Merits and demerits of first past the post system. |

Answer» Disadvantages\tGovernments are being elected on a minority of votes cast in a general election, meaning those in government who are making all the decision do not represent the opinions of the majority of the country. This leads to doubts about democratic legitimacy. The was particularly prevalent in the 2005 election, when Labour secured a majority of the seats in the House of Commons with only 35.2% of the total vote, however this issue was solved in 2010 with the formation of a coalition, so 59.1% of the total votes was for one of the two parties that make up to coalition. So in this sense the current coalition is more legitimate than the previous Labour government.\tFPTP is extremely discriminative against smaller parties due to our \'two party system.\' The Liberal Democrats are a prime example of such discrimination; in the 2010 General Election they received 23% of the votes but just 57 seas, while Labour received 29% of votes and 258 seats. On average, 33,000-34,000 votes are needed to elect a Labour or Conservative MP, but 120,000 to elect a Liberal Democrat. This is why the Lib Dems were pushing for the AV referendum in 2011, as a more proportional system would see them receive more seats.\tThere are a large number of \'wasted\' votes, for example those living in a \'safe seat\' voting against the traditional party or a vote for a smaller party that is extremely unlikely to win a seat (eg. the Green party). This means that votes in marginal seats are effectively worth more than those in safe seats, politicians are more likely to spend time in these areas prior to an election to try and convince the voters to \'swing\' to their party. An example of a safe seat is Liverpool Walton which is held by labour. This type of vote wastage may be one of the reasons for low turnout, people do not see the point in voting if their vote is not going to count. Advantages\tIt has existed for a long time, is widely accepted and tradition for the Westminster General Elections. It is also easy to understand, meaning even those who are not hugely knowledgeable in politics are able to participate.\tIt retains a strong link between an MP and his or her constituency; this provides an access point for citizens to participate in the democratic process. This is not as easy to do in electoral systems that have multi-member constituencies, as your constituency will be much larger so your representative may live too far away for you to be able to visit. If you have more than one representative for your area it also causes the problem of choosing which one of your representatives to approach.\tIt tends to produce a strong and stable government, which therefore has a clear majority in the House of commons and a strong mandate to govern (although the 2010 result weakens this argument). A strong government means they will be able to introduce the policies in their manifesto, which they were voted into government to do. A stable governement means they are unlikely to collapse or recieve a \'vote of no confidence,\' so we can be sure the government will last its entire 5 year term ensuring the country has stability. |

What are the sources that determine the authority of Constitution?? |
|
Answer» borrowing provisions have\xa0helped the Constitution to build upon the collective learning of the humankind. Let us check the provisions which have been sourced from different legal systems:i.\xa0The Government of India Act of 1935: This was an Act passed by the Parliament of Britain. It provided a framework for the government of India and was passed in the response to demands of the Indian leaders for democracy. The Constitution borrows from it the Federal Scheme of government, Office of Governor, the system of the judiciary (establishing a supreme court), Public Service Commissions, and the Emergency provisions.ii. British Constitution: Parliamentary system, Bicameralism, Rule of Law (Article 14), Legislative procedure, Single citizenship, Cabinet System, System Writs (Article 32 & 226), the rule of law\xa0iii. US Constitution:\xa0Fundamental Rights (Part III), Post of Vice President, Judicial Review, Impeachment of the President, Removal of judges of Supreme Court and High Court(Article 124).iv.\xa0Irish Constitution:\xa0Directive Principles of State Policy (Part IV), the nomination of members to Rajya Sabha, and method of election of President.v.\xa0Canadian Constitution:\xa0It is exciting that the same parliament (British) Which passed the Government of India Act 1935, made constitutional laws for Canada. Thus, borrowing from Canada means taking something from English Case law. The provisions regarding the Federation with a strong center, the appointment of governors by the center and advisory jurisdiction of the Supreme Court (Article 143), and the residuary powers with the center (Article 248) have been sourced from Canada.vi.\xa0Australian Constitution: Freedom of trade and commerce, Concurrent List, joint sitting of the two Houses of Parliament.vii. Weimar Constitution (Constitution of Germany):\xa0Suspension of Fundamental Rights during Emergency.viii. Soviet Constitution: The Soviet Constitution is known for its socialism. India, being a welfare state, did borrow the principles like Fundamental duties and the ideals of social, economic and political justice (Found in the Preamble).ix. French Constitution:\xa0Republic character of Constitution. The ideals of liberty , equality and fraternity in the Preamble.x. South African Constitution:\xa0Procedure for amendment, the Constitution and election of the members of Rajya Sabha.xi. Japanese Constitution:\xa0Procedure established by law.This, the above-mentioned provisions, are those which have been sourced from a foreign legal system. it must not be concluded from the above that it is a copy paste, The ultimate\xa0source\xa0of political and\xa0constitutional authority\xa0in India is vested with the people. Elections are held on regular intervals on the basis of adult franchise. Equality is the basic principle of a democratic form of government. Citizens of India enjoy the justifiable fundamental rights. |

What are Affirmative actions to promote equality? In points |
| Answer» | |
| 1018. |
What are affirmative Actions to promote equality? |
| Answer» Affirmative action is based on the idea that it is not sufficient to establish formal equality by law. When we wish to eliminate inequalities that are deeply rooted, it is necessary to take some more positive measures to minimise and eliminate entrenched forms of social inequalities. Most policies of affirmative action are thus designed to correct the cumulative effect of past inequalities.Special assistance in the form of affirmative action is expected to be a temporary or time-bound measure. The assumption is that special consideration will enable these communities to overcome the existing disadvantages and then compete with others on equal terms. Although policies of affirmative action are supported for making the society more equal, many theorists argue against them. They question whether treating people differently can ever lead to greater equality.The fact is that in the spheres of education and health care India has done far less for its deprived population than what is their due. Inequalities in school education are glaring. Many poor children in rural areas or urban slums have little chance of attending schools. If they do get the chance, their schools have little to offer that would be comparable to the facilities available in elite schools. The inequalities with which children enter school tend to continue to hamper their chances to improve their qualifications or get good jobs. These students face hurdles in gaining admission to elite professional courses because they lack the means to pay for special coaching. The fees for professional courses also may be prohibitively high. Consequently, they cannot compete on equal terms with the more privileged sections. | |

Explain the function of constituent assembly |
|
Answer» A constituent assembly or constitutional assembly is a body or assembly of popularly elected representatives which is assembled for the purpose of drafting or adopting a constitution or similar document. The constituent assembly is entirely elected by popular vote [1]; that is, all constituent assemblies are constitutional conventions, but a constitutional convention is not necessarily a constituent assembly. As the fundamental document constituting a state, a constitution cannot normally be modified or amended by the state\'s normal legislative procedures[2]; instead a constitutional convention or a constituent assembly, the rules for which are normally laid down in the constitution, must be set up. A constituent assembly is usually set up for its specific purpose, which it carries out in a relatively short time, after which the assembly is dissolved. A constituent assembly is a form of representative democracy.Unlike forms of constitution-making in which a constitution is unilaterally imposed by a sovereign lawmaker, the constituent assembly creates a constitution through "internally imposed" actions, in that members of the constituent assembly are themselves citizens, but not necessarily the rulers, of the country for which they are creating a constitution.[3] As described by Columbia University Social Sciences Professor Jon Elster:Constitutions arise in a number of different ways. At the non-democratic extreme of the spectrum, we may imagine a sovereign lawgiver laying down the constitution for all later generations. At the democratic extreme, we may imagine a constituent assembly elected by universal suffrage for the sole task of writing a new constitution. And there are all sorts of intermediate arrangements.[4] The Constituent Assembly had set itself for the task of preparing a constitution of free India. Itstarted meeting on 9 December, 1946 the Drafting Committee under the Chairmanship of Dr. B. R.Ambedkar, completed its work on 26 November,1949. The Constitution of India came into forceon 26 January, 1950. When India became a Republic. Every year we celebrate 15 August as the Independence Day and 26 January as the Republic Day.The task of Assembly was outlined by Pt.Jawaharlal Nehru in his speech moving the objectives resolution in on 13 December, 1946. In the resolution proposed, the Assembly expressed its firm and solemn resolve to pro-claim India as an Independent Sovereign Republic comprising British India, Indian Princely States and other territories willing to be constituted into the Independent Sovereign India. The Assembly declared that justice : social, economic and political, equality of status, of opportunity, and before the law; freedom of expression, thought,believe, faith, worship, vocations association and action shall be guaranteed and secured to all the people of India. |

Short note on patriarchy |
|
Answer» Rule by men. Or men dominated society Patriarchy means rule by men. It literally refers to a society that values men more than women. A woman was considered timid and fool infront of a man. Patriarchal society is like a cancer to this world. Not only lndia, but there are many countries where patriarchal society still exists. In most of the households, we will see that a family has a boy and a girl where a girl is made to wash her plates, wash her clothes and a boy\'s work is done by his mother. Why is this so? This is so because of our damn patriarchal society. Thus, the state should adopt measures that benefit women more than men. \tLiterally, it means rule by father. The concept of patriarchy is often employed to refer to a system that values men more and accords them power over women.\tPatriarchal society is the society which values men more and gives ruling power to men over women.\tMatriarchal society is the society which values women more and gives ruling power to women over men.\tGender equality is valuing both men and women rights equally in the society. |

|
Answer» *Powers of the Lok Sabha:-1.) It introduces money and non money bills. It gives opinions and later decides whether to accept it or reject it.2.) It amends bills.3.) It records the accountability of executive by asking questions, making committee etc. This helps the Lok Sabha on keeping a bird\'s eye view on the executive.4.) It participates in the elections of Vice President and President and also participates in the process of removal of judged of Supreme Court and High Court.5.) It gives assent to the Proclamation of state of emergency.*Powers of Rajya Sabha:- 1.) It passed non money bills and actively participates in the process.2.) It participates in the amendment of the Constitution.3.) It keeps a bird\'s eye view on the executive by asking different questions etc.4.) It can alone participate in the elections and removal of President, Vice President, judges of high court and supreme court.5.) It can give the Union Parliament the power to make laws in state regarding list. 1. The Council of States or Rajya Sabha is a permanent House and it is not subject to dissolution. After every two years, one-third of its members retire and its same numbers of seats are filled up by new members. The Lok Sabha is not a permanent House. It is dissolved after the expiry of its term of five years. But it can be dissolved before the period of five years by the President on the advice of the Council of Ministers. New Lok Sabha is elected and constituted within a period of 6 months from the date of its dissolution.2. The total membership of the Rajya Sabha is 250. It is a representative House of States but the States are not represented equally in the Rajya Sabha. Seats in the Rajya Sabha are allocated to different States on the basis of population. Out of the total members of the House, twelve members are nominated by the President from amongst the persons having special knowledge or practical experience in the fields of literature, science, art\xa0and\xa0social service. The maximum strength of the Lok Sabha can be 552 members. Out of this, 530 members are elected from the States and 20 members are elected from the Union Territories. The remaining two members are nominated by the President from among the Anglo-Indian community.3. The members of the Rajya Sabha are elected by the Legislative Assemblies of the respective States on the basis of proportional representation. The members of the Lok Sabha are elected by the people directly on the basis of\xa0secret\xa0vote and universal franchise. For the purpose of election, the population is divided into various constituencies.4. The Chairman of the Rajya Sabha is not a member of this House. The Vice-President of India is the ex-officio\xa0Chairman\xa0of the Rajya Sabha. But the Deputy-Chairman of the Rajya Sabha is elected by the members of the Rajya Sabha from amongst its members. The Speaker and the Deputy Speaker of the Lok Sabha are the members of the House and are elected by the members of the Lok Sabha themselves.5. The Money Bills cannot be introduced in the Rajya Sabha. The Money Bills can be introduced only in the Lok Sabha.6. With respect to Money Bills, the Rajya Sabha can make only recommendations which\xa0mayor\xa0may not be accepted by the Lok Sabha. The Rajya Sabha is given 14 days time to consider the Money Bills and if it fails to do anything within that period, the Bill is deemed to have been passed in the manner it was passed by the Lok Sabha. The Lok Sabha is not bound to accept the recommendations of the Rajya Sabha with respect to Money Bills. The Lok Sabha has the real and final authority in respect of Money Bills. |

Equality is natural. Explain with details. |
|
Answer» It\'s true that equality is natural. Men and women are born free. Free in every possible way. They can do whatever they want. For a long time, women were considered less powerful as compared to men. Nature made everything with equal importance. It was men who put restrictions on women or on other things. Thus, equality is natural. But, due to some people\'s restrictions on certain things that resulted inequality. However, in today\'s world we face a society which treats a women equally as men (except for some places). Thus, natural equality can\'t be restricted by anyone. Hence, equality is natural. Natural equality\xa0implies that all men are born free and\xa0equal, hence the state should promote social and economic opportunities to offer\xa0equality. Social\xa0equality\xa0makes all persons equally eligible to enjoy various opportunities. |

Inequality is natural. Explain in detail. |
|
Answer» I can\'t fully agree with the above statement. But, at some point l can agree with that. Look, inequality was created by men and this society. Nature never treated anyone unlikely. It was our society that created one of the worse things. It created the crudest system of casteism, a patriarchal society where women were considered only to beget children, a society where the poor people\'s choice was snatched from them, a society of class system, widow immolation continued etc. Nature gave the responsibility to a women for giving birth to a child but this society took it in such a way that they started exploiting them. But, conditions are not even good now. This inequality is not created by nature. Did nature tell only us(women) to make food? The answer is no. It\'s a societal norms that forces us to think that these are natural inequality. However, against this background, the state should look into these things and try to make sure that these inequalities are not continued anywhere. Natural equality\xa0implies that all men are born free and\xa0equal, hence the state should promote social and economic opportunities to offer\xa0equality. Social\xa0equality\xa0makes all persons equally eligible to enjoy various opportunities. |

Why did India adopt the FPTP system ?give four reason |
|
Answer» because for elections to lok sabha and state legislative assembly India has adopted the FPTP systemThe reasons for success of FPTP include :1 Simplicity and AccountabilityThe PR system of elections is quite complicated. It can work in small countries but it is unsuitable for a sub- continental country like india. For common voters ,the FPTP system is easy to understand and operate. Voters have to simply choose a candidate or a party while voting. Voters may give importance to either the party or thr candidate or strike a balance between both. In the PR system, voters vote for parties and representatives are chosen as on the basis of party list. As a result no one is real representative. In FPTP , the voters know and can approach the representative of their constituency and can also hold them accountable.2 . Stable GovernmentThe framers of indian constitution felt that PR system may not provide stable Government in the legislature and PR system may not produce clear majority since seats are alloted in legislature on the basis of vote share. The FPTP system allows largest party or coalition to form a government with a majority, more than PR system of sharung votes may give. The FPTP system therefore provides stability to parliamentary government .3 . Wide representationFPTP system encourages representatives of different communities to win election in a locality. The PR system would lead each community to form a nationwide party in India since the nation is full of diverse groups.The framers of Indian constitution have lived upto the expectations of the Indian people. The FPTP syst is a simple and familiar system for ordinary voters. It helps huge parties to win majority at central and state levels. It has even discouraged parties to get votes only from one social group. Normally the functioning of FPTP system leads to a two party system. But in India first it was one party dominance while small parties existed. Sice 1989, it has led to rise of multi-party coalition in India. But in many states two party competition is emerging . Likewise, the distinct feature of Indian party system is that the rise of coalition has made it possible for new and small parties to enter into open electoral competition deapie the existence of FPTP system. Our country \'India\' adopted the FPTP system because of the following reasons:-1.) Biggest democratic country \'lndia\' :- First reason, our country is large and has a very good and great amount of population. In order to represent this large and diverse population, lndia adopted FPTP system.2.) Simplicity of FPTP system:- If we look at PR system and FPTP system then clearly we can say that the FPTP system is not complex and can be easily understood by literates, old people, illiterate, remote village people etc.3.) FPTP system involves less chances of confusion:- lf we look at this system then it can be clearly understood that this system saves our precious time as this system involves only one time voting whereas PR system involves voting two or three times. It also prevents the chances of confusion in counting votes.4.)FPTP is good for having a majority seats secured by any party:- In Parliamentary system, the executive plays a big role and in such cases there should be a party( elected by majority) to look after the works. In PR system, the seats are shared in proportion to each party\'s votes. Thus, there should be a party with maximum number of seats without using any complex process. India adopted this system because for elections to lok sabha and state legislative assembly India has adopted the FPTP systemThe reasons for success of FPTP include :1 Simplicity and Accountability:\xa0The PR system of elections is quite complicated. It can work in small countries but it is unsuitable for a sub- continental country like india. For common voters ,the FPTP system is easy to understand and operate.

Why does the Preventive Detention look like an effective tool in the hands of the Government ? |
| Answer» Preventive detention is an effective tool that gives the government the right to arrest any person that has an anti social agenda about a certain society or community. Such person can harm the society due to this the government can arrest such persons on ground of preventive detention. The government can take that person under custody for three months and after that the government has to give evidence for keeping such person under custody.

Explain the six fundamental rights guarentee by the Indian constitution 200words |
|
Answer» Yogita lngle has already explained four fundamental rights. So, you can get these points from her. l can explain the remaining two points. Here is the explanation:-*Cultural and educational right:- This right ensures that the minority groups can carry their culture without the involvement of some other group. This ensures that each ethnic groups can carry their culture. This right also says that there will be enough provisions for their educational rights. For example:- Jamia Milia university is particularly for Muslim community so as to promote their education. But, any religion of student can read there.*Right to constitutional remedies:- This right is very important for every people. When any people\'s right is violated then he/she can go to the court and ask for remedy. Due to this, B.R Ambedkar called it heart and soul of the constitution. This right protects other rights. After the post-independence era, India brought down some very essential fundamental rights. These rights are guaranteed by the law to every citizen of India. It is important to know what they are so that no one can be deprived of his/her rights.1. Right to Equality: This right states that all citizens are the same under the law. This means that men and women are equal no matter what religion or caste they belong to. The law will treat a Brahmin woman in the same way that it would treat a Muslim man if they were to break the law.2. Right to Freedom: The particular law allows the people of the country to censure the government and its policies. They are allowed to organise themselves however they choose and carry out their daily lives in any way they seem fit. Of course within limits. In short, people are able to exist without fear of a higher force such as the government.3. Right against Exploitation:\xa0One should always remember that to be exploited is to be misused. We often see that kids and poor people are especially vulnerable to being exploited. This one of the most important fundamental rights ensures things like education for children and equal pay for equal work.4. Right to Freedom of Religion: In our country, each and every citizen can practice their choice of religion. Everyone is free to do whatever his/her religion tells them to do. So Muslims fast during Ramzan, Christians during Lent and Hindus during Navaratri.
