In my opinion definitely the uneducated should be deprived from voting. The reason that he doesn't thing above square meal. In the same way the elected government should put in free education for at least for a period of 15 years spending more than 10% of GDP on education. If this continues the next generation will be matured enough to cast the vote and elect the right government. Otherwise people will cast vote for few hundred rupees or any gifts.

We should not blame democracy because after independence it gives us various fundamentals right. We should ask yourself that how much serious we are about rights and how many of us know about our fundamentals rights. India Is our home and we are the family members. If a home is not well decorated then. Should we leave that home No? Because if we are living then it's our responsibility to decorate it in a beautiful manner. Instead of blaming it.

Hello friends.

According to me democracy is not hampering our progress. For democracy become our PM & a lead became president of our nation. We are not getting 100 % success, not for the democracy but for the education, more than 50% people are illiterate but in case of western countries, maximum people are literate, so they are developed. Now a days literacy ratio is increasing, we must get a good system and success in near future.

Neither democracy nor dictatorship can hamper a country from progress if there is a reliable and faithful leader and people too support and understand their responsibility towards the country. People take democracy in very wrong way they give bribe, they don't give income tax, they don't pay bills and all blame goes to the govt. So I think there must be a strong hold on people like in dictatorship with hard and fast rules.

Well, I think somehow democracy is ruining our system. I am not saying that it's totally wrong but nowadays the people who are connected with a party use party's name to do illegal things. Whether it is in the field of education or in the field of illegal works. And day by day these things are increasing. So as a democratic country, the government should take care of these things 1st. Then only we can support democracy.

Not exactly but in certain way this hampering the progress. People choose their leaders in this country on their on will whether they are eligible or not and this is the problem in progress. Most of leaders are corrupt and ineligible they use the national treasures, incomes, resources for benefit of them only. That's how they are hampering the progress directly and indirectly democracy is hampering for some extent.

No, democracy is not hamper the India progress. In fact it give a chance to every person to choose their representative. If they are satisfied with the elected candidate they preferred them else they also eliminate. All this privilege exist due to democracy, only their is requirement that every person must provide the appropriate education, so that they choose the right candidate by giving their valuable vote.

Yes, democracy is hampering progress not because of the word democracy but because some people are taking undue advantage of the name democracy, as nepotism is being into force, roads, footpaths drains cannot be maintained and all are being sold to the hackers just for the party people to make money, and causing undue trouble to the common people when they are paying tax for the maintaining their city/state.

I think that why don't dictatorship and democracy be combined. The army and government should think the best ideas for this combination. I just got the idea but don't know how it can be possible. See the condition of India, I don't like to say but it is like a piece of thrash where all citizens are selfish. There is no meaning of unity instead army should burn out all the evils and use some Hitler tactics.

Mainly democracy is the form of government where the people of the country has the main power but in a country like India this power is hampered by the incapable rulers. Still free and fair elections are a dream of us. Overall I would say that when hazards like violence, corruptions could be over rooted from the recent definition of democracy then only a country could be called an actual democratic one.
