Democracy in India and in Pakistan

Democracy in India and in Pakistan.

Dalip Singh Wasan, Advocate.

The people of India adopted democracy in 1952-53 and they are proud of the fact that they are carrying on his democracy during he last six decades when their neighbour Pakistan couldnot maintain democracy and the people of Pakistan have to face military rule time and again The people of India could declare that they are the largest democracy in the world, when their counterpart Pakistan could no boast like this. Therefore, we the people of India can declare that we are better placed in democracy and the democracy established in Pakistan remains at stake and as and when some elected people rule the country, they too function under the military pressures. They are not independent and as and when there is some weakness, the military takes over the charge without any permission from the civil authorities.

In 1947 when Pakistan was being established so many Muslims living in India were not agreeing for the establishment of Pakistan because they were of the view that this small country would not progress. The people who were demanding Pakistan were not so competent people who could run the administration of a country. But the British who were leaving Hindustan thought it better to partition this Hindustan so that these two countries could never establish peace. The creation of Pakistan was a conspiracy and that conspiracy turned out successful because since this partition, both these countries could not live in peace and they are at war, sometime in direct war and sometime they are busy in indirect war. It is on record that they are fighting and out of these fights one other country Bangladesh came into being. There is a Kashmir problems and that problems could not be solved and this Kashmir had been divided into two parts, one is held by Pakistan and the other is with the government of India. What shall be the future of this Kashmir, none on earth can give a suitable reply and making this Kashmir as a base, he terrorists from Pakistan side are spreading throughout in the whole of India.

In spite of all these ill efforts from Pakistan side, the people of Pakistan could not shake the Indian democracy. The people of India are still carrying out with democracy and the people of Pakistan are not in a position to establish democracy in Pakistan. The military authorities are always having an eye on the civil administration and as and when they get an opportunity, they come forward and occupy all seats of power. Military rule is no equal to democracy, but here we see the people who did not opt for Pakistan in 1947 were feeling better and they are proud of the fact that they had been living in a democracy throughout since the partition. What is the future of Pakistan, none could answer
