Election of peoples’ representatives

In our country, the mode of selection of peoples’ representative require a change.

It was based on assumption that all the voters will cast their votes, and the candidature will be decided mainly by the party alone, and there will be one or two political parties to contest. But today matters have taken a turn round the corner. Regarding the term majority, a newer definition is to be sought.

Presently only about 75% of the voters go to the booths and out of these, votes are split among various candidates and the person who gathers the highest no: of votes polled candidate wise, get the mandate. (Example: Total polling 75%; votes arrayed like 19.5%, 15.4%, 32.6% 7.5% like that, for different candidates). But when a mere 32.6% vote makes a candidate successful, the fact is that the remaining larger portion – i.e. 67.4% or 42.4% (75% of the electoral roll minus 32.6%) is against him. That means here minority is deemed to be the majority.

It is not fair to maintain such a faulty system. Instead of this, all voters should be allowed to vote for candidates in order of preference allotting higher points to higher preference and the total points earned is to be reckoned as the criteria for selection of the candidate. This can be done by re-designing the software of Electronic Voting Machines. Amendment to this effect is to be made upon, if there is people’s will. And to enlighten the people in such area, intellectuals from all fields should come forward.

Also to end up the present day monopoly of political parties manipulating the election outcome, there should be a two pole representation in parliament and assembly wherein it should be bicameral legislation. There should be twin house management; by one house forming area wise representatives of the people as of now and the other house forming field wise representatives of all class like business, industry, agriculture and other trades, void of parties who will not be granted any form of gratification as a parliamentarian, save for his protection of emoluments in the respective fields.

This will help to make a change in the present day party politics; when the pulse of horizontal and vertical cross sections of the society will be reflected in course of in-house decisions and will tend to prevent corruption to a larger extend.
