49-O  - In Constitution of India:

Did you know that there is a system in our constitution, as per the 1969
act, in section " 49-O" that a person can go to the polling booth,
confirm his identity, get his finger marked and convey the presiding
election officer that he doesn't want to vote anyone!

Yes such a feature is available, but obviously these leaders have never
disclosed it. This is called "49-O". Why should you go and say " I VOTE
NOBODY"... because, in a ward, if a candidate wins, say by 123 votes,
and that particular ward has received "49-O" votes more than 123, then
that polling will be cancelled and will
have to be re-polled. Not only that, but the candidature of the
contestants will be removed and they cannot contest the re-polling,
since people had already expressed their decision on them. This would
bring fear into parties and hence look for genuine candidates for their
parties for election. This would change the way; of our whole
political system... it is seemingly surprising why the election
commission has not revealed such a feature to the public....

Please spread this news to as many as you know...
Seems to be a wonderful weapon against corrupt parties in India ... show your power, expressing
your desire not to vote for anybody, is even more powerful than
voting... so don't miss your chance. So either vote, or vote not to vote
(vote 49-O) and pass this info on...

Use your voting right for a better INDIA
