ANTI-DEFECTION LAW - Is India a real democratic ??
ANTI-DEFECTION LAW - Is India a real democratic ??
I would say our system is a mockery at the idea of Democracy for the simple reason "ANTI-DEFECTION LAW"
Q. What is the problem with ANTI-DEFECTION LAW
A member of a House belonging to any political party shall be disqualified for being a member of the House-
(a) if he has voluntarily given up his membership of such political party; or
(b) if he votes or abstains from voting in such House contrary to any direction issued by the political party to which he belongs
or by any person or authority authorized by it in this behalf, without obtaining, in either case, the prior permission of such political party,
person or authority and such voting or abstention has not been condoned by such political party,
person or authority within fifteen days from the date of such voting or abstention.
For Example, A bill in parliament is not in the interest of a state, or a constituency.
The member/s representing that state or constituency cannot vote against it if the "party" they belongs to, decided to go with it .
Lets take the case of a railway budget, in most of the budgets the state of Kerala was neglected,
but none of the members of the ruling party could vote against it due to this law, though the budget is against the people whom they represent.
Are they mere representatives of a party or of the people who chose him/her, thinking (that the concept right??) that he would represent them. ??
What existence should a party have in the legislature system ??? It should have never been allowed.
For instance
My MP, Mr Suresh Kurup, belongs to the CPI(M) .
As a Representative Democracy, he should ideally represent my constituency and its people in Parliament,
and that his vote on any issue in Parliament should be in the interest of us.
But in our system , he cannot take a stand based on what is best for the constituency he represents.
He has to vote according to the party-lines. His vote in Parliament is decided by a few people who decided the party lines.
And it means that decisions are ultimately made by a few people were not elected by the people of our constituency.
What right/role does a party have in deciding the matters of our constituency ???
I voted for him not because he is CPI(M), but just because of his abilities and my trust in him, and I am sure there are many like me.
If this is what democracy means, give me a good reason why people should vote, where does it count ???
Assign a bunch of lunatics as party "high-command" and "polit-bureau" s and leave the country to them.
India is a country where life is just happening!!, its really a blessed country, otherwise it would haven been to ashes long before.
Jai Ho. !!!
