Once again Supreme court has given a landmark verdict
directing election commission of india to introduce option to cast negative
voting by introducing none of above button at the end of Electronic Voting
Machine . Supreme court has said that in democracy there is right to freedom of
speech and expression even in case of voting . The bench noted that the concept
of negative voting is prevalent in 13 countries and even in India,
parliamentarians are given an option to press the button for abstaining while
voting takes place in the House. This judgement will definitely force the
political parties to project better candidates but Supreme court has not
clarified that if every candidate will be rejected then what would be further
move?
I
am sure now elections would be more inclusive due to people`s participation
because who generally complain that there is no good contestant thats why i
didnot vote will not have such claim now.
