And who is going to catch the criminal and make him pay up?

Another fine in the endless list of fines that nobody ccares about....

When PM can cancel FIR against factory owner of 250 killed people, anything can happen!!!

 

[Fracker]

Is it for single vote or multiple votes? Say I cast 40k votes and pay RS 100,000, is it fine? As ragging is done by whole team for thousands of vote rather single .... So this clause needs to be added, The team take over the polling both can get life impression including those who sent them to rig..

The very same political parties can and do identify the culprits from opposit parties besides this move is going to scare common man and if awareness programs are spreaded then common voters will refrain from casting fake votes on behalf of parties.

Above all there is also a suggestion to make casting one's vote compulsory otherwise he/she will be punished.

lets see how it will unfold towards implementation

That's not practical. There can be millions of reasons that he couldn't come to polling station... & this will bring lot more investigation into it.

Average case in the court takes like 3 years. And around 85% of the case remain unsolved or handled outside the court. So this will increase misery those legit cases..

just Rs100,000 fine
this is mind blowing ..

 

[somebozo]

Pay 1000 to the election supervisor and cast your "evidence proof" fake vote.
Do they have enough jails and muscle to detain such large number of people?

 

[batmannow]
