Belgaum Loksabha constituency history
4:56 PM Posted by ukmad
In the continuous coverage of the elections of 2009, here are other bits of history for the Belgaum constituency.
NA - Data not available NE - Does not exist NC - Not Contested UC - Uncontested
Well many would say what there is reading all this history, but we have to learn from history and it is very essential that we know who was our MP and by how many votes he won.
Many would just scroll through the data here but data interpretation is very important.
Some excerpts:
The Average voter turnout has been 60%.
Highest voter turnout was in 1999 which was 66.97% & lowest in 1991 of 52.29% .
Margin of winning on an average has remained in between 8 to 11% on one occasion it was 33.94% in 1980. 
From 1989 to 1998 the voter turnout was very less and also during the same time the border issue was on a somewhat high gas.
On an average if there is 60% voting person getting more than 35% will surely win, but all this is dependable on the candidates. This time we have to see what happens.
The Congress is yet to decide on the candidate, if A.B.Patil is not given a ticket he might stand from the JD(S) Ramangouda Siddangouda Patil will contest on the BSP ticket.
If we see as on date BJP has a leading edge as there are no good candidates in the ring. Nomination will begin from 28-Mar-09 and by 08-Apr-09 we will have the complete list of candidates.

Gokak Falls old Photo

General view of the Falls of Gokak, Konnur, Belgaum District
Photograph of the Gokak falls, taken by James Burgess around 1874. The Ghataprabha River that takes a 170-ft leap over a sandstone cliff in a picturesque gorge with a horseshoe shape creates the Gokak falls. On the sides of the river, there are several Chalukya medieval temples from the 11th - 12th centuries.

Angadi, Patil apologies to Kannada speaking people
11:47 AM Posted by ukmad
The Belgaum police have filed a first information report (FIR) against BJP candidate Suresh C. Angadi and MLA Sanjay Patil in connection with hoisting of a saffron flag on the new premises of Belgaum City Corporation (BCC) and allegedly making inflammatory speeches.
These politicians are hard to be understood. Take the above example of the two BJP leaders, who came on their own at the Corporation premises and when there was a spat with the MES activists Angadi proudly took the saffron flag and demanded it’s should be put up. Once this was done the Kannada activists demanded the removal of Angadi as the candidate and succumbing to their demand made an apology.
That day they both were there to show their support for Marathi people and when Kananda people arose they turned back. My point is here not to bring forth the language bias but the mentality of the politicians in general. Tomorrow you could see Angadi speaking in Marathi and again saying that saffron flag must be hoisted. They come to ask for the votes once in 5 years and the same situation is all over the country. Now how can one believe on the BJP candidate?
May what it be, this time the elections are not as simple as they were all these years. Development issues have never come up for discussions, the whole campaign might just go off in settling this issue alone.
