Hi friends,

I don't think politics is the main reason for our backwardness. We are backward because of our fault. We are not utilizing our valuable vote effectively in election. Instead of giving vote to right candidate we give our vote to that candidate who belongs to our caste. The best example we could see in BIHAR that how again jungle razz come back in politics in 2015. Everyone knows that how jungle razz ruled over BIHAR for 15 years and almost throw BIHAR backward for 15 years. Same example we could see in central also i.e. congress ruled over INDIA around 60 years. I remember that when INDIA become independent that time 1 rupees=1 USD but now 68 rupees=1 USD.

Almost all countries have political system and the countries who are developed because the people from developed nations are educated and they aware from the background of all political leader and they utilize their vote the right candidate. That's why they are developed and we are developing nation.

One main reason for our backwardness is the quelling of casteism with one-another and other is during striking we destroy our government property. For example recently in HARYANA people burned many buses and destroyed many government properties.

So, we can't say that political system is the main reason for our backwardness.

Hello everyone.

I'm Ritu Raj.

When we talk about our political system. We should keep in mind that we are talking about our (Indian) political system. If there are any loopholes or any kind of wrong things so, it's our duty to correct it or raise a voice against it. And making aware of the people about such kinds of things. Because mass (people) is something that makes someone very powerful or if he /she wants then can destroy too. You and I have a right to vote so, you can change your vote to the deserving candidates as well. Hence we can't say that only the political system is the reason behind backwardness. Suppose an individual doing wrong with you so, what will you do? Of course, you will also take action against him/her. Similarly, if any government or political party comes with a wrong or false policy or anything that is unethical for our society or country raise your voice or protest against such govt or political party. Take an example of a chain where there is only one government policy. The people of that country do have not any such type of rights. If you people have this, so why you are sitting just in front of your tv and doing comments about this is correct, that is wrong. Come together join our hands and take a step towards change.

No doubts, Politics comprises all the activities of co-operation, negotiation, and conflict within and between societies,

Parties make laws, take decisions and represent the country at an international level, plays important role in the development of any country.

But here I will mention my perspective regarding why Indian politics is not the reason behind the country's backwardness.

We got independence in 1947 at that time conditions were poverty-stricken but now we are the largest democracy and 6th largest economy. Yes, we are a developing country but we are developing well,

No political party is perfect neither any party will, India is the worlds 2nd largest country with a kaleidoscopic variety and rich cultural heritage, which leads to different opinions, mindsets, and beliefs within different groups.

-one of the main reason behind backward is population, lack of awareness regarding surroundings and education, equality.

The government makes laws but it is in our hand how to to follow. Like we take recent example of article 370, Citizenship amendment bill or farm bill. These decisions divide the country into 2 different options where half of the population is in favor and half against which affects the growth of any country.

I think the political system is fully corrupted in India. In our political system many of the people I mean politicians work for money for their purposes, not for society. 80 of the politicians how much of money they take from our government only he knows, 80 of that money used only for their purposes, not for society. I am not blaming our political system this is the fact everyone knows. Illiteracy is our main backwardness most of the who live in hilly areas they don't know about our political system. Whenever elections come leaders go only that time for begging of votes otherwise they don't know who is this. Our education system is one of the main problems for our backwardness since 10 years in corporate schools and colleges fees are increasing day to day year to year nowadays only rich people will go schools and other backward people they have no money for daily purposes how they will go to school. I saw many children on the roads they are begging for food how they will go to school they have no money to eat food this is our main backwardness. So voting is our right you elect right people in right time in the right situation in this country everyone has rights to consume your rights only for the good purpose, not for bad things.

No, I don't think that political system is the reason for our backwardness,

There are several reasons for backwardness and none other then, we ourselves are responsible for it.

1. We can't blame political parties, in fact, political parties work for the benefit of people, they introduce new policies/bills and try their best to implement them as early as possible. For EX: take the case of GST bill, no doubt that the BJP is working at its best to pass it as soon as possible.

2. The thing is, we Indians don't want to work hard, it's our careless, lazy and sluggish attitude which is holding ourselves backwards.

3. I think it's our attitude towards women and minority committees, lack of education, our social system which are the main causes of our backwardness.

4. We as a youth are least concerned with who comes in power, we are so lazy to step outside of our houses to cast votes, and then we blame political parties.

5. In India, most of the people believe in the ideology of finding faults in the system rather than removing them. I think instead of blaming the political system for all this, we should work collectively to bring a change in the country and to make our country progressive.

Thanks a lot!

"Being greedy leads to destruction", keeping this point in mind I would keep my words as, only the politicians are not the reason for backwardness its the whole mob that leads India to degradation.

It's a fact that politicians not all but many of them enter into such stream only for money but how do they get successful for their motive, by us, if we stop going to them to get our work done in return of a huge amount offered they won't snatch your money and by hook or by crook they will have to do their duty.

So if we are giving them chances to move forward for their greediness then they are not that stupid to refuse good offers. Your greediness can change your mind in a second and however good you may be you will surely think of going for the wrong option.

Because you don't know whether your work will be done or not but you will be sure for a handful of money and that is the reason why people offer money because they think by offering a heavy amount a politician would give his best to get the work done. No one in this huge globe is sitting for getting your work done and if you wish to get it done choose the right step and then expect the same from others.

Thank you.

Hello, Friends.

I realize that our political system not responsible for any backwardness, we all are the main reason for any system's backward and progressive. Because we all make the system, the system is does not make us. After the make system, we all forgot our personal responsibility and made the excuse I have not the time to analysis the system or say it's not mine work. Everyone want to get his work as soon as possible by hook or crook. We are discussing here political system but how many people from us took the initiative to improve this? We are always to blame for our failure with an excellent excuse. The system is only a chain for the smooth work. In nowadays we read, listen and watch so many media clips on the base of corruption and scam etc. But this is only our general knowledge topics who is responsible for this. The political system is very wide even we never took the initiative to check our daily basis system like if someone had to go for a driving licence you could see their so many people came with high profile reference and they got their work done easily rest ones still waiting for their turns. In the end, we made us for system not system for us.

Our political system is the only system by which, at present we are in the queue of developing countries, we are touching the new heights in various field just because our government is making easy rules and regulations, making new laws to facilitate the procedures, creating opportunities for the backward communities, creates new awards to motivate people and in every field of education, medical facilities, and even in d direction to get rid off from unemployment our govt is making rules for easy Lones etc.

So now how we can say our political system is responsible for backwardness. ?

Our constitution rights and election commission and supreme court are the guards of the countries political system. And the other and most important thing are being the largest democracy it is our responsibility to choose the best and reliable candidate for making laws for us.

So for the backwardness of instead of political system individual is responsible who is unaware, don't verify the candidate before giving his/her vote, and just to escape from his duties and due to laziness gives the bribes and encourage the corruption.

I agree but I am not supported politics is a reason for our backwardness because they have two sides, that are included good or bad. My opinion is we must develop our capacity and we firstly confirm who is real politicians, who have supported our country and responsible person. Actually choosing responsible must be people. We support and encourage for bad politicals because we want only money money money, our country is very week depend on others. That main reason for we are not considering important issues. More children's has not education, not good maintaining, different types of diseases, intelligent people were going to work foreign (doctors, scientist. ). Many waste products are sales only India because others have cheated easily in Indian people. This culture supports some politicians because they want money.

We have more good quality, Indian people are very cultured, respect to others, helping tendency, motivated, strongest and very talented person but this quality does not accept same people and some politics. Politics is not bad, but some politicians are bad.

According to me, we all are responsible for our backwardness. Politicians do corruption because we allow them to do so for some money or our own other advantages. Also if a politician is honest, then people do encourage them to be good but people think of their own advantages and search own advantages in his decisions taken by the honest politician. Every situation and law has its own pros and cons. So we have to accept them. For example in the middle. Elections in UP were being carried our and then some politicians had drawn the issue of no more reservation will be carried out if you vote for BJP. This was a politics. But at the same time, people thought that Modi will no longer keep the reservation. The disadvantage of the situation was causing harm to the BJP. So no action will be taken again reservation by BJP government So that they will not lose their votes. If they do this they will simply lose votes. So in simple language, we all are responsible for the backwardness. Our thinking, hunger behind money is backwardness.
