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

From my perceptions voters are also responsible for increasing criminalism in politics. We can see in our political system a strong but criminal candidate contest in election and he elected a big majority just because of our voters because voters don't think about good candidate he only think whose candidate fulfil my short term benefit just like money, liquor anything. So its depends on voters to elect a good candidate. And eliminate corrupt candidate.

Hai friends, In my point of view politicians are responsible for the criminalization of politics they are not working for the benefit of people they work only to fill their own pockets. We can't blame people to elect them because we have a option only to select from the rotten eggs. We can only select which is not worst rotten. But now I am happy for NOTA option we can throw all these politicians out of politics if we use correctly.

Hi.

In my opinion, the people who do not vote are responsible for this & I think if they are not willing to vote, they have not any right to criticize the elected one. If people are not happy with the candidate then they can use NOTA i.e. none of the above option but wasting the valuable vote is not the real solution for this.

According to me both voters and politicians are responsible for criminalization of politics, because from so many years people are addicted to take money to vote for a particular politician. So the politicians also thinking that, they took money for voting me then why should I survive them, because of these reasons the politic system is corrupted mainly. And if the voters want something which is not in legal way then they are giving money as well politicians are taking money from them and some politicians are giving value to rich people only and some politicians are being irresponsible, because of all these reasons our politics are corrupted.

So according to me both voters and politicians are responsible for criminalization of our politics.

According to me, politicians are responsible for criminalization of politics.

Voters, not Political Parties, are Responsible for the Criminalization of Politics can be treated as same as the gun, not the shooter, is responsible for killing a person. Politicians fearlessly take advantage of innocent people to accomplish their need or greed, whatever you say.

There has always been a dilemma in choosing government. There is about 80% corruption in the government. Do we voters have any other choice to elect any non corrupt party unless there is one. Voters choose government hoping that the government will surely live up to its promises. There may be some voters who take bribes and work in the favour. But that electorate does not account for much. We cannot take our frustration out on voters for the misdeeds or wrong doings of politicians. Stringent laws must be made to deter the politicians.

I understand the conditions of uneducated people in villages. So, the regarding information or knowledge must reach to these citizens either through some kind of special programmes or any other way. And stop blaming voters.

I don't think that only voters are responsible for the criminalization. Voters take bribe/amount offered to them for their vote by politicians. It is time to think over, why these people are forced to do the things like these ? or why these people accepting this way ? While taking these offers voters are thinking only about their temporary problems. If we get 2000 per vote, which need of our family will be fulfilled. Should we repair our shelter or give education fees or child or take monthly food or purchase new dresses for children or save for further emergency exp.

So, if poverty is removed from our country then only people/voters think about nation and its progress. Even fundamental need are not fulfilled properly, then what have to do the common people with nation and its progress. Money is centralized with few people. If we are giving the vote to suitable candidate his mind is also getting changed. Leaders have no fear. They making good collection of money during their terms. And if people don't give vote for next time what will happen? if suppose they will caught in corruption cases they simply leaving their seats/positions. What about funds/money they have stolen.

To control these things law must be tighten and total system must be changed.

Thank you.

According to me, voters to a large extent are responsible for the criminalisation of politics. Yes it is true that the education facility in India is improving but till now a large part of our population are illiterate. The leader or the decision of selection of the leaders in politics is in the hand of public, but in India politics gives bribe to people to motivate them to support that politicians and the illiterate people accepts that. Not only illiterate people well educated people also takes bribe from politicians. As because it is in our hand to select the right candidate we have to first read the details of the politicians before choose them.

According to my point of view voters are equally responsible as our political leader for the criminalisation of politics as they know everything inspite of not casting vote they give their precious vote to someone who is not deserving just because of lack of awareness among some rural people and if we talk about some urban people they do not take election poll seriously as they are so much busy in their life.

Acc.to my point of view regarding the issue, voters to a maximum extent are responsible for the criminalization of politics. IN a country consisting of approximately 1.27 billion population only 74% are literate, which means a quarter is still under the umbrella of illiteracy that does not have any knowledge about the meaning of democracy neither do they have any idea of its basic functioning, what is the meaning of MP, MLA RAJYA SABHA, LOK SABHA. What is the basic mechanism of these. How do these work. Though India is a young nation consisting maximum of population aged below 60 still acc to survey it has been found that it consists of 37%of illiterate adults of the world! A huge number, isn't it?

So how can one expect that these people will vote and elect a govt which is upto the mark and works for the amelioration of the nation.

These illiterate voters are more likely to spoil the votes and depressing the total turnout. It is also known that this group is often mislead, intimidated into voting for the crooks and thugs, these are more likely to sell their votes and are kept in the false hope.

Adding to the above point, the country's political parties are more likely to field candidates who face criminal allegations in the districts where illiteracy rates are higher for vote banks!

I was flummoxed to know that the 15th lok sabha consists of some MP's with criminal records. This is such a big shame for the nation that the people who are considered to be the people's representative are themselves corrupt. And to add to the shame is is just because of us who have not elected them and made them our representatives.

In my viewpoint there should be some predescribed criteria for the ones who are contesting elections and for the ones who are eligible to vote which should have at least the basic understanding of what the democracy is all about in the country where the basic system is flawed though making it the world's largest democratic country.

Hence, the responsibility to choose wisely rests on our shoulders to ensure to make the country a better place.

Hello friends. .

Yes I think that is right but. Voters how can judge without any access of news, advertisement, radio. So many villagers vote for wrong political parties. Lastly suffer all public in our country. Its very sad for all people who wrong or right.
