Donations vs Nomination Business

[[ProReformsGroup]]

Donations, by definition:

1. The act of giving or bestowing; a grant.
2. That which is given as a present; that which is transferred to
another gratuitously; a gift.
3. (Legal definition) The act or contract by which a person
voluntarily transfers the title to a thing of which he is the owner,
from himself to another, without any consideration, as a free gift. --
Bouvier.

The basic connotation of the word donation is giving without receiving
any consideration in return.

Today, our political leaders are confusing donations with their
business of selling nominations. Receiving Taka 5 crores in return for
a nomination is surely not donation. It is selling nominations, pure
and simple.

Furtnermore, I would like to know where are these so called donations
kept. Are they kept in an account in the name of the party, or are
they kept in the personal accounts of the leaders and spent as they
wish.
