Since conducting direct elections are a massive exercise, ensuring free and fair elections at all the polling booths may not be possible. There are some instances of booth capturing, violence, intimidation of election officials etc. which undermines the credentials of the election process.

Role of money power in direct elections cannot be negated. There are instances of some political candidates influencing the voters through payments in the form of cash, goods, or services. Poor voters expect bribes from political candidates during election time. This in turn leads to wide scale corruption and malpractices. It is a well known fact that money power has the potential to swing at least some elections. These practices are a regular feature of elections in South India especially in the states of Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh.

Election campaigns sometimes results in violence, tension, law and order problems and affects the day to day life of people.
