Anyway, in this election, all Indian parties have so far not complained and
accepted the results. Can anyone point me to a utopian democracy without
rumours?
Not Indiabut USA, this is not rumor :
Two daysbefore the January 6 insurrection, the Trump campaign’s plan touse fake
electors toblock President-elect Joe Biden from taking office faced a
potentiallycrippling hiccup: The fake elector certificates from two critical
battlegroundstates were stuck in the mail.
So, Trumpcampaign operatives scrambled to fly copies of the phony certificates
from Michigan and Wisconsin tothe nation’s capital, relying on a haphazard
chain of couriers, as well as helpfrom two Republicans in Congress, to try to
get the documents to then-VicePresident Mike Pence while he presided over the
Electoral Collegecertification.
Theoperatives even considered chartering a jet to ensure the files
reachedWashington, DC, in time for the January 6, 2021, proceeding, according
toemails and recordings obtained by CNN.

As far as the EVMs go, they are still suspect, 'black boxes' and no one but a
small clique knows how the machines work or who (technically) controls these
machines.
Until the source code is made publicly auditable, and we know who has access to
these machines and under what conditions (to load candidates' names, symbols
etc), the EVMs will continue to be suspect.
The Election Commission's obstinate reluctance to be transparent on this is
incomprehensible. So is the Supreme Court's lack of understanding of how Open
Source Software works, and the security and easy-correctability this offers.
The debate over the EVMs is far from over, even if political parties tend to
have a very short term view over this.

Pedro, Since you seem to be under the impression that Portuguese people in
general dislike and discriminate against people from India, I would like to
remind you that there are almost 35,000 Indian citizens legally living in
Portugal, as well as nearly 25,000 Nepalese, who are mostly Hindu. Not to
mention the 20,000 Goans who are Portuguese citizens and live in Portugal.
There may be occasional manifestations of racism from some idiotic Portuguese
in respect of those people, but generally speaking we respect them, easily
associate with them and respect their hard work and contribution to our
country's prosperity. We know Indian civilization is about 5,000 years old,
that it is highly developed, and most of us sincerely respect it. The Hindu
temple in Lisbon is visited by many Portuguese people who would like to know
more about the Indian culture and civilization. So, please be assured that our
feelings about India, India's culture, Indian immigrants in Portugal, and
Portuguese citizens of Indian descent, is most positive. We might have dealt
better with Goa and Goans before 1961, but I doubt that would have made any
difference to India's ambition to take over Goa. Best regards Nuno Sent:

Subject: Re: [GRN] Once again democracy prevailed in India. Are you saying that
with the manipulation of EVMs, Modi -NDA- saw his power diminish? And Rahul and
Viriato gain the MP seats? Do you, living abroad, know more than Rahul Gandhi
and Parliament-elect Captain Viriato Fernandes (Goa)? So why didn't they
protest? I understand the desperation of some abroad. They do not present any
evidence of cheating. Your class mate Viriato fully believes in Indian
democracy, which is why he ran for MP and served in the Indian armed forces
with great pride. India: Fifth largest economy in the world, in addition to
being a space and nuclear power.Regards On Wednesday, June 5, 2024 at 05:58:56

Once again democracy prevailed in India.
Around 642 million people, more than 10% of the world's population, were able
to vote after the polls opened in mid-April, with an average turnout of around
66% across the seven phases. Lok Sabha election India set a world record.
The entire counting process was described as "absolutely robust," and all
issues raised by multi-party delegations were addressed.
Over 68,000 monitoring teams and 1.5 crore polling and security personnel were
involved and over 90% of 495 complaints of Model Code of Conduct violations
disposed during elections. Some 642 million people cast their vote in the
world’s largest election, as swathes of the country was blanketed in searing
heat, making people sick and killing dozens.
India, the country of 1.4 billion people has become the world’s fastest-growing
major economy and a modern global power, making strides in technology and
space. Yet, despite these successes, poverty and youth unemployment persist –
particularly in rural areas – and the wealth gap has widened.
Goa: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Shripad Naik won the North Goa Lok
Sabha seat for the sixth consecutive term on Tuesday, while Congress-led Indian
National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (INDIA) candidate Viriato Fernandes
succeeded in retaining the party’s South Goa parliamentary seat.
Many watchdogs have categorised India as a "hybrid regime" that is neither a
full democracy nor a full autocracy.
