How about we don’t make voting compulsory.

Let the people decide whether they want to vote or not.
Whatever government is chosen by those who voted shall be the government of the day.

Citizens will be told to do their civic duty and if they choose not to vote they have no say in the new governments period of administration. Or in the layman’s term - zip it.

Then only it will be a true democracy. Forcing people to vote is not very democratic.

Anyway, I know so many people who told me that they invalidated their vote by putting blank papers into the box. This was just to avoid the fine. And in fact they never did vote.
