Indian Election roller-coaster Ride | Dilemma to choose between Devil and the deep Sea.

Finally, the election in India got over, and now I can delete all the political suggestions crowding my mobile. For the first time, I was so interested to know the chaotic political journey from campaigning to results. And believe me, it was no less than any of the entertaining shows, starting from the crazy newsroom discussions to dramatic interviews, comedy speeches to people suffering the idiotic political dilemmas. Honestly, this time, it was difficult for every individual not to select a leader but to go through every pain of choosing a person who would facilitate them with healthy living. This election, we saw the edges of so-called secularism of the country, religion, division, patriotism, and many more. Why?   

Well, I don't know the answers, in a democratic country like India, why can't people just have their own opinion, have their views, and choice to choose a government whom they think have worked, done the job for civilians. Strange, the politicians have to prove it on the cost of peoples emotions, peoples helplessness. Even if you want or not, you will be dragged to the mess to forcefully put your opinion, and unfortunately, there is no solution for this. Are people not mature enough to understand who is correct for the country, then why these religious divisions, why blood, why to politicize on god? Repeatedly pulling out the pages of the past, what happened in the past no one can change, but what should be done for the future is essential. Many damages are already done to the country in the past, and are we serious about changing it in the present and future or just discussing, fight over, and blame others?

 Every individual in the country has thousands of questions to be answered, and take my words; there is no one to answer your questions, my questions. This time the situation for every voter was like choosing between the devil and the deep sea. And on the top, youtube content maker, I don't know if they have the authority to talk about political polls, opinions, and suggestions. But, for sure I was enjoying to watch the over-enthusiastic people making fun of the opposition, showing funny videos edited over Bollywood dialogues and songs (what's wrong with these peoples). When people are not serious about how they want their country to be, then how will the political parties be serious about running a country of a culturally diverse population. But after all, a presidential-style election was over, with an extremely disastrous way. (I mean happy ending) take it anyways.  

Can this be changed?

I really don't know an exact answer to this question, maybe more sensible people, highly educated, and people with knowledge of the country's basic needs and problems can run this country in a more better way. And above all, the political parties should let people do their job to select their own government, the parties should stop playing with the emotions of poor people, they are helpless, they don't have any choice but to "Hope." Stop playing with their hopes, expectations. 

Let's come together to make a beautiful, and safe country, Let's not break our mother into pieces in the name of religion, rich, poor, patriot, and traitors.
