It’s the ultimate weapon in people’s hands- the right not to vote! Only they have it, only in their hands!!

After examining all aspects, the Constitution Drafting Committee of India conferred a special status to the state of Kashmir. Seventy years later, when a person named Narendra Modi came to power as the Prime Minister of the Hindu activist Bharatiya Janata Party, BJP, he took away that special status through an amendment of the Constitution and opened the state as a real estate market for the big corporations, made it possible for anyone to go and purchase land there, and took broker fees from the beneficiaries for the BJP. The Election Commission of India reiterates people should go to polling booths and vote periodically for some people to be empowered to carry out such amputations and modifications in the Constitution. Does the Election Commission guarantee that such coups will not take place on the Constitution? They who are not capable of doing that, why say people should go and vote for delegating their powers to someone to carry out those coups in the constitution?
If they win without people's vote, through some pre-programmed and remotely controlled manipulations of the electronic voting machines of theirs and subvert the constitution, let them do it! Or else, the people themselves will decide not to vote. That is what is going on in the country and people are reaching this conclusion. If so, who else except they themselves who are the sovereigns of the country has the right to question them about it? Even in the latest verdict on 2024 March 22 also, the Madras High Court observed that people cannot be coerced to go for voting and that no law exists to make them do it.
Even the President of the country does not have any independent powers but only those powers delegated to the MPs by the people through their votes which in turn were delegated to the President by the MPs. Even the judiciary appointed by the President has even less powers than that. Do you think the legislature and the executive, which are not even as powerful as the other two entities and are in fact submissive to people’s powers, will enact laws to hang people who do not vote, and the people will finally come to the conclusion that if they do not vote they will be hanged and finally go and vote? The Brahma Astra- the Fire Dart- the Ultimate Weapon- is placed in the hands of the people- the right not to vote! It’s only in their hands!!

When confronted with questions by media in Madurai, the then Chief Election Commissioner Naveen B. Chawla asked in return if the two hundred million people of India decided not to vote, could separate cases be taken against them all in the country’s courts! A question no one asked but still remains. The world is not yet free from the fear of Corona and it doesn't look it will be in the near future, because the serious, dangerous, long-lasting, and fatal side effects of the drugs claimed to have been discovered to cure it are only just beginning to come out. It was as part of control measures that there was a restriction on one person touching a part or place which another person’s finger touched before sanitizing and washing it. It has been implemented in from seats in buses, trains and airplanes to even keypads in ATM counters. What about electronic voting machines?
In any case, the credibility of the Chief Election Commissioner, the Election Commission and the electronic voting machines has plummeted as far as the people are concerned. Surveys indicate that it has dropped from seventy percent in 2019 to less than forty percent in 2024. For who else but the BJP and its Hindu Rashtra that the Chief Election Commission holds on to these machines which the people do not want?
