Assembly By-polls

In Bengal wind of change keeps blowing unabated in Assembly by elections too. Out of ten seats Left has bagged only one. However, in effect it’s lost two seats to the opponent. The electoral reverses it started suffering since Panchayet poll continues undiminished. If this trend continues in coming Kolkata corporation elections too, change of power in favour of TMC-Congress alliance in Assembly poll in 2011 would be a forgone conclusion. Change of power after certain period of time augurs well for democracy. Long stay in power breeds corruption, nepotism, arrogance and complacency as well, although change for the sake of change is not desirable either. People always desire change for the better, particularly in a state like ours where terrorist and divisive forces are gaining ground. Victory of secessionist party like Gorkha Janamukti Morcha in the poll does not obviously send a good signal for the unity and integrity of the state. Whoever is in power must be on their guard against such evil forces. That apart, in democracy opposition should always extend support to the govt in the developmental work of the state. But here unfortunately this trait is absolutely lacking.Hope,if opposition comes to power,the present ruling party won’t behave the same way!
