The Dark Secrets of Indian Democracy No one Will Ever Tell You
India is the biggest democracy in the world. But the fact is also true that the bigger is not always the best. And same is with the Indian Democracy. If you have been in India you would find every thing here is associated with the politics, be it sports,media,TV or anything. The political interference is present in all spheres of life.
So let’s get to some of The Dark Secrets of Indian Democracy No One Will Ever Tell You.
The Money and Power is all that Matters: Money is all it matters in Indian Democracy. If you have money than you are a right fit for Indian Politics. You have a great scope in the politics. Even if you can not enter the politics directly, you have a great chance of controlling it indirectly. Leave apart the money, even if you have power due to some unethical means believe me you you are more than a fit for Indian politics. Raja Bhaiya an Independent candidate from Uttar Pradesh is a live example of it. There are many more which can be named. But defaming anyone who is already defamed is not a good idea.
Join Politics and Be a Multi Millionaire: If you somehow joined a party in India and able to win a single election in no time you will go from rags to riches. Let me tell you a live example of it.
There was a video of a man who was contesting election for the first time. A media person approached him and asked him the reason for joining the politics. The man straight forwardly told the media person that the only reason he wanted to join politics is just because he wanted to earn money.
So I think that it sums up how people in India perceive Politics. The example I gave is just about a simple man. Think of a big leader in India and see his history before he won election and after he won election. He would have made millions.
Corruption is the Synonym for Politics: Once India was called the Golden Sparrow and trust me we still live in the country and it is still a Golden Sparrow. I know you would not trust me on that. Believe me but we still are. The number of corruption cases we have seen are enormous. The people that have fled from the country after taking money from the banks are large in quantity. Nirav Modi and Mr. Mallya are a recent example of that. We have seen the beauty of Commonwealth but not many outside India knows the black side of it. And there are a lot more examples like that. And if we continue the list would go-on.
So these are few of the dark secrets that every one should know. If you think and I missed something please let me know.
