First experience of Elections 2013 in Pakistan

–>

    Before Elections 2013 in Pakistan I was very excited mainly because I was going to cast my vote first time and for change. I was thinking that my vote will be a decider of destiny of too many Politicians but i was wrong. Now i feel that it changed me a lot instead off change in Pakistan.

  I specially went to my home to cast my vote from Lahore. I just wanted to get ride the current system in Pakistan. That is why i decided to vote for Pakistan Tehreek Insaf (PTI). They came up with some good policies. A person only knows about something when he actually face it. I went through the system of Pakistan and It forced me to think. It forced me to do something for change, something that could help Pakistan to washed out all these issues.

 When I went to my village and asked people for whom they are casting their vote. Their answered totally disheartened me. They do not give their vote for leader but they do what the Chaudries and members of villages says. Some of them even do not know about their leaders. Very less numbers of people from villages thinks in broader term. They do what have been asked by chaudries of villages. Not every person in village has same type of thinking but many have.

 Most of  Women from villages are illiterate and they do not have ability to decide who is right person. They do what their husbands says. People could not differentiate between NA and PP seat, I experienced it. Everybody can not read and they just look at the symbols and cast their vote  and the funny thing that i experienced that many people could not find their candidate symbol and they just casted their vote blindly.

 Their was not good privacy to cast vote. Some people just casting their votes in front of everybody and some of them asking people in polling station to cast their vote for their party, very shame. No respect for Teacher what they were asking to people.

 There are many more points but i do not want to mention all. After experiencing first time Election, I realized that it will not make any difference either you cast your vote or not. I know i am not saying a good thing but it is just a feeling that a person can have after casting their vote. And when it comes to counting, really sad to say why it takes so much time and why election commission ignores many rigging proofs.

 Sometime i think they already write a script i.e. who will rule the country this year and do some formalities like election. I do not think their can be a free and fare elections until the interruption of other countries. If anybody want to win election then come out with those people who can lie more and more, purchase chaudries etc, according to current system.

 But hope for the best. One day In Shaa Allah thing will be getting better.
