Muslim Vote Theory
by imran patel on Oct 05, 2007 09:28 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

Some people seem to suggest that the POLITICIANS are in-efficient because they want MUSLIM votes.

I am not convinced by that theory. Here is why,

- Muslim account for 13 % of the Indian population.
- So 13 % voters are Muslims.
- Similarly Hindus account for 80% of the country
- Hence 80% of the voters are HINDU.

Now if we agree on these numbers and disect the "MUSLIM - VOTE" Theory that the CMs are inefficient in fighting extremism for Muslim vote then we can come up with two conclusions,

Either,

- Muslims are more involed in the elections (Higher Muslim turn out than Hindus)
- Hindus are not voting for what they believe.

The idea that politicians are ignoring the MAJORITY and are more intereted in MUSLIM votes just does not add up.

Please explain this theory.

If that is true,
Why keep shouting at the Muslims for what politicians are doing.

Mr Imran,
You forgot the bitter truth, some muslims can vote twice or thrice. Don't take it personally dude this is my experience and eye witnessed truth.
