this has come into the scene now but it happens all the time. i am 24 right now and my brother 29. we have never voted till date in india, because we were never there in the constituency where we live and where our names appear in the voters list.
we have been studying and have been outside our birthplace and have never got a chance to vote, but whenever our parents go to vote,since their names appear next to ours, they always find out that somebody has voted in our place. so i would say this is not something new but i doubt if something can be done about it or for that matter if something will be done about it. all i can say is god help us.
more than the piece of news what shocked me was the fact that it found place in your bulletin. false voting is very common in India. I have myself experienced this atleast couple of times, if not more in Calcutta. so i don't see as to why an India should get surprised on such a thing.
This is a shameful things for us that instead of having everything readily available with us, the officials who are on the duty are not well performing their duties and the public is facing problem for that. It was that brave lady who fought for her vote. But everybody cannot have that much guds so some steps should be taken to look for such matters.
i appreciate your(the woman in the article ) effort . you did a really great job. you ahould be an inspiration to all those in the country who do not participate in the elections. i congratulate you for finally casting your vote on your name and not giving up! hatts off respacted ma'm.
You did a great job. I wonder who appoints such imbeciles to the job. As we see...PASS THE BUCK scenario and what does he mean by "FIND SOMEONE WHO IS NOT GONNA VOTE" so if u are not present to vote let anyone else vote? However...I am curious but what about that person who voted and signed in the wrong place...is their vote lost?
