Mr. Arun Shourie very rigthly says that there is less of Bharat or India in this election process. what one sees is the mushrooming refional parties or tribal parties if we may say so. They only espouse the cause of local issues at the cost of the national issues.It is time we ban regional parrties and bring some legislation to ensure that disgruntled elements and criminals are not allowed from floating small parties. this is imperative as our electorate largely belong to the semi literate group which get swayed whenever a local goon or neta floats a party and espouses local burning issues. And once they get elected the issues are conveniently forgotten by the these eleted goons. If we do not have have a check on these mushrooming splinter groups in the coming years we will become a tribal nation. One wonders if we are fit for democracy.
