Centre Opposes Negative Vote concept

Centre tells SC no scope for bringing in negative,none of the above vote concept

Centre says will not allow people of india to say all candidates are useless or criminal by using vote: none of the above


Peoples Union for Civil Liberties (PUCL) had filed a PIL in 2004 seeking separate slots in electronic voting machines (EVMs) to give a voter the option of "none of the above", if he or she does not want to vote for any of the candidates standing in an election.

This matter is so important but still pending in supreme court of india since
2004.

Though the Centre has opposed the suggestion, the Election Commission in a separate affidavit has stated that it had written to the Union Government as early as in December 12, 2001 recommending such a provision.

Under the existing provisions of Sections 49(O) and 128 of the Representation of Peoples Act, a voter who after coming to a polling booth does not want to cast his vote has to inform the presiding officer of his intention not to vote, who in turn would make an entry in the relevant rule book after taking the signature of the said voter.

our question is what is use of this information and registering,
its better the voter goes and enjoy his holidays.
but this is also wrong. we have to vote whatever happpens.

The Centre submitted that the National Commission to Review the Working of the Constitution had earlier examined the issue of introducing negative votes slots in EVMs but decided not to press for the same as it was not practical.

EVERYONE TODAY KNOWS THAT who is getting elected, gundas and criminals.
be ready to see the people like Sanjay dutt,Abu salem be sitting in our parliament and laughing at us.

SURE Bapu is crying in heaven why he fought for freedom fight,as rightfully
churchill has said, india is not ready for the concept of democracy.

do you agree with this above statement,just think and let me know.

Still we request to supremecourt of india, order the goverment to introduce negative concept.
