According to my point of view, presidential form of India is best because no one can misuse their powers. But only thing is we have to choose best one. Everything is happened by human so they should have to be alert when they are choosing person.

According to me presidential form of government is better than parliamentary form of government. If, we notice America, they are following presidential form of government. Here president has the supreme power (power is centralized) rather than parliament form of government (power is distributed).

More the distribution of power more is the misuse of power. What actually is happening in India. Today why there is day to day increase in corruption occurring in India. If we see today ministers they make good promises before election but after they win election where are the promises. That is why parliamentary or democratic form of government is the worst form of government.

I support the government led by president of India. Because in the parliament led by a governments makes decisions slowly and steadily, it makes waste of a time while making the decisions and it difficult go get single party in the power.

Some times the government makes with the number of parties which leads to misuse of power. i.e. if the prime minister wants take any decision, the co alliance parties don't like either the prime minister take back of collapse the government so he need to be convince everybody in house of parliament.

So president rule of form is the best to rule India. When it do India will grow like a tree.

India is better with parliament form of government because India have seen many corrupt politician therefore India will not be able to survive if we see a corrupt president in presidential form of government.

If a government is not working properly in parliament then the government is dissolved and a new government is formed but is a president is not able to fulfill his duties as president then it will become very difficult for the county to survive as India is very familiar with corruption and crime.

I feel parliamentary form of government is better as though it takes lots of time to decide on a single issue but if for the right decisions little time is invested then it is totally worthy of it where it is not so in presidential system.

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.

I strongly recommend presidential form of government. As we can see many drawbacks in parliamentary form of government.

Firstly,

We don't get quality leaders to govern our country. We can experience that if any candidate who's opting for any job specially any government job then it is clearly mentioned in the application form that there should not be any criminal charges against him, but everyone know's there are many politician's who have criminal charges against them and despite of that they are continuing there terms as ministers.

My point is that when we need no criminal charges against us for getting a any government job. Then why we are careless for them who are going to govern us for complete 5 years.

Secondly,

You all might me knowing that nowadays every newspaper's headlines with some or the other minister's fake qualification degree cases.

Finally,

There are country's in world where they are governed by president and are most successful in achieving there goals.

I think, India should adopt some features of presidential form, like France which had been successfully working under a mixed form, the prime minister would continue to head the domestic policies while president can be responsible for the foreign policies and both of the two executives can can act as an effective check on one another.

An a system of dual executive, both having their power from the people is more democratic than having a prime minister who influences and wields a huge power or a president who is the sole executive power like that in USA. According to me a mixed form would be the most effective system in India context.

I feel parliamentary form of government is better than presidential form of government because we here that most of the ministers are corrupted most of the people misuse powers. It is better than presidential form form because in presidential form even one and only president is corrupted it would become difficult for a country to run properly.

Moreover in parliamentary form a party which is said to be corrupted could be dissolved and a better party could be chosen. Hence all the religions castes culture can be treated equally. Finally according to me parliamentary form of government is better not the best because each government has its own merits and demerits.

Thank you.
