After gaining independence, the framers of the Constitution adopted the electoral system prevalent in Britain since the 16th century, known as the "First Past the Post" system. In this system, the candidate receiving the most votes is declared the winner. However, this approach does not provide adequate representation for minority voters. Additionally, party factionalism and strict party discipline undermine democratic traditions, fostering issues like casteism and corruption. To address the shortcomings of the electoral system, implementing proportional representation and a more inclusive electoral framework could be beneficial.
