What Is the Real Meaning of Good Governance?
As India continues to be an underdeveloped country, it is observed that people who vote in Indian elections are mostly poor and uneducated.
As a result, illiterate politicians or those with serious criminal records (history-sheeters) get elected and act as dictators in a democracy. These politicians are supported by unskilled bureaucrats. People of India are almost dying under the misrule of such politicians and bureaucrats.
To overcome this persisting problem, there is an immediate need to change the Indian political and administrative systems.
