Election Slogans When I was a young child

 Living in Rajpura Punjab in mid 1960 s

We children , around 6 years would collectively recite / campaign loudly a Song with names of 2 Parties i e. Congress and Jan Sangh , now BJP, , with our order of names of both Parties changeable acceding to our audience.
 
Our Election Song
-----------------
-- Party ko vote doh
  

Beedi mein tambaku hai
 
---- Party Daku Hai
 
---------------------
 Elections had always been an ageless Tamasha
---------------------
 
 In mid 1960 s Congress' symbol was a pair of oxen - Doh Bailon ki jodi and Jan Sangh's Deepak- an earthen lamp
