Does real Democracy prevails in India?

India is a democratic, secular, socialist, republic. This I remember studying in my third grade history class. When I think today how true it actually was/is, I am not sure.

A democracy does not mean merely having periodical elections where everybody has a right to vote. Democracy means people really participating in various public affairs and being the important part of the system but in today’s world, common people are the only ones who are left out of the system. They have no voice in the rule, cannot express their rights fully and let alone, them deciding on governmental policies. With microscopic lenses, I am trying to figure out where democracy applies in India but to vein.

When people are suppressed by the corrupt administrators, or should be called economic blackholes, who should the people turn up to? When everyone in the hierarchy is either corrupt or turned into one by the top command, and when good people who don’t fit in this structure are thrown out, what options do we have? We are left out with options but to take matter in our own hands.

when government fails, we begin. There is an imminent need for the thoughtful and honest youngsters to start a bloodless, or if needed bloody, revolution to stamp out the evil dictators out of power and lead a clean, envisioned and pro-poor government.

Yes, Revolution is the key.
