Is Democracy India’s Archilles Heel?

 Since 1947, India has developed a democracy that is inherent in its country. In the world of business today, I would like to discuss whether this system has become a weakness or a substantial strength in the progression of its economic growth.

The proactive collective movement from its nation founded Indian’s coalition government. Their leaders where chosen by their achievements and ability to performance within the newly form government. At present, more than 40% of the actual governing individuals were brought into government through the inherence of their father/mothers positions. 30% of current MPs are on trial or in jail for semi-serious acts of crimes. This includes issues such as murder, poisoning, rape etc. We now come to terms with the fact that the electoral system in place might be flawed to a certain extend.

Another issue that should be raised is the distribution of wealth in India. Democracy seems to have its why of reaching out its benefits to most of the middle class individuals but then the lower economies will never feel the effects.  As Suhel Seth said can democracy be used as the origin of these problems? Should electoral reform occur to create stronger filtering systems? Will the economy suffer from the current leaders in power?

Please add any thoughts or opinions which might occur to you…
