From 1950 to 1990, barring two brief periods,
the INC enjoyed a parliamentary majority. The
INC was out of power between 1977 and 1980,
when the Janata Party won the election owing topublic discontent with the corruption of the then
Prime MinisterIndira Gandhi. In 1989, a
Janata Dal-led National Front coalition in
alliance with the Left Front coalition won theelections but managed to stay in power for only
two years.

the Constitutional Law and Convention. It is
necessary to examine the above views in the light of

STATE GOVERNMENT ELECTIONS IN
RAJASTHAN
It would be an understatement to say that theyear 2008 in Rajasthan was soaked in blood. Beit the terror attacks in the Pink City Jaipur or theagitation of Gujjars demanding more reservation,the past year was a violent one for Rajasthan.The Gujjar agitation, which snowballed into amass movement, is likely to be a major decidingfactor in the Lok Sabha polls. Terrorism and the
overall security scenario, especially post 26/11Mumbai terror attacks, are likely to play onvoters minds.

Hindu BJP, or they vote for regional parties, as was thecase at the polls in 2004.

democracy.

The Election Commission of India has madeelections less visible and less audible: Nobanners, no posters, no hoardings, no wallwritings, no handbills, and, no blaring of
loudspeakers. The fear of the ElectionCommission's Expenditure Observers, who arekeeping a close vigil on actual expenditures bycandidates, and video recording crucialhappenings in constituencies, is a deterrent

Voters turn out has been low (first phase:
48 to 50%, second phase: 44%), in spite
of the vigorous voters' mobilisation drive.
While a scorching sun at 41 degreesCelsius, the harvesting season, and the
Election Commission's stringent
regulations may have deterred voters,there may be deeper reasons for voters
not showing up .
