Answers
Multi-party system has several parties competing in the elections and more than two parties have a chance to get a majority. These parties can win either on their own or by making alliances. The party system ideally should reflect country's society and history. In India, a multi-party system is the most ideal because of the diversity. India adopted a multi-party system because:
