How to Vote??

The election fever is on… every politician is campaigning in his/her own way and pleading the public to vote. In fact, from last several years they have started asking to the public figures from the entertainment and sports industry to join hands and beg votes for their election party. Advertisements on radio/television get start airing from 5-6 months before the elections. These days, a guy called RAJ asks people to wake up and vote (Jaago Re campaign), so are doing the bollywood people. All of them are asking the Indian mass to come forward and vote on the day of election. But I have certain queries regarding the voting system of our country.
If a person is not in the town where he is eligible to vote, what is the alternative for him to vote? I would take my own family’s example…….. I am eligible to vote in Bhopal since my voter registration has been done from there. Similarly, my husband has his registration from Hardwar. But we have made our family in Gurgaon now, so we can’t move to Bhopal and Hardwar for voting. Isn’t there any alternative wherein we can get to vote in Gurgaon??? I guess, the answer is NO.
Why isn’t this flexibility allowed to us that even if we are not in the city where we have been registered for voting, we can go and vote in the city we are at present? If today I want to vote, I need to go through an altogether new and lengthy process and get a fresh voter card for me to vote.
In this scenario, a question arises in my mind…. Why we, the new generation people who are pretty tech-savvy people, can’t be given the right to issue voter card through internet, SMS etc. Government has introduced computers and internet into all the sectors now. We can pay our telephone/electricity/water bills online now. We can book our railway/air tickets online now. Everything is done online these days not just in the private sector, but in govt. sector too. Then why can’t the govt. introduce a new act of online registration for voting????
We get hell lot of calls for new insurance scheme, new postpaid plan etc from the private companies…. Why can’t Electoral Commission take such initiative to call up every citizen and ask whether they are eligible to vote, if yes, then which city they are in and where are they going to vote?
I believe that most of the educated people who have the sense of voting the right candidate are from the middle-class educated background. And to be precise, middle class people are mostly the people who keep migrating from one place to another due to their job. To take a small example, if a town has a population of 1000 people (according to the count held for the last elections) out of which 700 are majors and are eligible to vote but out of this 700, 300 have shifted to other places due to their jobs. Out of these 300, 250 are not able to register themselves for new voter card. Reason can be any like date of issuance expired, unawareness etc. it means there is a loss of 250 votes out of the gross of 700. It means, 250 VOTES are not utilized. This is just a rough idea. Just imagine how many votes go wasted just because of these kind of reasons.
Isn’t this a big loss???? Who’s responsible for this big loss then??? Is it We, the people. Or those who intentionally don’t make the required changes done? On what basis, are they appealing then… VOTE FOR US!!!!
