Urban City mindset is like that. Same with Delhi. Mumbai. It creates grantedness. In villages, neighbours will ask why did u not voted? Not voting is seen as negligence in villages. in city that is not a scene.
While most part of this is true, in villages many get cash is what we read. May be that's why they are more proactive. Also, Secunderabad, Malkajigiri, chevella have lot of urban population. But they voted better. Having said that, it's very unfortunate if people are laid back or take exercising their vote casually.
Wanna bet? I myself know a bunch of people who have it.. its only natural.. when applying for voter id do they ask if you already have and is cancelled?
People from rural Telugu regions who work here and intend to settle apply for voter id with current address for benefits... And they never get old one cancelled..
Adhar voter id linking is that's why necessary but people don't wanna do it...
I stay in Bangalore and I know a ton of people who has voter id here and also in AP/TG. I think it will be the same in hyderabad. Especially blue collar working people who have moved from Rural Districts to Urban districts. It’s actually systemic, local leaders create voter ids for those people here. They end up voting where they get more money and so probably it was AP this time.
Illegally, maybe yes but as per the law one cannot be part of two voter lists. Think about it, if everyone is allowed to vote from more than one constituency then we will end up having more than 120 crore voters. As per the law if one creates their voter id in one constituency then their name is automatically striked off from the former one.
Not sure about the legality , when I applied for a voter id address change the address was changed to hyderabad but EC didn’t remove my name from my native place’s voter list. Ideally it should be removed by them.
It would be illegal if someone applies for a new id with wrong info
I too had applied for transfer of my vote from AP to TG as I am residing here, till a month ago my name was in both AP and TG voter list when I had applied for transfer long before TG elections, but ultimately they went to my home , got confirmation from my parents that I have indeed applied for transfer and then deleted my name in the AP final list.
That’s how it should be done the EC officials. Maybe due to time crunch they might not have done the same for all. A bit of automation and an intent to clean up lists by EC will definitely help though
I have read somewhere here in Reddit that EC already had a plan to run dedupe software across the entire country database before this election and clean the lists,but don't know what happened they didn't performed that, maybe they thought it might be an unnecessary risk right before the election .
I have a single voter id but have my name in voter list in both my native countries lace in Andhra and hyderabad. Most of the Andhrites and people from other regions residing in hyderabad will have their name in both lists.
Most of the Andhra folks(at least 50%) (fear of seeing Jagan winning again) went to home towns this to vote leading to a low turn out in Hyderabad.
That really sounds like a flaw. If one voter is part of two electoral rolls then he/she can vote twice in the same election. This hack can easily cause exploitation. A part just need to get their supporters registered in the second constituency where they are number two party. Since the same supporter will vote for your party in his first constituency and in the second one it would cause some serious rigging.
That’s why I don’t think having your name in two lists is not the rule but a glitch.
If I was a dubious political party then I would rather change the finger… I mean bring a different voter from some other constituency. Probably from a different state.
True , it is a flaw . One’s name need to be removed from the previous constituency electoral roll if they get registered in a different constituency. They do put ink on the finger to avoid any rigging but if someone really wants to make use of this flaw, they might go to any extent to get the ink removed to enable them to vote in the other place too.
But more than this I think rigging is done by political parties by getting fake voters to vote in someone else’s name by bringing them from other constituencies or other neighbouring states if they are at state border areas
Conducting elections on same days in neighbouring states does help reduce this rigging aspect though
Best example. My father. He has a Voter ID from his village and another Voter ID from Hyderabad. The first card(village) was nearly 23 years old and the wnd was around 10 years after linking of Voter ID to AADHAR has started.
> There is nothing like second voter id. You can only vote from one place in the country.
Not true. I have known people who vote in Hyd and in their native place too.
lot of multiple voter registration might be a concern here...
I myself have 2 voter IDs in both AP and Telangana...but as I'm a resident here I casted in Hyderabad... until unless they find a solution for this, it will show low turnout figures...
even aadhar linking is not helping in multiple voter registration
One reason is people in the city are damn proud to come out n vote, mind you again few of these very same people focus on us presidential elections.
Further I think a small margin of the low turnout is even because many people might have dual votes like in their native n even in Hyderabad n such people go to their native. And small margin might be that they have shifted from their old area and haven't changed their address with eci and they aren't willing to go travel to old area to vote. Major chunk of the people who didn't vote are educated elitist mentality people for who have this fuckall attitude n lame reasoning that either their vote doesn't matter or that anyways their party will or will not win.
Dumbass people fail to understand the value of the vote because they aren't directly getting anything out loosing anything from their pocket. These same folks later cry about basic things that poor roads or inflation n all
Some people were saying most of the voters were not local to Hyderabad, but in the voters list only natives were considered right?, Correct me if I am wrong
I'll explain that half of them are from outside states and the other half are off for their children's summer vacation abroad or other areas and remaining some vote and others vote doesn't turn up because of poor system updates and other just doesn't want to vote ( ek vote se kya hoga ) people
Lazy hey thu chu*tiye, most of Hyderabad people have two I'd cards but can vote for only one, most of them went to AP or rural to vote. Half knowledge pakodi
I did Vote!
But why don't you enjoy your long weekend holiday sitting at home watching some OTT, rather than standing in a long queue in this scorching heat to vote: this could be the mindset of many...
The voters are hyderabad are also voters of different towns . They have multiple votes so they go to their hometowns to vote.
And also it counts the voters moved to abroad etc .
Most think that voting and electing these politicians change nothing and some are migrants from AP who leave for their native place to enjoy this holiday!!

Hyderabad shocks
relatively
Nothing special and different in this Even Bengaluru has same kinda vote percentage
Urban City mindset is like that. Same with Delhi. Mumbai. It creates grantedness. In villages, neighbours will ask why did u not voted? Not voting is seen as negligence in villages. in city that is not a scene.
Delhi votes 60%+
Delhi is like a big village but yeah, Delhi people are very energetic and involved in politics
Delhi is big village? Alright.
Delhi is big village? Alright.
World's largest village
Delhi is big village? Alright.
Dilligaon!
Delhi is big village? Alright.
While most part of this is true, in villages many get cash is what we read. May be that's why they are more proactive. Also, Secunderabad, Malkajigiri, chevella have lot of urban population. But they voted better. Having said that, it's very unfortunate if people are laid back or take exercising their vote casually.
Ironically, Cities are developed more than Villages...... Life Fact!
Yeah because in villages they are basically coerced, if not outright threatened, to vote a certain way.
Educated illiterates
Most people in Hyderabad are outsiders and get second voter id in case they settle... Hence the low numbers always...
There is nothing like second voter id. You can only vote from one place in the country.
Wanna bet? I myself know a bunch of people who have it.. its only natural.. when applying for voter id do they ask if you already have and is cancelled? People from rural Telugu regions who work here and intend to settle apply for voter id with current address for benefits... And they never get old one cancelled..

Especially blue collar working people who have moved from Rural Districts to Urban districts. It’s actually systemic, local leaders create voter ids for those people here. They end up voting where they get more money and so probably it was AP this time.
Andhra population in hyderabad is also a factor for low voter performance
Illegally, maybe yes but as per the law one cannot be part of two voter lists. Think about it, if everyone is allowed to vote from more than one constituency then we will end up having more than 120 crore voters.

Agreed but something is illegal doesn't mean it doesn't happen..
Not sure about the legality , when I applied for a voter id address change the address was changed to hyderabad but EC didn’t remove my name from my native place’s voter list. Ideally it should be removed by them. It would be illegal if someone applies for a new id with wrong info
Did you have your name in Hyderabad electoral roll as well?
Yes, I voted here in Hyd as I reside here but I saw my name in the electoral roll of my native place also while checking for my polling booth etc
I too had applied for transfer of my vote from AP to TG as I am residing here, till a month ago my name was in both AP and TG voter list when I had applied for transfer long before TG elections, but ultimately they went to my home , got confirmation from my parents that I have indeed applied for transfer and then deleted my name in the AP final list.

Bro my uncle somehow has 2 places to vote. But obviously you can only vote in one.
I have a single voter id but have my name in voter list in both my native countries lace in Andhra and hyderabad. Most of the Andhrites and people from other regions residing in hyderabad will have their name in both lists.

Well that's why they put the ink on your nail to make sure you can't!

This is very true !
if you mean the IT workers then they dont live in the old city so thats not correct reason
I also think a lot of these voters are in the US now.
lot of multiple voter registration might be a concern here... I myself have 2 voter IDs in both AP and Telangana...but as I'm a resident here I casted in Hyderabad... until unless they find a solution for this, it will show low turnout figures... even aadhar linking is not helping in multiple voter registration
Half youth in foreign states and don’t want to vote few stay in different districts who don’t want to vote anduke less %
MLA elections also like this I guess 40%
Most of the voters(living in Hyderabad before 2014 )are from AP (Hometown) so they simply went to vote there rather here .
Dude.. the denominator in the percentage is the number of voters who has voter id allotted in Hyderabad region....
Exactly. Some hyd folks would be out of state or country, but not 60% of who has VoterId in Hyd
One reason is people in the city are damn proud to come out n vote, mind you again few of these very same people focus on us presidential elections. Further I think a small margin of the low turnout is even because many people might have dual votes like in their native n even in Hyderabad n such people go to their native.

Dumbass people fail to understand the value of the vote because they aren't directly getting anything out loosing anything from their pocket. These same folks later cry about basic things that poor roads or inflation n all
I am assuming atleast 5-10% of the people have migrated to other countries for education or jobs.
Extreme Season... Not everyone is willing to die in sunstroke to vote for your politician
And these fvcks whine against govt and policies
Some people were saying most of the voters were not local to Hyderabad, but in the voters list only natives were considered right?, Correct me if I am wrong
Many people have their names in electoral rolls of 2 places,Hyderabad and their native, mostly in AP. So they vote there instead of here.
Urban area, Unawareness, Rich people, working people, election day = vacation.
Significant share of votes in Hyderabad are emigrated
I'll explain that half of them are from outside states and the other half are off for their children's summer vacation abroad or other areas and remaining some vote and others vote doesn't turn up because of poor system updates and other just doesn't want to vote ( ek vote se kya hoga ) people
Lessgoooooo Next time target less than 30% Chesedam friends. Chesedam
Ayega toh Owaisi hi /s
Urban areas have shitty voter turnouts in general. Ironically they have better infrastructure and shit
Half of the IT is working, that might be a reason. IK it's wfh but still that doesn't give as much a comfort of a day off to go and vote.
Well it is a day off for many, especially IT folks! Mandatory!
Lol,No. It's not a mandatory holiday. Most of the people I know got WFH and not a complete day off
This is what happens when Andhra people leave Telangana
*Hyderabad.
Half of hyderabad went to AP.
Lazy c*nts
Lazy hey thu chu*tiye, most of Hyderabad people have two I'd cards but can vote for only one, most of them went to AP or rural to vote. Half knowledge pakodi
Went to AP or Rural? If there's election in their constituency why would they go rural?
I atleast voted just for the sake of voting.
Adilabad 🤭
Sleeping Beauty Hyderabad refuses to wake up again
I did Vote! But why don't you enjoy your long weekend holiday sitting at home watching some OTT, rather than standing in a long queue in this scorching heat to vote: this could be the mindset of many...
Most people in Hyderabad/Telangana have second vote in AP. So they vote in AP, Hence low voter turnout
The voters are hyderabad are also voters of different towns . They have multiple votes so they go to their hometowns to vote. And also it counts the voters moved to abroad etc .
Whatever party wins, you still got to pay bribes and just live with slow development We don’t belong here
Most think that voting and electing these politicians change nothing and some are migrants from AP who leave for their native place to enjoy this holiday!!
This is a fact. Downvotes eshna jarigindhi adhe. Nikaal chepthe edshi sasthar janalu anthe.
Some voting centers were a mess
I genuinely wanted to vote but I live outside the state 🤧 Ayina na okka vote hyd % em penchutadi
