Elections are here and May, this year will be hotter than ever. As usual — political parties will do everything — campaign (for their party), contest (elections), compel (voters in their favour), capture (booths) et-al.
Election in India is quiet complicated and by far — most difficult to hold in the World — full credit to the Election Commission who does the job well, without much complains — whereas, the political mumbo-jumbo has everything to complain in spite of their skill-sets and known modus-operandi.
Pseudo-intellectuals and opinion makers create a hue & cry about renegade voters and falling voter line-up. On the contrary — how many of us confidently speak on — the feudal system of politics and its application on our democracy. How many of us can openly differentiate mindsets between an educated and ‘not so educated voter’? How many of us can openly point — “Identify the candidate First and then, the Party!” We actually do the opposite. (Alas!)
Why do people complain after they vote a candidate to power? How much effective these complaints prove to be? Why do we feel that — the next government would be a better one? (Is hope something deceptive?)
Sound’s negative (huh?)
NO! The issue is — we don’t speak! We should. We should proactively participate in discussing what’s NOT RIGHT — openly against the face of the wrongdoers.
You are most welcome to post your concerns and invite your friends (and well-wishers.) Please use this Blog as your own — proactively and productively.

I suggest you make use of this blog to cover current affairs in connection with upcoming contest for power in India. For example, what do you think about Varun Gandhi fiasco... or Congress promoting Rahul Gandhi's face in the promos and singing the contributions of Congress party since independence... did you watch those commercials? I am regularly receiving smses from Airtel for BJP... Do they have a promotional tie up or what? I wonder [;)]
ReplyDeletewith all the 'use your vote' campaign around the country am sure we all are motivated to vote..but now the main challenge is to choose the right candidate...Hopefully people wud use their brains b4 voting!!
