Patrick French argues in favour of the motion "Democracy is India's Achilles' heel" at the Intelligence Squared debate on 27th September 2011 at the Royal Geographical Society.
We Indians can't argue. He is stating facts.
Siddharth Arjun sorry but he is not stating facts instead he is just exaggerating them.
I don't think so...
To say that it fails on every count is to say that it doesn't function.
It does, in every way since 1947
Also, there is no proof to show bias of the EC, hence you can't say that our democracy fails to 'function'
You cannot blame 'Indian democracy' (there is no such thing). India is a constitutional republic.
You cannot blame the system for the people that are running it.
Also, India is a country with 1.2 billion people, and u must understand it is difficult to control all of them
Aniruddha it is difficult to control only in a dumb democratic system . We need one party system . Just watch and learn from china . IMO there should be a test before each election concerning the recent events which has happened in the country and in last few years. Only those who pass the test should be allowed to vote . Illiterate people should not be allowed as their vote can be bought for as low as the cost of one time meal .Socrates was also critical of the kind of democracy we follow in india . Only knowledgeable and people having a certain level of understanding of the facts should be allowed to vote
that's the reason we have been colonized for centuries for this defeatist mindset....do you think their countries are perfect? and if we state the facts about that they are gonna take it as easily like you
@@tstanmoysamanta
Dumbfuck their countries are closer to perfection than ours.
Chinese autocracy continues to outperform Indian democracy in almost every field.
Indians consider themselves to be one of the smartest races on earth. Indians must ask themselves why？
Economic policy has nothing to do with political form of government. Indian Army general became our leader What will change?

Lol you're dumb af. India is an absolute shithole compared to China.
Mr. Zackry pity you
As an Indian, its not easy to digest. But Patrick said it right. He made a pretty good observation and research about Indian political parties. I know every Indian watching this may not be happy about the present state of India and would like to do something for their country IF THEY ARE GIVEN CHANCE. But at present I don't see any.
Now It's ugly
And what do you think of it today ?
And today we struggle to be safe in our homes..
Yet don't wait for a chance. You get stuck in and grab it
India needs military rule at the earliest. All these political parties are absolutely useless. Democracy is beneficial only for politicians.
Why do India's neighbors look towards India? Is it because of their superb governance? Or because of their economic development? Capitalism does not require democracy - Thailand and Singapore can attest to that.
India is huge like continent, it's stupid to compare small Singapore with india
Anuj Yadav India is huge my ass lol
@La Vie En Rose population is almost same. China is ageing population India will overtake China in population very soon
@John Buffalo I am 97 Anglos never ruled India.. There is no such thing as British rule. Before the US bombed the Japanese, the INA was already flexing its muscles and the independence was grabbed in 1943 with military action, not by peaceful means. 21 October 1943 was a declaration of India's independence and it took British a few more years to surrender their control and leave. We believe wrongly that the British gave us freedom. The British archive proves that they were very scared of uprising of Indian army people who were returning from WW2 and were armed, tough, and battle-hardened and Netaji was mobilizing them and was successful in mobilizing them. So the British decided to leave quickly with honour as soon as they could.
And Subhash Chandra Bose never referred to Britishers as "rulers". He simply called them foreign occupiers. Subhash Chandra Bose was the man behind India's freedom from the British occupation, not Gandhi. India took back its freedom by violent means, not peaceful means as taught in history books.
@Mr. Anonymous There's no such thing as British rule. You've misunderstood the history which was not written properly. Subhash Chandra Bose was the actual person responsible for India's freedom from British occupation, not rule because there was none to begin with. Look into the archives. Nowhere it is mentioned that the British ruled. They were simply foreign strangers like Subhash Chandra ji said and that these foreign strangers must be expelled from Indian soil. Subhash ji was determined in his enndeavour and it paid off.
patrick's analysis is perfect and spot on. i respect this person for the study he has done. and i pray My country learns from this.

@@sagarsahu5960 The worst thing to do is blaming others when you can't even manage your own problems.
@Sagar Sahu, its thru ppl like you that I finally understand why India as a nation doesnt lift off like everyone expected her to be. And I m beginning to fear for my beloved nation of Malaysia as I saw so many similarities in our political environment with India. The lack of accountability and false worship of ministers. Not surprising because this land was once a Hindu kingdom and the natives here although now largely Muslims, still retain to a degree some of the influence left behind by ancient Indian traders. You can see this influence in the weddings of the Malays for example. So, it's not surprising when they are also ardent fans of bollywood. And in the political arena, our ministers liked to be praised and be seated on opulent large chairs while the citizens grassroots sat on plastic chairs. Compare this to other far east nations on the conduct of their ministers and you really why democracy is more of a mockery in some countries who really abused it

True. In china even though it is an autocracy where people have little say it is run by intelligent people such as xi jinping who is an engineer. Whereas our country india is run by idiots in the name of democracy. India should be run by educated people such as from IIt or IIM who should be elected by competitive exams rather than being elected by people who cannot even write their own names.
@Gurpreet Singh still not enough to catch up to China. And their growth rate is slow cuz they are already the 2nd largest by nominal and largest by ppp so ofc it would grow slow. In fact that kind of growth at this point is amazing.
@Gurpreet Singh 12% of 100 is 12, 7% of 500 is 35~~~~ go figure :)
@Gurpreet Singh wow
most of the analysis is correct. you forgot about the lack of educatioin, awareness in low income indian voters who take money and alcohol during elections to caste their vote. There are also caste politics which is very toxic. And dangerous communal politics where muslims vote to mukhtar ansari just becoz he is muslim.

Democracy is good...only when 'qualified citizens' have right to vote. The greatest person with integrity, wisdom, and courage will be killed by ignorant mob like what happened to Socrates. Citizens must have basic ability of critical thinking, basic understanding of public issues, and most importantly, high moral integrity. Citizens shall not bribe, or take bribe in any form. Under these conditions, democracy might work for the people. Unfortunately cunning Englishmen who invented and exporting their flawed ideology don't want second world countries to know that. Look at Singapore, look at China, they both practice a certain degree of authoritarianism, but their people thanked the government.
Most of voters are illiterate.sad here
Great analysis 👏👏👏
I am not in favor of democracy
I support authoritarian government with liberal policies
Democracy is the will of the people. People in India don't have high expectations of their leaders. They are okay with corruption, they don't want it to change. They are okay with mediocracy, because they've been told repeatedly that they're lesser. Hence all the flaws. We need to start having higher expectations and personally living up to it.
Stop blaming others
Criminalisation, corruption and nepotism. This guy has got it all right! Wholly agree with him.
Very good reseach by Patrick French. This is how policitians in India now a days!

Good luck

@@Satyamev_Jayate100 Lmao as if it's all sunshine and rainbows with the current government. It only got much worse after 2014. Gosh, how are people so delusional?
It takes time for Democracy to evolve in a Nation like India. India is a land of diverse people with a complicated History. It took U.S almost 150 years to adjust to Democracy and get rid of it's racism and backwardness.
So, How can you expect a Nation whose population is 4 times that of U.S to adjust to Democracy so soon ?
Just another Atheist LOL the US is FAR from getting rid of racism
Yes
It didn't take the US 150 years to "adjust to democracy"; it was democratic from day 1. It only expanded the _demos_ (people) that could vote over the years. India, on the other hand, is far, far away from this though.
Brother, Firstly, US does not have 2 enemies right on top of his head like we do and secondly, Christianity does not have caste system
We are ruined by ourselves.

His years of analysis is just the truth we all already have accepted and living with every day.
From Pakistan, only criminal mafia in politics refers to India as 'Beacon of light' because it suits their profile and agenda.
this is super. this needs to be shared and conveyed largely.
2. Bose was sidelined long ago by these manipulators. I think it's time Indians broke a few popular myths such as "Gandhi led India to freedom". He did not. The British left India not because they became followers of Gandhi's Non-violent philosophy overnight. They dropped the bag and ran away from India because they could no longer count on the loyalty of the Indian Army. Bose had effectively undermined their loyalty during the WW2 and converted them from mercenaries into firebrand patriots.
Its 11 years ago what he said has India improved?
To all people, even Indians, saying that India should ditch democracy, it's the only thing that keeps us together. No democracy = no United India. Ik that at the least south India will secede.
Aditya Namburi I know right?
We should give right to Vote to most uneducated people who will vote for their own religion not to chose an un-curroupt leader who can bring change to India
it will be good if we all make our own separate countries and if they develop it is risk well taken instead of living in this mess. and its not that difficult to keep the country together if there is a determined dictator.
india needs a civil war to throw out the corrupt democratic system . Those whose supporters win will form the new one party system in India
Aditya Namburi who the fuck needs unity when our people are not able to come out of poverty...fuck ur demo
Actually, this democracy is the reason for hatred, discrimination and divide among Indians. Analyse the working structure of this democracy. Every party tries to target specific community and practice communal agendas. It is because of this democracy that the sense of regional and religious identity has surpassed the sense of national identity. Such a big and diverse nation can only survive under communism.
Democracy Comes From Enlightenment In India's Case Our Founding Fathers Who Written The Constitution Were Enlighten But Not The People For Who They Are Writing For.
India is too big to be a democracy
As an Indian, I must say, World knows better than me about the damaged democrazy in my country ! May Mahatma Gandhi ji run my country.
@MY LIFE'S A MEME, not all name ending with Patel are Gujaratis. I would love if Bose is our leader till date.

William might say that countries like Nepal look to India as a beacon of light and it's a nice thought. But he has to rememeber they do so because despite the current corruption in India, it's still a better government than those mentioned in comparison. Why not really give these countries something to aspire to and be the best or close enough?
At 9:05 This is what typically the congress party and subsequently the other parties (inclusing the BJP and the coalitions) have done: whenever a question is asked, start a preposterous specious comparison with PAkistan or other neighbours! Oh so typical! Good Lord Armani!
His analysis only touches the upper level. Caste plays the most important role in all this. It must be discussed too.
There is no sincere effort to eradicate Caste System In India. Instead, all-around efforts are made to retain it or exploit it politically - JUST see exit poll results analysis How caste voted area-wise / caste-wise analysis, etc. Most of the time I came to know the existence of some obscure caste only through these so-called analysis - Hence somewhere politics does not want the caste system to go - In KARNATAKA the present CM ( JUNE 2021 ) exploiting caste cult to blackmail central leadership. I strongly feel the bottom of the pyramid is not a hindrance to the caste system - It is a political system and subsequent exploitation of that cate equation. PRESIDENTIAL FORM OF DEMOCRACY will solve this caste equation as INDIVIDUALS are elected not Party
This was posted 9 years ago. I ask has the situation change since in India? Has it been improve because of people's voice and grievance?
No. Just look at the recent riots in the streets between Hindus and Muslims for the political instability in India. If it wasn't for COVID-19, the situation would have escalated further.
Nope. It won't change anytime soon imo. It would take a cultural revolution like in China for India to rise. The people here are far too blind and emotionally driven to see the truth. They need to get hit hard to see reality.

3. The very name "Bose" scared the shit out of the British and they went to the extent of hiring assassins to get rid of him, the documents of which have been declassified now. Bose was young charismatic and selfless. Naturally, the manipulators saw to it that he was permanently taken away from his people.
Having said that, I'd still maintain Gandhi was a selfless visionary leader with maximum mass appeal, and deserves 1/3rd credit for Independence.
It was said by Clement Attlee that role of Gandhi was minimal. Because of the INA, British could not trust Indian soldiers anymore.
Gandhi did nothing

Democracy,in it's truest sense, means civic participation. As described the real inventors,the Athenians, civilians attended the parliamentary sessions besides periodic voting. Although this is practically not feasible at this stage,we, the citizens of India,have entirely discarded from our civic responsibility to follow,support,criticize or oppose the government. Instead we have begun to choose and favor government which aligns more with our identity in terms of language,religion etc etc. We have knowledge that covers a vast ground on many subjects. But unfortunately, that knowledge is merely acquired by casual browsing which makes it extremely shallow. Politics and economics are two spheres which control a nation's progress and these must be followed in detail to fill up that void we created in our responsibility as citizens. Personally, I believe any form of govt can be good or bad. Monarchy has tyranny at it's evil end. Democracy can end up in mobocracy. It is in the hands of the citizens to direct the govt and restrain it from abusing it's power.
+Darkhorse "Decision concerning people will be taken directly by people and politics has nothing to do with it". As beautiful as it sounds, it is impractical to such an extent that it may happen only in some Utopian land. But, I totally agree that it is the democracy defined in it's truest form. The simple fact is that it's not present in India right now. I really wish to witness your dream of democracy in India but I believe it won't come to India in the next decades. The only logical problem which I see is the massive population. Even if we manage to neutralize difference of financial status,language,religion or caste, the mere size of our population will not allow the rule done by people itself.By either versions of us, India isn't really democratic as most Indians claim to be.
Secondly, when Athens created a governance and named it to be democracy, then it is democracy in it's original sense. To be precise,we can say that democracy itself is the same cock and bull shit. What we have in India can be a modified version of the real democracy which appears to be more feasible with elected representatives but the original meaning where everyone with civic and legal rights must participate is totally lost. Technically, when the people cannot or do not participate, we shouldn't use the term democracy. Maybe we can formulate a new term and God only knows whether it's good or bad.
And finally, the old system of Samitis where we categorized and efficiently worked based on the nature of work we do led to the development of caste system. It's kinda ironic to say that British came in and divided a hundred year old system into different castes. We did it to ourselves. To be correct, samiti system was indeed efficient in a small village or a closed system. We did that mistake by trying to apply it for large empires. At this point, instead of creating a new system, we applied samiti system to the mass group which caste system to manage the mass. Moreoever, these kinda old system cannot be applied to present line of work where we have everything from nanotechnology to robotics to Mars Orbiter Mission. With this extremely diverse field of works, it's pointless to spend money or energy to bring back the old samiti system.

4. Remaining 1/3rd should go to Bose and another 1/3rd to revolutionaries like Bhagat Singh, Bagha Jatin, Masterda, to name just a few.
If we get this history right, we don't see too many visionary, selfless, charismatic people in the leadership position of Free India. Ambedkar was one but he was also sidelined, politically and by caste.
As far as "given a chance" is concerned, Aurobindo, Gandhi, Bose, Bhagat Singh and the millions that followed them and died weren't looking for "chance".
*India has reached this pathetic condition because Manuwadi (Castist) so called upper caste Hindus with less than 15% population want to rule India forever. And to do so, they are always devising new conspiracies. Therefore, it would be wrong to call India a democracy because out of the 7 national political parties present in India, 5 national political parties are established and run by the upper castes only. Along with this, the four pillars of Indian democracy, Lok Sabha, Rajya Sabha, media and judiciary are illegally occupied by the Manuwadi upper castes. That is why in fact democracy has never been established in India in its true sense since independence. And unless the majority 85% indigenous people of India (SC-ST-OBC-MINORITY) become the ruling class of India, there will be no improvement in this pathetic condition of India. 😒😒😒🙏*
The so called "upper castes" constitute only 2% of total Indian population.

I believe that democracy is not the actual problem of India even dictatorship could have done no good to it the flaw is not in our law but is in enforcement of law every time during enforcement of the law people try to earn money from it and if they can not earn then they are not interested in it. Every politician praises his good deeds but never accepts the nuisance created by them. Being part of the Indian youth I believe it's our responsibility to reform our government in such a manner so that we can actually get out of this black hole of crime and help in making India a developed country than developing.
@Yamini Bhamare no doubt. Individual morality is must.. And once said by Mahatma Gandhi "be the change you want to see in the world".. So I absolutely agree with your point.

BJP is okay but we can do better. It is lesser of the evils but why are we accepting it a fact of life that we have to choose between evils? Many cases, independents are really good people but they rarely win. It is the people to blame.
He is right on many points
Your study of Indian democracy is much better, this situation is still there but now with the demand of the time, youth are working to improve it.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Wow !!! He is saying the trouth !!!
Bitter truth !
It's 2020 now, and things are getting better. BJP has, in only 5,5 years, made several positive changes that Congress in their 70 years of rule could not.
@Shreyas P No doubt about that.
@@Luuka11 which positive changes lol they did nothing.
@@trollwarlord2967 It's quite surprising, or rather shocking, to see that you have failed to notice all the crucial long-awaited changes that have been made so far. I'm referring to both hard & soft power. The former being Article 370, NRC, CAA, etc just to mention a few; the latter, which is priceless, has finally instilled self-respect into a large number of Hindus. Lots of historical facts hidden by the Congress have now come to light. Nationalism is a new phenomenon in India; we only need to be careful so that it doesn't get out of hand.
Aum Shanti🌺❤
patrick french you forget to mention the home of corruption family in inida ( non other than karunanathi family) 1760000000000 rupees

Democracy itself a eyewash.
NO TEARS NO FEARS ONLY CHEERS AND CHEERS FOR ALL NEARS AND DEARS
Wow looking at this in 2023. He was proven right!
This is because Indian Judiciary is Mistress of Rich while Judges in In court passes the quote of Novel instead of Passing judgements.
And this was 10 years ago.
Is it improving, staying put, or regressing?
@@blackknight4996 worsening
As a spectator, the Indian government is really rotten...
Mr. Speaker your are spot on about the Criminalisation of politics in India and abuse of power by police. We have some more gems like Lalu Prasad Yadav of the fodder scam and jungle raj in Bihar.
However, I also wonder what your take would be on Trump being elected the president of USA and police targetting Black people. Is it still a democracy?
He is right about Indian democracy.... But I hope in democracy & I believe in democracy& Democratic system it is the ultimate power of the people.
I said about this about Indians since day 1 and they called me racist.
How is UK a full democracy, when it embellishes king
