Unacceptably
enough French revolution is the mother of democracy and not the much
hyped about Magna Charta......so, whatever democracy we see in the
western world is born of it. by the time the indian freedom struggle
started, except that led by maharajas in 1857 and the individual
martyrs, the western world and hence the Britain has already adopted
democratic principles and the struggle led by these principles was
tolerable...so it kept on growing and ultimately resulted in
independence of india. all the leaders of the freedom stuggle were
britain-educated which was an immense asset to the struggle. Most
important is that, only because this manner of struggle succeeded...
india could emerge as largest democracy in the world and we indians are
lucky enough to be part of the modern civilised world. i think all
credit goes to french revolution and even the western world today can
re-visit french revolution to eradicate faults in the present system (
like sub-primes) to make it more democratic and less capitalism-oriented
autocratic.
