how upsetting it must be,
if you have 9 family members, and only receive 5 votes! Neetu Shutteran Wala, a relatively unknown politician who ran
as independent in the city of Jalandhar, had a meteoric rise to meme status, in
an interview with a local reporter, Shutteran Wala broke down in tears as
he revealed that despite having nine family members, he had only received five
votes, asked if that meant that not even his family voted for him, the emotional
politician said that he doesn’t blame his relatives, but election fraud.
as it turns out, his family had voted for him (probably) as
the final tally of the votes revealed that Neetu Shutteran Wala got a
whopping 856 votes, which is not that bad for an independent, let alone one
who, according to according to India’s election commission website,
is illiterate, India Today reports that the overzealous reporter
interviewed Shutteran Wala while the votes were still being counted, so
there is a possibility that at the time he only had five votes, the man’s family felt obligated to issue a public
statement confirming their support: “He has complete support from the family
and everyone, including our uncles and the extended family, has voted for
him,” Shutteran Wala’s brother told Menxp, wait a second, illiterate and cries? he seems a
bit over qualified for a job as a UK prime minister!
