Yes, NOTA should be given as an option to the voters. Generally, if a person doesn't like any of the people who is a candidate in the election, that person is forced to give a vote against his/her choice and willingness. So, it is a kind of creates pressure on them to vote. So, voting options should be open-ended just like a research questionnaire.

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.

No, NOTA should not be given according to my point of view. NOTA is simply waste of vote, if a person is selecting NOTA then that person is equivalent to that person who doesn't go for VOTING resulting wastage of vote in both cases.

Hello friends,
I feel that Nota should not be provided for voters. It has been 2 years since the nota have been provided and only 2 % of the votes go for Nota. So it eventually has no impact and incases Nota wins.
There will be re-election which will only waste time and money.

No, voters should not be given NOTA choice, because if everyone go for this choice in votings, then definitely no political party will come in the country. And there will be 99% chance of coming military raj in the country. Also the money wasted on the elections will be of no use. This was started for the benefit of people but I think that this may also go against the benefit of public.

If NOTA is made available than it will create unnecessary chaos. Conducting an election needs huge amount of money and if re-elections are done than huge amount of public money is wasted with time. So I would suggest that vote for the right person who will bring the change.

Yes, NOTA option should be available as we are democratic public and have all rights to cast out opinion, if NOTA candidate got maximum votes it means simply election commission and parties should choose candidates again who are potential and philanthropists as most of the time candidates get ticket on behalf of offering huge amount of money to parties, it will cater corruption and malpractices especially who has criminal records and want to wash off hands through politics.
Again and re-election might create time gap and delay in administration so it should allow either twice or thrice.
This option will put pressure for parties if they won't work better then nobody will go for them.
Major of public 20-30% don't cast vote every year cause political leaders are actually not shaping Indian growth in the right way and we lost.
Partially our trust in bureaucracy so this step will be more effective.

According to me, the NOTA option should be given to the voters and also treated like a candidate in the election. If the NOTA option wins the election then the Election Commission should take necessary steps against the candidates who were standing in the election from that seat. It will not only improve the transparency in the elections but also ensure that the most deserving, dedicated and popular candidates contest the election.
