Hi!

Dear All.

Our Democracy is hampering & going to much more lose very soon, Except India, you never see any other country people are getting job caste bases Like USA, UK, Canada, UAE, people are getting job or duties merit basis, they are searching only who is capable? Who is perfect? Who is active? & those types of people are getting job or duties.

But Very sad for Indian Democracy system A perfect Candidate can't get any duties because he is belonging General Caste but he has obtained marks 78% whereas an SC Caste candidate can get job easily he got only 38% So it's a shame for Indian democracy system now 70th years Indian's independent day have already crossed. But still, Indian democracy can't adjust the backward people.

Democracy is rule by the people, for the people and of the people. India is the largest democratic country in the world.

In India, we are electing govt representatives every 5 years, and the govt formed will introduce many welfare schemes and projects like irrigation, electricity etc. ,

As we know for completion of these projects and for the effective implementation of the welfare schemes, the 5 years of ruling may not be sufficient and after 5 years again elections will come.

If suppose another party forms government then the completion of those projects which was initiated by the previous government Will may not happen faster. They try to leave their mark by introducing their own schemes and their own projects according to their party manifesto.

So, the money of people is been wasted in a big way and is indirectly hampering india's growth.

Democracy is not hampering the growth of India, its the people who are monitoring the democratic country, elected by people by using corruption as a weapon. They are not realizing their duty towards work, take fake oath to help people. Also misuse the power of money for purchasing of votes by distributing money and alcohol. A true leader is that who perform his duty sincerely.

Finally democracy is not hampering the growth of nation, we have to change the system acquires to run democratic nation.

Hi. This is Dhananjay. Today, I am going to speak about democracy.

As the question is whether democracy hampering our nation s progress or not. I would say No.

India is a country where duff religion people are staying together. They all have a different view towards the world. It's really a great achievement for India as compared to others.

But It's true. In a voting system, there are no. Of persons are there who don't have to potential to choose a leader may b there illiterate. That may lead to corruption.

But. Still, democracy system gives us a chance to correction. If the elected leader Is not that much effective. , then after five years, we can eradicate him by voting.

Last but not the least, democratic leaders power is within our constitution. So. As we have both the best democratic system and Indian constitution, No doubt. Our country will progress.

Thank you.

Yes, democracy is hampering India's progress because today's education systerm has changed towards greed, therefore we have forgotten the rule of- by the people- for the people -with the people, if we survey we'll find that a minister 's family member is often chosen as minister, today votes are being purchased by criminals, law is being misused by moneyed people, poor are becoming poorer, religious people are also becoming criminals, nowadays, the priests and nuns think themselves to be LORDS, Just like the Ministers think themselves and lives a life like a KING, when people of their country are dying of poverty they are least bothered.

As per my perception democracy is not at all hamper in the progress of country. We Indian are lucky to be a part of such great democratic country. As we all know democracy is only way which give us right to elect the right government in every five year that can run the country in well manner, right speak against wrongdoing by politician and also right get education.

We always blame to govt for everything instead of focusing on our responsibility towards country like not paying income tax, bill and giving bribe.

Only one thing can help country to achieve progress rapidly is education. Educate all the Indians properly so that they could aware about their duty for the country, towards democracy and select correct person to lead the nation ahead in suitable way.

So take democracy as boon for country and contribute to grow the nation further.

No its wrong to say that democracy is hampering the progress of Indian but the way people respond towards democracy is hampering the progress of India. Like people choose the leaders related to their caste, or by having some own their benefits. So mentality of such selfish like feeling is actually hampering the progress of India.

So the solution is to provide education, spreading awareness among people regarding voting. So that they will get to know the value of their vote. And the value of vote we can best learn from the corrupted leaders, that how they know the value of each vote.

Every coin has its two faces, democracy also has its two faces that misuse of everything results bad. Most of the politicians are corrupt, the police had shaken their hands with them. That is the reason that why democracy indirectly hampers the progress of our nation.

Government is not only responsible for pitiable condition of India, but also the citizens of the nation as because for their self they encourage corruption, elect wrong representative etc. The democracy on one face. Became like dictatorship, India will progress very much if all the citizens and politicians realize what is happening to country and "rebuilt what they destroy".

If you look at history, all developed countries become democracy after they have been developed or completely industrialized. There has been no single country in the world that a poor country become developed nation after they become democrat country when they are poor.

I think democracy is not hampering the India but its because the way we use our democracy. We should feel proud as India is a democratic nation. And it gives us various right to use it.

We only continue to blame our government system but we could not able to see the other side of the coin. All illegal matters bribe offered by corrupted people. And we are the only one and it's our sole responsibility to stop all these things.

Indian constitution gives us right to vote to choose the right people as an administrator. So we should respect our constitution.

Various policies offered by the government which helps the every citizen of India. But its need to be updating as per the current situation. Its should not take a week to solve the case where it gets solve in 5/6 days.

* GDP growth of India is the highest growth rate in the world.

* India stands on second as largest economy.

So we need to restructure the definition of democracy to use it wisely and not for hampering.
