Should Indian voters be able to exercise the "None of the Above" (NOTA) option for candidates?

Waste of time and money. Won't do any good. 7 years ago from a Bharatiya Janata Party in Vijayawada

NOTA should be eliminated. Rather, every citizen is connected to the Government and they can track easily who has not voted. Cut their benefits. India will change. 7 years ago from a Indian National Congress in Erode

The candidate must get min. 30% of the votes cast to be a representative of the people if NOTA is voted for in any constituency. Candidate with less than 30 % of the cast votes shall not be declared winners in case of NOTA exercised by the voters. 7 years ago from a Aam Aadmi Party in Nagpur

NOTA is worthless, its not a right format. 7 years ago from a Bharatiya Janata Party in New Delhi

Yes, and if a majority votes NOTA then current candidates would be disqualified Deposits of all disqualified candidates should be forfeited. There should be re-poll with out the disqualified candidates. 7 years ago from a Bharatiya Janata Party in Bangalore

Voting is not just a right but a duty. Even if one does not approve of all the options, one should not escape participation. 7 years ago from a Aam Aadmi Party in Bangalore

Re-elections should be held where votes polled is less than 50 % and NOTA is more than 5 % of the eligible voters. 7 years ago from a Bharatiya Janata Party in Chennai

Ensure a system of filtration (crime/ corruption/ etc) of the profile of a right candidate. First of all, why shall we have such candidates on the race. 7 years ago from a Bharatiya Janata Party in New Delhi

Yes! Absolutely. Additionally, if NOTA gets the majority all the candidates should be barred from contesting any election for life. 7 years ago from a Bharatiya Janata Party in Mumbai

Stricter norms should be made to ensure that corrupt/criminals/tax defaulters or those who do not uphold secularism and the constitution of India are not allowed to stand for elections. This will then not require NOTA. 7 years ago from a Aam Aadmi Party in New Delhi

NOTA should be implemented with a rider that if NOTA exceeds 33% of the total voting nos, Re-election should be again conducted till NOTA is less than 20%. 7 years ago from a Bharatiya Janata Party in Chennai
