WATCH: Weren’t planning to vote in the Indian elections? This will change your mind

India is hosting the world’s biggest democratic elections this year, with nearly 100 million newly eligible voters since the last election and about 814.5 million voters in total.

India is also filled with a lot of people who are unhappy with the state of affairs in their country. With headlines of rape, corruption and poverty making the headlines of newspapers on a daily basis, it’s easy to understand why Indians are growing increasingly frustrated with those who have been elected to run our country. What’s also extremely unfortunate is the fact that many of these same people are so frustrated that they no longer think it will make a difference if they participate in India’s election process.

The man in this video has an important message for all those who have reached their limits with the government of India. For anyone who wasn’t planning on voting in these elections, make sure you carefully listen – or read – what he has to say.
