In general ,incompetantance breeds incompetance . This is the prevailing scenario.

Besides , the type of Democratic model we have , with first pass the post criterion , such odd results as seen in the last Lok Sabha results are expected . Numbers matter . Hence there is a vested interest in continuing Cast System , secularist - Communal devide and so forth . A new formula MAP :
M(Muslim), A(Ambedkar ie Dalit) and P( Phule ie OBC)
along with anti brahminism has been successfully applied by Sharad Pawar in electoral politics in Maharashtra and same formula in slightly different form ( tuned to the local situation )is successfully applied by DMK , RJD ,CPM , SP, BSP

Many alternatives :(1) Change the Election System. Minimum 50 % of votes polled should be the criterion for winning elections.Repoll for first two to decide winner. ( 2) 50% proportional represent
