We need to vote responsibly in coming panchayat elections

Panchayat elections are approaching so  we all should know that voting is the first duty of democracy. Voting is not only our right -- it is our power. Those days are gone when uneducated politicians were fooling the people by giving them money to vote for them.

Our government always shouts saying 'Each One Teach One' so that we can at least know what is exactly going around us.  The candidate may be your neighbour, friend or relative vote for them if they are capable of taking your issue in gram sabha and for that they should be educated. We elected them and gave them responsibility to get our ward and village work done. Request the government to see that the old and sick people who can't come to vote on polling station get a chance to vote from their homes. Let us be responsible and vote as it is our right and our duty to vote, and we must fulfill them both.
