Gujarat Election : Election commissioner bans Bulk SMS

The Election commissioner has banned bulk text (SMS) messaging by political parties & their members to voters in the 48 hour period before start of voting in Gujarat and Himachal Pradesh.

Indian Political parties started using IT and Mobile as a medium to spread their message to common man during LOKSABHA 2004 elections. They contact direct marketing agencies & send bulk messages at very low cost. But they wont be able to do in last 48 hours before the Gujarat election in December. Will they loose ?

I think no. The actual losers will be Telecom companies. Although they had to agree with Election commissioner , they have loose good revenue source. For political parties it should not be a big issue. Bulk SMS was one of the Communication mediums being used by Political parties like BJP & Congress. They are using websites , bulk emails , Social Networking sites like Orkut , Youtube , forums which can not be banned by Election commissioner.

One thing I don't understand is Do people vote on the basis of what they hear or read in 48 hours before the election or what the opinion they have developed on the basis of what they have seen & experienced in last 5 years ?

Shanti to Arjun Rampal :- " Tum Mittal ki ladki se shadi nahi kar sakte , kyu ki tumne mujse shadi ki hai . Mein tumhare bachhe ki maa banne wali hu " . Yeh sunke Apna Om makhija tut jata hai jaise Earthquake me makan tut jate hai. Mukesh Mehra dont want the world to know about their marriage & tries to kill her. Apna Hero Om makhja tries his best to save the heroin , but sadly both are killed.

( Har Hindi Movie ki tarah. .... )

Om makhija who is now Om kapoor, becomes super star .
( Subhash ghai ki Karz ki tarah )

Om makhija ki ma thinks Om kapoor is his son Om makhija who looks same as his son. & Shouts " tu mera beta Om hai. "

While preparing sandy to act like Shanti , Om shouts at Sandy that why she is not serious. " Mein tujme shantioriya dekhna chahta hu ".

Om prepares Sandy very well to scare Mukesh Mehra. Some incidents take place after which
Mukesh mehra starts believing that there is a ghost of Shantipriya . Om thinks that Mukesh Mehra will be scared of this & will confess his crime publicly . But that does not happen. Mukesh mehra find outs that she is not a Ghost but the duplicate of Shanti.
