Voters, not Political Parties, are Responsible for the Criminalization of Politics

You will tell me what would people of the country do if the politicians standing in elections are all just not up to the mark.

Yes, one would think of NOTA (None Of The Above). But what happens if NOTA tops maximum votes, it is the second highest party who wins the position. Here since we are assuming no parties are good still we have a party elected. What happens next? We are on the hands of criminalized politicians.

Which concludes that criteria for standing in elections should be made strict be it education background or experience. So that people won't refrain from voting any party.

As per my opinion, yes this is voter who is responsible for criminalization of politics b/c we are the person who elect to them by casting our votes. We should not forget we are living in a democratic country where governance is of the people, by the people and for the people.

We voters have right given to us by our constitution to elect our representative but if are electing the wrong candidate based on their cast or some personal benefit then we are solely responsible for our backwardness not politician, they are also part of this society. They are just using us to get power and then exploit resources for all five years.

It is seen that, even if some MP or MLA is found to be corruption charges against them, we again elects such person in the next election. And this encourage them to do more corruption.

So want to say that this is not politician but we people are responsible for corruption b/c we cast our vote to inappropriate candidate who do not have good background.

First of all I'm not blaming any individual person but tell me one thing the reason of communal riots, violence specially the time of election. Who is the responsible for this? Political parties make a situation for make a huge no.of vote. That's my view.

Hey, no I don't think so, voters have their own choice to choose their leader. And if no one among the candidates are eligible to become a good leader still voter has to vote so he may vote random person so complete his responsibility but which is totally wrong. Today concept NOTA is present so that we can tell leaders that we don't want you.

Worst thing is voter is like God for all politicians at the time of election but after election they forget their God so even if voter is doing his job properly some political parties are creating mess so I request them to please if you have so much capability of becoming leader then do change our system and make our country corruption free.

Thank you!

Hi friends.

No absolutely not because every voter choose his/her leader thinking that he will serve his country but what will happen he do don't know. And why anyone will want that his country will be filled up by corruption. They are the leaders who make the country like present.

Hi friends this is Shashank.

In my point of view political parties are not responsible for Criminalisation of politics. Voters are only responsible for this. Why because they are chosen the politicians. How many politicians in a party are being honest in our country we know about that.

Conclusion.

In my view voters are the responsible for criminalisation of politics.

Please, tell me the name of one national political party of India that have all it's members with an honest image (I mean, with no criminal charge). Today, the politicians with a "neat and clean" image can be counted on fingers. Voters as well as political parties both are responsible for the criminalisation.

Voters (especially in villages) vote on the basis of caste and religion without caring about the actual image of the candidate. Political Parties, who see benefit in having such candidates who have much influence on the people. We must choose the person whom we like the most but we have to choose that person which is least disliked by us.

Hi,

Political parties are not responsible for the criminalization of politics, because the real power is in our hand. Instead of enjoying political debate in our TV sets with our utmost comfort we move out of our house and question the person whom we have elected, and ask him if he has done his part of the which he/she has promised at the time of election campaign.

Voters are responsible, because they have power to choose the leader. But all voter won't be knowing qualities of the contestant they will know them only what media show. It is also the responsibility of party to give ticket to worthy contestant.

Hi friends,

-> Voters may not be found fault every time because in some countries there is no option for people to elect, as they were forced to elect only some persons by monarchy form of govt.

-> Present political parties are in such a way that they want to invest a lot of money on behalf of elections so that they can refund their invested money in few days when they get the power.

-> For them to win they are attracting people by following mal practices.

-> So being a well educated we have to keep in mind who can serve people well and we have to vote for that person. Similarly all the well educate should illiterate people not to attract with any thing that is shown by political parties.

-> We should keep in mind "Political parties always try to cheat if people are ready to be cheated".

-> So vote the right person who enhances the prosperity of government.
