Citation for symbols used in Indian elections

The following can be used as a citation for the sentence "Symbols are used in Indian political system as an identity of political parties and that illiterate people can also vote by recognizing symbols of party": http://eci.nic.in/eci_main/ElectoralLaws/HandBooks/HANDBOOK%20OF%20SYMBOLS.pdf Venkam (talk) 02:05, 2 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Nepotism and NPOV

There's currently a section on "Nepotism in Indian politics". While this is pertinent information, presenting it in this fashion creates a POV issue by unnecessarily casting a negative light on Indian politics. I would suggest rewriting it to summarize Political families of India without implying that it's good or bad. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 02:07, 14 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I've changed the heading to a more neutral phrasing. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 00:40, 30 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

State of Democracy

This section needs to state the problems facing Indian democracy a lot more clearly. IMHO, India ceased to be a democracy in 2014, and it was made official in 2019 with the passage of the Citizenship Amendment Act. 146.142.1.10 (talk) 18:24, 13 September 2023 (UTC)TTCUSM[reply]

Blatant Political Biasness Against a Particular Political Party

the part under WhatsApp elections and even the second paragraph, under political parties and alliances has been either written with the sole intent to put a political party in negative light, or has been picked up from a partial media source without appropriate research. Even if the allegations mentioned are not baseless, they are still allegations and have not been proved in any Indian Court of Law or even by any reputable international organization. Shameless accusations without indicating that it is merely an unproven allegation/possibility seems like a deliberate attempt to defame the world's largest electoral system, and by extension, the world's most populous country and democratic federal republic. Moreover, the Indian Prime Minister has been referred to as 'President Modi', and the informal nature of the writing proves the inexperience and puts its reliability under serious question. Reading this as a 17-year old Indian in 2024, five years after the 2019 elections, it is safe to say that propaganda is indeed being concocted, but not as much by the persons implicated in these baseless excerpts, rather much more by the very people who wrote them.
