Answer:

Indian democracy is a democracy while Chinese communism is not communism !

India is the largest democracy in the world. There are over 800 registered political parties in India catering to a wide range of political, social and economic ideologies. India also has the largest electorate in the world.

India’s vast democracy at times acts as a hinderance to the decision making process by making it tedious and the leaders who are elected and not the best of the crop. Dynastic politics, casteist politics etc are not foreign to the Indian democracy.

China on the other hand has a single party system which is loosely based on communism. China’s economy however is capitalistic. It's unfair to call China a communist State anymore ( I have recently written an answer about this ).

Communist Party of China is the de facto authority of the State. It is not a democracy and leaders often win the internal electoral votes without a single vote against them. This system allows faster decision making as well as a unified and streamlined vision for the country. The tradeoff of course is the lack of several rights which are fundamental in nature such as freedom of speech, freedom to express dissent against the government etc.

China’s lack of democracy has allowed it to expand at an unprecedented rate. Today, China is the second most powerful country after the United States of America. The lack of political conflict has allowed China to practice expansionism.

India is bogged down by internal political strife. The upside however is that every citizen has the power to vote. Individual rights of humans in India is superior to that of China. If the quality of our politicians improves, internal strife would be productive and we'd be on the way to actual progress.

  • Although China was not a very industrialized country before the economic reforms, there were parts of China (e.g., Manchuria) that have had solid industry bases for some time. On the other hand I am not aware of much industry in India at the time of independence, i.e. China started a step ahead compared to India. Moreover, India's strategy was to focus on the tertiary sector, i.e. services; however, India doesn't have a large secondary sector yet. A big manufacturing sector is more inducive to eliminating poverty than the a big tertiary sector - naturally, it's much easier for unskilled workers to find jobs in factories than in service.

  • Social structures. China had eradicated much of the old social structures (the literati, the landlords, etc.) through two revolutions. On the other hand there had never been a social revolution in India; class structures - such as the caste system - have not fundamentally changed. A semi-feudal social structure does not induce the development of capitalism or the elimination of poverty.
