Electoral Funding in India - Inputs needed on Solutions

If Some party starts working honestly in governance then That party will enjoy mass support and hence will require less funds, so less donations from business houses and subsequently Will be forced to make less undue favor. So Expect for a tough task that is Honest Political Leaders.

Election commission can curb role of corporate funding by reducing time of election campaign and allowing only internet /mobile methods for communicating with people. Strict audiing of political parties accounts will also help in above.

1. Further, Election Commission is only the Body to secure Political Leaders to the Nation who will be the RULERS OF THE STATES AND THE NATION those to be highly responsibly dedicate to Democracy and the Vested Duty to Carry the Government Benefits and Constitutional Laws and Governance to the People with an un-deviated RESPONSIBILITY / DUTY to punish the persons/societies/ Groups/ Organizations/ Govt. Employees and even the Rulers/Administrators in cases of Frauds/ Cheating/ Oppressive/Negligent Actions/ Un-fulfilling their Duties, in-human / un-Democratic Acts listed in various Articles and Laws/Rules. 2. I have sent a comprehensive letter on 29-09-2013 to the CENTRAL AND STATE ELECTION COMMISSIONS requesting to kindly do the needful to Save our Poor and Common People from the Present SHADOW. 3. A. As per the matters appeared in the News Papers on 21st October, ‘13 , the Congress Party of india HAS REJECTED THE TEN POINT FORMULA FORMED BY THE ELECTION COMMISSION IN CONNECTION WITH THE ELECTIONS.

Corporate Sector funding of election for different political parties are done all over the world and I'm not sure how this can be stopped. In any case this should be made mandatory for every corporate sector to declare how much they have contributed for each party. No corporate sector should be allowed to fund individual leaders. If any corporate body or HNW individual fail to declare their contribution but later found guilty law be made to punish them, instead of asking the political parties to declare there source of funding. Law exist for foreign funding of political parties which must be implemented with letter n spirit

When the B.J.P , the ruling party itself in favour of getting secret funds from Corporate Sector along with Congress Party, the common man in this country can not do any thing
