Question

How can you say federalism enhanses democracy in india

Answer 1

1952, when India elected its first parliament, the election commissioner Sukumar Sen called it "the biggest experiment in democracy in human history". His judgment holds true today: the scale of the endeavour is remarkable and the enthusiasm of the population to elect their representatives is exemplary – particularly since the gains to the vast majority seem minimal. Indians continue to vote in high numbers because of pride in having secured the ballot through the freedom movement, the immense social pressure often exercised through caste and community channels, and the way in which resources are distributed by the electoral victor.
