“49-O” - Makes sense?? If NO -> Read on

“49-O” - Makes sense?? If NO -> Read on
Did you know that there is a system in our constitution, as per the 1969 act, in section ” 49-O” that a person can go to the polling booth, confirm his identity, get his finger marked and convey the presiding election officer that he doesn’t want to vote anyone!

Yes such a feature is available, but obviously these seemingly notorious leaders have never disclosed it.
This is called “49-O”.
Why should you go and say ” I VOTE NOBODY”… because, in a ward, if a candidate wins, say by 123 votes, and that
particular ward has received “49-O” votes more than 123, then that polling will be cancelled and will have to be re-polled. Not only that, but the candidature of the contestants will be removed and they cannot contest the re-polling, since people had already expressed their decision on them. This would bring fear into parties and hence look for genuine candidates for their parties for election. This would change the way; of our whole political system… it is seemingly surprising why the election commission has not revealed such a feature to the public….

Please spread this news to as many as you know…
Seems to be a wonderful weapon against corrupt parties in India … show your power, expressing your desire not to
vote for anybody, is even more powerful than voting… so don’t miss your chance. So either vote, or vote not to vote (vote 49-O) and pass this info on…

Use your voting right for a better INDIA

Thought - Do we need brokers in between to distribute our taxes to the so called poor man who does not know what tax is??

Thought - Do we need brokers in between to forcefully distribute our taxes to the so called poor man who does not know what tax is. Come on its our money and we get to choose if it should go as alms or otherwise. Read on and think before you vote: "We need a government who spends on upbringing the lifestyle of the city rather than creating a fast growing section of people who do not feel the pinch of being UNEMPLOYED" - Read on - This is an article from the IE

Karunanidhi and Jayalalithaa have started behaving like the famous Ranganathan Street vendors. The ‘buy one get one free’ slogan of the street vendors has been modified into a political slogan ‘Give one vote. Get everything free’.
In their one-upmanship, Jayalalithaa and Karunanidhi have now virtually offered for free three-fourths of the daily and essential needs of a person (obviously below that unknown invisible poverty line). They have to now announce only one more freebie: “We will fix the alliance for the eligible bride/bridegroom in your family and one wedding in every family will be bankrolled by the Government”. Having brokered every imaginable deal, they can easily also become marriage brokers. With their vast experience in rationalism, vasthu, astrology, the two leaders can even offer free astrological advice to every citizen.
For any discerning voter, it would be obvious that the cost of all freebies is again met only by the aam aadmi. The Tamil Nadu Government makes nearly `14,000 crores from its 24X7 liquor sales. According to NGO studies, now every family in the state now has a liquor addict or a habitual drinker.
No doubt the freebies are bad for both the beneficiary and the giver in the long run. No sane economist will ever concede that freebies promote development and per capita capacity to earn and spend. But the short-term goal of gaining votes is what matters to K and J.
What depresses me is the hypocritical attitude of the so-called thinking class, the elite, which includes me and you, the readers. When money is given free to poor, they ridicule it as freebies. Free sops to the industry, though, are called tax exemption by the same elite. Concessions to the poor are called grants and those to the rich are called incentives. In essence both are claimed to be done with the noble motive of lessening the burden of the poor/rich so that they can perform better in their endeavours.
At every citizens’ meeting I have addressed over the last few years, I have asked the audience to raise their hands if they have opted to refuse the free television set. It is depressing to note that very few hands go up. All those who deplore A and J for opening a Pandora’s box of freebies, themselves receive them despite not needing them at all. During flood relief programmes, the elite come in cars to receive the flood relief money given on every ration card of the affected area even though their sturdy houses have not been affected.
In a society consisting of millions of ignorant masses and thousands of educated ‘knowledgeable’ hypocritical elite, only leaders of the caliber of K and J can emerge. Or their clones like Ramadoss or Vijayakanth.

My vote goes to the candidate who does not base their campaign on freebies. Come on who needs them anyways..

Skoda Octavia

I picked up a Skoda Octavia http://www.skoda-auto.co.in/ in June 08. Got it at a good deal at 6.25L for a 2003 version. The condition of the vehicle was amazing. Had visible marks of usage. The performance of the vehicle is awesome. Its always better to have a service done through an authorized garage immediately after buying a second hand car as its worth it keeping in mind all the problems that normally arise out of such cars during usage. The service costed me around 10k but when it came back after service, i should say that the guys at Gurudev Motors Chennai have done an excellent work. I have been using it for 8 months since then with zero issues. The vehicle gives me an average mileage of 16 - 18 kms in city and 20 - 21 kms on highways. I just love my car and this mean machine revs up to 6k rpm without any hassles and has a top speed of 160 kmph. What more can one ask for....
