write a descriptive paragraph in points of Topic Money and Muscle power are setting dangerous friend in the budding democracies
Answers
Explanation:
During my five and half years in the Election Commission of India (ECI), I witnessed the growth of “money power” as a hydra-headed monster. Equally distressing is what I could call “muscle power”. In both the 15th as well as the present Lok Sabha, almost 30% of the members have one or more criminal case registered against them.
While I was certainly privileged to have conducted the democratic world’s largest election in 2009, I was also well placed to see the many fault lines that were beginning to fracture our democracy. Many of these negative forces have already weakened the country’s democratic structure so much that I sometimes wonder whether we can ever hope to realise the aspirations of our freedom fighters, who sacrificed so much to gain independence from colonial rule. Sadly, foreign domination has been replaced in some measure by our home grown oligarchy that possesses both “money power” and “muscle power”. This has swept away everything that Gandhiji stood for when he said, “I understand democracy as something that gives the weak the same chance as the strong.”
