Indian democracy is a sham and all bogus and crap. How does the author think that we leave the deal to the voter. Does the author know that 50% of India is illiterate and only 40% of population votes. It is anybody's guess what is the knowledge level of an Indian voter when we keep electing criminals and thugs. Indian democracy is a total failure. It is our chaltha hay attitude which has resulted in this mess. 1 billion people - what a waste of humanity.
