No need of that in fact if someone doesn't want to give a vote for candidates why should he go for voting.

Yes, I think voters should be a given a choice as NOTA at the time of elections. Most of the candidates who stand for votes in an election are corrupt, disqualified that's why our country is behind countries like Japan, china etc. If people think none of the candidates is suitable to give votes, then NOTA will be their choice. If votes on NOTA is more than 75%, then the government would be forced to take necessary steps against the candidate who stands up for elections. Most of the candidates who are puppets of some political parties would then fear to stand for elections.

For a developing country like India, it is vital that a candidate should be qualified and have the potential to make our country free of corruption, poor, illiteracy etc.

With Nota, people will not do anything about politicians. Because if they use Nota I mean they not like any candidate. There is no effect on any party.

Yes, I think it gives to people. Because when leaders are not good then people have to choose to give the vote in NOTA. It also uses full for knowing the image of leaders.

Yes, it is right to give an option of NOTA because in today's tine everything includes in the limit of politics. If there is a mishappening is their, political party arguing each other without know the exact reason behind the scenario. Today's politics is totally based on appeasement which is not good for the communal harmony of the country and people also censure it but people have no choice to change it. If NOTA is regulated then the political parties also realise and thinks for the betterment of people and they must focus on the development of the country.

Yes, I agree with this. Because from many years the campaign by the political leaders was like traditional marketing. They started to think that what they present, people will choose. But in the soul of heart of the people was not interested to accept this type of politics but they had no chance. So most of them started to neglect to vote. Therefore, the democracy started became weak. But now when people have the chance to vote obviously for nobody but for democracy. So, the voters should be given a NOTA.

Yes, NOTA is given to voters for option. It will be a great dicision towards the awareness of voters to our poltics. Some youngsters don't like any candidate in elections and we say that they don't like politics. So they give NOTA option in election just to say that none them is able to compete election.

As per my view, NOTA is good step to change the mind set of people towards democracy. In India, people not able to stand in elections only those people stand who got it by their forefathers and we can't stop them. By NOTA if 70% and above votes in favour of NOTA than it mean there are no right candidate in the election. It is a good way to show our disagreement towards the government. On the basis of this govt takes the eligibility of the corrupt candidate and doesn't give chance again.

As of now, when no importance is given to NOTA, it doesn't make any sense in selecting that option. As one of my mates raised a point that if there are 100 people in a locality, 80 people are going to exercise their votes (most probably). Now, if 30 people among those 80 select the NOTA option, there won't be any healthy competition between the candidates. As a matter of fact, we all know that everyone is corrupted in the system, now the only option we have is to choose the least corrupted one. Summing up in a nutshell one should not waste his vote by selecting NOTA.

Yes, As my opinion, voters should be given a NOTA choice because the negative point is also crucial to evaluate the best candidate for the country. It will give an outlook onto politician to the government. As well as those people who don't wanna give their votes to anyone because according to them all are corrupted here. For them, it will be a good way to show their disappointment. The NOTA votes will depict that how many people are disappointed and displeasure with government work.

So according to me, it's necessary to make a good government.
