HOW TO ENCOURAGE PARTICIPATION OF CITIZENS ???

Dear friends !

 

Freedom and Democracy is not forever if not protected by the citizens in a regular course of action.  Till when we are alert and take efforts to protect our freedom and democracy till than only protected.  It is like; " NAZAR HATI.. DURGHATNA GHATI !!"...  I try it in english that is; Every carelessness invites the accident.  So, are we, the citizens, alert ever and takes effort to keep protected our freedom and democracy ?  If so, it is an open secret that the political party in power supported by only approxemate 12% voters.  In other words, the political party in power only represents 12% citizens.  I can describe, it if needed, in due course.

 

So, since the political parties know that they are in need of only 12% voter's support for which they adopts all the tricks centred to get it done.  Why they will be in fear of remaining 82% citizens ? Since they are not united.  And so, whatever the policies made by the political party in power, keeping in view the interest of their supporter class of voter.

 

It will be continued til when all the citizens will not take creative part in elections even to ensure their vote silently.  The main reason of this is discouraging system of elections.  One important reason is that there is no option of "NEGATIVE VOTE" or "NONE OF THEM".  Many other reason are there for such discouragement of voters that I expect from all of you to please indicate.  How to increase voting percentage up to highest extent ???  How to encourage citizens for their direct participation in Governance ???

 

Remember, if voting percentage will increase than required percentage for majority will also be increase which the political parties do not like since they will be in need of a big number of votes which will be difficult for them to arrange or bargain.

 

Please say something and come out of nutrality..... your every word is very important for all of us !!!

citizens just need to be heard ....

they need a place where they can speak, suggest etc...

they need surety that muscle power will not be used....

a surety that there will not be any high level corruption in the voting system....

and need a "BHAROSA" that their vote makes a difference..
