Life being a Bangelorean is not easy, who says voting is, but it is a right which drives change. If you do it right. Be a responsible citizen, know your candidates. Their background, assets and legal limitations/ legal history before you go to vote.

It's not enough to just be a silent citizen anymore we all agree that there should be change in the political and economical environment of our country.

Only way to make it happen is through proper candidate selection. I would go for somebody who knows what we need ? This is our opportunity to convey what we feel and how we felt about governance so far.

Being educated is a sharp sword let us use it judiciously with proper knowledge.
