for Democracy's sake!
Artist : Joseph Mirachi Published The New Yorker June 25, 1960
In India democracy is alive and well most time kicking! Opposition opposes because they are in opposition. And even friendly fire from parties like communists is most times deadly.
If today non-congress parties were to be asked what they stand for, their honest answer would be whatever congress doesn't stand for. No more, no less.
But if we want to give it a positive spin to this behaviour, call it to "keep alive the multi-party democracy".
