As the title says which party are you voting for ??? If i voted for anyone ,, it sure wouldn't be congress ....


Congress --- the so called "secular" parties .. achievements -- messed up the economy by giving in to populist measures like
1.Rural Employment Generation Scheme (even govt admits that it is just sinking money coz of corruption) ,,
2.Sixth Pay commision (clerks being given 17000 per month for passing files around ,, babus given 80000 for just sitting in an a/c office) ,, no accountability and no incentive for working hard.
3.stupid Fiscal & monetary policies ,,
4.being in denial and lying to the public about recession (as recently as last week Kamal Nath says that India will grow at 7 % this 2008-2009 )
5. weak in dealing with homeland security ....
6. won 8 oscars for India



SO WHAT ABOUT U GUYS ??

Ummm, Guys... polls like these are banned by the election commisiion, not just TDF rules. Aren't they?
I mean, exit polls are banned already. These are against the alw unless I'm much mistaken.

Will turn 18 only on May 31st, so no vote.

As for parties, Communalism is as bad as Capitalsim is as bad as Communism.

BJP, Congress, Left - all PHAIL. But congress is still slightly better off than the rest.

We need something away from religion, which can exploit capitalism to maximum when world economy is thriving and which can use nationalised banks with inputs from communism when world economy is dying.

congress..manmohan seems a far better choice than advani who is busy ranting as to who is the weakest pm ever...he seems to talk about only one thing...don't see what he has to offer..pm should have a basic integrity which advani doesn't seem to have...attacking the pm is a crappy strategy by the bjp...would rather see them talk about development...manmohan seems like a genuine nice person..

but this is only possible if i get my voter id card...seems to be taking ages to come man...so might have to sit at home then.. :p

Ramdoss' party switched sides to side with AMMA :D {both of them with the 3rd front} so i don't think he'll become a minister .. let alone a health minister ;) {unless they switch sides yet again...politics main kuch bhi ho sakta hai :)) }

I disagree with most of the issues OP has with the party, and given our current political climate, I think Congress is one of the lesser evils in our country right now.

Oh and if Advani becomes PM, good luck India, you're in trouble now! :)

hi guyz..

Its sad that every govt in our country s bribed till brim tats becoming a common thin, still u should ve heart to spend for country too..for example LAlu s good one... there s considerable change in railways n we kno of him before railway minister was a one of bribe taker.But still he has done somethin in railways n thats good..overally may be it would be good if young generation peep out..lets C..but reality would be voting for no one..Either do congress or Bjp are perfect..Bjp was good till vajpaye i admire him a lot now its advani its totally an thumbs down for him..Congress those cheaps man ..totally in this 123 deal they were Craps bringing an minister who s a murderer just for sake of gettin on deal..bloody cheaps..So to end wit it India needs a Change..Which wouldn b delivered by both parties..

@@iinfi :: i think that the Election Comm has more important things to do than banning such discussion on forums .... anyways is it really illegal ???


@@ faraz ::well ,,religion based politics is nothing new for either BJP , Congress or the third front .... ... i am only concerned with the economic performance of government which was disastrous to say the least ... dude i am not forcing u to believe anything but just think over it ...
1.NREG was a big failure even before the word go .we all know wat the public distribution system PDS is like and hoping that NREG wud succeed was a utopian imagination stretched too far ....
2.waiving farmer loans was even more stupidier ,, instead of addressing the real problems that a kisan faced it was more of a populist measure .. also it wud be a long time before it actually happens (ex. Maha did a similar thing way back in the 60s-70s but it still is in paperworks )
3.plus the new government wud inherit a huge fiscal deficit in a time of recession

our leaders are busy saying that inflation is down but the truth is that people dont eat cement or H2SO4 .Consumer Price Index is still very high and hence the budget of the common man hasnt really come down ...

this sud not be discussed. atleast in public ..isnt it?

i think this is must to be discussed in public because we are public and we have the right to vote then why dont we have the right to discuss who is better. This is very important to know the thoughts of everyone.

No one.. All of them are crooks.. To hell with them.. They don't deserve my vote..

In my view you must vote, because if you did not vote then somebody vote on your behalf(i.e. cheating). if you dont want to vote then you can ask for a form i dont know the number of that one it is a antivote form. this form means you are unsatisfied with every party and the candidates.


BTW, i will vote for congress, my reason behind this is the nuclear deal, because i think that it is very important for india. also so many other reasons to vote for congress.

I vote for some random person or someone else votes for some random person on my behalf.. Does it make any difference? :p
if you dont want to vote then you can ask for a form i dont know the number of that one it is a antivote form. this form means you are unsatisfied with every party and the candidates.
That form does JACK! 1. I disclose my vote (which is supposed to be confidential) and 2. My vote is not even counted..

aamir khan said one true thing !

there should be one option "no one" in the vote .
and if this vote comes to be maximum then all the leaders appearing in the elections should be banned for 5 years (as no one wants to vote them that means they are useless). People other than them will be allowed to appear in elections .

"naya desh apni padhi likhi janta hogi leader" :grin:
thats a brilliant idea !

i heard this first time, it is the best idea given by aamir khan. and i think election commission of india must acquire these.

I vote for some random person or someone else votes for some random person on my behalf.. Does it make any difference? :p

That form does JACK! 1. I disclose my vote (which is supposed to be confidential) and 2. My vote is not even counted..

yes there is a great difference if you dont want any leader to rule and if you vote any other person then there might be possibility that your candidate won and the person you dont like to rule loses.

I'm sure there is already a law relating to this. if a citizen does not need to vote for anyone in their area.. they can vote for none and there is some percentage of vote which will make the candidates unfit for some future period of time.

may be some lawyer can put light on this.

If I think correct there is a None option.

yeah....i heard a term few days ago in media...."-ve voting" that means a new option must be introduced(hypothesis) in the voting m/c where along with all the candidates nd party names, "none of the above" exist. That means, if u dont like the above candidates, choose the none of the above option and go for -ve voting......but dont know, what happen if the "none of the above" option wins.:shock: :D [i might be wrong!!!]


aur jaha tak baat hai current voting ki i think we must vote to the candidate not his party.......!!! As, all parties are almost equivalent
confused!!
Apr 9, 2009 at 11:57 PM
I will urge all the guys who are eligible for voting to go and cast your vote..There must be someone who will be better than others..till the time you don't vote, you don't have any right to speak against the government.

BTW I will be voting BJP
