Ahmedabad, 13 December 2012

Have a look at Election day advertisements in Gujarati newspapers published from Rajkot.

Jamjodhpur’s Congress candidate has given an advertisement. Also Jamkhmbhalia’s BJP candidate Poonamben Madam has given an advertisement in local newspapers.

One advertisement in blue color is about ‘cheating’ with fishermen in name of ‘Sagarkhedu’ scheme. This advertisement has been given by some ‘Vikas Parishad.’

Then there’s one of the BJP advertisements which says, “Na jat par – na pat par – Mahor lagegi vikas par.”

Modi’s letter appealing voters to go for vote has been published in full length occupying almost one full page.

One of the Congress advertisement shows a rope for suicide and targets the farmers.

Another Congress advertisement describes shortcomings of present government and Congress’s promises.

BJP’s full lenth advertisement asks voters to think before voting. “Think before voting, who will become Chief Minister of Gujarat? Vote for sure for our Chief Minister. Gujarat can’t be handed over to a group without leader.”

Another Congress advertisement asks people to vote for Congress for freedom. It narrats some points targetting the state government.

Keshubhai Patel’s advertisement reads: “For water in Saurashtra, to teach lesson to BJP who said our elder person ‘Deshdrohi’, take the bat in your hand and bring change. We have Saurashtra’s good in our heart.”
