I had decided that I'd make use of this right of mine, and not cast my vote. But, when I got my finger marked, and told the polling officer, that I do not want to vote foe any candidate, he said, there's no rule that says that. I didn't know the section then. And I had to cast my vote to someone. Why did this happen? Do we really not have such a rule? Are the polling officers not told about it? Or, are they partial too, in not telling us about it?

Why did this happen?
Do we really not have such a rule?
Are the polling officers not told about it?
Or, are they partial too, in not telling us about it?

Where there is a will, there will always be a way Chitra. All one has to do is search for that way. I hope we can start a movement, and start using resouces that we have readily available to us, like internet and other print media to spread our word. We need more indians like us, like minded who have unflinching desire to make our India a truly great country. A country where values like honesty,humanity,respect, basic human rights, safeyty etc are the norm, not some shallow materialistics values that we currently have.Every day one can see the moral fabric of India being shredded to pieces and no one is willing to defend it. I only hope that we can and that too before we as a civilization cross the point of ot return. If you decide to get up and do something, please count me in and we shall do it together RPI,Chitra Gupta, Amit,Ananay and Nakul….I hope that your desire to change India is still there and has not died out.

2)and we wshould make goverment as two equal and opposite parties one of republic govt. and other democratic as it is done in america and so the people their have no truble and are living freely.
3)government should be made but leader should not be greedy as are leaders now ,this is stated because a leader could walk on a cycle but he want expensive cars and not a single but about one dozen and where as the middle class family have no money to get a single car.

$$$$$$$$$ most important topic for xiith+ students $$$$$$$$$

so give quite to the corruption in this world
and i would reply a deep detailed artice after few days as my exams are going on ,see you ,good bye may god bless you ,have a nice day !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was wondering the other day if we can do this (vote for everyone and notify our discontent with all the contestants) with electronic voting machines! I agree.

I am extremely sorry for role of Media in India. they are supporting wrong things, may be unknowingly. even several people like me want to do lot of things for our country but always try to answer coming in mind like where to start with how will society react where will i get money for this who will support me etc........... i believe we should start at least from somewhere may be we should start correction in our own life and surroundings to come up to a big change.

even several people like me want to do lot of things for our country but always try to answer coming in mind like

where to start with
how will society react
where will i get money for this
who will support me

etc………..

i believe we should start at least from somewhere may be we should start correction in our own life and surroundings to come up to a big change.

Firstly the politicians today are supported by a strong legal group.So if any situation like the above occurs then there are many people right and wrong to bend these rules in many ways. This would automatically lead to more loss of our hard earned money which the "leaders"have already pocketed. The fact is that innumerable arguments could go on about what is right and what is wrong and the argument would never end as everyone has a different perspective. Lets understand that there doesn't seem to be a solution as there are many politicians who with their fragile principles are destroying the country. The law enforcers are severely inadequate. What has to change is the mindset of all people. Where pointing fingers and finding loopholes has to be stopped and sincere action with honesty towards the nation's good. We are only being amateur by complicating it for ourselves. you seem to have got the facts right but the concept could work in many ways affecting us.
