Is our Political System Reason for our Backwardness?

What I felt and understand the topic is already we know happened here but we don't know what to do.

If you will see meticulously watching the election. For example, majority party won major parts constituency in the states. But winning (majority) party got only 30% voters among 100% population remaining 70% population hate the won party but here majority party was ruled. This trick was used all elections go to backwardness India.

India has different cultures and languages and also huge population. So we won't follow developed countries rules and regulations.

We have to create own unique ideas based on our society. Then only clear corruptions and its solutions.

We can't blame politics for the backwardness. As everything has two ways positive or negative. We should be true with our part as a daily life routine we ignore the moral duties that one should perform as a vigil citizen of a democracy so that others can be saved as they are lacking in awareness. The government makes policies for our welfare there is no point of blaming them without implementation and only we can implement these rules. As for an example, we know that child labour is a bad and we still tolerate it every day in one or more points. At that of time, we don't follow the duty rules. The other example is that bribe id unethical and unjust but some of us just take it lightly and even pay to get our work done somehow so the only govt cannot be blamed for backwardness we too are responsible for that.

Hi, folks, this is a topic worth discussion as the state of country and quality of leadership in a country are both dependent on same building component which is the People of this country.

A building made of poor material will never stand tall, however meticulously it is planned. In a similar way, the country we live in will never develop till we, the basic fiber of the country are developed. Gone are the days when a king planned and ran entire nation in his own ways, good or bad. The present world is run by people and takes the path which majority of its people decide.

This political system was implemented by our leaders who brought this country into existence after a long period of slavery. They fought for good and passed on to us a very strong foundation of democracy. Facts reveal that we have lost ourselves to greed, malice, fear and lost our sense of vision. We forgot the quality of life and broke threads of society to build cocoon nest of our own. A population has grown ten folds and so have each vice in society. However, moral and social education have not grown at the same pace.

I agree that politicians in present day country are causing a lot of damage to the progress of the country. But, the question is who elected them to decide the fate of the country?

It's up to us to choose good leaders and bring our country among leading countries.

As per my point of view, just before all the things think that what we are doing. Everyone just thinks like I, me and myself. The government gives many of the facilities to us but we can't use them properly. We just do our work and then just forget.

We all know child labour is offensive for ex. If we are standing on any chat corner and eating something and if any child cleaning plates in front of us for that moment we just feel bad and then we just pay for our dish and then forget all whatever we see before some time. This is one of the most backwardnesses in us. If we are well educated and still we are behaving like this then we are responsible for our backwardness only.

Hello everyone,

I do not support that politics is the reason behind our backwardness if I say it, indirectly I am blaming on myself because these politicians come trough the same society where we live. They are a politician because we make them. So brothers tell me how can we say that they are and their system is a reason behind OUR backwardness.

If I blame someone for our backwardness then I want to say that, it is Racism. It is Illiteracy.

Thank you.

Hi, friends. I am Radha Mohan.

Our topic is political system responsible for backwardness. In my point of view, they are the major part of this but not fully. Peoples are also responsible as child labor dowry are not allowed but some selfish person takes dowry and some people send their children to work instead of sending him to school to be educated and think wisely about him his family and country so that ha can take decision wisely. And most of the educated person try to avoid politics then how can wee blame uneducated politician. Many of people at time of election want to solve out their problem in favor of their vote. So we have to take responsibility and try to think beyond of our selfishness.

Hi friends, I'm Bon Ngullie from Nagaland.

Wel, our topic "Is our Political System Reason for our Backwardness" is worthy to be debated and awareness spread throughout India till we get a positive outcome. To my opinion, the answer to the topic is 100% Yes. Let us focus our attention once in our electioneering system. I think electioneering system in India is nothing but asking and giving money for the precious votes. The mindset we have all is not for development and progress in the real sense BUT money and money. Come election, check out yourself, what our people do when a fellow politician come to our village for campaigning, our people intention is to MEET THE CANDIDATE in secrecy, FOR WHAT? to soft whisper in the candidate's ear "if only you can solve my/our immediate needs now at this moment, my/our votes belongs to nobody" (deal completed). So, folks, this is our political system and whether you all agree with me or not, we are deeply rooted in money mindset "THE DANGER IS THIS FOR OUR PEOPLE NEVER TRY TO LOOK BEYOND THIS ARENA" Of course false promises and false assurances were given by every political party to do this or that if voted to power but which the really don't do even if elected to power is also another factor to blame for our political backwardness. Another great set back of our system is "cornered politics" - tribalism, clanism, communism, etc, etc. Yet another factor which is tearing our political system is - goondasim politics.

Wel, folks we have many more factors to be added but the best thing that we can do is, if we can say this - I AM RESPONSIBLE FOR INDIA'S BACKWARDNESS SO I WILL TAKE THE STAND TO REBUILD MY COUNTRY POLITICAL SYSTEM TO "FORWARDNESS".

God bless India. AMEN.

Hello, friend.

A politician is not solely responsible for the backwardness of our country but it is on first which is responsible for backwardness. Today we are seeing politicians are implementing the laws and reform but we are not taking it seriously for Ex. Child labour is offensive but I know lots of people who send his child for work in cities. Are politicians responsible for this? Today no one educated people are interested in becoming politician then how we can blame to uneducated politicians.

On other side lots of politicians who are not taking responsibility of his post. They are doing wrong things like corruption, cast &religion based politics.

So there is need of awareness between both politicians as well as public to take responsibility for changing India from developing to developed.

Hello, everyone.

I would like to add some points to our discussion on "Is political system responsible for our backwardness".

According to me, we can not blame on political system rather we can say yes in some cases politicians are responsible for it but again I would like to say we are solely responsible for this because the citizens of India are not aware of choosing the right candidate among the nominated rather they prefer to give vote to the candidate of their caste.

There are many other reasons behind the backwardness of our country that I would like to list out:

1) Casteism.
2) Dowry system.
3) Sticking to our old culture and nonadaptation of globalization etc.

Thank you.

Hi Richa here,

I Believe that politics and people of the nation are hands in hand. Politics is responsible for the backwardness of the nation but on the other hand people are also responsible for the backwardness. For Example, Government is providing us metro services but it's us who making it dirty. There is a regular announcement in the metro not to throw papers in the metro or not to eat in the metro but still people are continuously are doing this, without thinking that they are making their own loss. In the same way, there are many example if we throw light in them which shows that Government is not fully responsible for the backwardness.

We can help to make our country more developed if we focus on Education, Laws and other factors.
