Book: Indian Polity by M. Laxmikanth
Key instruments of political representation, aggregating diverse interests into coherent programs. They contest elections, form governments, and shape policy agendas. The Constitution and Representation of the People Act regulate party registration, but internal democracy largely depends on party constitutions. India’s multi-party system fosters diversity but also fragmentation and coalition politics. Parties receive recognition from the Election Commission, with “national” or “state” party status based on vote share and seat thresholds. Intra-party factionalism, dynastic leadership, and opaque funding hamper genuine democracy. Reforms like transparent financing and internal elections remain urgent for more robust, ideologically driven parties in India’s evolving polity.
