The power of a voter in a democracy is the cornerstone of a thriving society, representing the essence of freedom, equality, and active civic participation. In democratic nations, the act of voting is not merely a right but a responsibility that empowers individuals to shape the course of their nation.
One of the most significant aspects of the power of a voter lies in its ability to hold leaders accountable. By casting their ballots, voters choose representatives who will safeguard their interests, make decisions on policies, and ensure the welfare of the society. This selection process ensures that those in power are answerable to the people, fostering transparency and responsibility within the government.
Moreover, the power of a voter is instrumental in promoting social change. Through voting, citizens can advocate for reforms, challenge societal norms, and address pressing issues such as inequality, discrimination, and environmental concerns. By supporting candidates and policies that align with their values, voters become catalysts for progress, driving positive transformations in their communities and beyond.
Additionally, the power of a voter extends beyond national elections. Participation in local and regional elections enables citizens to influence decisions at the grassroots level, shaping the development of their immediate surroundings. This localized impact reinforces the democratic values of decentralization and community-driven governance.
In essence, the power of a voter in a democracy is not just a right exercised at the ballot box; it is a force that shapes the very fabric of society. It empowers individuals to contribute to the collective decision-making process, ensuring that the government remains accountable, responsive, and representative of the people it serves. Through their votes, citizens become architects of social progress, advocates for justice, and guardians of democratic ideals.
Let’s all remember Abraham Lincoln’s definition “Democracy is a government of the people, by the people, and for the people.”; and the VOTER is the champion of that ‘people’.

Diwali holds multifaceted significance across various communities
Diwali holds immense cultural, religious, and historical significance for Hindus, Sikhs, Jains, and some Buddhists. The festival symbolizes the victory of light over darkness, knowledge over ignorance, and good over evil. It is a time when people come together, exchange greetings, and share joy with the lighting of oil lamps (diyas), colorful decorations, feasting, and the burning of fireworks.
Brief History Connected with the Festival
Diwali’s historical roots are deep and diverse. Diwali has various legends associated with its celebration:
1. Return of Lord Rama : One of the most popular stories linked with Diwali is the return of Lord Rama, along with his wife Sita and brother Lakshmana, to their kingdom Ayodhya after, 14 years of exile, defeating the demon king Ravana. The people of Ayodhya illuminated their path and the entire city with lamps to welcome their beloved prince and celebrate his return and the victory of good over evil.
2. Goddess Lakshmi’s Worship: Diwali also marks the worship of Goddess Lakshmi,the goddess of wealth and prosperity. It is believed that on the night of Diwali, Goddess Lakshmi visits homes that are well-lit and clean and bestows wealth and prosperity upon those who welcome her with clean, brightly lit homes.
3. Religious Significance : For Jains, it marks Lord Mahavira attaining nirvana, while Sikhs celebrate it as Bandi Chhor Divas, signifying the release of Guru Hargobind Ji and several Hindu kings from imprisonment.
4. The Triumph of Lord Krishna: For some, Diwali celebrates the victory of Lord Krishna over the demon Narakasura, signifying the triumph of good over evil.
The story of Satyabhama and Narakasura is an interesting mythological tale connected with Diwali. According to Hindu mythology, Narakasura was a powerful demon king who ruled the kingdom of Pragjyotishpur. He had gained immense power through a boon but became arrogant and tyrannical, causing chaos and terrorizing both humans and celestial beings.
Narakasura’s power grew to such an extent that he even imprisoned 16,000 women, including Satyabhama, the wife of Lord Krishna. Unable to bear the atrocities committed by Narakasura, Satyabhama sought Lord Krishna’s help and urged him to defeat the demon.
Lord Krishna, accompanied by Satyabhama, went to battle against Narakasura. The battle between Lord Krishna and the demon king raged fiercely. Narakasura was a formidable adversary, and the fight lasted for a prolonged period. Eventually, Lord Krishna emerged victorious, slaying Narakasura and freeing all the captives, including Satyabhama.
The defeat of Narakasura brought an end to his reign of terror, symbolizing the victory of good over evil. It is believed that this event occurred on the day before Diwali. The people rejoiced in the triumph of Lord Krishna and celebrated his victory by lighting lamps, bursting fireworks, and spreading joy and happiness throughout the kingdom.
Hence, the day when Narakasura was defeated by Lord Krishna is commemorated as Naraka Chaturdashi or Choti Diwali, which is observed on the fourteenth day of the dark fortnight in the Hindu month of Ashwin. It precedes the main day of Diwali and signifies the triumph of righteousness and the eradication of evil forces, contributing to the overall celebration of the Festival of Lights.
