Politicians - Poll plank agenda

Mallik Karra (Querist) 19 January 2011 This query is : Resolved

>> say.. party "X" before the election say that they will not have any tie-up with party "Y" but later when they fall short of majority they tie up with "Y" what is the remedy available to public who voted for them based on their agenda.

We have anti-defection law to punish those politicians who cut across party line after winning on one party's ticket..
the interest of the political party is protected... but what about the general public who vote based on their agenda or promise and deviate later..

TILL DATE THERE IS NO SUCH PROVISION AGAINST COLLUSION OF TWO OR MORE PARTIES AFTER SHORTAGE IN GETTING MAJORITY TO PROOF ITS CONFIDENCE MOTION OR THE NUMBERS OF MAJORITY

Election Commission of India should soon introduce reforms to check out such election arithmetics than fool the electorate by the politicians.
