Following are the functions of political parties in a democracy:
1.Political parties contest elections:
Political parties in most of the democracy is contest elections by putting up the candidates in the political Arena. They select their candidates in one way or the other but in our country central leadership select them on one basis or the other.
2. Put forward policies and programmes:
Political parties make some policies and programmes for the Welfare of the people and voters choose those parties whose policies they like the most. In a democracy people have different opinions but they are grouped together to provide one direction in which policies could be formulated by the government.
3. Making laws: political parties who are in power make laws for the country. Actually laws are made by the legislature but the party which is in power get direction on that issue from Central leadership to make any particular law.

The two challenges political party faces are:
1.Lack of internal democracy within parties:
It is right that democracy goes on with the help of political parties but there is a lack of internal democracy within the parties. It means that the power within the party is generally concentrated in the hands of one or two leaders. Even they do not conduct regular elections of office bearers and do not keep membership registers. Ordinary members are unable to get any information of inside of the party and members are generally dissatisfied with Central leadership. It is very difficult for ordinary members to convey their views to Central leadership or any particular issue. They have to accept the decisions taken by the central leaders. So there is a lack of internal democracy was in the parties.
2. Increasing role of Money and muscle power in political parties:
These days the role of money and muscle power has increased to a great extent. This power can be seen especially at the time of elections. Parties these days try to nominate that person and its candidate who is either rich or has sufficient power behind him. Candidates are spending Crores of rupees to get a ticket from the party and then again are spending Crores to win the elections. Not only this but these days criminals are entering the arena politics and criminalisation of politics is going on. Political leaders befriend criminals or who have the muscle power which can be used at the time of elections. In this way the role of money and muscle power in politics is increasing
