Is our Political System the reason of our backwardness?

There is one thing in the system that never changes. And it is the habit of cribbing. People keep on cribbing about the
problems that they are facing in the system. But no one wants to take an initiative to start the change. Now at this time
when general elections are near, people are busy blaming the political system for all the problems going on in country.
Do you also think that our political system is the reason for our backwardness?

Yes

The first problem that the people have witnessed in last few years is the increase in number of scams. Where do these
scams come from? Where does all the money? These and other such question have raised a question on the credibility
of the system.

Political system is a group of different parties who should work together to improve the status of the country. But in the
present system all the parties are busy in blaming each other.

The infrastructure of the country is lacking behind and it needs a lot more money to match the standards. But the
money of people is spent on massive election campaigning.

Whenever something wrong happens in the society parties brings the matter to parliament, blame the ruling
government and then the matter is closed. Can someone tell where the solution is?

It is the political system that continuously gives place to the tainted politicians in the system. How can you always
appoint such people who in any case are of no good to the local people?

If some party tries to give place to new generation then the old people of the parties oppose the decision.

No

You cannot mix political system and politicians with each other. They are connected with each other but you cannot
ignore the good work done by the honest politicians.

For the benefit of the people, the parties keep on discussing new policies and try everything to make them pass in the
parliament.

People keep on blaming the political system, but actually they are the one who are responsible for all these problems.
They refrain themselves from voting and later just keep on complaining about government.

Lack of education, the attitude towards women and most importantly our social system are the main reasons for
backwardness.

Backwardness is a very relative subject. Our country is a developing country and is doing well on many fronts. So how
could you even say that is a backward economy?

Youth are responsible for the backwardness. No one wants to join politics to develop the country. Everyone wants safe
jobs and a happy secured life.

It is the attitude of the citizens of the country which is to be blamed. If the citizens do not take an initiative and work
hard, how can they expect the government to meet all their requirements? A country progresses when its citizens
innovate and work hard.


Conclusion

Political system is made by the politicians and is formed by the votes that are casted by local people. All of the elements
are responsible for the good as well as bad. Just blaming the political system cannot lead our country to the path of
development.

Though not directly, but yes, political system remains a main cause for our backwardness. Being rich in every resource,
we still fail to lead the race with the developed nations.

The pin point cause for the backwardness being corruption, which operates right from the topmost chamber of the
pyramid in the hierarchy scale. Corruption has led us down in every aspect. Every corrupt official has a supporting hand
of his senior, which ends with the political support. India still can be called the Golden Bird, but the difference is that the
wealth is consolidated at the richer part of the society.

Rich is becoming richer, making the common man bear the impact. The political uphold in India is a complete ball of
false and totally untrustworthy people, bundled up to pull the leg of the own team members, the citizens of our country,
which is the main cause of brain drain. Not only the brain drain, every issue in India has a thread running at the back
leading to the political system at the root level.

To get back our self-esteem and show our original talent to the world, we definitely need to change the political system in
our country.
