It always appear to me that something is missing from our Election..........time and again we hear that its our right to vote and agar election ke din aap vote naheen kar rahe ho to aap so rahe ho. Maan liya ki aap so rahe ho...........but do we have complete freedom in electing the candidate to say that he/she represents the people at large. A big NO......!!!! We are forced to select or elect from the list of candidates, without having option to stamp on 'None of the above'. What happens if somebody does not want to elect from the candidates appearing for election. Are not we forced to select from the worse or better few.Does this represent peoples' verdict??? So, to my view, people at large must be given this option to filter out criminals, to which Election Commission finds at receiving end, reasons could be varied from outdated laws to legal to political limitations. After all, its we who decides the future. Have complete faith in people and not partial one.
Secondly, we declare any candidate winner, without having cut off limit, and say he represents the people from his area or constituency. Even school examinations has some percentage fixed to declare a student pass/fail. Although the peoples participation has gone up in recent past but, to my view, at least, there must be some percentage of voting fixed to declare the election VALID and some percentage fixed to declare the candidate winner from the particular constituency. However its tedious job for common people but can be done easily by officers sitting with data. Not a single Election be declared valid till it sees 90 % (percentage could be higher.This is where I say an expert is needed) of its voting. And not a single candidate should be given representation till he has more than 50 % of total voting.
Well, this will give people ample power to utilise his right in correct manner. These are some of my points that has kept disturbing me, right from my childhood. Hope the Blog system will make difference.
