This is, indeed, an interesting and intelligent debate.
We may devise an action program from the evolved conclusions.

What a coincidence, just 2 or 3 days back ex CEC Mr. Krishnamurthy was attending a Nation Building meet at India International Centre where Baba Ramdev was the prominent invitee. This NOTA 49-O was also referred to him there in his brief address along with the criminalisation of politics.
Pure Negative voting is the only way to weed out corrupt and criminal elements from politics. Since nowadays most MPs get in with about 35% of the vote, the 15-20% votes of the intelligensia (who don't vote at present in this rigged system) if channeled properly will wipe out such fellows.
with best wishes

Dear Sarbjit
In 2004 the Election Commission had sent a letter to the PMO listing 8 or 10 points for urgent electoral reform. One of these was Negative/Neutral voting. The Hindustan Republican Association had submitted over 1,200 representations asking for the Negative voting as you have described.
The then CEC T.N Krishnamurthy was a pliable fellow who is great believer in Saibaba philosophy. It was arranged that a Writ Petition was filed in the Supreme Court by the PUCL asking for Neutral voting - ie. the Rule 49 O option. Krishnamurthy then clubbed and obfuscated the Negative Voting and Neutral Voting concepts in his report to make it seem that they are one and the same thing.
The Negative Voting -1 Vote concept has to properly explained to IAC's members so that these operators and fixers like Krishnamurthy, who are still in business, are exposed.
