Had it not been for this current boring lecture I am sitting in, I wouldn't have realized why is it important to stop election campaigning 48 hours before the polling date. As the lecture progressed, I was lost in the cloud of information that my proffesor was creating every minute, I realized I needed time to process all the knowledge thrown my way. Similarly, for more than 70 days all the political parties would throw goodies and promises our way, and we would need at least 48 hrs to process all that and even the last 5 years of the incumbent government policies and its consequences. Though, I think even this time is very less after all the din and noise we go though in this period, it is enough for the incumbent government to hide it's failures and opposition trying to highlight the same, it just makes it even more confusing, and as if that was not enough pain to bear already every politician screams at the top of his head to vote for him/her. Sometimes, I wonder why the incumbent government ever need to even advertise its achivements which is for us to decide and see, and why the opposition even need to remind us of the government's failure.
But yet again thanks to MCC to save millions of tax payers money that the incumbent government would have wasted in these extraordinary times to feed us daily with full page advertisements in numerous national and regional daily.
