Now a days we are facing the most effective pillar of democracy "free and fair election". It sounds good to hear free and fair election.Is it actually happens? let see........
we ,people, electes our representatives by elections . we make them our leader so they solved our problems in a convinient manner.
Chhatisgarh, Madhyapradesh, Mizoram, Delhi, Rajasthan and Jammu & Kashmir, 6 states of our country facing hot and shouting activities of elections. Every political party and leader trying to shows other political partie's and leader's black holes, mistakes, wrong decisions etc. They are making thier full effort to exposs the blunders of other political party or their leaders.
Today in a news paper I read an advertisement of a political party with too many mistaking points of ruling party . There was another advertisement bit shifted with it . It was ruling partie's advertisment. This advertisment full of excuses and comments on the opposite party.For information these are the leading parties of India.
After seeing this how can we say ,these are free and fair elections.
These are not free elections- All democracies are systems in which citizens freely make political decisions. Democracy "is government by the people in which the supreme power is vested in the people and exercised directly by them or by their elected agents under a free electoral system."
In present scenario of our country Political parties and Leaders tells us what to do. Our representatives come to us and tells , "This Political party is not good, they'll not do anything for you , they did nothing in five years , give us a chance we will do this and this .............. etc." In this situation how can we say that this is free election.
These are not fair elections- We should have every information related to our reprresentative before elections. Actually It is neccessary to have whole information about the candidate to elect the right representative. But, in present scenario- Political parties presents their candidates before us and we have to choose anyone among them. Political parties presents neat and clean figure of their candidates
before us (everybody knows how much are these tru? ) 50% percent of our voters dont know the realtyof their representatives. they have no information of blunder games of their representatives.
So, How can we say that this is a fair election.
Let find the reason- Are we the responsible citizens of our country? Are we thoroughly knows our rigthsand thoroughly follows our duties?
This is the reason . To have every information about every candidate is our right and to elect right representative on the basis of that information is our duty.
How many from among us who use this right and follow this duty?
When we vote first in our life we are inspired with our parents . We dont know about the great power of vote. We dont have a chance or actually a bit of knowledge about- How to vote and for whom we should vote? This habit panick us till today. Actually Now we have become habitual of being inspired, first time they were parents and now they are Political parties and Leaders.
How can we solve this problem- If everything is going on just like that then the day is not so far when our country will also face another revolution. Chage is need of today.We can change the system by being a part of system. Whenever responsible and alert citizens shall not become a part of system this problem cut the roots of our democrary.
I appeal to every responsible citizen to vote but it should be right and logical.
