Indian politics is suddenly going the online route, there are parties who have launched their web sites, and well, for once if you are on the internet, you would not have missed the Google Ads which splash all over the internet, saying Advani as PM!
First things First
I really am not a keen follower on politics and what happens around, but NOW its that time of the year, when I VOTE, when I EXCERCISE my POWER given to me by the constitution of India and choose the future which Leads India.
I saw LK Advani sharing his views on the Varun Gandhi hate speech issue
And well, I decided, for sure, this is not the man I would like my country to be led by! A man who cannot stand up and take responsibility is not whom I WILL VOTE for! Just playing around with words without coming on a final conclusive stand is not something that you would be able to attract the youth of India with.
You get VOTES in south India, depending upon how Good the saree that you distributed to the Ladies is and same goes for the menfolk with their dhotis
I was travelling to deliver a lecture at one of the most premier institutions of learning in India a couple of days back, and I was lucky enough to share the space for 4.5 hours with a gentleman from a reputed IT Giant in India. Being from Bangalore, he commented
“In South India, people vote, on tha basis of the quality of the Sarees distributed to the women, and the quality of the dhotis to the men, and well, to top it all, depends upon how good the chicken biryani was”
I was amazed at this comment. The most learned class votes for FREE sarees and Dhotis and some food? Talk about Indian politics!
Will I VOTE?
YES! I always have! And I feel its time for all to be aware and decisive and the decision should be based upon, NOT the sarees and the food or the money, but a decision on awareness, on the fact that whatever you leave now, your shildren will be getting it later!
Social Media and the Changing Political Scene
The world of Social Media has changed the landscape. Its a complete shift from people just voting because there families have been supporters of ‘A’ political party, to taking an informed decision! Initiatives like Jaagore.com and Lead India (The Campaign by the Times Of India, Times Group) have refreshed the concept and put in people the quest to know and GO OUT AND VOTE and VOTE the RIGHTEOUS LEADER of the FIRST LOVE – INDIA!
