Riding a horse to file his papers
By IANSWednesday, March 25, 2009
NEW DELHI - Perhaps he is hoping for a galloping win. Manish Kunjam, the Communist Party of India (CPI) candidate from Maoist-insurgency hit Bastar in Chhattisgarh, rode a horse to file his nomination papers!
By the time he reached the office of the district returning officer at Jagdalpur town, an impressive procession was following him.
Kunjam, a former legislator from the Kota assembly seat, has his task cut out - to stop Bharatiya Janata Party candidate Baliram Kashyap from getting elected from there for the fifth time in a row.
Who trots ahead, time will tell.
