Do u see any democracy having online voting. only opinion polls are conducted online and we are not talking about opinion polls here. People are not asked to come to Delhi but they are expected to queue up at the polling booth before they cast thier vote behind closed doors. where does voting happen in the open even an open ballot happens behind closed doors . all decision-making happens behind closed doors because you elected the representatives. next u might want to invited to cabinet meetings.
