Party system is not something any country can choose. It evolves over a long time, depending on the
nature of society, its social and regional divisions, its history of politics and its system of elections.
These cannot be changed very quickly. Each country develops a party system that is conditioned by
its special circumstances. For example, if India has evolved a multiparty system, it is because the
social and geographical diversity in such a large country is not easily absorbed by two or even three
parties. No system is ideal for all countries and all situations.
