Manipur - Irom Sharmila got only 90 votes

Oh... I did   not know. After BJP's big victory in UP, I lost interest in other States election news

The media went overboard with her . One could clearly see that she was most unsuitable to lead a party,  leave alone a state ..

You mean Iromei is unsuitable ? I think Manipur was a hung result, if I am n mistaken.

Oh I missed this news as I was busy watching UP election results but I feel very sorry for Irom Sharmila for 16 yrs she fought individually against AFSPA just for the people of Manipur but unfortunately it seems they do not recognize her as their leader.

Irome of Manipur was defeated badly because she was not a suitable candidate.

Irom Sharmila is an activist and her fasting for 16 years to remove the AFSPA act is highly commendable. But one cannot lead a party or state based on just one issue. She is an idealist and one need to be a strategist to be successful politician.

Exactly my feelings, you have expressed it spot on ..Her poor performance shows that today's selfish age and times are not meant for self sacrificing people who put others interest above their own . To lead one needs to be a leader and also have a commanding personality without which it is difficult to survive..

This is sad but it is a hard reality that self sacrificing people receive pity from many but are not given a chance to prove their mettle in some responsible roles. Sadly, in the same manner Irom Sharmila too got ignored in this election.   

In these day politics is not easy thing. It wants hug money and much more. She was on fast for last 16 years how can she arrange all these. To be success in politics she much be prepare ground for it.

I feel that with little better strategy she could have performed better in this election. The first mistake she made was regarding her choice of constituency. She could have selected one where people know her better and not just as an icon of anti AFSPA activist. She chose the home town of O. Ibobi, the chief Minister as a direct challenge to him. Though labelled as a corrupted minister, Ibobi has done much for his hometown. He has ensured that people in his constituency get all the basic amenities. In fact his constituency is more developed than the state capital. In such situation, sharmila found it difficult to convince the voters with her vague talk.

She should have joined a political party and tried her luck. 

Latest news says,  the efforts of BJP  to form the Government in Manipur with the support of 40 MLAs from Other parties  succeeded. Same is the case in Goa. Manohar Parrikar would be the CM of Goa.

Another nonsensical post from rambabu since Manipur has just 60 seats and BJP has won 21 , so where are the 40 MLAs? Do they include Congress as well...Honestly he is becoming ridiculous to the extreme..

@USHA in both Manipur and Goa the Congress is number 1 and BJP is number 2. As per your wish they should have joined but cannot. Also you had stated that number 1 should form government. Now what is your comment. Remember I had said that if Congress is number 1 viewpoint will change!.

Ideally thats what shd happen but after what members like yourself had to say I feel that you are all right and I was wrong ,it is the final  outcome that matters and where Congress party is concerned there is no ideology of any sort involved ...like they did in Delhi and Karnataka..

 2013 Delhi elections - Cong-7,AAP-27,BJP-32,still cong supported AAP and form govt...

again..

n the 2004 Karnataka elections, the BJP emerged as the single largest party winning 79 out of the 224 seats. However, the Indian National Congress with 65 members and the Janata Dal (Secular) with 58 members formed a coalition government with Dharam Singh of the Congress as Chief minister

But I feel people of Manipur should have given her an opportunity to prove herself.Her fight for 16 yrs is really applaudable and shows her dedication and commitment to be a true leader.

After CM Ibobi's resignation, BJP is going to form the Government. Just now i have seen TV. In an informal show of strength before the Governor by its NE incharge Ram Madhav paraded 32 MLAs supporting the Party.
