In the name of alliance so many unconstitutional things are going on in our country.
As this suits every party at sometime or other nobody is really interested to stop this.
BJP was voted by the people and emerged as the single largest party, But by the oppurtunistic alliance of JD(S) and Cong it was not allowed to come to power. Then they called BJP as a communal party,,,, but BJP is a party recognised by the election commission and the constitution to exist and contest elections. Not only that, it is a democratic set up and the very people of Karnataka have voted for BJP to be the single largest party. But BJP was not allowed to form a Govt and two parties with less number of MLAs than BJP formed the Govt and made the single largest party to sit outside as opposition. Is it not unconstitutional and illogical?
Is it not fooling the voters and against democratic principles?
There is no proof for any party to be truely secular. Because all of them have aligned with BJP when it suited them and called it a communal party when not required.For this there in enogh proof. Even VP Singh, Mulayam , Mayavati or Karunanidhi, all had an alliance whenever they required BJP.Now it is Deve Gowda and his son.
Now the question is kumarasamy has enjoyed chief ministership with the support BJP by giving some promise and casting aspersions on BJP now is immoral, against human qualities.
It is just that and otherwise no party can function on pure ethics now a days.

So we should be happy that our country is run by a joint family otherwise known as the Congress Party!

I am not in favor of POWER CONSOLIDATION within one family. It is not in the interest of our nation. Are we not capable of producing good leaders from a population of over 1 Billion. If that is the case, we will cease to exit as a nation.

This question should be addressed to Congressmen starting with Dr Manmohan Singh. Their sole repository of knowledge is Mdm Sonia Gandhi followed by Mr Rahul Gandhi and perhaps by Ms Priyanka (?).

History will repeat, dont worry.
Discrimination on the basis of language, region, sex, caste, religion, etc will only lead to problems. Wait until Mysore asks for a separate state sometime in the future.
The parliamentary form of democracy is NOT working for us. Our consitution and our governance is a relection of the British system. It works in Britain because it is a small country. India is 10 times bigger and 20 times more populous.
We need a presidential form of democracy like in the US. It is working well given the size of the country.

You have a point! The root problem is Nehru. He opposed 2 party system because he was scared of opposition getting stronger and today we are bearing the fruits of his decision.

Can you explain how Nehru opposed the two-party system? We cannot blame every problem on Nehru.
RE:FUNDAMENTAL CHANGE...
by TJ on Oct 06, 2007 07:00 PM Permalink
Ofcourse, we have to blame Nehru for every problem we are facing today. He divided the country for becoming PM - that too for becoming first PM. Today we are facing the problem with Pakistan. He was one who was making the rules and regulations for India - as per his desires. Inspite Ambedkar mentioning about the problems with multi party system Nehru insisted on that.

I mean Nehru was an atheist (that started Hindu hatred) and socialist (destroyed economy), nepotism (brought in family rule).
RE:FUNDAMENTAL CHANGE...

On these points I can agree, but I don't think he had the power or means to reject two-party rule. There is no evidence to support the view that he could have done so.
RE:FUNDAMENTAL CHANGE...

Then who came up with the multi-party rule? Did it evolve on its own? Somebody has done it and who is it? It is Nehru as he was putting is finger in every rules and regulations getting formed.

Yes, you can. Nehru is the root cause of many ills this country is facing. Atheism, Socialism, Nepotism etc. Each of this had profound impact on India if you look deeply.

Dear Mahesh if you say for all root cause because of Nehru means then you have to agree for the deviding policy releigious problems were came in our nation only because of BJP, RSS, VHP. you agree?

I'll tell you why that is not the case. The day Shah Bano case was overturned by a constitutional amendment, the modern day communal politics started. The day minorities reject politicians that follow minority appeasement for votes, communal politics will disappear.

Just by communicating with someone in hindi, if your identity goes off, you need to mature more. Again going by history languages because, the languages donot progress with science, donot generate interest by literature or movies, etc. It will be a good research to check why english beat french, language.

What nonsense are you talking man? India has 22 national languages. Hindi and English are official languages of the centre. The Hole Indian can bend over and accept to be sh*gged by Hindi, but I never!

You may not agree with Bush (Neither do I), but remember, a majority of the American People supported this war (Over 70%).
Americans are opposing it now, not because they oppose the war, but because they do not like losing a war.
These are NOT Anti-war protests. They just do not want to lose. If you are ant-war, you must oppose the war before it starts.

Another altrenative is to have a two stage elections - The top two winners of the first round will face a second election like 'finals'. Splitting of votes in the first round will be compensated by consolidation and better concensus will evolve. Minor parties and independents cannot form pressure groups.
