslaxman Posted May 4 Posted May 4 Just now, kepler37b said: Just asking: DMK was doing fine. With monstrous 15 percent growth rate. I am not entirely in touch with TN politics. Even the seasoned political commentators are surprised by the result. The guy Rangaraj pandey is a leading political TV figure in TN. He vowed he would quit talking about politics if Vijay wins more than 5 seats. Here we are. Nobody knows. I think younger generation probably played a big role. As per AI. I can vouch for first one. Almost all young voters Probably in 90 plus %? voted for Vijay. Also women voters i can vouch. Prett much 90% of my relative girls are vijay fans. Something we never could understand. Young Voters & First-Time Voters (18–25): This group acted as a core base, driven by his "fresh image" and massive fan base, with some reports suggesting strong support among 18-19 year olds. Urban and Semi-Urban Populace: TVK saw significant strength in urban centers, with reports indicating a roughly 2.5% spike in his favor in cities like Chennai. Women Voters: Similar to past successful cine-politics shifts in Tamil Nadu,, Vijay's campaign garnered increased support among women, partly through targeted outreach. "Change" Seekers: The party attracted voters who felt disengaged from the traditional rivalry between the established DMK and AIADMK parties. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7]

Even Revanth Reddy after coming to power asked all the Andhra folks to leave Hyd Office. IMO Hyderabad was choosen as joint capital for 10 years only. I know Andhra people have given their blood and sweat to build Hyderabad. But the state is divided now, whatsoever be the reason and how just-unjust it might be. Not everything can function like Punjab-Haryana-Chandigarh combo. I meant why not choose Vizag, it has most potential to expand withut disrupting exisiting infrastructure but it won't appease his caste Kammas.

The caste angle is correct though. No it is not limited by geography at all.Viazag people were not taking day to reach Hyderabad.

The point is that Hyderabad was accessible to all. Vizag takes more than 16 hours for a guy from ananthpur. A capital in the middle of the state makes more sense. You can say kamma domination etc etc but a capital needs to be accessible to all. Edited May 4 by bsriharsha

putrevus Posted May 4 Posted May 4 1 hour ago, Mariyam said: This is the thought process which will be the undoing of our democracy. You are basically saying corruption is okay as long as he does xyz. There are many who say the same thing about Sharad Pawar. He maybe corrupt, but he developed the sugarcane industry and ports all across the Konkan region. You may paint him as a villain because you don't agree about his other or should I say 'othering' policies. See my point. You give a free pass to one mega corrupt politician, you have to give a free pass to them all. It is this corruption that is the biggest cause of inflation. Give me a person with a strong sense of morality. Modi ji, MMS, PVR and the Left are ahead on this front. Vision is a function of experience. It is developed. People accepting corruption is okay is so sickening .This thought process is ruining the country. Vijay's party did not pay even single rupee to buy votes, how he does as an administrator is second question.Morally he is what you want in your leaders. Lord 1
