Today in Kennedy hall, the presentation given by the political scientists was spectacular. It made me think about the voting system like never before. What stood out to me the most was the point on election frauds and how impactful they can be on changing the course of an election. Coming from India, where corruption is well known, I myself in my childhood have read countless stories where many politicians have bribed external organisations to deliberately interfere in the election process to manipulate their votes and raise their chances of getting elected. This has led to a lot of instability in places in India as well as riots and it just shows to me once again how important it is for a higher authority to make sure the process always remains fair.
