Whatever might be the issue, it will have positives as well as negatives. So we cannot solely put the whole blame on politicians. Maybe they are one of the reasons why we are still backward.

In support with the topic, I can say that money is the thing which makes political system worst. All the politicians just look for their status and hence this attitude leads to corruption by politicians.

In contradiction, people also play a major role i.e., in electing their leader. Before election politicians will be showering money on people and they believe that the help will be continued by them. But soon after that person get elected as a leader he stops caring about the poor. So people has to properly elect their leader.

Hey,

This is Manisha from Indore,

According to me we people can't blame a politician party for the backwardness because the political parties come through we people. We are selecting them so we are the people for the backwardness.

Their should be a proper management system for a politician parties too because we often see that an uneducated or not highly qualified person is a member of that party so this is the point to be noticed in our country.

And obviously the corruption causes the major negativity in India because backwardness is not always about an uneducated person but by the educated and greedy people too.

It would be very naive if we blame our political system for our backwardness as a country. Neither can we blame the political leaders. It is us the common people of India who is to blame for our lack of exposure globally because we are the ones who elect our leaders.

Our political system gives us the right to elect the leader of our choice and more often than not we don't choose them wisely. Our mind sways from the actual motive and gets tangled is aspects like caste, religion etc when we finally choose our leaders. We often get caught in their mind games and end up making mistakes.

Let's us also not forget we've also chosen some great leaders in the past and hopefully will do in the near future. It is our responsibility to choose our leader and if anyone is to blame for our backwardness, unfortunately it's we the people of India.

Political system is not only the single factor for the backwardness of our country, yes it is responsible in some fraction but other factors also matter like the illiteracy of our country people should know all the rights of their. But it is true that the major role is of our political system.

Is our political system reason for our economic downfall?

Obviously! YES. Our Indian constitution starts with a sentence "we the people of India" which is palpable that any good or bad must signifies us. Political system solely not responsible can be proven by the facts if we go through the election were we give precious votes to elect the person who not only govern us but country too.

Recent perspective.

In recent election we have seen that victorious party won by 35% of the capable strength of votes, then question arise, where are the rest votes? obviously, there are the person's who had didn't voted. This question needs to be answered. In Kerala, majority of the people not voted due to the non-availability of female candidates, possibly this is the reason for the upper question but is it for all states? This is vague in respect of other states regarding the same issues.

Our great pacifist leaders gave their whole life for good life, prepared a well stable constituency so that we live in an archaic environment still we seeing ourselves far lag behind of another country. This means we are not respecting their belongings. We clouding their beautiful constituency.

Our country is larger democracy in the world, even another country also thinks as a milestone.

Overall, we not need to copy them to how to bring growth in the economy but to make our own terms rule the world with our merits and the advantages which are absent in another country's.

Well, according to my point view it is us who is responsible for the backwardness of our country. We lack to choose better leaders in our own area. Many of us just run behind the money and totally forget about the future of our own area. Forget about the nation we don't even think for the development of our own near n dear ones.

Hello everyone,

In my view, blames on the politics is not even correct because we guys select our leader then its own responsibility how we select our leader which work according to growth of our backwardness.

In our country many peoples are ranging to illiteracy, corruption and politics system is also affects our economy.

If we doing our work with responsibility and select a good leader which work according to people demand. Then we can resolve our backwardness.

Yes I agree with you my friend Venkatesh as you said most of the politicians concentrating on their own growth and they attract the people by introducing some schemes which will not be useful in our country's growth.

Blaming the political system of India means you are blaming the constitutional democracy which the country follows. The backwardness is a relative term which should be carefully defined.

That being said system which is plagued with avarice of the politicians, blatant corruption, leg pulling, back and forth between parties in power, etc these do not contribute to the upliftment of the country. Some of these things happen because of the system. Some don't. Blaming the system doesn't get us anything. Each system has pro's and con's. We the people, have to work together to get as much good as possible out of the system.

Yes, the political system is one of the reasons for backwardness. I can give one example in our country there is a lot of black money some politicians has some black money. If politicians are good the country will lead to developing. If the leader is bad he is indirectly encouraging people having black money is good then people will follow same. Then it leads to the backwardness of the country.
