It was a nice surprise to see Sharad Pawar mention this point, in an interview to a Marathi channel: Central control of political parties not right. This was mostly directed to the Gandhis in the Congress (I).
However, almost same thing happens when it comes to Sharad Pawar's own family, on a high level.
Almost everywhere, we see that political parties do influence the election process more than necessary. We do see many
as we find it here:(The Economic Times) Politics not a bad place to be in: Rahul
“Unless you are from a political family or have a significant last name or able
to bribe people, it is very difficult to enter”
However he also made the statement:
“What I can do is provide more access to people to enter this system. But I
believe I am not in a place to make you think”
So, he understands the importance of reducing the hurdles for the common people to enter politics. However, to make people aware about the politics is a still left unattended.
To enable this awarenes, we do need electoral reforms. We need the measures that will enable a better system of electing people and policy implementation and auditing system. Make an political environment to curb the issues like thoes in the post ...people afraid of actively participating in politics.
Now that the politician have started discussing it openly, we should suggest better electoral systems, that will enable good people enter into this profession and (as a need of this time), "still stay safe"
