Politics is very important to have a prosperous country and harmonious life for the citizens. It is something that can change people’s minds and lives. There are people who try to develop our country by getting engaged with politics. Some people only think and care about three things: money, power, and post. When they are a candidate they make many promises. There are many things that they say as they talk about developments and the well-being of the people. They talk about eradicating poverty and end discrimination and suffering. But soon after they become a leader by getting votes in elections, they forget about the promises that they made . They forget about the development of the country. They forget what they had said to the citizens. After the power comes in their hands they do not remember what their duties and responsibilities are. They get engaged in corruption as we know how corrupt our system is. This is because of our mistakes too, because we fall for their fake promises time and again and give them the power they don’t really deserve. We know they wouldn’t work for the well-being of the citizens but still give them our precious vote just to make those corrupt leaders more powerful that would make them richer and make our country poorer. In my opinion, new candidates should be given a chance and allow to have a position so that we may see differences if they can make it. Voting the same old corrupt candidates means making the same mistake again and again.
