subject: Giving Voice To The Nation With Online Voting And Servey [print this page] eChunav is a new venture that provides a public platform to the people of India to give voice to their concerns, opinions and views on all matters pertaining to the country and its society. By allowing people to ask questions and answer those of others, the website functions like an unofficial survey of various currents of thought that are prevalent in the country.
The unique polls that are initiated by its different nationwide member base are one of the main tools of the website. The polls cover a large variety of topics and are not only limited to the polity of the country. Social, economic, sports related, technological amongst many other topics, are broached frequently as themes for questions asked to the people of the country.
These questions once created are put up for online voting on the website and people respond to them by picking their option of choice as an answer to the question. As multiple people answer the question, the general trend of the publics opinion becomes apparent. The website even allows people to better understand the opinion of the public by making detailed demographics of all answers available to the users.
The online voting on the questions makes up only one part of the surveys and polls that can be conducted on the website. This is but an objective question answer scheme, the other method is to initiate a proper discussion with all other members of the public platform on an equally varying number of topics.
This is an area which allows people to give the logic behind their thinking. This functions as a massive forum where numerous discussions take place simultaneously. With members participating in the discussions and the wide social array of the people involved, it helps people to understand what the factors responsible for forming the opinion of the people at large are.
In a way, this is also a form of survey that all members can initiate and simultaneously be a part of. Thus the website is not only a place where one is just simply online voting on matters, but also a place where one can give justification for ones opinions. In the process, likeminded people can come together and perhaps become an agent of change.
More than anything else, eChunav strives to guarantee a space characterized by freedom; where people can come and state their opinions in an uninhibited manner. This freedom of speech or opinion forms the cornerstone of any stable democracy. This website hopes to imbue this attitude across the country by constantly expanding its member base.
All one has to do to become a member is visit the website and sign up! The procedure is very small and one only needs to fill in very few details and then it is done. One can begin answering and posing questions right from the start and so can one take part in the various discussions taking place on the website. As an added incentive, the website also lists its most active users in a list with the most active having the highest ranking!
