Democracy is Hampering India's Progress

According to me to some extent democracy is hampering india's progress because if somebody tried to do their work sincerely they will be overthrown very soon. First this should be stopped. Noting is impossible so if we all together raise our voice against this we could stop all those evil practices. And I am not at all blaming democracy because if we don't have democracy do you think that we will now have the right to post these things, express our ideas freely. So 4 a country's development democracy is very much important and we all are lucky because we have a democracy and if we try we can overthrow the evils from our society and then surely India will progress.

Hello, everyone!

According to me, it is not democracy that should be blamed for hampering the progress of India but it is actually Indian system that should be blamed. And all the activities like :-.

- The cases which should have to take 5 days are taking 5 months and even more.

- The Indian police that is accusing guilty in return for some money.

- The parties shouting in parliament for no reason. Etc.

Are not at all part of Indian democracy instead, they are part of our system. Which should be blamed and not our democracy. And as we know it is 68 years of democracy in India and even largest democracy in the world we all should respect that.

Thank you.

I think democracy is good but its used in India is very bad, because all people of India don't understand the power of democracy. In India most of people don't understand the use of single vote. All people are want to do only for self, They don't think about society, they don't want to do something about country.

The main reason is that most of the people in rural area are uneducated and these are waste his vote only for some money, and due to that people, at the current time all politician are corrupted and ready for scams.

Hence according to me democracy is not hampering, We are responsible for hamper the development of our country.

Thank You.

I think democracy is not the problem for our country at all. In my opinion the problem is the process of election system where each and every people has the right to vote. You may think that it is not a problem. But the fact is the country like India where most of the voters are not properly educated and are corrupted in their activities, there should be some eligibility criteria for having right to vote. Because those corrupted and illiterate people will naturally vote to the politician of their own nature. So what is happening is that wrong candidates are being continuously elected by the majority of those corrupted and illiterate people.

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".

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.

The idea that few hundreds of people can represent the interests of hundred crore people is a naive imagination.

If you can't trust people governing themselves, how can you trust them giving power to some other person who pays no price for being wrong? Power is a primitive idea of well-being. Good politician or a bad politician, power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Good govt or bad govt, govt makes people's lives difficult to live.

The governance of modern and evolved society is carried out by the market economy and selfish, profit-motive and innovative entrepreneurs. Not by primitive ideas like political power.

Yes, according to my view democracy is hampering the progress of the country. Government as well all citizen are responsible for the development of their country. In the case of India, every citizen who is 18 years old has a right to vote. There is vast strength of illiterate people who cast their vote for religious, cast influence and used to go in a wrong decision by either their own will or by regional political threat. The government is unable to get them full welfare as mediator are everywhere to grab the money. Finally until unless we choose the right government we want to be able to contribute to the development of India.

Dear All,

I am a citizen of India, I should love my country & Democracy system. But one of the Major, Fault in our Democracy, except India other country people are getting job or duties only for merit basis but in India, people are getting job, cast bases, so funny, A 78% obtained marks holder can't get job, but 38% marks holder got the job easily because He/She belongs SC Caste.

Now 70 Years Independent Day have finished still they are backward. So should be changed. Otherwise, our country will not be developed. Like the USA, UAE, Canada, UK, People are getting the job, Merit basis, so these type of country develop.

Indians are and were a bunch of uneducated lot and if they got any education it was sub standard. They have been superstitious and cast ridden since ages, now over populated with all nonsense beliefs, surely democracy cannot function in its true sense in such a society and that's what we see today corruption and mismanagement, rich are exploiting the poor and getting corrupted ideas to keep them poor. Religion is also a hamper as it gives strange ideas to increase population. Strangely there's no party to speak on population control as it affects their vote bank hence we will see people voting and problems escalating.
