Question

what are the major challenges of political parties in function of democracy?
​

Answer 1

• Lack of internal democracy:This is caused by the concentration of power in the hands of a few leaders.

• Increased dependence on money and muscle power:This causes the party policies to be moulded by groups which supply these to the party.

• Failure to provide a meaningful choice to the voters:This is because of the decline in fundamental, ideological differences among parties in most parts of the world.

Answer 2

Following are the challenges faced by political parties:-

# lack of internal democracy:-

* parties do not keep membership register .

* they do not regularly hold organisational meetings.

* they do not conduct internal elections regularly.

# Dynastic succession :-

In many parties, the top positions are always controlled by members of one family. This is unfair to other members of that family.

# Money and muscle power :-

The parties are indulged in the use of money and muscle power for winning elections. This hampers the democracy from developing and lessons the importance of genuine leaders within the party.

# Meaningful choice of the voters:-

The parties have almost common ideologies ,

so there is lack of meaningful choices before the voters.
