examine the problems of representative democracy according to J.P.narayan in 1200 words
Answers
Answer:
Partyless democracy is a democracy devoid of political parties and the traditional parliamentary and presidential forms of government popular across the world. The idea was first ushered by M.N Roy, furthered by Mahatma Gandhi and put to action and solidified by Jayaprakash Narayan, by the infamous JP movement in Bihar. JP movement was started by JP against corruption and misrule.
Indian constitution didn’t provide the making for political parties, it was only through section 29 of RPA 1951, the word political parties was first made palpable. Indian constituent assembly was well aware of the ruckus of political parties in the west but it was the most definite solution for the representation of the people’s ambitions. Gandhi wanted the idea of village republics. The same idea was furthered by JP Narayan.
But it is not possible in present context, JP, himself relied on political parties for mass mobilisation during the Bihar movement in 1974–76. India, instead, need democratic deepening with effective decentralisation of power. Even after 73rd and 74th amendment, the local elections are full of patronage and corruption, which will only be rectified only when the village is the lowest unit of the decentralised system. It would involve the soul of participatory democracy. The village would control the natural resources, would enjoy maximum freedom and will be self sufficient. Then only the dream of partyless democracy can be imbued.
