Write a short notes on power …

Power sharing in Belgium was an example of a marvelous sharing of power among various groups to avoid any sort of conflict between them. The problem existing there was that the community having majority in the entire country , i.e. Dutch was in minority in the capital Brussels. So, it was an invitation to disputes between Dutch and French(which was in monority in the country but was in majority in Bussels). The government of Belgium then brought four amendments in the constitution.

1. There would be an equal number of ministers of each group in the central government.

2. The state government will be given some major powers, so that it doesn 't remain subordinate to central govt.

3. A community government will be formed for each group including germans which will solve issues related to language, culture etc.

4. A separate govt. for the capital will be formed (just like we have in Delhi) where also the number of ministers representing both the groups will be same.
