A little introspection
by Pankaj Gadkari on Jul 23, 2007 02:33 PM

I have read the 460 messages posted here.Forget Pratibha because common man has no role to play in Presidential election.We all know Pratibha's election is in fact a 'political appointment'.
Let's not forget these are the very leaders and parties we have voted to power.No Indian can deny the responsibility.
Do we ever verify the credentials of the candidate before casting our vote?Certainly not,for otherewise we would not have ended up electing more than 50% MP with serious criminal cases pending against them.
If this is the case with us literate,computer savy vocal brats then it defies logic to blame the supposedly backward,illeterate rural voters for electing non deserving MPs.
