Election - State festival

Election - a festival? Yes! Like any other religious fest or cricket tournament in our country election too carries lot of pomp and richness . Crores of rupees are spent on Ganesh Pandals and match tickets while government spends money in setting up free and fair elections. Ganesh Chathurthi or deepavali or kumbhmela, be it IPL or Chennai Open, we participate and enjoy the festival. Similarly participate in democracy through elections and experience the feel of your right.  Election is not a duty so not enforced on us like how one can stay out of a festival celebrated by their own family. How to forget a day off from work. Vote early and relax for the rest of the day. After all democracy is a government "of the people, by the people, and for the people"
