Shiv +1 Even my dad who is a Hindu, could not vote in Bangalore Central, with is a new constituency after the recent delimitation process and where Sangliana, a Christian has won last Loksabha seat on a BJP ticket and is now on a Congress ticket. My dad's name was not in the lists even though my mother's and my name were included in the list. We are assuming that since we changed address from Mysore to Bangalore, the officials might have erred in including Dad's name in the lists. But, I'd like to find out the real reason somehow.
In nutshell, I strongly detest this victimhood and speaking from religious view points from anyone be it - Hindu, Muslim and Christian. It is fairly understandable to see this emanating from poor sections of society. But I find it loathable if it is from highly educated sections of the society. It is quite sad that the Election Commission, which needs to be praised for working hard to ensure elections go off smoothly in a great democratic country like India, still has lots of questions to be answered on it's plate. -- Bharat On Sat, Apr 25, 2009 at 8:05 PM, ss <cybers...@gmail.com> wrote: > Biju have you checked how many Hindus had their names deleted? > > May I put it to you that when a Christian or Muslim finds his name absent it > is "minority discrimination".
