Dear Mr. William,

Your last letter was so exhilarating. I read it thrice to fully enjoy the pleasure it contained. You want to know about the ways polling is done in our state. You know democracy is not the same in the third world countries as it is in your coountry. France and America, for example.

So polling in our state has a unique local flavour. The poling booths are like different fairs voters-men, Women and children go there mainly to enjoy themselves. Of course; they are full of feudal loyalties. They remember the nature of their ties with the candidates and cast their votes in favour of that candidates who has made them most favourably disposed for whatever the reason. At times some voters mark the symbols of more than one candidate.

But usually there is a particular trend at a particular time and most candidates follow the trend. In our state election is more or less an emotional phenomenon. It is not as cold calculation as it is in your country. Mostly we vote for people and not for ideologies. All politicians vomit their ideologies. But who cares ? Most people vote for their saviour laeaders-be it Sonia or Lalloo.

Looking forward to hearing from you with best wishes.

To
