BlackMamba Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 Why do they need 4 days to start counting ? It could have started yesterday evening
G_B_ Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 why do they need 5 weeks to conduct polling. Compared to that 4 days is nothing. India really is becoming a joke in the world. Even a basket case like Pakistan is capable of holding elections on a single day. At max it needs to be 2 weeks.
JaiRamesh2 Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 Allow ELection Comission enough time to form alliance with Congress. But also probably in case of repolls
Tiger80 Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 So that BJP and its supporters can celebrate exit polls

Even a basket case like Pakistan is capable of holding elections on a single day. At max it needs to be 2 weeks. This I understand totally. Out elections used to be a sham -- like 20 - 30 years ago, with 25% of the results completely invalid or rigged. We needed total monitoring and given our size, breadth and width of the country -- we moved to this format, realigning and reassigning security forces and election monitors to areas where it is needed the most. And now no-body complains about our elections.
someone Posted May 13, 2014 Posted May 13, 2014 With respect to the phrases, if rumours are to be believed, EC was divided. It could have been done in 5 phrases, however the upper management due to politics and pressure made it 9 phrases.
