Gadkari welcome.
Union Road Transport and Highways Minister and senior BJP leader Nitin Gadkari has said he will not campaign for himself in next year's Lok Sabha elections, asserting that "those who must vote will vote and those who don't, won't." This is a welcome step.
He added that for this Lok Sabha election, he has decided that no banners or posters would be put up, nor tea offered to people. He would also not take a bribe or allow anyone.
Gadkari's decision can be approved by the Election Commission of India and necessary propaganda can be carried out by the Commission after getting its cost from the candidates. In doing so, voters must avoid wasting time and money.
Without banners, posters and loudspeaker announcements, pollution from various sources can be avoided. Press releases from the election commission would make voters aware of their candidates. Let candidates or their agents make home visits and promote candidates.
