Can you Vote Right, When You Fail to Think Right While in The Queue to Vote?

I was accompanying my friend to the near by voting booth. He was probably the first few to turn up at the booth; most of being polling officials and polling agents. 

The vote started 40 mins late. Am aware woman voter did register her displeasure at the slow process while looking at her watch. Definitely, she was not concerned about being late to office; all offices in Hyderabad has declared a holiday today. May be this impatience of dealing with Govt. has made us one of the most unengaged citizens with the Governance in the world.

But, still I could see the positive of that impatience; she was aware of her rights i.e. 7 AM is the time to start the voting machine.
But, the subsequent incident laid bare the weakest Indian in us.

What?
Read on. 

As people were in queue and understandably agitated for being late by 40 mins, few fair Skinned Indians (Mother, Stylish Son and fashionable daughter) were escorted into the booth.
I shouted standing outside the queue, "What is this! PM of India has the decency to stand in a queue and they do not have. Should not you guys in queue oppose this?"
Surprisingly, the previously agitated voters due to delay went in MUTE mode.
Even more surprising, when these PRIVILEGED Indians were in, to show their frustration the voters tried to stop a senior citizen couple on CRUTCHES to vote by jumping the queue.
If we do not know what is right or wrong; then how come we vote right.
I have to shout, "If able bodied Indians were allowed the privilege why not Senior citizens!" Then only they were allowed."
Some might think, that I am showing off, but I am showing off because I think If I can, then you can too.
Speak Up!

Why does not Narendra Modi deserve to be my Prime Minister?



“If you do not tell the truth about yourself you cannot tell it about other people.” 

How can man be my Prime Minister, who LIES about himself? 

That is what the world saw how a man was doing it consistently for the last 12 years of his political career. He has fought four elections three as CM and one he is yet to for the PM post. In all the these elections, baring the PM one, he kept the Spouse column empty in the election affidavit to the returning officer while filing nomination.

WHY not THEN? and WHY, only NOW?

A photo will go here

Effectively, he lied under OATH. I am not interested whether he was married or not, What I am interested is in the curious case of sudden appearance of the FACT when SC made it clear that all the affidavit has to be complete. So, why did MODI fail to admit that he has a TECHNICAL wife in prior affidavits? Deliberate or a miss? As circumstance suggests, this is not a miss as a miss can not be that CONSISTENT. 

Some Imedia OUTLETS refer this pertinent question as PERSONAL matter and there should not be such low level discourse in the election. Isn't it funny? They themselves have reported in previous occasions these: 

Chief Minister of Gujarat, Narendra Modi said, “Sonia Gandhi is a Jersey cow. Even shopkeepers are not ready to employ her as a clerk. Rahul Gandhi is a hybrid calf, and I will not even employ him as my driver.” (2004)


BJP leader, Vinay Katiyar said, “Disaster struck the Nehru-Gandhi family ever since Sonia became bahu of that family. That is why people compare her to Gandhari of Mahabharat and Helen of Troy,” 

Former defence minister, George Fernandes said, “What is her contribution to the nation? The two children she gave birth to. She has contributed two people to the 100 crore population of our country." 

 Note: Sandwiched between his wife and his companion :)

You can Google and find for yourself many more such gutter level abusive articles, journals, blogs, comments etc. about the poltical leaders of Congress starting from The Mahatma. Clearly Modi is not only a liar, he is also an ABUSIVE man. 

Some INTELLECTUALLY BANKRUPTS counter these by promptly pointing at one famous line Sonia uttered "Maut ka Saudagar" without naming MODI (2007)




These defenders of the indefensible at least refer to the highlighted year when the comments were made by Sonai and Modi in my blog; as I do not consider them to have the CONSCIENCE to judge what is abuse and what is a political statement. 

Can such a man be my PM? Who has could not have the courage to speak a truth about himself? Who can abuse his political rivals with such FILTH? Does he qualify to be a Political activist in a thriving democracy like us? 

I do not know about your CHOICE, but clearly my sensibilities can not digest this. 

There are endless items in the list of Modi LIE. I am not going to write them all here; certainly in my subsequent posts. Stay tuned.
