Shouldn't we raise our voice for RIGHT to RECALL??
Unfortunately OPS was forced to resign in spite of his active participation in solving issues like getting Krishna Water, Jallikattu bills etc.,.
Then, in the attempts of making Sasikala / EPS as the new CM, very very dirty politics happened for about 11 - 12 days,
wherein most of the elected representatives (MLAs) were kept in tight custody in Koovathur resort purely for a particular group's personal gains.
So many unethical and undemocratic dramas went on till 18-Feb-2017 until EPS was declared as winner in the Floor test.
In all those dramas, all our elected representatives (MLAs) including TN Speaker, Police force etc., played a key role and finally achieved what they wanted.
None of the attempts to bring out the MLAs from Koovathur resort proved successful, even after cases were filed in High Court, police raids etc.,
The reason being that the MLAs and the group who kept them under custody, utilized all the loop holes in our system to their advantage.
Every one of us heard and knew that a full-blown police protection was also given for the Koovathur Resort, as a matter of appreciation for the undemocratic dramas hosted there.
TN people couldn't do anything on this issue, other than watching quietly.
The common people tried in so many ways (using phone calls, via social networking etc,) to pass on their constituency people's thoughts on who should be elected as their next CM.
But, most of the MLAs didn't even wanted to listen to people's voices, some said that they are extremely happy in Koovathur resorts,
some said that people doesn't have any right to say about CM selection, and so on.
IT IS PROVED THAT A COMMON MAN 'ONLY HAS THE RIGHT TO VOTE' AND FROM THE MINUTE AFTER CASTING HIS VOTE, 'HE DOESN'T HAVE ANY RIGHTS TO QUESTION THE ELECTED REPRESENTATIVES".
A COMMON MAN ONLY HAS RIGHTS FOR 5 MINS AND HIS ELECTED REPRESENTATIVE HAS RIGHTS FOR 5 YEARS.
We say 'We live in a DEMOCRATIC country' but do we feel that really?
Actually, 'Democracy is a government "of the people, by the people, and for the people." -
but seeing the worst situation in Tamil Nadu now, we get a feeling that - is it "for the people"?
In order to save our state at least in future, lets raise our voice and demand for the following changes in our constitutional laws:
1. Getting people's opinion (by means of voting) on whom should be selected as their CM, when a situation arises for electing a new CM after general election.
2. "Right to Recall" for people so that people can opt for recalling their elected representatives, in case they are deviating from public's interests - this will definitely force the elected
representatives to be responsible. more
