    In Hyderabad, it can be challenging to maintain a democratic system of governance. Gangsters, drug peddlers, extremists, and other criminals often take advantage of the system to get elected. This leads to violence before and after elections, which goes against the principles of a true democracy. The desire for power often overshadows ethical behavior in the political arena.

    Even in the largest democracy in the world, India, violence during elections is a common occurrence. States like West Bengal, Punjab, J&K, and Chhattisgarh have seen significant election-related violence. This reflects a lack of understanding of civil society rules and a disconnect between public praise for democratic values and their actual practice.

    The recent widespread violence in India during elections should serve as a wake-up call for public representatives. Attacks on candidates and leaders must be condemned, as they pose a threat to the very concept of democracy. The justification of violence by criminals using terms like human rights is unacceptable, and law-abiding citizens’ rights should always take precedence.
