Critical description of parliamentary form of government: 

On the following bases, the criticism of parliamentary government can be done: 

1. This governance system is against the “Principle of separation of powers.” In this, the executive becomes free – willing. 

2. In this form of government, political parties attach less importance to the national interest and more to party interest, because of which, national interests suffer. 

3. There is a fear of autocracy in this government. 

4. Because of the tenure of the government being dependent on the desire of the legislature, this system of governance is weak. 

5. In the event of no political party getting majority in multi-party arrangement in this government, there may appear differences in coalition government causing a situation of political instability. 

6. Because of delay in decision – making in emergency situations, this government is inappropriate. 

7. In this type of governance, the party having majority in the parliament forms government. If any party has sweeping majority, it may have a nature of autocracy. 

8. In this type of government, the power of governance, sometimes, goes in the hands of incompetent persons. 

9. In this type of government, because of being multi-engaged, ministers do not pay the required attention to the governance – related works.
