Electoral Politics: Need For Reforms
Indian Electoral System We elect our Member of Parliaments and Members of Legislative Assembly every five years. If the leaders elected are good, honest and are responsible then the country would prosper, else the country will be doomed. Elections play a major role in our lives. Our electoral system has both advantages and shortcomings. A true democracy can only function if the elections are held in a free and fair manner. India is the largest democracy but that does not prove that India is true democracy. Let us discuss some of the shortcomings of the Indian Electoral System. Due to a corrupt electoral system, many educated and intelligent voters don't even go for voting because they think that even if they will vote an undeserving politician will get elected. But this thinking is also wrong because many times responsible people are also elected but sometimes undeserving people also get elected.
