Parliamentary form and presidential form both are successfully working. The two forms of government have their own distinctive characteristics & their respective merits and demerits.
In recent times it has been felt that the presidential form is more workable & urgently needed. Here I want to share some points suggesting that presidential form is better than parliamentary form,
1. In the parliamentary system, the pm and the chief ministers are totally dependent upon their respective legislatures in the matter of selection of the ministers. On one hand they are expected to select men of vision. Integrity, ability, professional knowledge and most important-practical experience. Whereas under the presidential system, the president is not hampered by such considerations. He is not tied to or subordinate to the legislature. He is free to choose his cabinet of ministers from outside the members of the legislature.
2. The elected leader of the majority party becomes the PM & then forms the government. Whereas, in presidential form of government, the president is the real head of the executive and is elected directly.
Thus, at the end of the debate, I would like to conclude that presidential for of government is better than the parliamentary form in many aspects which were not possible to mention. Presidential system means- greater stability & sanity in the politics of a country, without any doubt.

Presidential form of government is better. There are many corrupted politicians who eats all the money and does nothing for people. If there is a direct control by president then there would be no corruption. This type of government can help to improve country economically and politically.

As if we want some changes in our life then we have to change our habit, follow ethical values, not involve in corruption etc. After following all the mentioned point we can change our India in next 20 years.
I don't think that Presidential form of government can be helpful for India because India is vast diverse of religious people living together, from Kashmir to Kanyakumari and Gujarat to Assam, have different language, way of living, and thinking.
This is can't be handle by just one or two party so parliamentary form of government is needed to bind together. So presidential form of government will not applicable in populous country like India.

As in the presidential form of government, the president is elected on the basis of direct election. It will be an advantage to all Indians to chose a leader of their choose. The leader will also be obliged to the people then the other ministers.

Ya, my friend, it is true that presidential form of government can bring down the corrupted politicians on the ground and no one can misuse their powers. But in India their are 1000 of casts and religions and their fore while electing the president directly, their will be a lot of contradictions among the people of different religions and this will tend to create a violent environment. But in parliamentary elections people can elect ministers directly and the parliamentary members will elect the superior authority.

Presidential form of govt is the only way for development of India then parliamentary form. Because in presidential form people elect one person and vest power in his or her hand, not to thousands like parliamentary form which lead to misuse of power. So according to me presidential form is the only way to india's success. Because right person at right place and at right time to act.

I support parliamentary form of government because people and the the members of parliament itself can keep a check on the government and each other and full power is not vested in one man's hand as it is harmful and can cause dictatorship.

I think parliamentary form of govt is more better than presidential form of government It work democratically and on that the control of all peoples. They are binding with people and for the work. The parliamentary form control on govt. And if any council of minister is misuse that power, then representative of parliament ask the question to the govt. Due to this it is easy to dismiss the govt. In presidential form of govt, it is difficult to remove the govt. In this 1 man can take all decision sometimes but in Parliamentary which is not allowed.

In my view parliamentary form of govt is the best because as India is a vast country. Many politicians are required, thereby seeking small responsibility in every politician. And misuse of power can be reduced. But in presidential form of govt power lies in once individual. There by whole authority comes into his hands in taking any sort of decision. Thereby there will be no power ahead to punish him. Leading to disasters. And threats. So"INDIA SUITS TO BE IN PARLIAMENTARY FORM OF GOVERNMENT".

Since USA has presidential form of government.
It can also lead to dictatorship. (some possibility)
that is my point of view.
not that presidential from of govt. doesn't have any merits. Like -
- Less of party politics
- They have a fixed tenure
- stability of govt
parliamentary from of govt. too has many demerits.
