Why Indian politicians are frequently amending constitution in spite of showing great respect to it?

Very good Question,  The Indian constitution was formed in the year 1947 i.e nereby 60years ago. The Laws made at that time were aplicable for that particular period or say for nearly for 25 years. As the period elopes there seems to be many changes in the conditions of a particular law. Many people find wrong ways to evade the laws, so to bring these people under control the law has to be changed and hence a n amendment is necessarry ( Law does not mean only criminal law) Actually acording to me India needs a new constitution pertaing to the present and future period, but some politician do not allow to change the constitution just for the sake of votes. Actually it is also that not every comon person know about the whole, each and every law in the constitution. For this the leaders are afraid that at present if the constitution is changed, each and every comon person will get  to know very much about the constitution, due to the vast growing media and information links. And hence they would loose their votes which they earn only in the name of the constitution and its writer. It must be known that any constitution must be given great respect be it of the country or state, company or society. But till such leaders are there no change can be done hence there are amendments done to it.

its simple vote bank politics. and why only the congress. no other party has opposed it. they don't want to loose their share of obc and sc st votes. even the bjp has not spoken on it. clearly shows that the parliament at present is full of rotten demented politicians who care only for their power\n\nnow coming back to the main point ; -\n\nreservation as such should not completely be removed. i agree with you. the basis should be monetary as i have stated in one of my earlier answers on the same topic.\n50% is not required considering the fact that so many seats remain vacant. \nit should be ensured that once a person from the backward class gets reservation his following generations should not be allowed to avail this opportunity because that is gross injustice. and once in office he should not be given the privilege of early promotion which is extremely unfair. and also people from the backward section earning decent money should not be given reservation (unlike one of my friends who is an sc and is in iit.. he didn't deserve reservation beacuse.his parents annual income was 7 lakhs.. imagine!!)\n\nthere are olny two sections rich and poor. extend the reservation to the poor.\n\nand also reservation at each and every step will handicap the person mentally and he will never put the best effort into his work beacuse it will be at the back of his mind that he has an advantage over others..

the government is upholding the quota matter because the Congress party(UPA) has no other worst method to capture the slipping vote bank from its hand. as the other national parties like BSP, SP, RJD, LOK JANSHAKTI, and the other regional parties are gradually capturing the vote banks, created in the name of reservation to the marginalised section.the resservation which has make them really dependable on the quota.so new reservatiopn is required for them for a new vote bank.it is a new version policy devide and rule which will creat brain drain.

Please read the first few articles of the US Constitution, or look at a junior high school level civics book.  The system of checks and balances is in place and the press has taken on the duty of watchdog.  Take a look at any of the news networks or on the web.  The constitution is too important to amend it too often!

Yes they must be held totally responsible. But we have a disparate group of about 545 humans sitting n holding the parliament WHO DO NOT HAVE THE GUTS to call a spade a spade. If you want to point a finger at another, you also need to scratch your head about what would happen if he repoints his finger at you!! - this is the kind of situation in Indian parliament! It is sad that we are still not able to find one President who has the guts to get out of Rashtrapati Bhawan on sighting corruption or a Prime Minister who has the guts to catch and kick out the corrupt minister/sr.officer. Public cooperation/awareness, initiate, enthusiasm etc. are so low nothing can be done about corruption in India. The grovelling culture of India has weakened the system. Public honesty is pretty low. When kids are taught to follow honesty and to have pride, maybe in course of time, things might change in India.

The issue of charter change just begun when the HELLO GARCI scandal occures.And is intended to shift the interest of the people,to stop the investigation.That is why some officers stand being a witness is dismis from their position.It is the intelligent mind of the CROCODILE they have been protecting.\n\nThere's nothing wrong with the system,It's the people in there.\n"It:s better to a city to run by a good man than a good law."

They are already in. Whose opinion you are asking and how does it have any weight on decisons taken by any Govt.\nBetter get an opinion poll conducted within India and amongst the readers of various periodicals and political parties.

Basically it is to amend the Constitution in whatever country to a new updated/amended one. It also can be used in any charter be it for boat building or whatever...\n\nHope this helps\n\nJems xXx

Educated people have come to power (Manmohan Singh) in India and the decrease in "corrupt and illiterate" politicians is happening. Obviously, it isn't happening exponentially, but there is a decrease and India is becoming a more politically honest country. Bihar is still a problem, as usual. The mob is still a problem as well, but the Indian government is actively cracking down on these illegal groups.

only 'feathers of same bird flock together'.  when it is impossible for the present to find a politician of His Excellency's calibre in our country, how could we expect the 'politicians' to elect him for the consecutive term?\n\nit's only the so called people's representatives who may not elect him, but if the true citizens of India are given a chance, he'll surely be elected as the President, to remain in office throughout........\n\nBut he must be given the 'actual powers' to restructure the nation.  then see the way the other nations look at our India.  it's only him who could make this possible.\n\nI SALUTE THE HON'BLE PRESIDENT!

In India, laws are not enacted based on caste or religion. If anyone don't pay their debts whoever it is, whether a Harijan (Dalit) or upper caste person, law will take its own course. Only the politicians are playing vote bank politics on them. \nMy request:\nGandhi called the scheduled caste people with a better name 'Harijan' which means people of God. But these politicians have changed it into Dalits. Let us use the sacred name 'Harijan' for them.
