Sir — This refers to the article, “UPA prepares poison pill for 2014 election” (August 31) by Ashok Malik. Analysing this Government, its policies, its governance and what it is doing, is an exercise in futility. One wonders why the Prime Minister is receiving so much of flak and facing criticism, when we all know that he is merely a rubber stamp, who is following the diktats of the supreme leader of his party.
The Bharatiya Janata Party should launch a new voter registration drive, else the party will be a loser. I live in Mumbai and am an immigrant. I don’t have a voter card, nor am I enrolled in the electoral list. Given the trouble I had to go through while trying to get my passport renewed, I don’t think I have the patience to find out where the election/voter office in my neighbourhood is. And that’s the story of a significant chunk of the working population.
