Hyderabad, November 21: Asserting that “bad voters and bad leaders are elected by good people who do not vote”, Lok Satta Party President Jayaprakash Narayana today appealed to the electorate to vote in large numbers in the civic polls in Hyderabad.
“If we stay away from voting in the ensuing GHMC elections and do not elect right candidates, we will have to continue to live with unsafe drinking water and overflowing drains, manholes without covers and overstuffed garbage dumps, and potholed roads and unending traffic jams,” he said.
Addressing a media conference, Narayana said the revulsion for politics among the educated, middle classes, youth and women has attracted the cynical and vulgar marauders, land grabbers and looters unfit for public life to monopolise politics.
