Congress Party wins India elections 2009

India’s ruling Congress party (INC) has won more than 191 of the 543 parliamentary seats up for grab in the 2009 India elections, beating out the main opposition bloc led by the Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).

While short of a majority, the result means incumbent prime minister, Dr. Mammohan Singh, will form the 18th Indian government since elections were first held in the world’s second most populated country in 1947.

With more than 70 percent of the votes counted, the Congress party-led coalition of Dr. Singh could end up with more than 240 of the lower house seats.

India is the most populous democracy in the world and more than 714 million of its 1.2 billion population were eligible to vote in the five-stage election process that ended on May 13.

Deputy Election Commissioner, R. Balakrishnan from the national election commission said voter turnout was approximately 60 percent, for the marathon process that took one month to complete.

According to the constitution, a new parliament has to be in place by June 2 and Prime Minister Singh today called a cabinet meeting for Monday ahead of what will be his second five-year term. In being reelected to the country’s top post Dr. Singh becomes only the second prime minister in the country’s history to win back-to-back parliamentary elections. The first to do so was India’s first prime minister Jawahar Lal Nehru.

Lucknow: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader and five-time MP Maneka Gandhi won from the Aonla Lok Sabha constituency in Uttar Pradesh Saturday, senior Election Commission officials said here.
Due to a mistake in the tabulation of votes, Maneka Gandhi had earlier been reported to have lost by about 22,000 votes, one official said.
It was finally found that she had won by about 6,400 votes.

Congress-DMK win 8 seats in TN, leading on 18

Chennai: Many of the Congress' top leaders were trailing in Tamil Nadu though its alliance with the DMK and the VCK had won eight seats and was leading on eighteen. The rival AIADMK front that includes the Left parties, MDMK and PMK was ahead in 12.

Prominent winners from the DMK were Chief Minister M Karunanidhi's son M K Azhagiri from Madurai and filmstar J K Riteesh from Ramanathapuram. Among other DMK candidates, former communications minister and media baron Dayanidhi Maran, and central ministers
S S Palanimanickam, A Raja and T R Baalu were also leading.

The DMK and the Congress had won four seats each, while the AIADMK and the MDMK had won one each, as per the results declared by 3.30 pm.

Home Minister P Chidambaram was finding the going tough in Sivaganga constituency and had demanded a recount after the returning officer declared the AIADMK's Raja Kannappan as a victor with a margin of around 3,000 votes.

Congress heavyweights like central ministers E V K S Elangovan and Mani Shankar Aiyar and state unit president K V Thangkabalu were trailing.

MDMK leader Vaiko was defeated in Virudhunagar parliamentary constituency, which went to the Congress' Manik Tagore.

Ruling Congress alliance wins election

Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's ruling coalition won an overwhelming election victory on Saturday, boosting hopes of a stable government as the emerging Asian power faces economic downturn and tensions with Pakistan.

Singh's Congress-led coalition, riding on the back of years of economic growth, did better than expected and will probably be only just short of an outright majority, according to data from the election commission and projections by TV channels.

The victory over the opposition Hindu-nationalist-led alliance means the left-of-centre Congress may find it easier to form a stable coalition with smaller parties and be less vulnerable to pressure on issues like economic reforms

"Eventually the people of India know what's good for them and they always make the right choice," Sonia Gandhi, the head of the Congress party, told reporters outside her home in New Delhi.

Congress party supporters, their arms in the air and carrying banners of star campaigners Rahul and Priyanka Gandhi, set off firecrackers in celebration on the party's return to power.

The Congress party-led coalition was projected to win 261 seats, short of the 272 needed for a parliamentary majority, state TV said. Full results are expected later on Saturday.

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-led opposition alliance would take 160 seats and a Third Front of communist and smaller groups 58 seats, the TV channel said.

The BJP effectively conceded defeat by saying that Congress had the biggest mandate.

Singh, 76, said he wanted a cabinet role for Rahul Gandhi, the scion of the Gandhi-Nehru dynasty and who is seen as having orchestrated the Congress party's resurgence in northern states.

"It is my wish that he should be in the cabinet. But I will have to persuade him," Singh said.

The results should boost investor confidence and hopes for reforms. Markets had been jittery over a poor showing by either national alliance, fearing the emergence of a weak coalition.

"This is a dream for the market. You could not have thought of anything better than this. Get ready for a 7-8 percent rally in the stock market on Monday," Samir Arora, a fund manager at Helios Capital management in Singapore.

About 714 million people were eligible to vote in the largest such exercise in the world staggered over a month to allow security forces to supervise the vote.

ECONOMY, GANDHI

India's booming economic growth for the past four years, including rising rural incomes, may well have worked for the Congress-led coalition headed by the reformist Singh.

A severe financial downturn that began last year and is continuing in Asia's third largest economy appeared to have had little impact on the fortunes of the ruling alliance.

"It seems to me that we must acknowledge the economy," said political analyst Mahesh Rangarajan. "Despite the slowdown in the economy in the last year, these four or five years have been among the best in India's recorded economic history."

A tireless campaign by Rahul Gandhi was also was a factor in the election, Congress supporters said.

"We want Rahul Gandhi to be the prime minister as soon as possible, he is a great leader and we all love him." said Vandana, a student supporter.

The election was a setback for regional, caste-based parties and the communists who were once seen as indispensable for any coalition formation.

The communists, who were trailing in their bastion states, broke away from Singh's coalition last year, angry over a civilian nuclear energy deal with Washington seen as undermining national sovereignty.

Mayawati, the controversial chief minister of Uttar Pradesh who was tipped as a possible kingmaker, did not make significant electoral gains to wield influence in a possible coalition.

"The pressure will be much reduced. You will not have a government hostage to smaller parties," said Anand Sharma, junior foreign minister in the government

Chiranjeevi wins in Tirupati assembly constituency

Praja Rajyam Party chief Chiranjeevi has won his maiden election from Tirupati Assembly constituency in Andhra Pradesh.

Chiranjeevi beat his Congress rival and former chairman of Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams B Karunakar Reddy by a margin of over 10,500 votes, official sources said.

Manmohan to remain PM: Congress

NEW DELHI: Congress on Saturday made it clear that Manmohan Singh will lead a government led by the party as promised during the campaign,
scotching speculation on its prime ministerial candidate.

Addressing the press at 10, Janpath in New Delhi, party president Sonia Gandhi said that Manmohan Singh remains the party’s choice for heading the next government. She said the verdict reflects the wisdom of the Indian voter, who “always make the right choice.”

PM Manmohan Singh said he would try to persuade Rahul Gandhi, scion of the Gandhi family, to join the cabinet after the ruling Congress-led coalition's win in a general election.

"It is my wish that he should be in the cabinet. But I will have to persuade him," Singh told reporters.

Earlier, AICC media department incharge Janardhan Dwivedi told reporters here when asked who will lead a Congress-led government at the Centre: "Manmohan Singh is our PM candidate and he will become Prime Minister.

On projection of Rahul Gandhi as a candidate for the prime minister's post, Dwivedi said. "the PM's chair is Rahul's future and he is the future leader of the party.

"It depends on Rahul when he will desire and when such a situation will arise. But as of now, Rahul has other priorities," he said.

He also gave full credit to the 39-year-old scion of Nehru-Gandhi family for the party's unexpectedly good performance in Uttar Pradesh.

"It is just the beginning", he said and predicted the end of communal and castist parties in the future.

With the Left parties suffering a setback in their bastion West Bengal, the Congress hoped that they "will introspect whom they will remain with" and play a "different" role.

Rahul has all 'qualities and capabilities' to be PM: Scindia

Union Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia today said Rahul Gandhi should be the Prime Minister as he has all the "qualities and capabilities".

"I am not undermining anyone but I am saying that Rahul Gandhiji should be Prime minister. He has all the qualities and capabilities...he has actually shown that in this election...," he said.

When asked whether Manmohan Singh should resign and Rahul become PM, he said: "I never said that. I said that it is not the aspirations of the Congress party alone, aspirations not only of the youth of the country but all people of the country that he should get to the helm."

He said his maturity, his farsightedness and his political astuteness that he has shown in the last five years was exemplary. "That is the kind of leadership that this country was searching for."

Making it clear that it was his personal opinion, Scindia said: "Manmohan Singhji is the prime ministerial candidate of the Congress party and absolutely once again will be the prime minster of the country. You asked for my personal opinion and I gave you my personal opinion."

Advani wins Gandhinagar by over 100,000 votes

Gandhinagar: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)'s prime ministerial candidate LK Advani won the Gandhinagar seat by over 100,000 votes, almost half his 2004 victory margin of 217,138 votes.

The BJP leader, who contested the Lok Sabha polls for the fifth consecutive time, found his victory margin reduced due to the delimitation exercise in the Gandhinagar constituency that brought down the number of voters.

After four rounds of voting, he was ahead of his nearest Congress rival Suresh Patel by 106,963 votes.

Advani has contested from Gandhinagar in 1991, 1998, 1999 and 2004 and now in 2009.

Party supporters were planning to take out a victory rally in Gandhinagar later Saturday.

Lalu Prasad wins one, loses another

Patna: Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) chief Lalu Prasad has tasted victory and defeat in the same breath Saturday - winning one Lok Sabha seat and losing another one.

Lalu Prasad won the Saran seat beating Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) heavyweight Rajiv Pratap Rudy.

However, the railways minister in the outgoing government lost the Pataliputra seat to Ranjan Prasad Yadav of the ruling Janata Dal-United.
