Should voters be given a NOTA (None Of The Above) choice?

Hello.

Dear, friends.

First of all, we need to know why we should be given NOTA.

Because India is a democratic country we should have to respect their voting right. Freedom of expression.

But there is a problem because it does not give the right to the NOTA voters so it seems to be useless if we give power to them then it will be effective.

Thus, we can choose a better candidate for re-election as the leader will have to give a good option.

Hello everyone,

Today we are facing corruption in every field and also our politician are responsible for this.

I would like to say NOTA is a good option for all voters and choose the best for our future we can destroy the corruption when our politician will not be corrupt. I would like to say again NOTA is better than corrupt Politician. We do not care about the money and time because corrupt politician more dangerous in future.

Hi friends,

In my point of view, NOTA is the best option for all the voters because it is the best way for electing the right person and educated person. In order to achieve this youth must come forward and show the people how NOTA helps us to select a good leader for developing our India.

NOTA is very important to each and every individual.

Hello,

NOTA is a good option provided the voters use it for a good cause if they think the candidates are ineligible to participate in the election. Being a democratic country, the constitution provided us with a right to vote, still many educated persons are unwilling to vote. The NOTA system provides them with a vote to not to vote anyone and show their dissatisfaction towards the nominees. Though the ECI has provided NOTA as an option, their main motto is to increase the voting percentage. All the NOTA votes are considered invalid and despite the majority of the NOTA votes the highest majority candidate wins. With some changes in the NOTA system concentrating on abolishing corruption and ineligibility of the candidate. Even if there is 1% of NOTA is recorded in an election that would take lakhs of votes as invalid. There must be a limit to the NOTA votes such that exceeding this limit the ECI would propose a re-election by re-opening nominations.

I think this would make some difference in "giving NOTA choice" to the voters as it gives an opportunity in knowing the people's true opinion.

Thank you.

NOTA means None of the above, so why any of the rejected candidate be given the power to rule. It should be given chance to ruled by UPSC Officers.

Hello.

I think that the NOTA option is good for us because in many places of India where the candidates use power and money to get the vote. In this situation, the voters can easily use NOTA option for an undesirable candidate.

According to me, NOTA choice is the best answer a voter can give to the highly corrupted and uneducated politicians and the best way to select the deserving person. This should be introduced in our voting system as soon as possible.

This option will give the voter the right to vote as well as reject the unwanted persons if they don't feel them be deserving after analysing their previous criminal records and education.

Youth will be encouraged to use their right for a fruitful purpose and this can ultimately lead to the betterment of the society.

According to me, NOTA button will be helpful in a way though it is not a perfect way to choose a better leader. NOTA button undoubtedly provides an option to the voter to not choose any of the nominated candidates and also increases the percentage of votes. But increase in vote percentage merely is not enough. If more than 50% people choose NOTA, re-elections will be held and I don't think carrying out the process of nominations again will help because the political leaders will again nominate the candidates based on their requirement and not according to people's interest. Reelection results might not be fruitful. So there is a requirement of a much stronger solution to improve the political scenario.

Thank you.

I think NOTA is the best way to show the real place of corrupted politicians in government. If they are not able to get that position then we can choose NOTA.

Hi friends, all of here expressed their views regarding NOTA. In my view, NOTA is not a Great idea its good idea because why I am saying is here in our country each person has right individually voted to the person if he doesn't like candidates he simply presses NOTA but what happen finally some body electing as a representative of constitution now tell me where the NOTA votes are considered I think nowhere right just for percentage vote share to NOTA i.e. insense no action has taken regarding votes of NOTA if Election commissioner takes action regarding NOTA"why some or few people has voted it". Then people aware of it and can vote it then only the original intention regarding NOTA will come into existences.

May I concluded this NOTA is a good idea, not a great idea!
