New rule:100% voter turnout in Indian Election

Our Indian Voting system has undergone so many changes from paper ballot to electronic voting machine(EVM) but the percentage of voters has not significant change.0ften most of the people tend to boycott polls . the elected canditates are chosen by some percentage of total population.

The lowest voter turnout in a polling station is three! It happened in Bomdila district in Arunachal Pradesh!"To avoid a shame like this,there is a way to get 100%voter percentage in Indian Election.

I suggest to introduce an Act in which "Make Voting compulsory" for all the citizens.People who have not voted cannot use their ration cards,driving licence for that matter any documents which were issued by the Government of India for the 5years tenure.

This act wont be imposed on physically and mentally challenged people,Patients suffering from Life threating disease and old age people of more than 65 yrs.

There may be an famous comment that "Politicians are not good,so we dont want to vote".For this purpose n all EVM's there would be an option of "NOT INTERESTED".

So this new act,will make our people an good citizen and would bring new dynamics to Indian Politics.I would like to hear your comments on this issue.
