Election-related concerns taken over by political parties...


It is a fact that election concerns are under the jurisdiction of political parties. In this regard as well, the government's and the ruling party's role is most successful in preventing the actual needs and issues of the populace from turning into political footballs. This is not an election issue in the traditional sense. What accusations or remarks did one party or leader make against another, and what was the front-runner's response? With time, this kind of custom has emerged. The general populace of the nation needs to be more informed on this front.

Political parties and some of its leaders become embroiled in accusations, counter-allegations, and protests, from the streets to the media, when something goes wrong with them or with government apparatus. We also anticipate the public's cooperation and support in these conditions. Conversely, when the general public is handled in this manner, political parties and their leaders are reduced to making a limited number of remarks. In these situations, it is uncommon to witness political leaders or parties engaging in street battles to defend the rights of regular citizens.

It is important to prioritize real issues over political ones

The true significance of any election, including the general elections in India, can only be determined from the perspective of the common people if and when this situation changes. If not, elections will always be a tool used by political parties to seize power and the general public would only be a voting machine on election day. The importance of voting should be understood by the whole populace of the nation. The general public must likewise refrain from acting like party cadres under the parliamentary system. The emergence of this tendency gives political parties a means of avoiding responsibility. Furthermore, these parties find it simpler to manipulate election topics in order to achieve their desired political outcomes.
