ELECTIONS ARE THE BACKBONE OF DEMOCRACY.
BY: ABC
India is the largest democracy in the world. Elections take place in India at regular intervals to choose state and centre government. This is the beauty of a democracy that through the election mechanism, people can choose their representatives at and change them if they wish to do so.
In any democracy, elections is the base on which a country has to make balance and work as per the leader they choose. Elections form the base or foundation of democracy. It means democratic government is based on elections of the public or nominations. It is conducted for the smooth functioning of the economy. The various cabinet ministers, ministers of state, and various other ministers are selected by the way of elections.
Unfortunately, at times people select unworthy inappropriate persons as their leaders as they are either influenced by money or any other form of bribe like liquor, grain etc. Sometimes they cast their votes in the name caste or community or at times political parties with criminal mind set threaten them to vote in their favour.
In the end, it can be said that elections are the backbone of democracy. EC must ensure no unfair practices are used during election and people must also vote without prejudice, selecting the best candidates that can take the nation towards progress and growth. Afterall, we are if the nation is.
