Presidential v/s Parliamentary Form of Government in India

I think parliamentary form of government is better as because US which follows presidential form is ranked 19 th most corrupt country while India is ranked 94 th most corrupt. There are many more such examples. Which can prove this fact.

It is alright to discuss the best form of government over presidential or parliamentary system but now in India's the current situation warrants that for another five year period we need a presidential form of government by electing a party to power which is represented by a strong leader. By doing so India can be brought back to the growth path This will be a real test to decide which form of government is suited for India. At this juncture one should remember in the present system due to corrupt politicians we have seen only dynastic rule.

India should have presidential form of government so that it can take quick decisions and perform better in the future. And at the same parliament form of govt is also good because there is choice for the people to choose their leaders.

The parliamentary form of government is ideally suited to a democratic set up such as India as against the presidential form adopted by the USA which however according to you is a better form of government. Support your answer with relevant examples and arguments.

With the experience of more than 60 years of the parliamentary system, the situation is disappointing in every walk, hence even after considering some demerits of the presidential system, it is superior & should be accepted. It will curb the present chaos & corruption to a large extent.

In parliamentary form of govt executive is accountable for its every action to legislative but delay in implementing decisions. In presidential form of govt there can be quick progress in implementing decision but it can be turned into anarchy if we allow it in India because executive is not accountable. Better to follow parliamentary form of govt.

Hello my self Dinesh we are talking about parliamentary vs presidential I thing presidential system in India is better than parliamentary system because my friend you know that our Indians political system is essential for or our country.

India is anyway suffering from the 'virus' called corruption since years despite of having a parliamentary form of government. So why not take a risk of 5 years and try the presidential form of government? risk are high but there's no harm in taking one!may be that could lead to political stability in an organized way!

Hi folks, according to my view for a country like India vesting absolute power in hands of one person can be a risky venture as Lord Acton said" Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely". I am not saying that parliamentary system is corruption free.

But if we people of India join together to force our government to apply proper norms and restrictions and work together then we can make this system a success. Lokpal introduced recently if implemented judiciously can prove to be success. We have NOTA option also to use of electoral choice wisely if we don't find any candidate worthy to be selected. So by applying proper rules we can make our democratic system a success.

I am a citizen of India, by birth, and a retired HSC physics / chemistry teacher. I have exercised my franchise of voting in many elections. Therefore my following points will be useful in having a true and able government, which will really take care of the society.

1). First of all, I am against the parliamentary system because it grossly violates the basic principle of democracy " that is - for the people, from the people by the people". As a result, in our country political parties have been mushrooming in the last 66 years, this trend automatically puts an obstacle for having proper governance. On the other hand, these parties make adverse effect on the governance. Therefore I think, we have to adopt the presidential system just like in the USA, only ruling and opposing parties.

2). Secondly, in my opinion, a democratic system cannot survive if its foundation is having *religious* cracks and therefore there should not be any concession based on any *religious factor* in the national and provincial governance. Every rule, law, act etc. In the governance must be based on natural science. As a retired science teacher, let me state one important fact. For Nature, every child by birth is a *Homo sapiens* and Nature records death of a person as death of a Homo sapiens " not as a Hindu or a Muslim or a Christian. And hence I firmly believe that concessions based on *religion* must stopped because they are dangerous for the national integrity.

If these reforms are implemented today, we will have to wait for at least 25 years to see the fruits. But we must do it, if we really want to change the gloomy picture of 50 years.
