India has its own legacy of strikes, bandhs and rallies. Strikes generally refer to a work stoppage undertaken in support of a bargaining position or in protest of some aspect of a previous agreement or proposed agreement. India is the largest democracy in the world and Article 19
(1) A guarantees freedom of speech and expression to every citizen. Also, it is a democracy which is based on multi-party political system. Different political parties mean different ideologies, plans, programs and thoughts. Democracy presupposes full freedom of expression to all these parties. A political party can put its ideologies, plans etc. by organizing meetings, processions, demonstrations, strikes etc. These are very effective tools to keep the government and administration on its toes and keep moving in the right direction.
