It might not be visible, but the single-party dominance dominates not only the political turf of any country but simultaneously all the major landscapes gradually. It might happen by giving the control of a particular organization to someone who is not competent at all; the party with the upper hand will do so with no or less opposition—something that won’t even make any difference. Similarly, the same would happen in other areas as well and as a result, the society is reshaped internally by imbibing certain basic ideological elements in the individuals of the society.
The interference—in a single party dominant society—does not stop there, rather, it moves ahead while attacks stay on weakening, decimating pluralism. Education becomes a target were historical facts, and cultural identities are made to disappear. At the same time, an identity of compulsion is what people end up embracing and behind that remains the larger idea of dominance as was seen in Delhi’s Jegangirpuri where a particular community is now witnessing survival crises. A society, or a system, which hails, works for the single-party dominance, ends up losing almost all the values it once stood for. The democracy goes for a toss, the constitution—which once governed the functioning of the system—holds no value; all of a sudden, a new value system emerges right in front of the eyes of the people which promises dominance, not over their society, but the entire country, the entire region, maybe, someday.
The need is to hold on to the basics of the democracy, allow everyone to participate and let everyone live the way they want, particularly, there is a need for protecting the democratic nature of the society by promoting pluralism and doing away and preventing all the efforts aimed at damaging the multi-party picture of the society in particular and the country in general.
