Hyderabad,
June 4: Summer is vacation time for every one. In villages no one has
any real work. By-elections which came during this vacation period have
been providing plenty of entertainment to the villagers. There are
political analysts in every village. Other innocent and curious
villagers surround these analysts and take their valuable opinions on
political developments. Some enterprising persons have also pitched on
the brilliant idea that they could earn a fast buck through these
by-elections. Villages which were quiescent, suddenly came alive.
Betting has started on who will win and who will lose. Betting did not
stop at that. If some one’s victory is a foregone conclusion, people are
betting on the majority.
Though the by-elections are confined to only some districts of the state, they generated interest statewide. So betting gangs sprang up every where and gung ho are the bidders. This enthusiasm has even reached the professional bookies who have been controlling cricket game. Their networks are now directed towards politics. They started conducting independent surveys and deciding who would win. They are said to be indulging in scientific analysis of the goings on, day by day. They have identified popular candidates and devised ways to attract bidders.

YSR
Congress has become a hot favorite for these bookies. Bidders are
queuing up to place heavy bets on this party. In districts crores of
rupees are changing hands already. Heavy bets are being placed that YSR
Congress would win all the 18 Assembly and 1 Lok Sabha seats. Apart from
this party, chances the TDP and Congress have, the number of seats they
are going to win are also being speculated. Constituency-wise betting
is also on. On the day when results would be out, the fate of not only
the contesting candidates but also those who placed bets heavily would
be known.
