Our Country is heading towards the next Parliamentary elections in the coming months. Political Parties are gearing up and strategizing their campaigns. Every country will be watching the functioning of the largest democracy in few months. Is every Indian Citizen ready for the election ? Yes, each one of us is the key force who is going to decide the future leaders of our nation. Before we Vote, lot of observations, evaluation and study is required.
First Challenges, How many of us are really exercising the power of voting. It is the Birthright of every citizen in a democracy. In spite of all the awareness programs, even now we do not achieve 80% voting participation in most of the constituencies. Lack of our participation & involvement is the one of the major reasons. Democracy is alive only when weparticipate and fight, not when we watch. Let us initiate without giving up. As a first step, let us all register our vote and use our right in the coming Election.

"Lets Vote Walk campaign" is one such campaign recently organized by TiE Hyderabad Chapter. JA Chowdary, President, said "We have a responsibility to make our society better for future generation; one of the most important commitments among them is to vote, which should not be disregarded." Create campaigns in your organization and encourage each one of your colleague to participate in the coming election.
Transformations come through self responsibility and consistent efforts as we received our independence.
