the major problem is that india is ruled by some inefficient politicians where much of the money goes to their own pockets. it does not mean that all the indian leaders are corrupted, but majority of them are , whatever b the party they belong to. this makes development of india move at the pace of a snail in terms of capital equipment.

Two party systems are inherently more stable than those with more parties, because the way to get more votes is always to be more centrist.  The votes that are being fought over are those who agree with some of what one party says and some of the other.  \nMultiple party systems are more unstable, because the way to get votes is not to appeal to a majority but rather to appeal to a motivated minority.  If there were 10 parties, a party could win with only 15% of the vote--even if the other 85% totally disagree with that parties platform.  This leads to success for racist and nationalist parties, as well as other extreme parties that cater to only one interest.

When this Kichadi UPA government is tottering, under the weight of number of parties, how come, a national government, with leaders of opposite views, can be formed and expect it to deliver goods.\n\nThere are no states men, now a days, only politicians, who don't bother about the nation, but about themselves only.\n\nI think, this system will continue, because there is one party for each caste in India.. There are no principles involved, but only selfishness.

Politicians, each one of them out to carve out a vote bank of himself, are responsible for reservations in India. There is nothing wrong in empowering under privileged and socially deprived. But the way to empower them is to creat right kind of atmosphere where everyone gets equal opportunity. That's a herculean task. Easier way is to pass a legislation. That also ensures vote bank. How have Laly, Mulayam Singh and Mayavati carved out their vote Banks?

Both are federal states and both are republics, but in India, the president is a mere figurehead without any political power (like European monarchs). The executive branch of government in India is a cabinet led by the Prime Minister, but to govern the cabinet needs support from Parliament. While the US is a "presidential" style, the Indian system is thus a "parliamentarian" style of government. \n\nIndia has a multi-party system, while in the US, two parties are dominant (making it a 'two-party system'). The current Indian government is led by the Congress party but is dependent upon support from a range of smaller left-wing parties in parliament. The parliamentary system is fairly similar to that of the UK, the Westminster system, with two houses. In India, the lower house is elected by popular vote and this is from where the cabinet must have support. The upper house could be compared to the US Senate, with representatives from each state, but the election process is different. \n\nThe judiciary in India is independent and the Indian Supreme Court is on the one hand an arbitrer between the states, and the states versus the central government (as a constitutional court like the US Supreme Court), and also the last appellate court.

Very little. The parties originally stood for being conservative and non-conservative(liberal here) but the party leaders have become so close to one another in a mutual attempt at attracting votes from the opposite side that those original values are not so black and white anymore. The media portrays them as opposites in so many things but in reality, neither party does much about much and blames their shortfalls on the other.

In the political spectrum, there is little difference between the two parties. It's more hype to keep the respective bases in line, as you state.

Because of politics and religion.

We are the most successful democracy of the world. About 700 million people of all religion with deferent regions, languages and cultures participate to elect one central government with equal right. The spirit   of democracy is always respected here and no political party can ignore the voice and views of the common people. The rise of regional political parties like RJD, Telagu Desham, National Conference, AIDMK, DMK are strongly representing their regional people within the democratic structure. Likewise BSP, RJD and other many political parties are giving voices to backward and Muslim people. Many political parties treated Muslims as vote bank and a   separate social identity was maintained for them. Maintaining separate social identity has its own repercussions also. Muslims have participated and benefited in the economic growth in the states like Maharashtra and Gujrat but are equally poor in UP and Bihar with their Hindu counterparts.

1. For example if the business is dealing with any other country like US or Pak, the business will depend on the political relations between the that country and India.\n\n2. Same way, the policy of the Govt. (i.e. budget, incentives, subisidies, etc) also change with the change in the political scenario. This also affects the way the business is managed.\n\n3. Currently the govt. is considering to enter the reservation system in the private sector businesses. This also will affect the HR policies, quality of firms HR , etc.\n\n4. If the govt. changes it is affected (For ex. Now the Left parties like CPM are opposing the disinvestment decisions taken by NDA govt.)\n\nHope u got it. :-)

...as Solvek says...\nand their purpose is to question and force discussion about the policies of government. The opposition generates debate. The opposition parties have a very important role in seeking out faults in the governments proposals.

Congress Party was started by an English Man called A.O.Hume, Mahatma Gandhi had suggested dissolution of Congress after Indian Independence, I hope he could have done that.

You need to change your sentence. There is no terrorists in Hindu religion. If you want to talk about political parties VHP and Bajrangdal are not political parties. Can you tell me one political party which doesnot play dirty politics in india? I am sure you cannnot answer, see bellow\n\nCongress - Caused for Babri Masjid distruction they are in power but unable(no, not tried to stop) to stop that bad incident. In Hyderabad So many times created dsiputes betwee Hindu's and Muslims when they are in power\nBJP - Trying to grab votes on religion basis\nCPM&CPI - playing dirty politics in ALL West Bengal streets\nBSP, Smajwad party, AIADMK, DMK, TDP etc.. - All alloting party tickets based on Religion, community and Money only.\n\nIf this is the case how can you blam yourself by single religion though the Hindu's are major religion in India they nevver try to harm other religious people. For every bad incident there is hand of all political parties.\n\nTry solve the present problem, dont try to create new problems to Indais by raising questions like this.\n\nI belive every Indian irrespective of their religion will support my openion.\n\nVery sorry to hurt you, hope you can understand as an Indian\nJai Bharat

India's world image is shaped less by India's political leadership than it is by images of millions of poor people living in shacks, starving, and otherwise meeting the criteria for "third world nation" status.\n\nIt seems to be more related to overpopulation than politics.\n\n(overpopulation = more people than the local economy can support)
