  2. I sending my views about our Parliament that Bicameral systemis not fit for our democracy. Suppose to be Lok-shabha passed a essential bills in house with majority,but another house dropped it in dustbin. How can we established the needs of our country when our specific mandate makes a majority government.
    We should be changed our system of the Parliament. The boths house have to governance a board of administrator,thouse who are empowered by the Constitution & also his Excellency the President of India.That administration decided the crucial matter within the stipulated period,only then we becomes a strong parliament.

  3. Decentrelized system is the more apropriate in which state goverenment should be cancled and direct district authority has power for making local laws so that can satisfy each localized need. and one suprime comand with centrel level and it should has malitary power for protact and defance our national geography and frome foreighn attacs. this can be possible only when party system is cancaled first
