The great freedom fighters, who sacrifice there everything for made this independent nation like ahatma Gandhi, Dr. Bheem Rao Ambedkar, Sardar Bhagat Singh, Rani Lakshmi Bai, Netaji Shubhash Chandra Bose, Ram Manohar Lohiya, Sardar Vallabh Bhai Patel, and Maulana Abul Kalam Azad etc. had a dream to make INDIA a “crime & corruption free nation”. Their dream was materialized by certain politicians and their political parties in the early post-independent INDIA i.e. after 1947. But as after the year 1980’s many regional political parties mushroomed in the country which diluted the Indian politics with their personal interests. These parties divided the country into in-numerous small fragments on the basis of caste, creed, colour, region, religion etc. and sowed the seeds of corruption and disharmony within the country or nation. The criminal records of the candidates were ignored by these parties and tickets were given to wealthy and powerful people, neglecting the truly deserving and worthy candidates. This was just the beginning of a nation-wide disaster, these unworthy yet wealthy candidates got their way to the LOK SABHA and the VIDHAN SABHA by using unfair means like booth capturing, emotionally blackmailing and befooling voters as well as buying votes. Criminalisation of politics & political parties kept on piling up day-by-day. Majority of these politicians are from the states of UTTAR PRDESH, BIHAR, JHARKHAND, CHATTISGARH & MADHYA PRADESH
Apart from Political parties, the Industrialists, the social organizations, and the beurocracy are equally responsible for the CRIMINALIZATION of the INDIAN POLITICS. If the Industrialists of the country, support the honest social organizations to abolish crime and corruption from the nation, then these organizations can actually play a significant role to help, to make the common man aware of their rights and duties etc. and hence, can curb these problems very well at the grass root level. Even the election commission can’t run away from its duties, common man should be made aware of the history of the candidates with a criminal background by the help of these social associations/organisations by displaying on HAND BILLS, POSTERS, BANNERS, PRINT AND ELECTRONIC MEDIA, in the respective constituency regions.
Its apparent that the politicians and the social workers sit in their air conditioned auditorium or air-conditioned cabins and solve the problems of common man there. But the truth is just the opposite of this and the irony is that the industrialists and people from the higher society also support only these materialistic and selfish organizations. The actual need of awareness is in the rural or urban backward areas.
As our experiences, 80% of the country's population lives in the rural or urban backward areas whose votes count more than 60% of the total votes. This rural or urban backward public/people of India can be made aware of their fundamental rights and duties within time by social organizations. So that, these people cast their votes to a learned, honest and truly deserving candidate; transcending the borders of caste, creed, region and religion. And hence a truly worthy candidate could be elected as a member of various political bodies like loksabha & vidhan sabha’s etc.
A common voter should be made aware to ask the candidate to duly sign the “lok ghoshna patra” (undertaking by parliament candidates regarding local & regional development issues) and thus, remind the candidate of his promises with the help of media, letters and dialogue.
Project Vijay ran the Voter Awareness Campaign in a revolutionary way in the backward & outward villages of Distt. Auraiya which is the most criminalized area of Uttar Pradesh. As we all know that India is democratic country where every common people get an opportunity to elect a democratic government. Though the elections, most important part of democracy, people from all sections of society who are supposed to directly participate in the elections. The young and wit full volunteers of PROJECT VIJAY, fulfilled their duties towards the society & our pride nation by running voter awareness campaign (Matdata Jagruta Abhiyan) in this loksabha election 2009 in the grass root level of Uttar Pradesh.
CHOOSE “NOT TO CHOOSE”
VOTE FOR “NOT TO VOTE”
To change the scenario of Indian Politics.......
To make India corruption free.......
To make Indian politics free from the corrupts...
Rule 49O is statutory rules & orders in The conduct of Election Rules, 1961 of ELECTION COMMISSION of INDIA, gives the right to a Elector deciding "not to vote" . This rule states that if none of the candidates seem appealing or worthy enough to the elector or, if the elector does not want to vote for any of the listed candidates, elector can choose "not to vote" procedure. For this, elector has to inform this to the election officer of particular election booth. Thereafter “Form 17A" would be provided to the voter by the Election Officer in the voter register. In this form the voter has to specify elector identity by signature or thumb impression. After this the election officer will put the ink mark on the "Index finger" of the concerned elector (like any other elector) and intimate the same to the Presiding Officer.
Thus, in present election procedure itself there is a facility to filter out un-eligible candidates from reaching the parliament. During counting of votes the "not to vote" are separately counted. Although, there is no set procedure, or set of rules that could define "what to do if the number of such kind of votes (not to vote) are more than the number of votes given to the winning candidate?". So, It is our sole responsibility to promote vote for “not to vote” campaign, to prevent the entry of unworthy, corrupt and irresponsible candidates into the parliament. Promoting this concept on grass root level would help us to Decriminalise the Indian politics.
PROJECT VIJAY is all set to promoted VOTE FOR “NOT TO VOTE”, in the most criminalized areas of UTTAR PRADESH.
Environment Wing
The role of environment cannot be overemphasized with respect to both India and the world at large. Though the environment may not seem to have a direct bearing on the current problems of our society in an instantaneous manner, it does have a profound long-term and ever-lasting effect on everyone. Especially in the context of India, where a large portion of the population lives in unhygienic slums and dirty shacks, incidence of respiratory diseases and pollution related health hazards is rising; thus, it is of prime importance to keep a check on the environment. At the same time, we cannot depend on expensive environmental sustainability measures and complicated procedures like the ones used by developed countries (who cause the most environmental degradation in the first place!).
The measures, here in India MUST satisfy commercial profit motives and social acceptability norms before being implemented. We cannot afford to be idealistic and force students to mug up environmental education books and allocate funds randomly hoping that the things will get sorted out by themselves. It is now time for us to get together and implement a practical action plan for sustainable development. And it was arguments like these that finally lead to the formation of a separate Environmental Wing of Project Vijay to address the aforementioned issues that will very well bear a huge impact on India’s economic growth.
As a brand new wing, we have a lot to do in the near future and to achieve our goals we have amassed considerable support and participation, especially from energetic school students, including some particularly experienced ones. The aim is clear—to usher in a revolution by enforcing commercial plans and silently reaching out to every corner by immobilizing the immense power of the youth instead of just getting down on the streets and shouting slogans to a deaf adult community.
The methodology of the Environmental Wing involves the use of mass media like internet and films. The internet in particular, with its wide social networking sites, connecting the informed youth, can serve as an excellent base of operations, including spread of innovative ideas, debating on important issues, brainstorming for solutions to immediate problems and signing online petitions for changes. Besides that, there will be periodical student conferences to spread the word to people not connected to the internet and inspire leadership and person to person connectivity. Depending on the response, there might even be monthly journals or e-newsletters in the future. Other important objectives of the Environmental Wing include formation and training of environmental clubs at school and promotion of contests that will motivate others to take actions towards environmental sustainability. One such innovative contest is already in the process of being organized under the aegis of Exnora, Lucknow, which has also been extremely keen on helping us with their whole lot of experience in any ways they can. Hopefully, we will be able to convert most of our plans into reality and make a real difference to our environment- no matter how localized to begin with. Details about the contest and some of the practical commercial ideas will be posted soon. So keep checking this space!
