Only 53% Indian voters turned out to vote in Election 2009?

May 3rd, 2009

With election fever still on, India has seen that even after the much  needed contribution of Indian voters in this election, on an average only 53% turned out to vote while the remaining 47% stayed back. But this turn out was better than the previous election, when only 45% came out to vote. But the question still remains, with all the terrorism happening in India and every one complaining about the government’s inability to handle law and order of the country, why aren’t people coming out to vote? Does this mean that only Media tries to hype certain groups of people about their constant complaining on various issues or is it that the Indians are now fed up and have lost trust in the politics itself?

With congress trying to act neutral and BJP trying to drive Hindutva concept; many amongst the youth have lost their trust in these political parties. Although there has been a surge in youth showing their interest in this election, in reality only few turned out to vote. Confusion lurkes in the minds of everyone as to whom the vote should go to. With BJP claiming to use iron hand and Congress asking to use intelligence in bringing justice, people are unable decide who to beleive in.

Amidst the confusion, the emergence of third front was another surprise. This is but addition to the present confusion.

let wait for the results and see what the climax would be.
