Answer:

There could be a number of reasons ranging from interest, thirst for fame, understanding political system, building stronger financial resources or maybe even for the betterment of the nation.

Explanation:

But most importantly, it's a race of seeking more power and authority. It is more convenient for a politician or bureaucrat to play the blame game instead of the fair game when they’re a higher authority figure. They always want to reach the upper level, possible. Sooner or later this becomes a competition and they use political parties as a tactic and motives as propoganda. They're priorities are to seek as much benefit as possible and this comes through gain of political power.

Different trends of Political Participation in India

Explanation:

1)  In a democratic country like India, elections play an important role and reflect people and political participation, as the people choose their ruling representatives from a choice of different political parties

2)  To check the quality of election process, it is essential to analyse the effective participation of people in it. For instance, if the election procedure is not fair, people would never participate and exercise their vote and hence, boycott and prevent participation in elections

3)  People’s participation in elections is usually measured by voter turnout figures. If the turnout percentage is high, it is understood that eligible voters have cast their votes in elections.

4)  Thus, elections are all about political competition. This competition takes various forms. The most positive form is competition among political parties. At the constituency level, it takes the form of competition among several candidates and if there is no competition elections will become pointless.

5)  Political leaders all over the world are motivated by the desire to advance their political careers. They wish to serve the interests and wishes of people. Electoral competition provides incentives to political parties and leaders.

6)  These leaders raise issues that people want as they feel that their popularity and chances to win next elections increase and the vice versa
