Electoral rolls - Make sure you are in there

So much for cribbing about our country I am one in a million who thinks elections are not their cup of tea. But now when I think back, its people like me who are in more ways contributing to the unclean politics in the country. Its an irony that politics in our country is seen on par with high-rated crime. There are just a few who make the country proud. Dr.Abdul Kalam who is highly regarded not just in India but all over as a visionary. The current MLA of Mylapore constituency S.Ve.Shekar who is known for not taking bribe. But its a shame that in a highly populous country we have to dig out countably few names when we talk about clean politics. I am given to understand that the votes that are not casted by people whom it belongs to are any way cast by other people for want of money. I was appalled at the nerve of a worker saying he cast 3 votes taking money. If such are the people who vote and decide the future of our country, people posting their reaction on social networks to the scams can layoff. Vote! Or just stay shut up, don't crib. I would like to start a movement on Facebook to make sure all well-read folks have a voter's id and vote. May we elect a sane government which take the country forward by a few paces if not by leaps and bounds.
