Faulty system of election system of India

I write these lines not for me rather on behalf of my friend. He is in fact not my friend. In these days we call every contact as a friend in the face book style.

So, I express his thoughts. It was also my thought in my school days. The Centre of the thought is that the faulty election system is root cause of every problem in India and by its eradication our India will become the previous India thousands years i.e. rich & strong, honest & capable, so & so.

Next, as a practical step for implementing his school of thought in improving election system is to give weightege  to votes cast by educated persons in any election. The question arises what should be value of the vote. He could not express his ideas in yesterday’s Coffee House meeting. So, I proceed to help in this article. Let us take the value of a labourer like rickshaw puller/auto driver/road worker etc with an educational qualification upto HSC as 1 (in figure one). Next from HSC to Intermediate it is 2 (two). For the graduates it is 3. Doctors & Engineers have the vote value of a single vote as 4 (four). It is the logic that if this system is introduced, the labourers will not get advantage by selling their votes in exchange of liqiuor / cash distributed just prior to the election day.

My simple question is “Is it possible?”  In the coffee house meeting, a short statured man roared with an effective voice “why not? Everything is possible. ” I casted glance with fearful eyes towards the Indian Napolean and think myself about poor framers of the Constitution of India. They, by their meticulous effort have incorporated the lofty ideas of “equality & fraternity”. I realized my limit of capability of influencing persons particularly my opponents and remembered the proverb “speech is silver and silence golden”. Suddenly, I realize, how the leaders of a big party are forced to remain silent in many occasions. This silence is in spite of their will and even though they know that they are right and with the full knowledge that the man sitting before him is howling like jackal with all sorts of irrelevant points.

That’s why in good old days, the Great saints of India & abroad went to caves for deep learning but the tragedy is that it is not possible today.

Now, I want an image for this article, if we can call this article. I think it will be India / the Constitution of India / the people of India / election scene of India. Let me search the net, 1^st download & then upload here.

Good morning friends on 6^th May, 2013.
