Wrong gesture : Change in symbol as local party

Finally, PRP is looking for 'Change'. Well, this is not the change what we were told and promised... rather a change in election symbol.

May be the complicated design of the 'rail engine' which may not have appeared clearly on EVMs, I still think PRP would only have lost less than 1% (may be 70,000 votes) of their polled votes.. with the symbol... not so many.

Now the party chief says that they are looking for Rising Sun symbol, which is already in use by a state party in Tamilnadu, which closes the oppurtunities of making the symbol unique at national level. I dont know if PRP can apply for EC for changing the design of the symbol, than choosing a new symbol.

What I mean is, a simplified design of rail engine may be requested by PRP, if rules allow. PRP should have tried in that direction. This simplified design will help in getting identified easily.

This party told so much that they will contest from Bangalore, Orissa, Tamilnadu... Looks like they are now going with the stream, than opposing it !

Anyway.... lets see how this new symbol will help PRP... I think Umbrella should be more unique and easily recognizable.

Cheers
