Official Opposition (India)

Official Opposition is a term used in Parliament of India and State Legislatures to designate the political party which has secured the second largest number of seats in either upper or lower houses. In order to get formal recognition in either upper or lower houses, the concerned party must have at least 10% of the total strength of the house.[1] A single party has to meet the 10% seat criterion, not an alliance. Many of the Indian state legislatures also follows this 10% rule while the rest of them prefer single largest opposition party according to the rules of their respective houses.

Role Edit :-

The Opposition’s main role is to question the government of the day and hold them accountable to the public.This also helps to fix the mistakes of the Ruling Party. The Opposition is equally responsible in upholding the best interests of the people of the country. They have to ensure that the Government does not take any steps, which might have negative effects on the people of the country.

The role of the opposition in legislature is basically to check the excesses of the ruling or dominant party, and not to be totally antagonistic. There are actions of the ruling party which may be beneficial to the masses and opposition is expected to support such steps.

In legislature, Opposition Party has a major role, which is:

  • (1) Constructive criticism of government.

  • (2) Putting restriction of arbitrariness of ruling party.

  • (3) Safeguarding liberty and right of people.

  • (4) Preparation to form government.

  • (5) Expression of public opinion.

OR

An Opposition Party refers to a position in the Indian parliament (both Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha). The political party that secures the second largest number of seats in the general elections in the upper or lower houses will be designated as the position party.

It is also responsible for challenging the policies of the government. It must work to produce different policies wherever they are appropriate.

The opposition party in India provides a practical criticism of the ruling party’s moves and decisions. During important appointments, the opposition parties are consulted by the ruling party. It is very important that the opposition has a suitable leader who can ably represent the interests of the non-dominant parties in the Lok Sabha.

Hence it is important that the opposition is given due importance and a role in the country’s governance so that the health of the democracy is safeguarded.
