 "Music Katha Ha"  "Music Pitae ha "  Lover Boy Amit |
Joshi’s heart
goes out to Amit
By Our Reporter Shillong Times
Shillong: After political heavy weights like Chief Minister DD Lapang and a
number of prominent legislators expressed their support for
Amit Paul,
the lone finalist from Meghalaya and North East at the Indian Idol 3 contest,
Governor Banwari Lal Joshi also played his part by participating in a
signature campaign, launched by Rilbong Sports and Cultural Club, at the Raj
Bhavan on Friday morning.
In his signature campaign, the Governor wrote, "Yes…! Wholeheartedly for Amit..."
in a huge banner on the mobile vehicle taken out by the club as part of its
initiative to garner more support for Amit.
It may be mentioned that the Club general secretary, Manas Chaudhuri was also
present on the occasion.
"We are proud of him. Let us pray and vote for his success," the Governor
appealed.
He said, "I have been voting for Amit continuously, so is my family". He
further said, "Let us together celebrate when Amit returns home as the Indian
Idol 3."
In another programme, thousands of supporters and fans thronged the city
streets campaigning and appealing to vote for Amit and make him the next
Indian Idol during a car rally organised by the Shillong Arts and Music Lovers
Forum (SAMLF) in the evening.
Speaking to The Shillong Times here on Friday, W Nongspung of Lumshyiap said
that Amit is more deserving to be the Indian Idol comparing to Prashant Tamang.
She said that votes from all the music lovers of the region and the country
would definitely make him a winner.
"If Amit really becomes the next Indian Idol, Shillong will rock," Ms
Nongspung said.
Despite reports that a businessman from Sikkim sponsored phone booths in
Sikkim amounting to Rs One 1 crore to enable the people to vote for Prashant
Tamang, a contestant from Darjeeling, the people of Shillong are still
confident that the music lovers of the country would make the right choice.
However, a young girl in the crowd at the car rally in the evening said that,
"we know a person in the city who has promised to sponsor Rs 2 crore but wants
to remain anonymous."
Even though voting is open for the whole week, many of Amit's fans have vowed
not to sleep as they would not waste a second to ensure that Amit wins the
Indian Idol title.
It may be mentioned that last week, the BSNL CellOne service alone recorded
over 10.20 lakh votes.
Meanwhile, friends and family members of Amit will organise a rally at the
State Central Library (Soso Tham auditorium) on Saturday at 1 pm. The rally
will take the route - starting from the State Central Library via Khyndai Lad
point,Raj Bhawan, Barik Point and back to where it began.
Our Correspondent from New Delhi adds:
Union Cabinet Minister PR Kyndiah on Friday again lent his support to
Amit Paul.
In a statement, Kyndiah as Chairman of the North East MPs Forum has appealed
to all MPs from the north eastern states to patronise and vote for Amit. He
described Amit as a talented singer, a singing sensation and pride of the
North East.
