I think you guys are not being fair to democracy and Indian voters. Just because you do not like the outcome, you critisize the maturity of Indian voters. They have proved themselves by defeating bad governmentsat the state level and at the centre by democratic process.
It should be appreciated that Indian voters have consistently elected secular governments and rejecting hardcore Hindutva people like Modi. Shikh PM , Christian super PM, Dalit CMs and host of Muslim Cabinet ministers/CJ etc are proof of voter maturity.
AAP is a fraud party which talks big because they know they will never assume power.
I doubt about maturity of indian voters . Why do they vote for regional parties in parliament election? Regional parties like SP/BSP/DMK/AIDMK/TDP/BJD/RJD-LALLU / JDU ..... ETC.. should not be voted for parliament election . You talk about maturity of india voters .. they are sold by liquor , money and now by food security bill ...
Indian electorate, Mature? Are you sure you don't want to retract this statement? If they had been mature, they wouldn't have elected Currupt, High handed, Communal, Uneducated, and goon Netas since the Independence. Ever heard of Lalu Prasad Yadav, Mulayam Singh, Thakreys, and the likes? There are many more, but they hog the list and limelight. They have been elected, not once, but many a times by your so-called 'Mature' electorate.
When a goon like Raja Bhaiya gets more seats and Power using their high handedness, muscle power, and money, then your mature junta deserve very much of what's going on in the dirty politics of India. When the ones that divide people on the race, region, and caste get selected, this very muture junta deserve whatever is wrong with the system.
I don't have the stats, but roughly speaking, 50% of the folks don't vote, young voters don't care, and educated people are all busy having a great time on the voting 'holiday'. How can you seek the change in the system? First, change people's mindset, make them worthy of asking for the change, have an educated and aware society. Then and only then the change prevails. But, that's a wish list, and a daydreaming - sadly even after 66 years of independance.
Congress, despite of so many scandals and curruption, I am sure will come back. That's the irony of India. This very Party, having so many bad press and PR (for all the right reasons) will sure bounce back. How? You ask your 'Mature' electorate.
What is the choice then? Unfortunately, I don't know. Neither does the 'aam aadmi'. May be, vote for the new AAP. Others have looted for the last 66 years, so give them a chance as well. We are anyway fond of being robbed day in and night. AAP at the very worst could cement our beliefs further. There won't be any suprises, trust me.
Change is imminant, but unfortunately for India Change implies getting an 'old Desi Daroo in a new bottle and flavour'. General public was drunk before and will always be.
Call me a cynic, but you show me something positive in Indian Politics and System, and I will not even wink before taking my views back. It is a flawed democracy in limbo.
