Re: [India_Vision_2020] Results on second phase polls...!

The analysis by Sathish (that the poll per centage this time has reduced) is really causing conern.  Does it mean that the youth are getting more disillusioned with the electoral process and the democratic system.  I only wish I were wrong.  In fact I pray I should be wrong.  But what else that this indicate?  Psephologists to throw more light please.  We say that more and more youth are concerned about nation building, literacy per centage has increased, awareness has risen, political interest is now enhanced and there is a wide-spread youth awakening.  But what does this analysis indicate?   V Rajendran Secy Cyber Society of India, Chennai --- On Fri, 4/24/09, Sathish <sathishsp@gmail.com> wrote: From: Sathish <sathishsp@gmail.com> Subject: [India_Vision_2020] Results on second phase polls...! To: India_Vision_2020@yahoogroups.com Date: Friday, April 24, 2009, 7:13 PM Dear all,  I was just looking at the poll percentage of the 2009 elections. Since two phases of elections are over..I was really worried on seeing the poll percentage. The number of peoples turnout for voting was considerably less when compared to 2004 elections. Recently in the second phase of elections only 55% were recorded. Phase 2 Elections poll turnuot State                         2004            2009 Andhra                      72                68 Assam                      69                62 Bihar                         57                44 Goa                          59                55 J&K                          45                46 Jarkhand                   57                47 Karnataka                 62                55 MP                          49                 45 Maharastra               55                 56 Manipur                    56                 65 Orissa                      68                 55 Tripura                      67                 80 UP                           46                 44 Total                         59                 55 Only Tripura has did a good job. I don't think those peoples are influenced by Internet and online campaigns. What happened to the online vote campaign, online awareness on the importance of voting. Seemed to be a election with more number of young votes...but less number of votes registered when compared to 2004 elections. Does this proves that the approach was totally failed ? what is the result of the "n" number of NGO's working on this for past years ? Wish to have some good numbers in the third and final phase of elections. And that too for sure In tamil nadu we need a change....lets see...! One thing I am sure that.....we have to change the approach for making the peoples vote. Let's think differently. Jai Hind...! With love...Sathish. Blossom Foundation.
