We call ourselves the largest democracy, whereas we are not even a democratic setup to start with. Democracy is a system for the people, by the people, of the people. Here we are all working for the bureaucrats and politicians, instead of the other way round. We are afraid of them and bow to them. We have to stoop 2 feet low when visiting a government office. This is our democracy. Indian political parties are controlled by a high command and coterie, which makes even the political parties undemocratic. Parties which did not win major votes are able to form a government with the help of loosely held minority parties and take care of their vested interest. It is high time citizens start taking things in their own hands and clean up the mess created by the politician and bureaucrats and if possible clean up the politician and bureaucrats.
