Hi friend, Bon Ngullie again.
Let me be very frank about this topic. In a democratic country like us, people fade wholly hang in politics. But so far the people of India found none to hang on. So the need of the hour is to raise Upright, honest, righteous, fearless, godly Indian to lead this great nation. Dishonest implementation of various schemes and projects means for our country developments is the worst example which our politicians are intentionally destroying our great nation in nexus with corrupt bureaucrats and local goons and mafias, Where is the accountability? If our people fairly utilized our resources, I think we would be ten times more developed than the United State of America.
May God Bless India. Amen.

All right here is a thought when we say politicians so what are they for in this country and for that matter in any country they are to ensure well-being of society and infrastructure of a country but instead of taking a note on what is happening deep down under skin in country (say public education which is wrecked) they kept themselves mere in "politics" as you know they are both executive and legislative body of this country they wield immense power but the keen desire to work for the people is lacking at least in most of them.
Our mostly paralysed democracy has a lot to do with the mindset of our politicians.
Well, it's not that all blame should be on them. Our native population to choose popularity over superiority and that give away to rich and/or uneducated crooked and sometimes educated crooked politicians.

No, I think it is 'corruption in political system' that is one of the reason but not the only one. We cannot put all the blame on the political system for all the problems. Our political system is one of the best in the best if remove corruption from it.
As far as backwardness is concerned there are many factors which are responsible for it like.
- Lack of basic education at lower economic level.
- Some of the old traditions in rural areas.
- The growing economic difference between lower and upper class.
- Unskilled youth.
Etc.

Hello, everyone.
As the topic "is our political system is the reason for our backwardness?".
If we talk about the political system then let me tell you frankly that our system is totally motivated by our great constitution. And our system has given equal opportunity to all citizen of India, freedom of speech and liberty to all. So system can't be blamed for the backwardness of the Indian continent.
Now the point is then who are responsible for this,
What I believe,
There are two points:
1) Execution of system may not be as per the constitution.
2) Those who are executing I mean executors (some of them not all) also may not be good or with a good spirit.

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.

Of course, no good can be expected from an institution headed by a bad leader and Politicians are the perfect example of a bad leader. Due to corrupt nature of politicians, the subjects have now adopted "Life in the Jungle" or " Everybody for himself" attitude.
You either take that bribe or be good and not take it, but the politician at the top will definitely take it, depriving a worthy course of seeing the light of the day.
But, who is the politician ?
The Politician is your father, sister, mother uncle, friend and yourself. Hence, until the human mindset of the aspiring leader is renewed, everybody will grow into a bad Politician.
Backwardness is not the fault of the Politician.

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.

I do agree that the bad political system does lead to backwardness up to some extent. BUT what we should focus on, is how to make it better. We make the political system and then we criticise our choice. Rather than discussing what had happened we should think about how it will be in the future. Let me take an example. Suppose a kid gets ill, then people starts discussing that what he had eaten, how did it happen, etc. Instead of immediately curing him. In the same sense, our political system is ill. And we are the one who can cure it. As "APJ" use to say-" where there is richness in the heart, there is beauty in the character, where there is beauty in the character, there is harmony in the home, where there is harmony in the home, there is order in the nation and where there is order in the nation there is PEACE IN THE WORLD. What I want to say is the change comes from yourself. And we as a citizen make the system, not the system make us.

Hi Everyone,
Good evening, I am Sudhakar, I am going to speak against the topic.
In my opinion, Indian political system is very strong, we can say that politicians are corrupted, but not the political system. We can't just blame the political system for the corruption, we all have the option to choose a right candidate in an election, if we didn't choose the right one for the reason of caste or money, then it is our fault. Each person in India responsible for our backwardness.
There are much other reasons for our backwardness.
People in India are not utilizing the opportunities available in their hand. They are just looking for the perfect job.
The education system is not well defined, students are just thinking to become the doctor or an engineer to earn money, they are not thinking about the nation.
Many people who have studied in IIT/IIM are going to foreign countries to the shuttle. They utilized the resource of India to study and going to work in foreign countries.
Many people are not paying the tax on time, Tax is the main revenue to the government to utilize it for the development works in India. We can see we are ourselves responsible for our backwardness, not the political system alone.
Conclusion: We can't just blame our political system because we people only elect them only thing that we need to do is to elect the right candidate during the election. We should also work with responsibilities, without fully depending on the government. On another side, a government should also take initiatives to increase the entrepreneurs in our country, and take action to mitigate the brain drain.

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.
