Should we contest in Loksabha elections 2014? Closed Wed 22 Jan 2014 8:09AM
We can contest elections.
It would be a great opportunity to spread our ideas. We can offer another option for people fed up with traditional politics. AAP win in Delhi showed us people wants an alternative.

I dont agree with the opinion Contesting in elections. We are not in a state to contest according to me. First We must have enough campaigns and spread the pirate idea among the people. And election is not a Tool for it.

ഞാന് പിന്തുണയ്ക്കുന്നു. ഇത് ഒരു ആംആദ്മി പ്രസ്ഥാനമല്ല. ആളെണ്ണം നോക്കിയിട്ടല്ല നമ്മള് ഒരു പണിക്കും ഇറങ്ങിയത്. ഇതുവഴി നമ്മുടെ ആശയങ്ങള് കൂടുതല് പേരിലെത്തിക്കാനും ഒരു പക്ഷേ നല്ലൊരു മാറ്റമുണ്ടാക്കാനും നമുക്ക് കഴിയും.

@praveenarimbrathod Sorry if i have made some one feel bad. but i still stand in my opinion. But if any one stands for election, i can help the with all i can.

@arkarjun it is fine when people don't want to do something, but it hurts when they are so enthusiastic to stop someone. If people feel there is more important things to do than what is proposed, they should take initiative and do that rather than stopping someone interested in doing something. Everyone have their own priorities, respect that.
Many people die of hunger, can there be anything more important than feeding them? Should we stop doing everything else and focus on feeding the hungry?

@praveenarimbrathod etta, My vote is not a veto vote, i just said my opinion. If others feel its good you/others can(or should) contest in elections, go ahead.
We have many things to do before contesting election. Its not a good idea to introduce us in election. At least some people should know us (currently the num is too low) before.
Also I'll surely help, support and do what ever i could if any of us is contesting in election.

@arkarjun , @suneesh would you folks still oppose if others are willing to take all the efforts? Are you so certain that it will not help us all? If you don't want to participate but okay for others to do it, may be abstain would be a better option. But if you think this is a totally bad idea for us, then it makes sense for you to stick to No.
