Socio Political message from Sarkar


Sarkar, the controversial film talks about the relevance of voting rights for every citizen in our country.  Our Constitutional makers believed in democratism and provide Universal Adult Franchise to enable people to participate in the process of election without any discrimination on the basis of sex,  caste,  creed.  The minimum age to achieve voting rights is 18 according to the 61st constitutional amendment.   The film stressed the importance of the Voting power of citizens and creating awareness about Section 49P under the Election Rules of conduct  1961.  Section 49P states that If a person's vote subjected to an illegal vote, he/she can get his/her vote back under this provision.

Importance of Single vote:

In the 1796 congressional debate,  English becomes the official language of the United States defeating the German language by one vote.
In 1875, One vote changed France from monarchy to Republic
In 1923, Adolf Hitler achieved leadership  of the Nazi party by one vote

The right to vote is a Constitutional right

As a citizen of India, One must believe in the voting system and cast their votes to elect their own representative or him/She can choose Section 49 O(NOTA) under Election Rules.
Taking money for a vote or avoiding the use of voting rights on election dates made the political system maligned and losing the credibility of the election process.
Every citizen must utilize the voting opportunities to elect the best representatives in their respective constituencies.
