Counting Vote!!

Now the vote is over, its counting time and deciding who the junta has decided to be the PM. There are breaking and building of alliances. So many hearts are breaking every now and then. So many rumor’s floating around. People who casted their votes are also tensed. Whom they have chosen to rule the country. A big relief in all this is that people have something else to watch while they get bored with Politics. This is the 1st time we have a game going on in parallel to vote. It is a disaster. Media is in full swing pulling out information of politics and cricket. Both at the same time is definitely not a very easy job. People are time passing watching IPL rather than Politics. Some lost faith in cricket started following Politics. In all media is having a lot of news to cover.

So everything is upgrading. Media is warning and deciding, or rather we can say betting on the turmoil of events. They are keeping a lookout at every Politicians, noting all their movements. In this turmoil, something is getting lost. The voice of common people is not getting heard any more. Security for the common people is now given totally to the Politicians, who are more in danger as their colleagues are running with a dagger with them. They actually are never hit by any terrorist attack or any road incidents. They even do not travel on broken, full of pothole roads. For them we have the best road in town, the best is to be provided to them after all. So what is the affect on commoners, who has put their valuable vote and has the hand to select the next PM. Well they sleep in dark. The roads are without lights. Telephone connections are out of order. Roads half built are left unfinished. Police men are busy with MLA’s coming and going out of the city. They do not have time to respond to you.

So you put in your valuable well thought decision and you are forgotten. So that’s what vote is for?

If you still think we are far better, let me explain you some first hand experience. The Voting day at my home town saw a dark road. No lights for the voters. They have done their job for the day. Now let them stay in dark. :) 
In Pune, my home away from home, authorities did not bothered to update their deal with TATA for electricity in the city. Why shall they do? We had already voted for our favorite political party. They will take the throne in few days time. Let them decide. Let them wander. Why we do it. But do we not remind them that the customer is the ruler?
This is just what I have seen around me. Nothing more. If we have our poor voice raised, every person involved in voting a new PM has experiencing at least 2-3 issues during vote.

So why we are voting? For better? When will we get to that? Is it even possible?
