Somebody says vote for BJP.
Somebody says vote for Congress.
Somebody says AAP will bring that change.
Everyday you just need to turn on the news
and instead of telling us why to vote for a party
they tell us why to not vote for the party
that's not paying them.
I have stopped trusting the Indian Media.
The lowest they had stooped was when Sridevi Mam passed away
and they got into a bathtub to demonstrate it.
But be rest assured, nobody is paying me.
Story of my life.
So no, I am not going to tell you which party is the best
but today by the end of this video, I promise
you will know exactly which person to vote for.
So in today's video we are going to see
the four major parties standing in elections
and the work that they have done in the past.
How is your vote going to influence the Indian National Elections 2019?
5 simple steps to chose the best candidate
who will serve you for the next 5 years.
But most importantly, towards the end I'll give you a Bonus Tip
that will finally put someone on the PM seat
who truly deserves it.
Just so that we are clear
I am not a BJP supporter or a Congress supporter.
I have voted twice so far and did not vote for either of them.
So I am going to be as less biased as possible.
Keeping that in mind, here are the 4 major parties.
Party #1: Congress
They have held their seat for 60 years
and irrespective of what some nay-sayers say
they have done some pretty good work.
Setting up of IITs, IIMs, DRDO, expansion of rail network,
RTI Act, India became a Nuclear Power
under the Congress government.
But what I am truly grateful for is that our first PM
Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru laid the foundation of our Indian Constitution
which helped in preventing us going the Pakistan way.
Leaders like PV Narasimha Rao and Dr. Manmohan Singh
bought back India from the verge of an economic collapse.
And who can forget MNREGA?
Ofcourse, every second person you meet doesn't like Congress
and they have valid reasons.
The horrors of emergency, pain of losing to China in 1962
and countless corruption scams.
So to sum it up, in its 60 year rule,
could Congress have done better?
They could've done a lot more.
But saying that nothing happened in 60 years
is just political exaggeration.
But the real question in the minds of most Indians
is if Rahul Gandhi can steer the country in the right direction?
Or there might be some other PM candidate from Congress.
Who knows?
Party #2: BJP stands for Bharatiya Janta Party
that won a whopping 282 seats in the 2014 Lok Sabha elections lead by our current PM
*Crowd chanting Modi Modi*
People had a lot of hope,
that atleast now the promised 'good days' will arrive.
And they did, in the form of
Public toilets in rural areas, cleaner railways, no major scams,
diplomatic relationships have improved, bank accounts have been opened up
with zero balance, Ujjwala Yojna to provide
free LPG to women below poverty line.
'Ease of doing business' ranking has gone up.
Implementation of GST which was done hastily
but was an important step towards a major tax reform
and a lot of other schemes that are still in progress.
But and there is a big 'but'
there is bad news as well.
Take Rafale, tycoons who have run away,
mess in the banks, face-off with RBI,
flameout in CBI,
unnecessary religious tensions brewed
with the intention of creating fear.
Demonetisation, which made the common man suffer the most,
black money still not retrieved
which was a major promise in the last elections.
But most importantly, the increasing rate of unemployment.
Party #3: Lead by Arvind Kejriwal
the Aam Aadmi Party started with good intention,
India against Corruption.
And since they won the 2015 Delhi elections,
they have been doing some pretty good work at Delhi.
Free water, cheap electricity, minimum wages,
compensation schemes, development of illegal colonies,
but their major contribution has been in the Health sector
especially through 'Mohalla Clinics' where they offer
free consultation, medicine and tests.
And in the education sector where they not only inaugurated
5000+ new classrooms in the government schools
but are also rectifying their syllabus
under the 'Chunauti 2018' scheme.
It is not my statement.
It was said by Manish Sisodia,
the deputy CM and Education Minister
and true that, AAP government has allocated
13,667 crore which is 26% of the total budget to education.
But again, there have been misses as well.
Fighting pollution, developing public transportation
and free Wi-Fi across the city remains on paper.
Still my friends from Delhi seem to be happy
with the Kejriwal Government.
If you are from Delhi and do not agree then comment below and let me know.
But these are not the main problems.
The main problems that AAP supporters only have with the AAP party are these...
1. They have lost leaders like Yogendra Yadav and Prashant Bhushan
and looks like the party is slightly drifting away from it's agenda.
2. The tie-up with Congress?!
*Gasps*
Whats the point of joining Congress when that's what they wanted to fight?
And just like other parties that started with the same intention
looks like AAP is also getting distracted.
But who knows?
May be they are like the Starks.
They didn't know politics at first
but now they are learning for survival.
Will they turn into corrupt Lannisters
or will they remain Starks?
Only time will tell.
Party #4: TRS
The reason why I listed TRS is because
I am from Hyderabad and you should know what's happening here.
Lead by KCR, the merits of the party include
launch of SHE Teams due to which the harassment of women in the city has decreased,
Rythu Bandhu, a welfare program to support farmers,
24hr power supply, which was a distant dream in Hyderabad a few years back,
assistance to brides under Kalyana Lakshmi and Shaadi Mubarak,
distribution of sheep,
KCR Kits to lactating mothers etc...
But the party's biggest achievement without a doubt
is the boost in the I.T sector.
Apple, Google, Amazon, Uber have their biggest development centers
outside US in Hyderabad.
Even DreamWorks has made investment here.
And where will you find IKEA in India?
At Hyderabad.
You know this was coming...But...
there have been misses too.
2BHK housing for the poor in the state is still in progress,
manufacturing sector is generating few jobs,
education has taken a beating,
there has been an inordinate delay in the execution of Hyderabad Metro Rail
and on top of that Multi-level flyovers and Underpasses are being built at the same time.
And because of all this construction around,
life in the city has become difficult.
Atleast for the next few years.
So these were my top 4 political parties
standing for the Indian National Elections 2019.
I know I missed out on a lot of parties like
TDP, CPI, BSP, SP ...
So before we move on to the next section,
this is what I want you to do.
Comment below and tell me which is your favourite party
and why are you voting for them?
Because who knows?
The people who read your comment might also vote for your candidate.
Because everybody visits this channel just to read the comments. :P
But in this game of parties, we are forgetting something very important.
Tomorrow, suppose your electricity gets cut
or you are not getting water
then Modi, Kejriwal, RaGa or KCR
are not going to come fix it.
So let's find out who is that candidate who will
work for you for the next 5 years.
The Indian Media wants you to believe
that the Indian National Elections 2019 is a fight between
Modi and Rahul Gandhi.
But that's the thing. It's not.
When you enter the polling booth, you are not going to vote for
Rahul Gandhi or Modi as Prime Minister.
You are going to vote for an MP
i.e Member of Parliament.
Without boring you to death, let me give you a quick Civics lesson.
The Lok Sabha elections (which are going to happen now)
is when you and I will select and MP.
i.e Member of Parliament for our respective constituency.
All over India, 543 MPs will be elected.
For a party to form the central government,
it needs 272 MPs
and if it doesn't have 272 MPs then it will form an
alliance with other parties and the leader of that alliance
becomes the Prime Minister.
Now before worrying about the PM,
we first need to worry about the MP.
Why? Because MP is a very important position.
They need to pass laws, they need to work for your constituency,
they need to help the government perform it's duties,
but most importantly, they will represent you in the parliament.
And guess how much they will be paid?
3 Lakh rupees per month.
And where is this money coming from?
Your pocket.
So in a way, you are hiring this person.
So don't you want your employee to not be corrupt,
not have criminal records or to start with
atleast be educated.
Suppose you want Modi to be the Prime Minister
and that's why you voted for BJP as a party.
But if that candidate doesn't do any work
then who will fix the potholes in your 'galli',
the water problems in summer
or the eve-teasing and harassment in your 'mohalla'.
Because PM doesn't have the time for it,
its the MP who should do it
and you are choosing that MP.
So no, you are not going to chose if
Rahul Gandhi or Narendra Modi or Shashi Tharoor
or Mamata Banerjee or whoever is going to be PM.
The MPs you elect together will decide who will be the next PM.
And the beauty of our country is that there are 543 MPs
and all of them can have different opinions.
So nobody can predict who is going to be the next PM
because bro, this is the Indian National Elections 2019,
the biggest democracy in the world!
So please, do not fall for what the media houses are telling you.
This is the only time in 5 years when the power is truly in your hands.
Be selfish and chose an MP who will do his/her work
and will serve you for the next 5 years.
And it doesn't matter which party they belong to
because all parties are the same.
But how do you chose the right MP?
I am so glad you asked.
Now if you want to chose the best candidate
from your constituency,
here are the 5 things that you need to do.
Step 1: Find out which constituency you belong to.
Your Voter ID will have something called as an 'EPIC Number'.
Enter it on this website.
Enter your state, enter the code and hit search.
In the results, you will get the name of your constituency.
Step 2: Time to find out what your current MP has done in the past 5 years.
First, go to this website.
I have left the link in the description.
Select your state and your constituency.
And on this page, you can see your current MPs performance.
Their attendance, questions asked in Lok Sabha,
Literacy rate, electrified homes etc..
If not performance, atleast an MP should attend the parliament regularly.
Step 3: Go to myneta.info and check the details of your state.
As of today it says, 'Coming Soon'
but as soon as it's updated, just like this
you can see the list of all candidates,
select your constituency
and see who all are standing in the elections,
the criminal cases against them,
educational qualifications, total assets etc...
This step is extremely crucial because
the past history of these candidates
will determine how the future of our country will be.
Fourth and the most important step, go and vote.
Elections are going to happen from 11th April 2019 to 19th May 2019 in 7 phases.
So you need to find out on which day
your constituency will have its elections.
Google it, check the ECI website or best
ask your Mohalley-waley retired uncle.
He will tell you when is the voting date,
where is the polling stations, where to park...everything!
And if your constituency is in your hometown
and if you are working somewhere else
please book a ticket to make sure
that you are in your hometown on the election day.
And the final step,
just before the elections, your constituency
candidates will conduct local meetings.
Some even came to our gated community last time.
They all say the same...'Please vote, we will solve of all your problems.'
But take this opportunity to meet them,
hear what they have to say
because that will help you determine whether
this candidate is right or not.
The first thing we need to do, is chose the right MP.
Because it's not about which party wins.
It's about sending the right candidates
to the ruling party and the opposition party
so that they together work for our country.
I know these steps look like a lot of work
but trust me, they will hardly take 15 mins.
And I think we need to invest that time
because voters get the leaders they deserve
and I think we deserve better.
So it's time we subscribe to the right candidate.
And if you think I am also a right candidate
then make sure you 'subscribe' to my channel
and hit that 'bell' icon because
I make Career, Finance and videos on such sensationalising topics too!
Now the Bonus Tip that will save the democracy of our country is this.
Please do not vote out of hate.
Suppose you like a candidate from AAP
but you think that Congress and BJP are the only 2 major parties
and you hate Congress.
So just to beat Congress, you vote for BJP
without even checking who the candidate is.
Then everybody complains...
Currently, every 3rd MP in Lok Sabha has criminal charges
and 21% of them have serious criminal charges
like crimes against women, murder and attempt to murder.
Isn't it ironical that criminals are deciding the law of this country?
So the Bonus Tip is this...
It's not about choosing the best PM.
It's about choosing the best Parliament.
So please don't vote because you hate a party.
Vote because you like a candidate.
May be you like Atishi from East Delhi, vote for AAP.
May be you like Renuka Chowdhury from Khammam. Vote for Congress.
May be you like Narendra Modi from Varanasi. Vote for BJP.
May be you like Kanhaiya Kumar from Begusarai. Vote for CPI.
Choose the best possible candidate.
And if you want to discuss, which party and which candidate is the best
then my comment section is open 24X7.
Par gali galoch mat karna!
I find it very interesting that GOT and Lok Sabha Elections 2019 are happening at the same time.
I might make a video on my Instagram
comparing political parties to GOT houses.
Aajao, mazey karte hai.
And don't forget to share this video with your friends and family.
Bombard your WhatsApp groups because
it's the Indian National Elections 2019.
Everybody with a Voter ID should go and vote.
I am going to see you again very soon, until then
Keep fighting, The Urban Fight to be Fit!
Jai Hind.
