How India runs the world's biggest election REACTION!! 

What other videos should we react to???

The way india orgznises voting is worth applauding ...and yes with in 2 km you will have a polling station

They setup poling booth even when single person is living in an area. In newton you saw polling booth setup for few dozen people in remote area.

There's a lone resident in the Gir Forest of Gujrat. A caretaker. And even he gets his own personal polling booth every year. This is one of those many things about our country, regardless of shifting governments, that has always been constant. When you fight and suffer hard for something you know what it's worth.

On voting day people dress up like they are going to a festival, voting day is looked up on as a day of celebration in our country

2 km is maximum. My polling booth is just 200 meters away from my home.

I have voted thrice in National elections, and never walked for more than 10 mins to voting station.

OSR, My voting station is at the corner down the road from my home. Takes 2 mins of walking 2 mins in line 2 mins for verification of identity document ( voting card or any other permitted ids) 1 min of voting 2 mins walk back to home. In total it hardly takes 10 mins and we get tge entire day off for voting and we can go and vote at any time between morning 7 to evening 5 or 6. That's how it is. The marking ink is only manufactured in Mysore city of Karnataka state and supplied to every corner of the nation and ink stays for min 15 days on the finger. Anyone and everyone 18 and above with any kind of authentic identity document can go and vote in his residential area if he/ she is tge citizen of India. The postal voting system is made available for the officials and army people who are away from home and can't be present in voting boot to cast their vote. Our voting % turnout depends on the candidates standing for election. There is a form provided for casting NOTA = no vote to any candidate but i have casted my vote against all candidates participating for this seat in this election.

Nobody I know has had their polling booth more than 500 meters away from their house! 2kms is rare.

Voting is our responsibility and a right for every Indian to choose their government to rule the country. Although there are so many measures followed there is still many dirty activities which parties do to get vote is something sad. For a Indian citizen it is a great loss if they don't vote. It is something we are proud of . We don't need to travel so much . Hardly one km we walk there will be a place for us to vote . Every person has a institution were they can go and vote.

My dad is a Govt official, so he's often alloted election duty. And even though we live in a very much mainland part of India, his shift for that day can go anywhere between 20-26 hours, until the machines are securely deposited back. I cant even imagine the time officials in other remote parts would've to spend to finish their task. These are mainly Govt teachers, Govt service employees, etc. And ofcourse the police and military personnel.

Fun Fact: Applause needs to be given to US as well as they had even taken the votes from the Astronauts from space.

Voteing is like a festival

My mom was one of the election officials and it is very complicated process. She needs to travel a long distance from city to some remote village and there are no proper facilities for women to stay there for 2 days of election process. I used to pick her up at midnight and again get back to polling station by early morning and its not very easy situation If you are a teacher in a government school, then you must become a part of election process and Census process, otherwise they are gonna send you to jail. Teachers in this nation are most overused and underrated for the amount of job they accomplish.

There was some news that the USA could study the way the election was organised in India and use some of the aspects like the EVMs etc to improve the service in the USA, but it was outright rejected because of their ego as it was below their dignity to learn something from a poor third world country.

I moved to the US from India just after I turned 18, so my first election was in the US after I became a citizen. I was absolutely SHOCKED by most of my born-here American coworkers who said they didn't vote. I told them a similar thing to what Rick says, that they have no right to ever complain if they can't do something as simple as vote. But they were just showed such apathy not realizing how lucky they are they get the right to vote. It is a shame, and makes no sense to me. Really hoping this year people come out to vote for the right candidate. We desperately need to save our democracy this election.

Symbols are not only because of the literacy level but also for the fairness just like in the US!

It is absolutely true. The polling station is at walking distance so that every person can reach there.

One of my friends was presiding officer and due to tough terrain had to walk, the whole team with 4 military personnel. They got chased by a wild elephant military person fired in air to scare him away only after a minute. But for a minute he ran faster than elephant. We laugh at it now. But its scary.

In gujrat there is polling station for one person

Yes... You can complain if the polling station is not within 2 km of your place.

My polling booth is 50 meters from my home. Election commision is probably one of the best govt organisations of india.

People in our country were denied a voice for soo long that now we make the most of it. It is very satisfying to hear this.

One Incredible fact: Polling booth is set up for one voter, just one voter in the forest of Gir in Gujarat.

This video is nothing. Its more than what its shown here.

Fun Fact: *We have many many options rather than just Republicans and Democrats.* ✌️

Voting day is a holiday and all cinemas etc are closed till evening (when voting ends)

A few states and union territories register a voting percentage of around 80 percent, but the overall voter turnout of India is just around 67 percent.

This video was nice but depicted only 10% of the complexity and exercise required. So my suggestion to react on a different video of a longer duration.

They mentioned Tripathi.. Pankaj Tripathi is coming on the channel😍😍😍😍😍 Hopefully 🤞🏻😅

"UNDA " malayalam movie based on this election booth capture by maoist

Most of videos shot by westerner are stereotyped and only show negative or poor part of India. We come to know India's poverty tru our western media. We only see big cities, metro trains and massive infrastructure development when we come out of our house. Western world is still obsessed with our poverty. Pls check out this video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-qtAp8l7ah5Y.html

I didn't know that every booth is within 2km range but it makes sense as I have to just walk 500 metres to my booth .

Ikr I participated in the election by using my laptop to send live feed of Voting to our Sector officer and the Election commission. It's Chaotic and Interesting at the same time❤️😉

Korbin connected Hindustani baahu's meme with voting ink?👆🤯

They want people believe India look like this only. There is other side.

A question I always wanted to ask : If we did away with the election symbols like a hand, an umbrella, a lotus, etc... and expected all the citizens to cast their votes for their candidates only by reading their names, how fast will the political parties work towards educating the population???

Election commission of India has all powers they're mad at that time applying strict rules

That VOTING INK is a patented one! Developed specifically for this purpose and is exported too in some cases.

In every video where does Korbin stand up and go and comes back in 0.1 sec😅😅😅

The Election Commission of India definitely deserves credit for planning these so meticulously. Kudos too, to all the officials from various govt departments, police and paramilitary forces who step in to ensure the smooth conduct. Considering the scale at which elections are conducted in India, I would call them a huge success despite the few incidents that are reported here and there. Unless, there are some health or age related issues, the polling booths are definitely an easy walking distance for a majority of the voters.

Largest democracy in the world..... INDIA never skipped any single election since independence and it's our duty to vote and ensure constitutionalism... Govt - by the people, for the people, of the people 👍👍👍

My voting booth is just 100 mtrs away from my home. Its super easy to vote in india

Fun fact : The NON - ERASABLE INK used throughout India and few other countries is supplied and made in MYSORE, KARNATAKA, INDIA...

I voted for the first time too in 2019 election..was a great experience..

My voting booth is just two buildings away from my home.....and on the voting day it's like a carnival

Korbin being entirely and utterly *DONE* with america is an entire mood honestly. 😂 Nov 3 is gonna be a dumpster 🔥

Poling Station is established in every villages' government school, in village itself.

Highest polling station inthe world is Tashigam(Sorry for the spelling mistakes), Himachal pradesh, that too for less than 80 peoples. I'm from kerala ,far south

I have never seen polling booth more than 500-600 meters away from my home.

Honestly we are two busy to criticize our gov for n no of things but qe forget to appriciate the good things and almost impossible tasks undertaken by them. I mean we do have polling booths every 2 km. In fact in cities like Mumbai its every 200 mts (personal experience). Even country like USA doesn't take so much of an effort. Proud of my country ❤️.

Yes. It is true. In my case my polling booth is merely 0.5 km away.

added to all the opinions... India is one of few countries that gave equal rights to vote regardless of gender, caste, class and creed.

In 2019 General election , l was posted as Presiding Officer !!!! I must tell you that it isn't a cake walk ....but lm really proud that l contribute something to my beloved country in world's biggest democratic exercise

Low voter turnout is a problem here as well in developed areas like Mumbai, Bangalore etc

2 KMs?... That's way too much😂 We have polling station everywhere

We are proud of our Election Commission who conducts free and fair elections continiously.

The two km polling booth is true We can just walk to the polling stations with our voters ID an just go vote. Government schools and anganwadi schools are the polling stations. This elections all records were broken. The election campaign reaches its crescendo as the date of elections come near.

My polling station is 100m away from my place. I even asked the EC officials that if you want to then you can put the polling station in the front lawn as well. He gave me the coldest look I have ever gotten😜😜

There is music and dance for the entire election month on every street in India !

I just walk 100 metres from my home to vote.

And that ink remains for 7-15 days so that you don't wash it lol

2 km max distance for anyone to go to vote (so that the poorest can walk to and fro) has been achieved so dedicatedly that in the state of Gujarat there is a polling booth in 'Gir forest' set up for just one - yes, ONE - voter, who is the only resident and caretaker of the Asiatic lions under conservation in that forest area. It's a record.

There is Booth setup every election Somewhere in Gujarat State Forest where there is only 'One' Registered Voter. Still Election Commission follow all the process

Govt. School teachera and all the defence forces work so hard for the smooth functioning of elections in India.

I had a smile 😇 everytime you guys got the references, especially the Hindustani bhau meme, for the people voted pics

In Gir forest there is only one registered voter and they set up a polling station just for him due to 2 km rule

Students are recruited for tech support for 500 per day. To make the entire process paperless. Students with a laptop can apply and all the paperwork was turned digital. This was done in experimental basis.

I am Indian and from Mumbai and did not know some of this, Thank you! True there is a polling station every 2 km

They just touched the surface of election procdeur.. There's more to it. And also I think u know that india is not like this only as shown in video but other people must also know that.

There is a place in western India where the election commission setup a pooling booth for just 1 person in the area.

My polling station is 200m away from my home..... 😂😂😂

I voted in a polling stations just 100steps from my house. 😎😎

It is true....infact i have 3 polling stations within 2 km of my house

You watched a video where once they showed that there's a polling both just for ONE PERSON in the GIR forest in Gujarat.

In Himalayas there is a buddhist temple with a monk who gets his personal voting station....

My voting booth was about 200 meters from my door. Also, we get a holiday on the election day to encourage. voting.

'We have this thing called voter suppression here...' LMFAO

wherever I lived, polling stations were within 500m radius

Yes, it is true. They also have a voting station set up in the middle of a forest where there is a temple with 1 priest located. That polling station is set up to get within 2 km of that 1 person.

Yes it is true that you will find your voting booth within 2KMs of your house and this achieved with a very high success rate. With electronic voting machines and verified paper trail that confirms that the vote was registered in the favor of candidate that you really voted is a fantastic success. Frankly just due to it the complexities involved Indian election process is light years ahead in experience and process than anywhere else.

I live in a small town. We have 6 polling stations here. I have to go to the farthest one from my home because unfortunately that's where my name is registered. That's like 12 minutes walking from my home. Lol. 😆

Also the maximum voters allowed in one polling station is 1500. That prevents discouragement to vote because of voting lines unlike USA where some people have to wait hours to vote.

Elections in India are for electing Members-of-Parliament (MPs) at national parliament and Members-of-Legislative-Assemblies (MLAs) at state or UT legislative assemblies, representing their constituencies and not for electing Prime Minister (PM). The party/coalition of parties having majority in the house are invited to form government by President and then the party/coalition nominates one of them to lead the ministerial cabinet (essentially PM). Similar process is followed to nominate the Chief Minister (CM) of the state / UT by party/coalition enjoying majority in state legislative assemblies.

There is a man who lives in the Gir Forest in Gujarat. One polling booth is set up only for him because no one else lives there. That man stays there with the lions of the forest. That's my India❤️

Polling station is just 100 steps away from my house 😄

The guy just said they are able to achieve but u were taking then. 😊😜

It is actually true the 2 km thing......the polling station in which i cast my vote is just 200 mtrs from my house......incredible isn't it😀

yess its true its a 2 km radius and now let me tell u now the security around the booth is so high that u can't even think of tampering

I believe there are some volunteers who even take those cannot go by themselves in their area to the polling station so they can vote too😃😀. Some even serve water n waiting areas during summers.

It is not actually an effort that the polling booth be within 2KMs. It is actually within the constitution that it be within easily accessible range of walking distance.

My voting poll station is just 80mts away from home!!!!!

Surpried that the booth set up inside the Ranthambore forest for that 1 voter didnt get mentioned.

I literally have to walk for 2 minutes to go to my poling station. And in rural areas too, the stations are within two kms.

Because every vote is important.

Yep its true we have polling booth within 2km radius, sometime multiple booths and one has to go to the booth as per his ears number where his name is enrolled...👍

In Urban Cities, it's even less than 2 Km. I live in Navi Mumbai and I had 2 polling stations within 500 m of my house.

Manpower is India's greatest asset. I hope some day , India also has this democratic and equal approach to employment opportunities and no one needs to move out of the country for opportunities

What he says is very very true? Sometimes our names get omitted from the list. So we have to make sure much earlier that our name is on the voters list.

It is true , every voters have their voting Office within 2 kms , in 2019 I was also an election officer , all said in these video is totally correct , there are villages where there are just one vote too n election office reaches there too, none is missed
