<p>I did NOT (shame on me) and I am not sure how do I?</p>
<p>There are probably million Indians ( not sure of number) who are spread across the world due to their nature of work or personal choice, but are Indian citizens who do not get to participate in the biggest democratic event in the world, and the only way to hope for ‘change’.</p>
<p>I am surprised that how political parties can be ignorant of this so called NRI population, which can be very instrumental not only in the progress of country by voting and help choose <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">right</span> best possible <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">leaders</span> parties, but also by contributing to all the spheres of lives due to their exposure.</p>
<p>Please guide me if I am being ignorant of any processes already set in place for NRIs to participate in Indian democracy OR leave a comment below sharing how you feel when you get to lead by set of people you never got a chance to elect.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I got perturbed and so I am now, seeing how easy it is to enter into Indian territory and do menacefull activities like what it is currently going on in <a href="http://www.time.com/time/world/article/0,8599,1862566,00.html?imw=Y" target="_blank">Mumbai</a>.</p>
<p>I dont see any &#8216;sena&#8217; fighting against actual terrorism who are just good to rampage other civilians on otherwise normal days to kill and beat out fellow Indians. I havent heard any thought provoking speech from infamous <em>raj</em>nitig which can boost people to fight against any evil ( or so called evil).</p>
<p><strong>Time to wake up!!</strong></p>
<p>I have strong believe that India has all it needs to be strong and successfull but surely it needs a commitment. Commitment from politician to come out of dirty politics and think about India first (wondering if they get time to think about india) &amp; Commitment from civilians to realize the facts that its important to be together and to not get misguided by mean politicians.</p>
<p>Together we stand, alone will fall apart.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What an article by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shobha_De" target="_blank">Shobha De</a>. Sketching out a very true picture of Raj Thackrey, infamous politician of Maharashta.</p>
<p>Sharing few excerpts</p>
<blockquote><p>Raj Thackeray was elevated from being the discarded Thackeray to a national figure. In one well-orchestrated move, you went from being a neglected nephew of an ageing tiger, to a sharp-clawed, teeth-baring cub with an independent act of his own. The circus acquired a brand new star attraction — you!</p></blockquote>
<p>Truely Raj Thackrey is a national figure, but I am sure people hate him, including real marathi manoos like Shobha, who have their hard-disk above shoulder still functional and not corrupted.</p>
<p>I am concerned about how secure would be Shobha De in Mumbai after writing such a inflammable article. You surely have <a href="http://priyanka-hr.blogspot.com/2008/10/article-by-shoba-de-me-marathi.html" target="_blank">guts</a>.</p>
<p>Must read complete article <a href="http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/articleshow/2788526.cms" target="_blank">here</a></p>
