Father wants to rule Inida with 23 seats, son wants rule Karnataka with less than 40 seats, another wants to rule India with PM, President and Governer in his/her control. Its unfair that a powerful and effective democracy is controlled by selfcentered politicians. Its really a bad luck...

solution to this is to bring in a two-party system and do away with all these drama...but the parties dont have guts to bring this into force...and thats the irony of this great country too...

It is not that the parties don't know this. They want this. Every time try their luck. If some one gets majority, they are the luckiest. If not try alternative courses. Join together to spoil the majority decission. Smallest party will rule by manipulation. That is politics. Kick these idiots onec for by bringing Military rule at least for next 10 years. \ Amend the Constitution so as to prohiblit the small petty parties to rule buy hook or crook. Allow only educated people to become representatives. Eliminate criminals from politics.

Democracy has also been a much abused word like 'Secularisnm' and 'Social Justice' in India. What we see is only a farce in the name of democracy. Democracy is all about opinion and empowerment of majority. But ironically for the past few years only minority bunch of people are ruling India or deciding the fate of this country. Even a father-son combine can decide the destiny of a stete!. What a sad state of 'Demo-Crazy'..

It is bitter to watch all these comedy politics. Atlease our politicins are with enough humour sense that they try to hide the public requirements. very very good. It is like small kids playing with dolls that i will not give.

Mj : I agree with you. But the jokers are playing with the public money - another 1000 crore or so for a fresh election and no major decisions or development programmes... Ultimately the state and the country suffers... Sad...

Thanks,Rajesh! I am really moved! This is the first time in all my posts that someone has agreed to join me for a revolution. Ofcourse, I am a very law abiding, sensible, social citizen of India and not a terrorist or a naxalite. I want this country to prosper. But am at a loss where to begin. Guess it needs like minded people such as U and me to start it somewhere and make it happen..lets see if any one else responds..

Democracy has become stale in India. We need a much more strong system with these politicians out of the reckoning.A system something like emrgency period that rules and regulations are above all.Try this and see the improvement. We will be a super power soon.

What will Western countries think of India, if there is no democracy in one of the most advanced State of India?
