I Think Our Voting System should contain Nota. By this we will know whether the people are satisfied with the participants, if no of voters voting for nota is more then we should change the participants and by this, we know how much people are satisfied and not satisfied with the participants.

NOTA as an idea works well only when the voter pool is qualified enough to understand its strength. Present-day re-elections with new candidates will be held only if NOTA acquires 75% of total votes. Observing the stats, I don't think there will be a time in the near future that could satisfy the 75% condition.

So according to me, another solution is to lessen the 75% to 50% to give more strength to people and NOTA ideas.

Both options are right to have NOTA and not in the EVM machine. By clicking the NOTA option it added in the total voting percentage. And if there is no NOTA, the voter makes his choice of the present candidate by a high or low chance.

Hello mates,

Every coin has two sides. NOTA has both pros and cons. NOTA shows the dissatisfaction level of the people.

But, In my point of view, there should not be a NOTA option because the people who don't know NOTA, unknowingly press the NOTA. Because of these activities.

That the election committee should appoint a good elective nominee before the election itself.

Guys, in my personal opinion, In election there should be an option for NOTA. Because some citizen are not like the ruling or opposition government Work and their policy. NOTA option teach them from their mistakes, and next time it will be potential helpful for nation growth and people living standards. Thank you.

Hello everyone NOTA option too good, we have different articles in our constitution but still most of us are not aware for eg: (Right to vote article) do we think "IS everyone voting according to their own VIEWS?" my answer is no because most of us goes traditional approach of voting as their forefathers, relatives, society use to do but rarely on their own views, so first we need to be aware and also make aware to others value of vote, thus we can eliminate the candidate, still if we don't find any of the remaining candidate worth enough then NOTA OPTION IS TOO GOOD with condition follows.

Hello, everyone!

We can definitely have NOTA only if the government should eliminate those who have contested already in the election for the re-conduction of an election when NOTA has more votes than any other parties. Because rather than looking for correct routes it's wiser if we eliminate the wrong routes that we have.

Thank you.

Ya, every voter has a freedom of expression. If they doesn't want anyone in the list they can choose NOTA.

NOTA is mandatory for every citizen of India because it is a democratic country there should be a chance for nonsupport in the election. However, it is giving a chance to find the unsuitable person also in the election. So finally I support NOTA is mandatory in an election process.

Hi everyone,

According to me, NOTA option button is the right choice, but the one who is choosing the option as NOTA might be the wrong choice I think. Because every citizen in society having a choice to choose the correct person for country development, if you choose NOTA means your vote is wasting that means loss of 1 vote.

So as a conclusion I can suggest giving your valid vote to Leader, who is compared to other leaders is the best. I can suggest to government also like along with NOTA option, they must give the option like choosing your best leader in that party.
