Democracy (Urdu: جمہوریت; pronounced jamhooriat) is one of the ideologies and systems upon which Pakistan was sought to be established in 1947 as a nation-state, as envisaged by the leader and founding father of the nation, Muhammad Ali Jinnah. Pakistan constitutionally is a democratic parliamentary republic with its political system based on an elected form of governance. However, in past history there have been deviations from democracy in the form of military coups and political uncertainty.[1] Today Pakistan is the one of the newest functioning democracies since 2008, with the first democratic elections held in 2013 to complete a 5 year term for the first time in its political history.
Its a process, we have been openly democratic more then anything else in our history
We are trying to stamp out corruption and empower the SC to build stronger democratic institutions
All the while india is heading more towards becoming a hindu banana republic where the vice president of the country feels at threat
The country has seven national parties: Bharathiya Janata Party (BJP), Indian National Congress (INC), Communist Party of India (CPI), Communist Party of India (Marxist) (CPI(M)) and Nationalist Congress Party (N C P) Bahujan Samaj Party (B S P) All India Trinamool Congress(TMC)[2] At the level of its states, many regional parties stand for elections to state legislatures, every five years. The Rajya Sabha elections are held every 6 years.
India follows the dual polity system, i.e. a double government which consists of the central authority at the center and states at the periphery. The constitution defines the organization powers and limitations of both central and state governments, and it is well-recognized, rigid and considered supreme; i.e. laws of the nation must conform to it.
The Indian constitution provides for an independent judiciary, which is headed by the Supreme Court. The court's mandate is to protect the constitution, to settle disputes between the central government and the states, to settle inter-state disputes, to nullify any central or state laws that go against the constitution, and to protect the fundamental rights of citizens, issuing writs for their enforcement in cases of violation
Corruption is like hydra. You cut one, two takes it's place. Need some avareness among the people to avoid taking shortcut paths. Go the right way, alas that will remain probably a dream in south asia.We are trying to stamp out corruption and empower the SC to build stronger democratic institutions
Extremism level of what fish sellingSure and its heading towards becoming a hindutva republic, with increasing levels of extremism at state level. Secular india is dying a dogs death

Touche
Btw on that note you also have admit Indians still cannot boast about all inclusiveness while pointing the finger at others as it often happens on this subject matter, Because both the posts of the president and the VP are constitutional appointees that does not require a referendum of the people, In short political posts
So lets wait till India elects a prime minister from a minority community or a Dalit to celebrate the maturity of it's electorate
Kovind was born in Paraukh village in the Kanpur Dehat district, Uttar Pradesh.[6][7] His father Maikulal was a landless Kori (a Dalitweaving community) who ran a small shop to support his family. He was the youngest of five brothers and two sisters. He was born in a mud hut, which eventually collapsed. He was only five when his mother died of burns when their thatched dwelling caught fire. Kovind later donated the land to the communitySo lets wait till India elects a prime minister from a minority community or a Dalit to celebrate the maturity of it's electorate
Sometimes you also have to be good enough and popular enough among the masses to get voted.
Cheers, Doc

Former Vice President of India Mohammad Hamid Ansari
A top retiring Indian official embarrassed Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Hindu nationalist government by saying Muslims were feeling insecure under his rule following attacks on them by Hindu hardliners on mere suspicion that they were killing cows considered holy by majority Hindus.
In an interview with state-run Rajya Sabha television channel broadcast Thursday, Hamid Ansari said intolerance was growing in India with Hindu hardliners questioning the nationalism of Muslims who comprise nearly 14 percent of India's 1.3 billion people.
Ansari, a Muslim, ended his second five-year term as India's vice-president, a ceremonial position, on Thursday.
He said he had conveyed his concerns to Modi and some of his ministers.
Ansari was a career diplomat before taking up the constitutional position.

This is the VICE PRESIDENT of India saying india is becoming a hindutva republic
Hmmm.. So if he did include Christians, Who seems to be the next largest religious group facing threats from the right wing Hindu's.. Would you still say he lost credibility cos then he will be only speaking behalf of Abrahamic religions ?
I would say the message is lost if you keep looking at it through the prism of segregation
