Ramaswamy's Controversial Proposals: Raising Voting Age and Banning Gender-Affirming Care for Minors
TL;DR
Indian politician, Swamy Ramaswamy, has proposed raising the voting age from 18 to 25 in order to ensure that only "mature" people vote. Ramaswamy argues that young people are easily influenced by money and other inducements, and that raising the voting age would help to strengthen democracy. The proposal has sparked debate among politicians and the public, with some arguing that it would disenfranchise young people and others questioning its effectiveness in curbing corruption. The Election Commission has not yet commented on the proposal.
