India needs some kind of constitutional amendment immediately. Tragedy is that, there seems to be no consensus building up for that. It needs to move to Presidential form of government, cabinet minister should not be required to be a sitting MP. The moment the perk of possibility of becoming a cabinet minister is there, you can not stop horse trading in a country where corruption is socially accepted. (India’s standing in the list of most corrupt country is the proof of this). A minister should be a non MP whose appointment should be ratified by a specialized parliamentary committee like the US. This is the very basic thing to have a functioning democracy. There some other institution which needs to be strengthened like judiciary, civil society, law enforcement agencies etc. Otherwise things will get worse only. While country’s “fate deciders” argue and bargain amongst themselves innocent people will continue to be killed by Maoist barbarians in rural India.
