IMMORALITY IN INDIAN POLITICS

India one of the largest democracies of the world remains under the rein of elections almost every year. The multiple political parties created at regional level by some families or influential groups of affluent persons in association with the goons and mafia of the area to remain in the corridors of power has adversely infected the utmost agenda of National vision and the socioeconomic development of the country. The multiple party system, frailty of Indian political system, is creating the regional, religious, social and economic differences among the voters. The regional heads of such parties mostly use every worst possible method to remain in power. The cast politics has created the social wedge in the society. The community politics on religious bias has ruined the age-old mixed culture of the society. The shyster leaders of regional parties are not concerned about the development of the people, social justice and not to talk of Nation. They either bluff the voters and exploit their emotions or at some places terrorize the voters, for the selfish good only.


As has been observed at the time of independence, the people at the helm of affairs in Congress failed to stop the British rulers to accomplish the agenda of Islamic Jihadies to divide the nation on religious ground and further repercussions of communal bloodshed. The impact of the cruel game of British and Islamic fundamentalists was harmful for integration of Indian society, impact, the division on religious bases largely developed mistrust among the two main communities of Indian society, Hindu and Muslims, which further deepened when Pakistan regulars in the garb of tribal (Kabailies) raided Kashmir and mass mascaraed the selected minority population of Hindu faith, Sikhs and Pandits of Kashmir. The partition has resulted homelessness of millions of Hindus of Pakistan who were displaced and took shelter in different districts of Jammu. The poor and destitute were kept hanging for 70 long years to recognize them as citizens of this country, faultlessly.


The flexibility of the Indian Constitution in creating political parties has not helped the system to highlight the local/regional issues instead it has developed as a tool of corruption and bargaining for the benefit of family parties. We have observed how MLA’s/ MP’s are put on auction to obtain majority in numbers to grab the power to govern. The toothless law of defection has been manipulated by the political dispensations several times.


These regional political parties created by some families at Jammu & Kashmir, Punjab, Haryana, UP, Bihar Tamil Nadu etc have damaged the PREAMBLE of the constitution of India. By encouraging the entry of dreaded criminals of respective areas, and use them as tool to threaten the people, create communal and regional riots to divide the unity of society, to obtain votes, has damaged the FRATERNITY of society.

We have seen in the past how these regional parties who are largely the combination of criminals and influential families, have manipulated and damaged the administrative and legal system of some states by creating corruption and misappropriated the budgetary allocations meant for development of country and people in general and in turn the common people of society have been deprived of the social, economic and political JUSTICE and the combo have attacked the LIBERITY of citizens following a particular faith of Sanatan Dharma at Kashmir province of erstwhile Jammu and Kashmir State now a UT, Few parts of Delhi & Utter Pradesh and most recently at Bengal after the recent results of assembly elections. Lakhs of peaceful citizens have been compelled to leave their home and land and take shelter at other peaceful areas of country, their properties were looted, so many were murdered brutally and so many rapped. At some places the agenda of Jehadies was implemented and at some places these family parties were in the tranquility of being in power and wanted to threaten the poor and destitute to raise voices in future against the misrule and corrupt governance.


After about more than seven hundred years of slavery of cruel Islamic invaders and British Monarchy, the peace-loving Indian society was compelled to follow their rules & regulations to survive and the generations continued to live as such, which resulted into depletion of our thousands of years old rich culture in few week pockets of country and defective educational system diminished the mental ability of the common Indians

While framing the constitution of country after independence it was necessary to obtain the services of such people having in depth knowledge of the history, the rich old culture, the rich educational system and fully versed about moral values and traditions of our social setup in practice before slavery period, following them our society was affluent, educative, peaceful, skilled and developed. Our scientists whom we used to call as Saints, Seers or Prophets have gained the knowledge by concentration of the power of mind and used that for development of humanity and spread the knowledge which made our society affluent in science, art and culture, research and development etc. That affluence of the Nation allured the foreign invaders and looters to our rich country. The long period of slavery made India developed as pluralistic, multilingual and multi-ethnic society. The masters of our constitution must have acted astutely and rigidly while framing rules and regulations about political organization, language and Educational system, to be followed.


Advocating the two-party political system and major constitutional amendments, I may be criticized that the political party having almost national following cannot be absolutely free of corruption or any type of miss rule because in the Congress party, while being in power at the centre and states for longer period after independence of country, has some leaders who have been involved in corruption and have influenced the governing structure to avoid providing Social Justice instead prioritized selfish interest. But if we analyse it deeply we will find that the dynasty interests overpowered the national issues after continues rule. The single dynasty has been at the helm of affairs of the party along with few close persons of party, to whom they have dependence to plead before Judiciary, deal with bureaucracy and create favorable narratives in media. The gang under the umbrella of a family behaved as monarchists instead as democrats.


The federal structure of our country and the unity in diversity is the strength of this nation. I believe that political parties having democratic structure within the system and working on national developmental agenda will survive and effectively govern if they will address the regional issues and aspirations sincerely. This will end the immorality in Indian political system.
