Government of India has decided to celebrate January 25th every year as "National Voters' Day", in order to encourage more young voters to take part in the political process.
As part of the Voters' Day celebrations, new voters of 18 years and more will be enrolled in all the polling station areas in the country. They will be handed over the Electoral Photo Identity Card (EPIC) at felicitations to be organised in the polling station areas. A badge, with a logo and slogan "Proud to be a voter - Ready to vote," will also be given to the new voters, the release added. In 1988, the constitution was amended to lower the voting age from 21 years to 18 years.
It is aimed to provide the unrepresented youth of the country an opportunity to give vent to their feelings and help them become a part of the political process. It has been noticed that the new voters, of 18 years and just above, are not getting enrolled in the electoral rolls in a big way year after year and in certain cases, the level of their enrollment is as low as 20 to 25 percent. In this context, the Election Commission has decided to take up a vigorous exercise to identify all eligible voters attaining the age of 18 years on Jan 1st every year, in all the 8.5 lakh polling station areas of the country.
Such eligible voters would be enrolled on time and handed over their Electoral Photo Identity Card (EPIC) on 25th January every year and this initiative is expected to give the youth a sense of responsible citizenship, empowerment, pride and participation, and inspire them to exercise their newly acquired franchise, when occasion arises.

11.11.11 - A date once in a century, many things planned by many on this day. Hope the day goes for all as planned and does not get panned.
Just for Info...
Google is shutting down the last remnants of Google Buzz to focus on Google+, the company announced on Friday, 14th Oct'11.
“In a few weeks we’ll shut down Google Buzz and the Buzz API, and focus instead on Google+,” Bradley Horowitz, Google’s vice president of product, wrote on The Official Google Blog. “While people obviously won’t be able to create new posts after that, they will be able to view their existing content on their Google Profile, and download it using Google Takeout.”
In addition, Google is shuttering Code Search on 15th Jan 2012 and other social media offerings, including the Twitter-like Jaiku — which will also be discontinued on that date — and iGoogle’s social features. As previously announced, Google Labs will also shut down.
Launched in February 2010, Google Buzz was initially seen as a threat to Twitter and Facebook, but never lived up to its promise, becoming one of the biggest flops of the year. It is likely that Buzz will be viewed as a forerunner to Google+, which had a stronger start, hitting 40 million users in its first three months, according to Google CEO Larry Page.

All the best and take care….With thanks, regards and best wishes,Srikanth.G [G for Gadwal... not Google :)].

A diwali dhamaka damdaar performance by Indian Cricket team on the eve of Diwali. Routing England to 5-0 defeat in ODI series, men in blue completed the white wash or say the blue wash of England team. Certainly cherishable moments... And so the fireworks are ignited... Dham Dhoom 'Dhoni' Dhana Dhan...!!!
Wish you all; a very happy, joyful and safe Diwali (26/10/11)...All the best and take care.

చిన్నప్పటి మాటకి, ఇప్పటి బాటకి; ఉన్నదా సారూప్యం!!! ఏది నిజం, ఏది గోప్యం?
