It’s your suffrage; vote ethically

Unlike numerous other nations that chalked up independence from colonial rule, our nation India prides on being a democratic republic country regardless of its size and diversity. As a nation which upholds representative democracy, Indian constitution under article 326 gages the citizens who are not less than 18 years of age to be eligible as a voter in legislative assembly election. Owing to this fact, citizens of India on the basis of adult suffrage elect representatives quinquennially. And as our state Manipur brace up for yet another legislative assembly election, time has come for us to buckle up our aura of political caliber as we cherry-pick the best and esteemable candidate who can frame laws and policies on our behalf.
