Think before you vote

CERTAIN POINTS are relevant while we, Indians, cast our votes.
My Indian brothers and sisters, I suggest you consider the break-up of our population by wealth and educational accomplishments, before you cast your vote, as a senior citizen of India, for the benefit of our youngsters:


Rich and educated people: They account for 5 per cent of the population; they are industrialists and businesspersons; they are an affluent class
Rich but poorly educated: They account for 10 per cent of the population; they are traders, businesspersons and politicians; they are an affluent class.
Poor but educated: They account for 25 per cent of the population; they represent the middle class; they are job-holders, professionals, politicians, army personnel and teachers and so on.
Poor and uneducated: They account for 60 per cent of the population; they are semi-skilled and unskilled workers or labourers; they work in factories and farms or they are self-employed in villages, towns and cities
Upon review of the foregoing break-up, I conclude and suggest as follows:

Categories 1 and 2 represent a profit-oriented people; they are not concerned with religion, class, family and friends.

They are concerned with money alone
Category 3 represents people who respect religion, family values and the welfare of fellow Indians
Category 4 represents people who work hard for their survival and the survival of their children. They enjoy no security in life and all the time they are at the mercy of other people, in particular people belonging to category 2.
Secularism or its opposite is of no consequence to categories 1, 3 and 4.
So, while voting, we should ensure that the candidate has:
No criminal background
Good educational background
Exposure to the job he is required to handle
A good reputation
