What democracy?


What democracy?
Democracy means majority rules but is there a democracy in our Country?
60-70% of people vote        
Average taken as 65%.
Winning candidate polls between 30% to 40%
rest are divided in other candidates.
Average taken as 35%
Winning candidate gets 35% of 65% votes
that is 22.75% of population

So the person representing your constituency has polled less than 25% of population and more people have voted in favor of other candidates than the number of people who voted in favor of winning candidate. Hence the candidate is representing a minority.

Less % of votes purchased on account of money power.

Is this is what it means by Democracy or majority rules?

Wolves and Lambs can never enjoy meeting of minds. 

In a democracy Cockroaches or Rats would be king as they outnumber everyone else.

What good is this democracy where people feel proud and want to called  "Backwards".
