and the VOTE goes to

This is the season of election one cant but think of election when one writes. so i decided in pursuance to my earlier post. what more to write than "MY VOTE" per se.

Let me begin with saying that we all should vote. No! not because everyone says so. afterall copying is also an art. Voting, as said before is, quintessentially, not just a right but also a duty. By voting we express our opinion. Some people who claim to be too matured "not-to-vote" will be more than happy to point out to me many lucanae in my argument. chanakya answers correctly " There are infinite reasons not to begin, but Only ONE reason to succeed". let me put forward to you my example

Vote according to me is the expression of my choice- by voting i am choosing issues which matter to me, which relate to me, which are of importance to me.
Also by voting i am letting elected representative know that i am lookin forward to their work now that i have voted for them- they have to deliver. here i must say proactive involvment is necessary. it doesnt end on the voting day. You may have to undo what you did last election.

By voting i am choosing tht no one bogus votes atleast on my behalf.

there may be many reasons and counter reason(u will find many in my comments section). but this is one of the most convincing comments. what we see in the country. some pressing issues are get bulldozed by polpulism. we ignore it saying "good politics is always bad economics". why does this happen.

why did farmers let loan waiver?- because a farmer VOTES.
why did slums and illegal immigrants got residential status? becoz they VOTE
why is money spent on rural india more than urban when revenue generation is opposite ?- because our cousins (improverished, they may, still) VOTE
why is country not ready to do a rethink on reservation? -becoz people affected by this change VOTE
why is india still following orthodox legislation issues of gay rights and live-in relationship, etc?
becoz people who wish to countinue of such status quo- get it VOTE (in large numbers)

Chanakya said "you need one reason....."- i have given you many. The notion of what my vote does atleast is shattered, i suppose.




VOTING ENDS 2DAY AT 5PM . IF YOUR NAME IS THERE PLEASE TAKE PAINS TO GO TO POLLING BOOTH

VINEET
