At the age of 18 years we get the right to vote in all government elections.

A voter must advocate his right to vote for only such contestant whom he finds worthy to be elected.

In case a voter does not find any sutitable candidate from those who have stood for elections, there must be provision to register NO VOTE i.e. none could be found worthy of being elected.

If this is done then only the sanctity of election can be preserved, and lessons learnt for taking remedial measures, in future elections.

Hence in Indian elections, there must be a separate provision for NO VOTE- and the same should also be considered as a separate entity, in case the number of "NO VOTES" exceed the maximum number of votes received by any contestant.

In such eventuality, the elections should be conducted once again inviting fresh applicatns to stand for elections.

Suitable provision must be made in the Electronic Voting machine, to register for "NO VOTE" i.e. "I(voter) would not like to vote for any of the above contestants."

This will help you know in true spirit, the likes and dislikes of the voteres.

In a great democracy, respect must be given to the opinion of each and every voter, and give due consideration to their thinking & feelings.

Thus we the people of India demand a provision in the Electronic Voting machine, to cast a vote as "NO VOTE" i.e. "I(voter) would not like to vote for any of the above contestants."

    • as per constitution of india we have right to cast 'NO VOTE' at our polling station, in case we do not find contesting candidates are suitable to be elected. In the same time our constitution also gives us right of SECRET BALLET. But as per present system of our ELECTION COMMISSION, we have to ask for SEPARATE FORM from polling officer, Which means our intention for NO VOTE made open and public to... all the polling agents, THUS IT VIOLATE our fundamental right of SECRET BALLET. It is being demanded several time from our ELECTION COMMISSION to have one button for NO VOTE in polling machine. But our so called independent ELECTION COMMISSION continuously defying our right of SECRET BALLET. I therefore request all the VOTERS of MY INDIA to please come forward in this election, go to polling booth and cast NO VOTE,by giving simple reason that our ELECTION COMMISSION is unable to provide our SECRET BALLET right. By this we will not only urge for our right of NO VOTE secretly, but also give a concrete solution for 100% VOTING i order to get real DEMOCRACY.

    • In today's scenerio, "No Vote" can not be ignored. Why do we have to choose the "Better" out of All the "Bad Candidates". We need a suitable one to run the country not just somebody, who doesn't even care.

    • by this way we might have to have rounds of elections, untill we get the right candidate as the awakening of mass is yet not begun, it is a very very slow process, we will have to kepe patience, may be our next generations will benefit from our deeds today, but that does not demoralize us, in fact we should get inspiration from that

    • Every time I go to vote, I feel that none of the candidates is worth voting for ..yet have to vote just so that I am not labelled an 'idiot' as Nana Chudasama's banner would like to label me as. On the serious note, I am forced to vote for undeserving candidates just to save my vote from being misused by anyone. If a 'no Vote' option is available, the results will be alarming and awakening. This will also ensure candidates to prove their work and mattle first and then come to us.
