Which three challenges do you feel …

Following are the challenges faced by political parties:- *Lack of internal democracy:- 1.) Parties do not keep membership register. 2.) They do not regularly hold organisational meetings. 3.) They do not conduct internal elections regularly. *Dynastic succession:- In many parties, the top positions are always controlled by members of one family. This is unfair to other members of that party. *Money and muscle power:- The parties are indulged in the use of money and muscle power for wining elections. This hampers the democracy from developing and lessons the importance of genuine leaders with in the party.

Lack of internal democracy. All over the world, there is a tendency of political parties towards the concentration of power in one or few leaders at the top. Parties do not keep membership register. They do not conduct internal elections regularly. Ordinary members of the party do not have sufficient information as to what happens inside the party. No Transparency. Since most political parties do not practice open and transparent procedures for their functioning, these are very few ways for an ordinary worker to rise to the top in a party. Those who happen to be the leaders are in a position of unfair advantage to famous people close to them or even their family member. In many parties, the top positions are always controlled by members of one family. Money and Muscle Power Since parties are focussed only on winning elections, they tend to use short cuts to win elections. They tend to nominate those candidates who have or can raise a lot of money. Rich people and companies who give funds to the parties tend to have influence on the policies and decisions of the party.
