Democracy is fine for those countries who have already developed and are rich. No country in the world has ever been able to become rich under a democracy, neither Japan ( single party won all elections since WW2 ) nor Taiwan ( Kuomintang dictatorship) nor Singapore ( single party dictatorship even today) nor South Korea ( became democracy in the 90s )
Singapore is one example. Also the fact you can voice your opinion here, is supportive of democracy. You should know what happens in autocracies or dictatorships, if your opinion is contradictory to state policy.

African failed states and south american banan republics have "Presidential System" so your argument is stupid. Apart from the US, no other country has implemented a presidential democracy without slipping into dictatorship. Parliamentary system is best for India, as it gives voice to every single community in India through elected MPs.
Who decides who has more knowledge!!? Democracy is the best form of government we got so far. Never ever, were we able to transcend power without bloodshed. Only in democracy it happens. Marginalised people's voices are heard in democracy. I feel that this is the best system we got so far. Autocracy might work for few years and then the absolute power corrupts people.

No , that flaw exists in democracy too . else we would not have got "Rubber Stamp" as our PM in 2004-2013. Party based system is not good for the nation , there are good leaders in congress, AAP, TMC, SP etc . What our nation needs is for all the leaders to come together under one banner , and not to fight with each other in the name of parties. Let people elect leaders , not parties. Democracy is a stupid system.
That is a misconception. The chances of whole system becoming corrupt is high in democracy and by the time people notice it is too late as democracy corrupts invisibly. By the way alternative to democracy is not autocracy. There is always a middle way.

At the same time, he is explaining how the US is a mess for having followed the presidential system. Smaller parties are precisely the reason why smaller communities/regions have a voice
Every state in india is dominated by 2 parties 3 in few cases imagine if each district has its own authority contrary to Chief minister who has absolute power over every district. It's same with the states. It's important to actually have district authority which get their taxes and rule themselves. While restricting state authority to governor with few policy making powers. And US is more robust nothing will happen to it. The term limit will keep the rogue elements in check. And don't forget deep state they'll make or break countries imagine what they can do to to preserve theirs. So let's say Mr Malhotra is wrong about US not presidential system

I'm not sure whether comparing a diverse country like India to a small city-state would do justice. If we have an authoritarian set-up or even a presidential system, many smaller ethno-linguistic groups would feel neglected and probably end up revolting against the central government.
yeah but a who do u think is more capable of taking this country forward someone who is very good at running this country or some one elected by giving money and free stuff for their vote if someone who isn't well educated becomes a leader like Rahul Gandhi who dont know jack about running a country what will u do then when he sells India to China by little by little
In india democracy exist Yes Because without democracy survival of india is not possible Because like many languages and religion The condition which i see now That yes there are other parties fighting in election But the one party is too strong other doesn't even have chance
Thanks for sharing different narratives from across India. As an Indian born in Britain, I can honestly say I'm astounded by the level of thinking in modern India. It might be worth questioning when British Indians will start returning to their roots in India 😂 Bharat mata ki jai!
Reform is natural...you can't keep dragging a system which you didn't decide and was brainwashed to follow. Democracy is never beneficial for this large population... democracy is like a Mirage for the general public, which makes them think that they have power but they don't
Yogi can look after day-to-day running of country and President can make long-term strategic decisions. This was what Chatrapati Shivaji did. He ruled the country on the advice of pradhana amathya/ prime minister. This is dharmic as well.

Democracies in a place like India with so many religions, languages, and cultures create a system of perpetual stagnation. The current reality of our world is one of rapid change. In order to be adaptive to these changes a country needs to sometimes act fast and be resolute. However, in India, due to size and competing interests, those changes sometimes take years to make and even when the changes take place, they often are too late.
For country like India, democracy is not good. Need people wall fare oriented authoritarian one party / organisation to govern the country. Think differently, Chinese CCP pull out 1.5 billion people out of poverty. No foreign power can interfere in China. No separetist have strong gound in China. Now they are prominent in business, innovation, geopolitics, socio-economic development. India is a diverse country, khalisthanists,muslims,christian, left etc want to break India because there are fault line in politics. Foreign power, ngo interfere here. Corruption and misuse of law making India weak from inside in every aspects. Easy protest here and there funded from enemy. And so on...
Been watching the clips of this interview, and I find Malhotra's points of view thought provoking. One person i would love you to have in your podcast is Vandana Shiva. Hope someday you can sit and talk with that amazing woman.
i agree with rajeev with all the pros of a presidential system like a stable governent but the con is that 50% of the vote will come from one particular region 😢 and thats the reason in our constituent assembly choose a parliamentary system. Any ways there is a middle path to it which is french semi presidental system
I disagree with what the speaker says. His argument is correct that no company is run by democracy, however, we cannot directly compare a company with a nation. Simply because the scale and complexity of a nation far exceeds any company. Further, the vision of a company is mostly to make profits. Company's sole motive is not towards security and growth of it's employees. Therefore the comparison itself is inaccurate. Going by his reasoning Britishers were also good as they were educated and more qualified than most Indians. What democracy provides is the power in the hands of people who have to be governed. The people can have a say in selecting who is going to rule or govern them. This provides a balance of power, otherwise the citizens will be left at the mercy of the king.
All newly awakened historians would not be here had earlier leaders thought the same ... What a time has come! People are supporting and running towards dictatorship .... democracy haunts those who cant see all the sections of society getting their rights today .....before moving towards dictatorship just see what is happening in Afghanistan, pakistan, china , russia .... Ranveer you surely has stooped to such a low promotion of a particular party....
@@bapparawal2457 To clarify, as Chavda said, Multi party system results in lack of power concentration and thus we cannot take quick decisions like China for example, If you find any other way to eliminate this issue, I am fine with it.
You might want to try a two body Parliament where one body has an equal number of members from each state and the other would be based on the population of the state.
@@SidFredrickson Maybe, I just want a system which has a good balance between autocracy & democracy because with the current system, opposition parties oppose all types of development just for votes
India is really big 1.4 billion people. Having 1 powerful leader for that seems to much. Having multiple more powerful local leaders is better. It’s hard to run country competently if it’s too big. That was how USA was set up they gave the sub national states a lot of power. India is needed as a counter to China and Pakistan hopefully both those states dissolve ie Tibet becomes independent buffer state. Then there will be less fear in India becoming like eu collection of strong states rather then strong central government.
India in the past lost out to invaders when it went through cycles of regional kingdoms without a strong centralised empire. The invaders could easily play one kingdom against the other and bingo. Devolution of power to states (like in the USA, possible because homogenous society) sounds democratic but for me personally is a scary thought, considering our history.
Chatrapati and Netaji are history. However Mr Modi is just great enough to clear the cobwebs and many messed up Indians fed with colonial mindsets. Many gave daft idea about freedom and democracy including most in the opposition. Freedom without accountability and responsibility is anarchy.
India and the US are not democracies, they are democratic republics.That’s an important distinction. This form of government is more stable than a dictatorship due to successorship issues.
Once you find a good leader, stick with him atleast for 15 to 20 years.... This will really help the nation and economy... And i think modi is that good leader... The commitments which this govt have made are mostly fulfilled or is in the process of getting done...(except that 15 lakhs if you're crying for it😜😅)
The current govt is good at executing and fast tracking progress. But they are not that great at policy making which I feel the opposition is good at. The right mix would be a little bit of both.
Even days:-. India is mother of democracy Ods days:- democracy is not indian And yup we are also colonized by aryans we need to recover ourself from that and we should accept our buddhist route
Socrates was against common democracy, he implied rightly so that someone who doesn't understand the policies is not capable to choose the enactors, he proposed Intellectual Democracy, in which farmers run Agriculture ministry, Soldiers run defense ministry, traders run economic ministry etc but he was arrested, put to vote for death and killed by majority.😂
@@ieatmauriceforbreakfast I don't follow any of his policies, that's what your mind has been catered to, If you like soamesones one good idea, you have to accept their bad ones too... That's why people are labelled on behalf of their opinion. Each and every system has flaws, we trade efficiency for quote unquote perception of freedom, but has humans we evolve, why not evolve this drag into something more efficient system, eg intellectual democracy sounds hard to implement, but definitely appeals way more to me
Yes, I think for population of 1.4b people, system like china, 1 party system like CCP is best. Look at the efficiency of 1 party system of china, they took out 1.4b people from property in just 3 decades. & we still didn't done half of of it in 7 decade
Democracy is the best tool till now, anything other system fails to exist! One leader rule can never be better. Absolutely stupid thinking if you think President rule is better. Shame on Ranveer, he kept mum!
Democracy today has evolved compared to what it was in 90's, which in turn was better than 19th century democracy. What Rajiv ji suggesting will destroy all the effort of improvement we have made since independence. What we have currently a system which lack accountability from bottom up, if a clerk of IAS is sitting on a file and asking for bribe there is no mechanism which will question him for not doing it's duty. Dictator could work in a city state like Singapore but not in India due her sheer size and diversity. Instead of changing elective branch we need serious change in judicial and administrative system. There is zero accountability in judiciary, how could a system where decision of higher branch is pole opposite of lower branch is still in practice without any change? Similarly we should abolish IAS and IPS because just like ICS they work for their masters but not common man
If this person is right than we don't need freedom from Britishers, they are the best administrators. These kind of Indians belittle our freedom fighters.

@@expressnigga and who do you think Genghis Khan was? Genghis Khan used to butcher villages in a go. Ashoka’s Kalinga expedition was nothing in front of the Mongol’s brutalities.
Spot on. We need educated technical experts like Dr. S Jaishankar leading the various ministries of the country, not politicians who only focus on winning elections & don't have any knowledge nor they can see the bigger picture or give a damn about the long term growth of the country. They only want short term result. The reason why China today is so ahead of India & 2nd largest economy almost going toe to toe with USA is because they traded their democracy with development. Even if it's a dictatorship, it's a development oriented dictatorship, they can take decisions which democracies cannot. They don't have foreign interference in their internal matters. They can deal with separatist elements in their country with a iron fist, the separatists can't use the constitution as a shield like they do in India. They can target specific industries & focus on their growth without worrying about the laws. The government gives their local manufacturers advantage over foreign players. They can even do illegal activities like buying US tech from blackmarket & reverse engineering it & spying on other countries without any legal problems. Theres a stable government in China whereas in India government can be overthrown any time if the MLA/MPs switch sides. Anyone want to set business in China there's no redtapism like India, it's quick decision. China has uniform civil code , not like India where different rules apply to different castes,religions & areas. They can embrace their ancient Chinese culture & use it as soft power across the world whereas we in India don't respect our own culture, we want to be a cheap copy of the west.
Thats an amazing topic, and I really liked his idea of democracy and Modi being President. It brings goosebumps what Modi could achieve for this country if he's the President of India.
One needs both, left and right wings to fly simultaneously. Guys like this should be in the think tank of policy making for prosperous and strong BHARAT.
Democracy will work when everyone who is voting is knowledgeable & wise and the leader's love the nation is impeccable and exceptional . In the sense of today's mindless voting allowed by the existing system, we are spinning into mayhem some day. Democracy should evolve from bottom up to choose it's leaders as against party choose leaders and pump money to make them the leader. We should also learn to restrict the scope of people to vote on what can actually understand. Sarve Jana Sukhino Bavantu
Presidential system was discussed during 1980_81 during Indira Gandhi period, if I remember well,it was Barrister A R Antulay who openly addressed in public meetings but he was told to.keep quiet later
Wonderful. I camt agree more with you. We really need presidential rule, so to say, for 20-30 years to take us to a level when we underdtand and apprecoate democracy..
Modi should become president and bring good governance..ASAP..and make India strong and Developed Nation..we need to set the country in a right track...This requires a stable long term patriotic leader
Sorry, but a presidential system works (and even then, imperfectly) in a two-party system but would be untenable in a multi-party system like in India, and one especially in which local or state parties are dominant. This is because a President will still require a majority in parliament to pass laws and bills. A presidential system cannot even guarantee that in a two-party system, e.g., what's going on presently in the US, and will usher utter chaos in a multi-party system. A parliamentary system, however imperfect, at least guarantees that the Prime Minister has majority support in parliament, i.e., someone cannot become PM without the support of a majority in parliament.

I'm not sure whether comparing a diverse country like India to a small city-state would do justice. If we have an authoritarian set-up or even a presidential system, many smaller ethno-linguistic groups would feel neglected and probably end up revolting against the central government.
yeah but a who do u think is more capable of taking this country forward someone who is very good at running this country or some one elected by giving money and free stuff for their vote if someone who isn't well educated becomes a leader like Rahul Gandhi who dont know jack about running a country what will u do then when he sells India to China by little by little
In india democracy exist
Yes
Because without democracy survival of india is not possible
Because like many languages and religion
The condition which i see now
That yes there are other parties fighting in election
But the one party is too strong other doesn't even have chance
That's when we will need to bring out the big guns. Really big ones.
@@namankulshrestha5373 chance to do what sell this country all over again
I'm pretty sure authoritarian set up would be able to deal with any kind of revolts more efficiently than a democratic set up would ever be able to😁
Thanks for sharing different narratives from across India. As an Indian born in Britain, I can honestly say I'm astounded by the level of thinking in modern India. It might be worth questioning when British Indians will start returning to their roots in India 😂 Bharat mata ki jai!
The irony is that he is talking against democracy being in democracy ❤😂... Carry on Sir
Reform is natural...you can't keep dragging a system which you didn't decide and was brainwashed to follow. Democracy is never beneficial for this large population... democracy is like a Mirage for the general public, which makes them think that they have power but they don't
Even that is democracy. But he is true though
Maybe you don't know what democracy is. It's ugly
Yogi adityanath as PM and Modi as President. This combo could be 🔥
Don't give me hopes 🌝
Yogi can look after day-to-day running of country and President can make long-term strategic decisions.
This was what Chatrapati Shivaji did. He ruled the country on the advice of pradhana amathya/ prime minister. This is dharmic as well.
Let's make him President! Bingo!!
If Narendra Modi becomes President after he turns 75 years.
President should have more power 💪 like Russia or China 😎
We need to move from democracy of UK to USA 🤟
That's why I think democracy sucks but Modi could use this power to attack Pakistan like Putin or XI ?😂
Choosing leaders via democracy is bloodshed free.
Where this guy comes from, he doesn't have minimum civics knowledge. Being in democratic country, he is advocating dictatorship and comments section is absolutely lethargic.
Same person who was with Nityanand talking about a business plan and asking Bill Gates to offer billions for it!😭
this man is so sharp for his age..interesting
US is a Republic not a Democracy. India is a Democracy not a Republic. However India celebrates Republic Day 😊
Democracy is the best bet we have for India's future.
The guest is giving the example of corporate where one individual can take all decisions, which rarely happens. Yes Mukesh Ambani will be accountable for many decisions at Reliance, but he has to talk to other major shareholders and seek counsel. One person can't know everything and anything and it would be foolish to assume so, no matter who's at the helm.
Jai shree ram 🚩 Jai modi ji 🙏
Democracies in a place like India with so many religions, languages, and cultures create a system of perpetual stagnation. The current reality of our world is one of rapid change. In order to be adaptive to these changes a country needs to sometimes act fast and be resolute. However, in India, due to size and competing interests, those changes sometimes take years to make and even when the changes take place, they often are too late.
For country like India, democracy is not good. Need people wall fare oriented authoritarian one party / organisation to govern the country. Think differently, Chinese CCP pull out 1.5 billion people out of poverty. No foreign power can interfere in China. No separetist have strong gound in China. Now they are prominent in business, innovation, geopolitics, socio-economic development. India is a diverse country, khalisthanists,muslims,christian, left etc want to break India because there are fault line in politics. Foreign power, ngo interfere here. Corruption and misuse of law making India weak from inside in every aspects. Easy protest here and there funded from enemy. And so on...
China has 1.4 billion population, how did they brought 1.5 billion people out of poverty?
Assembly elections waste of money and save people money more and we can save India from like Kerala Bengal areas
Been watching the clips of this interview, and I find Malhotra's points of view thought provoking. One person i would love you to have in your podcast is Vandana Shiva. Hope someday you can sit and talk with that amazing woman.
Shri Narendra Modi as President perfect 👌 Choice
Great SHOW 👍
Very Informative and educational
Bravo 👏
IT IS OUR NECESSITY!! WE NEED A PRESIDENT RULE FOR ATLEAST 20 YEATS TO COME!
What if the President is bad?

Very nice. Thanks Malhotraji🙏
i agree with rajeev with all the pros of a presidential system like a stable governent but the con is that 50% of the vote will come from one particular region 😢 and thats the reason in our constituent assembly choose a parliamentary system. Any ways there is a middle path to it which is french semi presidental system
I disagree with what the speaker says. His argument is correct that no company is run by democracy, however, we cannot directly compare a company with a nation. Simply because the scale and complexity of a nation far exceeds any company. Further, the vision of a company is mostly to make profits. Company's sole motive is not towards security and growth of it's employees. Therefore the comparison itself is inaccurate.
Going by his reasoning Britishers were also good as they were educated and more qualified than most Indians.
What democracy provides is the power in the hands of people who have to be governed. The people can have a say in selecting who is going to rule or govern them. This provides a balance of power, otherwise the citizens will be left at the mercy of the king.
All newly awakened historians would not be here had earlier leaders thought the same ...
What a time has come! People are supporting and running towards dictatorship .... democracy haunts those who cant see all the sections of society getting their rights today .....before moving towards dictatorship just see what is happening in Afghanistan, pakistan, china , russia ....
Ranveer you surely has stooped to such a low promotion of a particular party....
India will be better with a two party system like US
Even US is not good because of 2 party system. What are you guys smoking. Atleast look at their condition
No it's actually worse thing can be possible
@@bapparawal2457 To clarify, as Chavda said, Multi party system results in lack of power concentration and thus we cannot take quick decisions like China for example, If you find any other way to eliminate this issue, I am fine with it.
You might want to try a two body Parliament where one body has an equal number of members from each state and the other would be based on the population of the state.
@@SidFredrickson Maybe, I just want a system which has a good balance between autocracy & democracy because with the current system, opposition parties oppose all types of development just for votes
BJP till 2100..
Till eternity
the power he is mentioning is ability to move force, crpf etc. and physically crush opponents
India is really big 1.4 billion people. Having 1 powerful leader for that seems to much. Having multiple more powerful local leaders is better. It’s hard to run country competently if it’s too big. That was how USA was set up they gave the sub national states a lot of power. India is needed as a counter to China and Pakistan hopefully both those states dissolve ie Tibet becomes independent buffer state. Then there will be less fear in India becoming like eu collection of strong states rather then strong central government.
India in the past lost out to invaders when it went through cycles of regional kingdoms without a strong centralised empire. The invaders could easily play one kingdom against the other and bingo.
Devolution of power to states (like in the USA, possible because homogenous society) sounds democratic but for me personally is a scary thought, considering our history.
Rajiv Ji is a Gem, Period
Chatrapati and Netaji are history. However Mr Modi is just great enough to clear the cobwebs and many messed up Indians fed with colonial mindsets. Many gave daft idea about freedom and democracy including most in the opposition. Freedom without accountability and responsibility is anarchy.
India and the US are not democracies, they are democratic republics.That’s an important distinction. This form of government is more stable than a dictatorship due to successorship issues.
Rajiv Malhotra 🔥🔥🔥
Love from Tamilnadu ji 🙏😇🔱🚩🚩🚩
INDIA needs a strong PRESIDENT and our Present PM MODIJI is the perfect person for this POST, regardless of what ever party PM belongs to.
Pm ka sara power president ko dena chahiye jesa America France Russia jesa

Rajiv Malhotra is such an amazing man.. everyone should read his books
Thanks and best regards, all the best!
Once you find a good leader, stick with him atleast for 15 to 20 years.... This will really help the nation and economy...
And i think modi is that good leader...
The commitments which this govt have made are mostly fulfilled or is in the process of getting done...(except that 15 lakhs if you're crying for it😜😅)
He never promised 15 lakh ..
He said the amount of kala dhan is swiss bank is so much that every person can get 1500000.
The current govt is good at executing and fast tracking progress. But they are not that great at policy making which I feel the opposition is good at. The right mix would be a little bit of both.
Even days:-. India is mother of democracy
Ods days:- democracy is not indian
And yup we are also colonized by aryans we need to recover ourself from that and we should accept our buddhist route
this episode is something else, really amazing
🙌Yes the president system is best for india❤🔥
This old guy is speaking nonsense. Democracy is not efficient, there is a constant struggle, but its the better way to keep a balance.
He wants to bring back old Vedic system in politics ??? Okay. Is it Monarchy , then ??? Who will be the king , then ???
Socrates was against common democracy, he implied rightly so that someone who doesn't understand the policies is not capable to choose the enactors, he proposed Intellectual Democracy, in which farmers run Agriculture ministry, Soldiers run defense ministry, traders run economic ministry etc but he was arrested, put to vote for death and killed by majority.😂
RUSSIA AND CHINA MONARCH AND THEYY ARE BETTER IN ECONOMY AND GROWTH THAN WHOLE EUROPE AND INDIA
@@01tj007 what other philosophies from Socrates do you follow in life?
@@ieatmauriceforbreakfast I don't follow any of his policies, that's what your mind has been catered to, If you like soamesones one good idea, you have to accept their bad ones too... That's why people are labelled on behalf of their opinion. Each and every system has flaws, we trade efficiency for quote unquote perception of freedom, but has humans we evolve, why not evolve this drag into something more efficient system, eg intellectual democracy sounds hard to implement, but definitely appeals way more to me
Yes, I think for population of 1.4b people, system like china, 1 party system like CCP is best.
Look at the efficiency of 1 party system of china, they took out 1.4b people from property in just 3 decades.
& we still didn't done half of of it in 7 decade
India is a unique democracy where Judges elected themselves and call themselves as guardians of law. The power of judiciary is not with the people.
Hmmm, interesting and thought provoking indeed

India is going back to stone ages 👍gd for us ☺
Absolutely Right I'm agree with him.
Dude!! Now Modi supporter will go crazy.
😂😂 I don't believe as long citizens of India are voting for Modi it's all that
Democracy is the best tool till now, anything other system fails to exist! One leader rule can never be better. Absolutely stupid thinking if you think President rule is better. Shame on Ranveer, he kept mum!
Democracy today has evolved compared to what it was in 90's, which in turn was better than 19th century democracy. What Rajiv ji suggesting will destroy all the effort of improvement we have made since independence. What we have currently a system which lack accountability from bottom up, if a clerk of IAS is sitting on a file and asking for bribe there is no mechanism which will question him for not doing it's duty.
Dictator could work in a city state like Singapore but not in India due her sheer size and diversity.
Instead of changing elective branch we need serious change in judicial and administrative system.
There is zero accountability in judiciary, how could a system where decision of higher branch is pole opposite of lower branch is still in practice without any change? Similarly we should abolish IAS and IPS because just like ICS they work for their masters but not common man
Let's abolish everything. We'll have jungle raj - happy?
If this person is right than we don't need freedom from Britishers, they are the best administrators. These kind of Indians belittle our freedom fighters.

Modi ji such a visionary leader 🚩♥️🇮🇳
Yes Right. ❤
All this man says I support it from my bottom of heart..
Spot on. We need educated technical experts like Dr. S Jaishankar leading the various ministries of the country, not politicians who only focus on winning elections & don't have any knowledge nor they can see the bigger picture or give a damn about the long term growth of the country. They only want short term result.
The reason why China today is so ahead of India & 2nd largest economy almost going toe to toe with USA is because they traded their democracy with development. Even if it's a dictatorship, it's a development oriented dictatorship, they can take decisions which democracies cannot. They don't have foreign interference in their internal matters. They can deal with separatist elements in their country with a iron fist, the separatists can't use the constitution as a shield like they do in India. They can target specific industries & focus on their growth without worrying about the laws. The government gives their local manufacturers advantage over foreign players. They can even do illegal activities like buying US tech from blackmarket & reverse engineering it & spying on other countries without any legal problems. Theres a stable government in China whereas in India government can be overthrown any time if the MLA/MPs switch sides. Anyone want to set business in China there's no redtapism like India, it's quick decision. China has uniform civil code , not like India where different rules apply to different castes,religions & areas. They can embrace their ancient Chinese culture & use it as soft power across the world whereas we in India don't respect our own culture, we want to be a cheap copy of the west.
In a nutshell just give all power to Mr Malhotra and let him decide for all us lesser people😂
Yeah , if more knowledgeable ones get to decide on what to do , then we should get rid of our FM 1st.
Fantastic
After listening to the logic that Modi can become president, i m like,"OH..."
Modi still has energy and skills for another 5 years. Not utilising his services will be a loss to nation. I agree with presidential system.
Very nice topic❤
Thats an amazing topic, and I really liked his idea of democracy and Modi being President. It brings goosebumps what Modi could achieve for this country if he's the President of India.
Unbeatable combination modiji as president and yogiji as pm and amitji as def and home minister with army conducting polls and state police
It's good to see that your generation is learning from Rajeev sir.
I definitely vouch for his articulation provided our leader has all the needed skills & exclusiveness 🙏🙏🙏
sir there are some cruel kings in the past also.....
One needs both, left and right wings to fly simultaneously. Guys like this should be in the think tank of policy making for prosperous and strong BHARAT.
Spot on 👌🏼
Democracy will work when everyone who is voting is knowledgeable & wise and the leader's love the nation is impeccable and exceptional . In the sense of today's mindless voting allowed by the existing system, we are spinning into mayhem some day.
Democracy should evolve from bottom up to choose it's leaders as against party choose leaders and pump money to make them the leader.
We should also learn to restrict the scope of people to vote on what can actually understand.

Presidential system was discussed during 1980_81 during Indira Gandhi period, if I remember well,it was Barrister A R Antulay who openly addressed in public meetings but he was told to.keep quiet later
Wonderful. I camt agree more with you. We really need presidential rule, so to say, for 20-30 years to take us to a level when we underdtand and apprecoate democracy..
Modi should become president and bring good governance..ASAP..and make India strong and Developed Nation..we need to set the country in a right track...This requires a stable long term patriotic leader
Superb!
Simultaneous Central and State elections is a good place to start with...
These guys don’t even realize they can talk this free because of democracy the same system they want replaced by dictatorship.
abe bewakoof inlogone kaha ki presidential type democracy chahiye america jaisa dictatorship nai
Sorry, but a presidential system works (and even then, imperfectly) in a two-party system but would be untenable in a multi-party system like in India, and one especially in which local or state parties are dominant. This is because a President will still require a majority in parliament to pass laws and bills. A presidential system cannot even guarantee that in a two-party system, e.g., what's going on presently in the US, and will usher utter chaos in a multi-party system. A parliamentary system, however imperfect, at least guarantees that the Prime Minister has majority support in parliament, i.e., someone cannot become PM without the support of a majority in parliament.
