The electorate through the general elections elect a party to power, but more often than not, the name of person who would become prime minister after being elected to power is not disclosed. Even if it is disclosed very frequently it is changed after being elected to power. The prime minister is invested with several key powers; the electorate should have the right to know his identity. 2. The cabinet ministers, who play an integral role in the functioning and development of the country, are not directly elected by the people. This makes the whole process of voting less democratic in nature. The real power is not in the hands of the people. 3. This un-involvement of the people in the elections also decreases the interest and need of the people to vote, as they do not actually play a definitive role in the formation of the government. 4. Very frequently in India, the government formed is a coalition of parties (E.g. The United Progressive Alliance). In such a system there could be constant frictions between individual parties, due to the difference in ideologies. On account of this there could be stagnation of public work programmes, implementation of policies etc. 5. The concept of vote banks is unfortunately, firmly instilled in the Indian system of a parliamentary democracy. Vote banks are created in different areas and constituencies by different candidates and parties, on the basis of cast, race, religion etc. Corruption and defection too is rampant. A more transparent system is required. Hence clearly the presidential system is required. DEMERITS OF THE CURRENT PARLIMENTARY SYSYEM:

Any government, be it UPA, NDA or even Third Front will simply hope that these marginal parties remain happy so that they get their support and the coalition stays afloat. No new legislation can be bought by the executive, just out of fear of loosing the majority in the legislature. It's development which is held at ransom because of minor parties. In a presidential form, the legislature is separate from executive, thus the executive can perform unhindered, while legislature retains the veto to debate and vote. Basically legislature can perform as it likes and it will the strength of the character of the executive to get their policies approved. Further the electorate will have two votes, one for the leader which they wish to see as the head of the executive and another for their legislative head of their constituency. Which means one can give two votes to different parties. In short the electorate has power to choose the leader as well.

I have always maintained that just passing news laws is not going to get us anywhere unless the implementation is with honest people. Our problem is not that there are no laws but that there is no implementation or that implementation is selective. It took Supreme Court to force CBI to arrest Raja and Hasan Ali as well as others. Do you think without Supreme Court's intervention Kani would have been arrested or a case filed against her? I doubt it. In order to take implementation into our hands, we need to control the government which means replacing the current group of politicians. Very difficult task but we can do it. I have a plan. It is on this subject that I am also writing a book. thanks for your comment. avinash rakesh hi!

Thanks for your mail. Orignally, my logic was that we change the system by bringing competition into politics. The thought we can do this by honest people fighting as independents. However, I realized this would not achieve much because the current political parties would be in control and my being an MP or MLC would be useless. I have realized that if we want to bring about a change, we have to get into power in one go and I have thought of a way to at least try to do so. Since I cannot implement the plan alone, I want to bring it in the public domain. For this, I am in the process of writing a book on the subject to explain my plan in detail with logic. I believe that even we have the Lokpal bill, it may be a step forward but it will not achieve much. People are fighting over trying to bring PM under the Lokpal. This issue at this stage is insignificant. If all the others are made accountable, PM will not be able to do anything. What is more important that we get everybody in the government accountable and a fast implementation of the law. If Jago Party is interested in listening to my idea, I will be happy to discuss with you and the leadership of your party.

Actually, you are saying what I am saying. I am also saying support the cause of corruption. I started my website on this issue much begore Anna Hazare and Baba Ramdev started talking about it. As you said in your response, I do not support the method. In fact, I think Baba Ramdev has lost a great opportunity. Baba Ramdev has ground level support and name recognition all over the country. He should have used this to help a group of people win elections rather than going on fast. Imagine Baba Ramdev supported a group of people who won the elections in a particular state. Don't you think he would be able to make appropriate laws at the state level to reduce corruption? Right now, I think Baba muddled up the issue. First, as mentioned above he should have used his popularity to assist the right people to win elections. Second, he should have waited for Anna Hazare's talks with the government to be over. If the discussion was going the way it is now, he should have have joined forces with Anna Hazare to strengthen the movement. Now I believe that the overall movement has been weakened. mohit hi!

I regret that I don't agree with you. Nitish Kumar has won in Bihar and he has won on the basis of governance. CPM and DMK have been thrown out also on the basis of governance and corruption. To say that people in the villages do not understand any and all issues would be incorrect. People in the villages are as fed up with corruption as we are in the cities. The uneducated are as fed up with corruption as the educated. The uneducated may not understand foreign policy issues but they do undertstand issues related to roti, kapada and makaan. Today, I was watching an interview of a jounalist on the TV and what I heard I think is relevant in India also. In the revolutions taking place in the middle east in various countries, no one is talking about religion, al quieda or religious extreminism. Everyone who is taking part in these revolution is talking about liberty, freedom, jobs and a higher standard of living. The same is now true of most of India. People are increasingly becoming more interested in water, electricity, jobs and development and not other issues like caste etc. You cannot blame the people for voting the way they do. When I voted last time what were my choices. Either Congress or BJP. Whichever way I voted I knew I am in a jam. I didn't see an alternative other than that. We are already in jungle raj but we have the means to overcome the jungle raj by winning elections and making the changes. If, instead we allow small groups of people like Anna Hazare and Baba Ramdev to force their will on the government would be destroying the basic principles of democracy. morgun hi!
