As the Coke vs. Pepsi war raged on for decades across the country, similarly there is a tough battle between Farhatullah Khan and Mumtaz Ahmed Khan in Yaqutpura assembly segment of Hyderabad. This example was given by a distributer belonging to soft drink industry. He told that Mumtaz Ahmed Khan has been winning assembly seat in Yaqutpura for 20 years and now MBT candidate Farhatullah has emerged as a great challenge for him. As the Pepsi by entering into the market in 1919 ended the monopoly of Coca-Cola launched in 1886, similarly Farhat Khan seems to be quite ahead of sitting MLA in terms of public support. The graph of his popularity rises day by day. As a rejoinder Mumtaz Khan who has been MLA for 20 years is trying hard to defeat his rival. He knows it well that people are for a change and they are fed up with monotonous speeches.
Another businessman of Mir Aalam Mandi cited Amer Khan’s advertisement in which he compared choosing a candidate to choosing vegetables. The businessman said when we choose best vegetables for us why not the best candidate. If people vote a candidate keeping in view his performance, they can elect a service-minded candidate for their segment.
