Scenario:
You are a Prime Minister of a Government that gets formed after general elections; X Party (your party) wins, and Y party loses.
Your opposition party files complaints against rigging and reaches out to Election Commission & Supreme Court and as to prove the point asks to test the case of just 4 National Assembly seats as sample to have litmus test of fairness of the process through which you were elected as Prime Minister.
In all 4 scenarios (100% Positive Sample) and after 2 and half to 3 out of 5 year term, the Election Commission or Supreme Court detects massive rigging and errors and orders re-election on 100% of seats with disputed results.
As Prime Minister; what will be your take on it?
Please select only one of the following options:
1 - Identify who committed this fraud, penalize them, put checks and controls in place in the system, resign as PM / announce fresh elections to save your credibility and trust of the public in the system.
2 - Take stay order from courts and wait for next term and do not make any changes to the system that brought you to power.
3 - Announce re-election under the same system that trigged the earlier elections and use; voter intimidation, bribery, and ballot fraud (this time with Government Machinery) and win all those 4 seats in question and say to opposition “Hun Araam Aiey?” Tell your son/daughter to visit the country you are ruling in vacations and have similar type of fun job like you.
As a person, who will leave legacy for your children and also for thed emocratic process what choice will you make?
