L'Alliance Lepep released its manifesto eight days ago while Labour/MMM did so today. Or 58 days after the people at Lalit made their electoral program available. And that has made the recommendation of Abraham Brilloff handy again.
Labour/MMM announced that they will increase old age pension to Rs4,000. This confirms at least two things: one is that they don't have a serious economic plan -- why are we not surprised? -- and two they've been on the defensive for the past month and a half. Lalit has 28 candidates of which 43% are women.
It also shows us how important it is to have a competitive democracy. Which is the foundation of both our electoral setup and system of government.
So the best outcome is that no block gets more than 35 seats and some toxic candidates don't get through.
