Explanation:

India adopted this system because for elections to Lok Sabha and state legislative assembly India has adopted the FPTP system

The reasons for success of FPTP include :

1. Simplicity and Accountability: The PR system of elections is quite complicated. It can work in small countries but it is unsuitable for a sub- continental country like India. For common voters ,the FPTP system is easy to understand and operate. Voters have to simply choose a candidate or a party while voting. Voters may give importance to either the party or the candidate or strike a balance between both. In the PR system, voters vote for parties and representatives are chosen as on the basis of party list. As a result no one is real representative. In FPTP , the voters know and can approach the representative of their constituency and can also hold them accountable.
2. Stable Government: The framers of Indian constitution felt that PR system may not provide stable Government in the legislature and PR system may not produce clear majority since seats are allotted in legislature on the basis of vote share. The FPTP system allows largest party or coalition to form a government with a majority, more than PR system of sharing votes may give. The FPTP system therefore provides stability to parliamentary government .
3. Wide representation: FPTP system encourages representatives of different communities to win election in a locality. The PR system would lead each community to form a nationwide party in India since the nation is full of diverse groups.
