5. Importance of Political
Party
• A democracy cannot exist without the
presence of a political party. This is clear
from the function performed by the political
parties because if parties were not formed,
an individual will rule on a country and that
will not be called democracy, it will be
called Dictatorship and you’ve already
studied the results of Dictatorship on a
country.
• Parties also help in making laws for the
country by debating on it’s advantages and
it’s disadvantages in the Assembly.
6. National Parties
India is a democratic country following a
federal system. Federal system indicates
that India is a group of states which has
it’s own government and also has a
central government. Therefore in India
there are two kinds of Political parties
National Parties and State Parties.
• National parties are those parties who
atleast secures 6% of votes in Lok
sabha elections or Assembly elections
in States and wins at least 4 seats in
the Lok Sabha.
8. State Parties
• If a party succeeds in obtaining at
least 6% of the total votes in
Assembly election (Vidhan
Sabha) and wins atleast two
seats then the party is recognised
by Election Commision as a
“State Party”. These are also
called regional parties that are
limited to one state. For example
– Assam United Democratic front,
Janta Dal, Lok jana Shakti Party
and Sikkim Democratic front.
10. Challenges on Political Party
• Lack of Internal Democracy: In the political
parties, all decisions are taken by the leaders of the
party without considering the opinion of other
members of the party.
• Dynastic succession: In a Political party, chances
are that, if someone is a leader of a party, then after
them, they will present their leadership to
successive family member.
• Money And Muscle Power: During Elections,
parties are focussed on winning elections. Hence
they Nominate Rich Candidates and sometimes
they Support Criminals who can win the elections.
Thus money and muscle power influence Policies
and Decisions of the Party.
11. The political parties could be
reformed so as to overcome the
four challenges i.e. Lack of
Internal Democracy, Dynastic
Succession, Growing Money and
Muscle Power, Meaningful
choice ,but there are certain
other problems such as whether
the parties are willing to be
reformed, if no then why these
are not reformed, is it possible to
force them for reforming, and
most importantly what if
government refuse to reform.
