BJP vs Congress or Whom to Vote?

I am trying to be completely unbiased in writing this topic... I am writing this because every one should vote and before giving vote we should be clear to whom we should vote

The motive or writing such a contradictory article is not to create contradiction but is to make the picture clear in the minds of people about both the parties. I am trying to write this article completely unbiased.

I m trying to provide the facts in favor and against both the political parties

If I talk about BJP first we all have seen the rule of BJP during their tenure, in my point of view it was successful. And about congress, they have experience of decades. Both are the strong candidates this is what everyone knows but who is stronger this is what public has to decide. But as per today's scenario, people like none of them.

As per the words of tongue congress is secular on the other hand BJP seems to be orthodox

The past record of congress is not good but in present they are doing well by bringing youth. As we can see congress was found guilty in the 1983s massacre with Sikhs. Even the report of 'Nanawali Ayog' proved congress wrong in 'Bhindrawala's case'. Even Rajiv Gandhi was under suspicion for 'Bo-force Scam'.

The strategy which congress adopts to acquire more votes is very attractive. Congress tries to convince common people by going into them which is good as well and they usually tries to go into poor and uneducated because they know this category of people constitutes the biggest vote bank. Most of the educated people believe that BJP can do well but the irony is that lesser educated people vote.

A brief review of Both the Parties:

BJP
Supposedly, Hindu Nationalist party.
Ministers who fight against IIMs drink water out of flower pots and get ill.
Good choice for govt. at center because they have absolutely no idea of how to go about things.
Bad choice for govt. at state level because of crackpot leaders who believe that their religion is supreme and should be force fed to every one else.

Congress -
Thinks that it owns India since its founders participated in freedom struggle.
Gandhi family is its lifeline, will collapse if not for them.
Very dangerous choice for centre, because of dictatorial mindset.
Good choice for opposition at center because they mellow down and support good decisions of the government.
Good choice for govt. at state level because they can't do too much harm.

I am writing the views of a person who has never voten in his life, "I have never voted in my life and will not vote for either. I am waiting for the formation of the Capitalist Party of India. I Will campaign for it if it is formed."

"Vote BJP" for their some good work done while they were in power before UPA govt."

A few days back, I watched a debate in Rajya Sabha on a Private Members bill. One MP wanted to make voting compulsory. Since it is our right, it should be our duty too - he contended. But, he forgot that this is India. People get away with murder and rape. What is the law going to do if you fail to vote?

I was chatting with a guy I met on Live Journal about the way our country is being run and I had this weird idea I thought of long ago. He was eligible to vote for almost 4 years but and He had never vote so far. The simple reason for this was that he really doesn't care. He told that none of the candidates really deserved his vote. And there was no way he could express that. So why not insert another option along with all the other names on the ballot paper saying 'none'. And for every vote that says 'none' deduct 1 vote from all the other candidates. I bet most of them will land up with negative number of votes.

As for the section, here it is:

Did you know that there was a system in our constitution, as per the 1969 act, in section "49-O" that a person can go to the polling booth, confirm his identity, get his finger marked and convey the presiding election officer that he doesn't want to vote anyone !!!! Yes, such a feature is available, but obviously these seemingly notorious leaders have never disclosed it. This is called "49-O". Why should you go and say "I VOTE NOBODY"... because, in a ward, if a candidate wins, say by 123 votes, and that particular ward has received "49-O" votes more than 123, then that polling will be cancelled and will have to be re-polled. Not only that, but the candidature of the contestants will be removed and they cannot contest the re-polling, since people had already expressed their decision on them. This would bring fear into parties and hence look for genuine candidates for their parties for election. This would change the way, of our whole political system... it is seemingly surprising why, and election commission has not revealed such a feature to the public.... please spread this news to as many as you know... Seems to be a wonderful weapon against corrupt parties in India... show your power, expressing your desire not to vote anybody, is even more powerful than voting... so don't miss your chance. So either vote, or vote not to vote (vote 49-O) and pass this info on...

"Can Mr.Narayana Murthy of Infosys become PM?"

"No honest man can become the PM of the country (Manmohan Singh, though honest and well respected by all, is not the 'real' PM). If someone does try, crooks will first try to buy him off. If that fails, they will try character assassination. That is why politics has acquired such a bad name - it stinks."

A Hard Tested severe RULE can destroy disputes and wrong things. So hard rules for the politicians can be brought up so that they r scared to some extent. Rules like cancelling the citizenship of the particular politician who engage in serious briberies can make them aware of a true government. Of course it is not easy to stop this bribery completely but we can control it to some extent and the briberies, very naked, will be stopped. This post can be leaded by youths, especially, the sons and daughters of the opposite parties. Keen observations can be made by them because nowadays youth are the most expected ones for developing our nation, and also the opposite party will only notice the person's wrong actions than the leader from his own party who would only support his mistakes.

 

Should educated people vote?

Elections are near and many of the educated people don't want to vote because they find none of the parties suitable. But here the question arises that in a Democratic country how a person could stay without voting as this is govt. by the people for the people and of the people. If someone is not making use the 'by' thing then he should not deserve the 'of' and 'for'. So as a part of democratic country we should vote.

Most of the people think that if government is not doing anything for them then why they should vote. But the reason they don't work well could be that they always try to please poor and uneducated because they know that this is the sector which vote and they don't work for educated because they know that educated people will not vote. That's why they make such policies which are helpful for poor but not for country, e.g. relieving the farmers of loans, because they know that farmers will vote in their favor. But if they will come to know that educated are going to vote then they will be scared of making such policies because ultimately it will affect their vote bank.

Now I have given the valid reasons to vote and it's up to the reader now to decide that have he still not to vote???

So, again should an educated person vote???

The decision cannot be imposed but it's in the hands of educated people.
