CORE VOTING SOLUTION

CORE VOTING SOLUTION (CVS)

Vote for India, Lead India, Dot hai to Hot hai , these campaign is for increasing voting percentage of India but the question is does these campaign really works? If it works then why the voting percentage of is decreasing per election? If we see the voting percentage in last four elections from 1998 to 2009, the number of person coming out to vote is decreased from 50.13% in 1998 to 44.13% in 2009. This is not only with Mumbai only because whole of India is facing this decline.

Does this shows that people are now less responsible for the government or they don’t have choice to select form corrupt politician. Well in my opinion this is not the only factor for its declining voting percentage there is major factor which restrict people to cast their vote.

The main reason which restricts people to cast their vote is unavailability of voter registration and voter ID card. Now people are not a permanent resident of a particular state, city or locality. According to job and other factor people of Punjab are in Mumbai now and people of Mumbai are in Punjab and the old voter ID becomes waste for their new location and they can’t vote. Everyone is not Amir Khan and Sharukh Khan who takes flight to Mumbai from US and South Africa to cast their vote. So this becomes impossible for a common people even for middle class which are the major section of India’s population and staying at various parts of India.

If you see the figure of voting percentage only 40-50% vote is castes across India except  north eastern state which is having a very good data of above 70% every election and in Mumbai it is only 44.13% which almost equal to Kashmir. Leaving north eastern state all state have similar figure of voting percentage.

Is this correct picture of india’s hudge population of above 18 is votes 44% , my answer is no. as many are not in the list and many have shifted to other place from their native place. So only 5-10% elects our MP and this is bitter truth of largest democratic country.

I started thinking about the solution of this big problem which is going to rise further and further and I got an idea of  “Core Voting Solution”.

Core Voting Solution (CVS) will be a System Application Program with its central data base situated at any part of India under election commission of India. This CVS will take data of all the Indian people with their proof of identification like DL, PAN card etc and then the whole data will be created and stored in that central data base. Suppose a person moves from Kochi to Mumbai he can vote for his candidate from Mumbai itself for Mumbai candidate by just filling a transfer from online from the election commission website. But for that the person should have being staying in Mumbai from the last 2 years. That will give enough exposure of what that location need and what are the demand of common people there.

 Making everything online will ease the voter as well as election commission. I am not bragging only educated person who can fill the transfer form sitting at home but for uneducated person we can put special camp where they can go and fill the transfer form with the officer sitting there. So if will go to vote from anywhere in India just take out the print of your voter ID with a proper serial number and go to use your right in selecting a proper politician.

CVS will defiantly help in solving constantly decreasing voting percentage and then we can say that our PM or CM is purely elected one form the largest democratic country that is INDIA .

  5. Practically it will be defenetly possible, juz like roaming of a mobile SIM, serial no. of a viter ID shd be unique, and by keeping database we could find every indian's histroy, even if they were staying other thn their native town/city, on the otherside, awareness shd be created among people abt the seriousness of this issue, so tht the result will be obtained atleast half,.........
    changing from parties to parties and keeping allainca shd be restricted for the politicians, so tht the corefans of tht party will be benefited, ritesh can u do work abt core fans and parties allainces...........
