Lok Sabha elections to be held in seven phases from April, will liquor and chicken change voters’ minds?
India, the world’s largest voter, is going to exercise its 97 crore franchise. Elections for 543 seats in the Lok Sabha will be held in seven phases from April 19 and the results will be declared on June 4. The Election Commission announced this on Saturday 16.03.2024.
First phase-19 April (102 seats)
Second phase-26 April (89 seats)
Third phase-7 May (94 seats)
Fourth phase- 13 May (96 seats)
Fifth phase- May 20 (49 seats)
Sixth phase – 25 May (57 seats)
Seventh phase- June 1 (57 seats) ,And the most important results – on June 4,” said Chief Election Commissioner Rajeev Kumar.
The most important things that we should know –
.1.8 crore voters are ready to cast their vote for the first time.
. The number of people above 100 years of age is 2.18 lakh.
. In 12 states the number of women voters is more than men.
..Far from the most important things but important------
Elections are seen as the biggest festival of democracy and people are also made aware to vote their share, so that they can vote and elect the eligible candidate. If you come from a city, village or any other place of India, you might have heard about proxy voting. In the evening, money of Rs 500 is also given to the members of each house so that they can vote only for that party . It is matter of distress when political parties even give alcohol to people for getting votes.
They provide chicken, rice, cheese or offers sports equipment so that they can buy all categories of voters . These candidates use words like integrity and purity in their brilliant speeches to woo the rest of the public.
The Election Commission said that after intensive door-to-door verification, the names of 1,65,76,654 deceased, permanently transferred and duplicate voters have been removed from the voter list. “This extensive cleanup has been done to ensure the integrity and purity of the electoral process. This includes 67,82,642 dead voters, 75,11,128 permanently transferred/absent voters and 22,05,685 duplicate voters.
Every time we hear that this time it will be changed, then the same thing happens which we hear every time. People are getting educated, now the literacy rate is gradually increasing, people will not change after seeing chicken, rice and cheese.
