Abstract:

The present article looks into the unrepresentative character of the existing first-past- the-posť (FPTP) system in India and suggests an alternative model so that our democracy can be made more representative and meaningful. The FPTP system of election results in the victory of a candidate with a minority (less than 50% of votes polled) of votes which enables the candidate who gets the most votes (need not be a majority of total votes polled) to win an election in a multi-cornered contest. This implies that only a minority of voters who have voted for the victorious candidate get any representation at all. Thus, this paper seeks to examine other alternatives that best suit the needs of our country.

Electoral system:

Electoral system can be described as the translation of votes casted by people in elections into seats won by parties and candidates. Different electoral systems yield different results and different forms of representation. The form of electoral system used in India for General Assembly Elections is First-past-the-post-system. In this system, each voter has a single vote. If a person in a constituency gets the highest number of votes, he/she wins. Here, the highest votes are in terms of “relative majority”, i.e., a person should score more than the best of opposition. Voting takes place in single member constituencies in India and on a categorical ballot. Categorical ballot is the one in which a person has to decide the candidate he prefers over all the other candidates.
