Fallacious Democratic Government

Democracy, by the people, for the people and to the people in India was definitely formed with a view of an all round growth for the socio, political and economical benefit of Indians. But whether world’s largest democratic government still maintains the idea behind as pure as it was suppose to be is questionable.

Like all other concepts, it brought with it several loopholes too which were inconsiderately clinging up to. Loopholes that are being utilized for vested interests by groups of people time and again. Various scams, corrupt practices and crimes often prompt at the nexus of political and bureaucratic people in our country.

It is the major dark side of democratic government being put to ill use. The recent 2G scam and the Adarsh Society scandal have been glaring examples of the Indian democracy being used for selfish interests. Apparently democracy has become a mere tool of providing capitalists and bureaucrats’ policies for biasing the government and regulating it to suit their selfish motives.

Various policies and subsidies are often found to be favoring certain lobbies of people rather than being in public interest. The policy of the Telecom Ministry to sell 2G spectrum licenses at archaic rates were clearly in favor of certain influential organizations. All these have a major negative effect on the GDP of the country, in spite of an apparent rosy picture being given to the people.

The Solar Energy production funding, although projected to be in social welfare interest had conspicuous deficiencies. Democracy also restricts from the concept of a free market economy in the attempt to control economy, thereby restricting better competition and the scope of quality improvement.

Indeed the democratic Government of India is being seen as having better stability than autocratic regimes by the entire world. This contributes to increasing faith and confidence of foreign investors, thereby maintaining a healthy FDI. However in real, our democratic government is shallow and provides only a sense of representation of the common people. The sadder part is that while this identity of paves the way for growth and development of the common mass, common man fails to follow footsteps of developed nations.

India being world’s biggest democratic country is sadly failing to lift up the face of country and is notoriously mismanaged. From an overhead view this democracy might seem bed of roses where leaders are chosen by mutual consents. The harsh reality, on the other hand is that power over people is still exercised by certain lobby of people. These lobbies on an upper hand may appear religious and racist but are bureaucrats and capitalist.
