I am Adv. George Marx from TLRF. Everyone are eagerly waiting for April 6 TN assembly election. I am regularly recording about the interesting facts about elections. Now we are directly electing the representatives to Assembly and parliament. The department does this is called as election commission. This was formed in the year 1950. Even during the times of Britishers elections was conducted in our country. Now people who have completed the age of 18 are eligible to vote. But in earlier days without voting rights it was divided into provinces. Now the states are divided on the basis of the language they speak. Those who speak Tamil are in Tamil Nadu, those who speak Malayalam are from Kerala state. Earlier it was called as Provinces and these provinces were ruled by viceroy and Governor. And they were not selected by people rather they were nominated and not all who have attained certain age dont have the right to vote. Those who have assets, those who are paying land tax, those who own land, those who have finished their graduation can only vote. Dr. Baba Saheb Ambedkar was the first person to voice on giving voting right to everyone. After his this demand, people's representatives should be elected was considered. The round table conference Dr. Ambedkar took part and said all the age attained citizens of India should be given the right to elect their representative. This was criticized by many saying what an illiterate, poor and person without land will do by voting. And many condemned the suggestion of voting right to all age attained citizen. Especially our Father of Nation Gandhi condemned this concept of voting right for all. Later Dr. Ambedkar withdrew his statement and came up with the new proposal of voting right for age attained scheduled caste and tribe people. Britishers accepted this and gave voting right to age attained scheduled caste and tribe people. After that on January 26th, 1950 voting right was given to all age attained scheduled caste and tribe people and all age attained Indian citizens. Till then not everyone had the right to vote. For this the only person who fought was Dr. BR Ambedkar. After 1950 how elections happened? how elections are happening? who were election officers? Lets see all these in forth coming episodes.
Asst 1: What bro, why are you hiding yourself at home? Did you get scared of the summer season? VM: I think tolerating heat is easier than tolerating with election candidates. OMG!!! SO many promises. I will come home daily and feed you is the only line pending to say!!! Asst 1: Hell!!! Yeaaa bro. Ok.. To whom are you planning to vote? VM: Don't ask that sad story. Asst 1: WHy bro??!!! VM: In last election, i voted for TKK party. The party lost the election miserably. For previous to that election, I voted for KKK party, even their deposit was empty. Before that election i voted for AKK party, after the election, they dissolved the party. Asst 1: Bro. you are a lucky charm. VM: Yea boy!!! Somehow after going to court for so many years, finally i won one case. Asst 1: Yes. VM: BUt the party to which i vote is losing miserably. Asst 1: Bro, if you tell, to whom you are going to vote, immediately i will know the election result. VM: That is the problem. Asst 1: What are you saying bro!!! VM: Junior, by knowing my luck, all party people are coming to me and bothering me to vote for the opposite party and they are ready to pay any amount. Asst 1: SO you will make good money during this election. VM: Come one... That is where the problem is. Asst 1: WHat bro? VM: Its ok if they are leaving it by just asking me to vote for the opposite party. But they have threatened me and told that they will kill me if their party loses the election. Asst 1: Is it??!!! Then better you don't vote bro!! VM: Nooooo!!! A person will not become a citizen of the country if he has a ration card or the adhar card. He will be a real citizen only when he votes in every election. Asst 1: True bro. But your life will be under risk if you vote. Bro, better vote for NOTA. VM: Wait, I know Lota and Beta, what is NOTA? Asst 1: Bro, if you ddnt like any candidate, you can vote for NOTA. VM: Then better i will sit at home. Asst 1: Even that is also correct. VM: I cannot do all that. Asst 1: Ok.. But what are you going to do? VM: Junior, I am not sitting quietly on this. From past 4 days, i am laying down in the terrace and hanging near the mango tree, finally, i came to a conclusion. Asst 1: My goodness!!! You have taken so much of risk. VM: OH yeaaa. Listen here. rather thn seeing the winning party or losing party, Asst 1: Ok. VM: Not by seeing as big party or a small party, Asst 1: Ok VM: By seeing the capabilities of all the candidates in my area.. Asst 1: Ok.. VM: Without getting any money for vote. Asst 1: Aha.. Ok.. VM: I have decided to vote for the one who is really hard working and work for the people. Asst 1: Great.. VM: Even if its independent candidate. i will vote for that person. Asst 1: That's wonderful. Bro, if everyone starts thinking like you and vote accordingly, all corrupt and unfit people will vanish and real people ruling will take place. VM: Don't underestimate our people because they sitting quietly. If our people think to do it, they will do it. Asst 1: They have to.
