जैसे कि मालदीव ने अब इजरायलियों के आने पर बैन लगा दिया हैं, यह कुछ खूबसूरत और अद्भुत भारतीय समुद्र तट हैं जहाँ इजरायली पर्यटकों का हार्दिक स्वागत होता हैं और बेहद आदर सत्कार दिया जाता हैं। 🏖️🇮🇳

Did you know that in Indore, NOTA (None Of The Above) received over 2 lakh votes, making it the highest number of NOTA votes in any constituency to date?
But what is NOTA, and why was it introduced?
In 2004, the People's Union for Civil Liberties (PUCL) approached the Supreme Court seeking measures to protect the 'right to secrecy' of voters who choose not to vote.

In 2013, the Supreme Court directed the Election Commission of India to introduce NOTA to protect the secrecy of voters' choices. Before NOTA, voters who chose not to vote would have their names recorded, violating their right to secrecy.
But what happens if NOTA receives the highest number of votes in a constituency? Currently, the second most successful candidate wins, but a petition is pending in the Supreme Court to make elections null and void if NOTA gets the most votes.
Should NOTA have more power in elections? Share your thoughts in the comments!
