Question

why did India opt for democratic set up?In your opinion how far have we succeeded in this respect?

Answer 1

Hi, here is your answer

India was made up of different groups and for these groups to coexist peacefully, India became a sovereign nation guided by the laws of the land.

The fact that it opted for the democratic set up was to ensure that each community's needs were met.

Answer 2

India opted for democracy to initiate the process of election, choosing its leaders through people’s mandate and augment the citizen’s right to information.

However, in India, democracy is paralysed and derailed. People vote to elect leaders who eventually become corrupt, brazen and arrogant.

Corruption is breeding on the bedrock of taxpayer’s money.

Communalism has spread out its ugly fangs leading to terrorism and communal disharmony.
