Rajanna-Sircilla: TS Planning Board Vice-Chairman B Vinod Kumar has emphasized the need for a radical change in the Indian election process to provide a better electoral system for future generations.

Narendra Modi became the Prime Minister on behalf of the BJP, which got only 32 percent votes. Though more than 60 percent of the people rejected the BJP, it still formed the government at the Centre. So, it was necessary to make changes to the electoral process.
