India absence from voting on issue of Sri lanka.

Srilanka is an island located in Indian ocean holding place of strategic importance as of nearby presence of Diego Garcia,a US naval base. It is divided from India by Palk strait.

It has been religiously and historically close to India.64 % of population is Buddhist and 15 % are hindus.

Tamils were of 2 kinds,

Ceylonese and Indian[which were brought by Britishers as plantation farmers]

Jaffna in north and east part of Srilanka had heavy concentration of tamil population.

Problem became serious when Tamils started demanding separate ‘’EALAM’’.

India also participated in peace keeping mission in 1987,,which made sentiments hurt in Tamil NADU and costed us lives of 1200 soldiers.

LTTE ,,the main fighting body of freedom of tamils faced crunch since 2001 US attack,,,

Attacks on LTTE grew channelized since 2006..and finally LTTE was uprooted in 2009.

Blames were made on srilankan army that in last phases of the wars there were widespread human rights violations,,,which srilanka a denied.

This had been demand of USA,,and its allies to set up independent commission to enquire the cases of harsh conduct of national army,,

India had voted against Srilanka on previous occasions..this time India decided to do away from voting.

Only S Korea voted among prominent Asian nations. Pakistan and China also did not vote as of same internal conflicts.

Srilanka responded positively immediately after with release of Indian fisherman.

INDIAN GENERAL ELECTION 2014.

WE ARE IN THE MID OF INDIAN ELECTION EXERCISE. FOR THE FORMATION OF NEW GOVERNMENT IN 2014.

THIS ELECTION WAS HAVING ITS PLATFORM STARTING FROM DELHI LEGISLATIVE ELCTION,,WHERE AAM AADMI PARTY EMERGED AS SURPRISER ATTAINING 28 SEATS ,,A PARTY WHICH FOUGHT ON THE PRINCIPLES OF HONESTY,,CORRUPTION FREE GOVERNMENT.

IT WAS VERY WELCOME CHANGE LOOKING AT THE MANNER IN WHICH COMMON MASSES WERE VERY UPSET BY GOVERNMENT’S APPROACH OF NEGLIGENCE TO ISSUE WHICH WERE HURTING MASSES.

AAM AADMI PARTY GAVE A HOPE TO MASSES,,THAT IT CAN PROVIDE STABLE AND HONEST GOVERNMENT,,NUT THAT DID NOT TURN OUT TO BE THE CASE..MUCH TO THE DISAPPOINTMENT OF MASSES.

THEN WE FOUND NARENDRA MODI,,A MAN WHO IS LITTLE CONTROVERSIAL,,,BUT HAVING IMAGE OF STRONG ADMINISTRATOR,,,ONE WHO CAN TAKE STRONG ADMINISTRATIVE STEPS TO STRENGTHEN INDIA AS A NATION.

4 PHASES OF ELCTION TILL NOW HAVE SUGGESTED THAT VOTING HAS BEEN PRETTY HIGH IN ALL CONSTITUENCIES..

ISSUES HAVE RANGED FROM CORRUPTION,,INFLATION.ISLAMIC RADICALISATION,,HINDU NATIONALISM...

THIS INDIAN PRACTISE WHICH IS OF A LARGEST DEMOCRACY IN WORLD..ALSO TEACHES FEW POINTS TO WORLD,,,ABOUT HOW DEMOCRATIC ELECTIONS CAN BE CONDUCTED..

THIS YEAR WITNESSES ELECTION IN MANY NATIONS,,,WHEN I AM WRITING THIS,,,AFGHANISTAN IS ALSO GOING THROUGH THE PHENOMENON OF LEADER SELECTION,,

WE HOPE THAT WORLD SEES MORE OF SUCH PRACTICES,,,AND WE PRAY FOR STRENGTHENING OF DEMOCRATIC INSTITUTIONS WORLDWIDE
