I bet, if this is the case with Hyderabad in the 1st phase
of election, its gonna be the same in all the phases with all states included.
I was Not Allowed
to Vote!
May I call it – Flaws in the first phase of General
Elections 2009?
Adding to the negatives of Indian way of management,
here’s an another interesting and the most latest news.
With the new government in making, all Indians
(please include me) were geared up and waiting for their chance to cast vote
and try bringing to fore their favorite or most admired politicians. Voting
phases were announced and days fixed; facilitating the voters to vote (and not
to disappoint them over not receiving their Voter Id’s in time), a “13 proof
system” was brought up, obviously a very great attempt to encourage voting
from
all Indians, I presume.
However, forth came the same old face of authentic
Indian faulty management with voters being denied to vote on the voter day as
their name was not listed in the Voter’s list in the first phase of general
elections in Hyderabad !

How surprising is
that!
“I have all proofs to show that I’m an Indian and
also to confirm that I’ve been a resident here for long”, says a Hyderabadi,
“but wasn’t allowed to vote”
“Not my family alone, the whole of our building inmates
were denied”, adds another.
Lets here this surprising one, “I have a Voter Id
Card even then I wasn’t allowed to vote as my name was not found in the Voters
list. I have been to 3 and polling booths since the morning and none has my
name in it, not even the one where I had voted last time. I’m retired now and
have been in government service all my age, then how should I keep calm at not
being allowed to vote. This is pathetic condition of Indian government. Can
someone take up strongly against this denial of my fundamental right?”
Other views, “I’ve been waiting for long, very
excitedly, as it may sound natural, to cast my vote for the very first time.
However, this dream may still take time to come true, because I live in India ,
where all plans take good time to be implemented successfully!”.
How awful is this now!
Well, to conclude, I’m not sure as when was it last
that these voting officials had updated their voter lists.
Also, I may point that, people living in a certain
city are not to be supposed to be belonging to it. Let’s, for instance,
consider Hyderabad .
Hi-Tech city has the highest number of working population and most of them do
not belong here - they’ve come here from all parts of India .
Now how can you suppose them to be listed in the
Voter list of this area?
And I bet, if this is the case with Hyderabad in the 1st phase
of election, its gonna be the same in all the phases with all states included.
Any comments please……………… I’m all ears!
