Yet another nonsense bill.

A few hours back the Gujarat assembly made it mandatory for everyone to exercise his voting right.. err.. it's no more a fundamental right... it's now a duty... not fulfilling of which will now be considered a crime. Anyway, I am sure that if it is successful in Gujarat then M.P. will be the first follower. But what amuses me is that how will they catch me if I don't cast my vote?
Let me put it in this way... My Voter ID has got an incorrect address... This is because the place where I live is already registered on the voter list on some other person's name( some guy named Vikas). Inspite of the fact that we are the first and only owner of this house since it was constructed....
So this means even if I cast the vote, the cops are going to incarcerate me. 'Cause I don't think 'Vikas' is exercising his unlawful voting right any more. So why should I care about going to the polling station when they don't have My correct address and the person registered with my actual address is just an electoral apparition.
There are thousands perhaps hundreds of thousands of such cases. Where Voter ID has such discrepency. And We, the people of India have resolved to remain indifferent to those who have turned/turning India into a haven for corrupted, money making, apathetic blood sucking criminals.
No wonder we have lost Rs. 73 lakh crore, that's 73 followed by twelve zeroes, in corruption since 1992 but still the scams hardly concern us. Accept it!! The words patriotism and commitment to the nation are mere words of dictionary now, which pop out, twice a year, superficially on 26th of Jan and 15th of Aug, and then return back to their hideouts, to avoid being discomforted by words like chauvinism, communalism and neo-nationalism.
Note: electoral apparitions, are the "farji" voters about which I assume the reader knows more than enough
