It was only a matter of time before we saw the formation of the political parties in the country. Few notable individuals like Mahatma Gandhi, Subash Chandra Bose, and B. R. Ambedkar gave a new meaning to the Indian political system.
The Indian political system was established during British rule in the early 1920s-30s. Our freedom fighters decided to take it up themselves and free the country from the shackles of the British Raj.
This movement gave birth to the rise of political parties in India.
Any political party, for that matter, has its own duties and responsibilities to do for society. They are the pillars of any democratic country and are elected by the citizens of that country. When they want to be elected, they need to work for the benefit of society. They should be willing to serve people. The political parties reflect on the fundamental divisions that constantly happen in the community.
The main function of a political party is to contest the election, bring new policies and programmes, start new laws, the party that has won the election forms the ruling party and they share the opinions of the public.
No democratic country in the world can survive without a political party. Their roles and duties are paramount for the smooth functioning of a nation. The elected representatives are mainly responsible for ensuring that the needs of their people are met.
A political party in a democratic can form the party and abide by the country’s laws. They do not have any limitations. China has a one-party system, which may not suit any democratic country.
The United States of America has a two-party system, and so does the United Kingdom. However, India has several parties that can be a good thing in one way for a multicultural and diverse nation like ours.
