On 27th May the voters of Periyapatna Assembly constituency in Karnataka
voted to elect their MLA. The high light on the polling day was a scuffle
after the Congress candidate K Venkatesh tried to perform Puja on the
Electronic Voting Machine (EVM) at the polling booth at Kittur in Punada
village.
After reading the message (appended here below), I'm convinced that religion
and politics is a recipe for disaster!
