The position of Nazima is correct. The Constitution has adequate principles for proper governance of the country. The people who are responsible for executing and implementing the principles of the constitution have failed to do so because of their self-interest and dishonesty. The tendency to subvert democratic processes in pursuit of power has led to the state of affairs where elections are rigged, money and muscle power becomes important and political parties are run as family institutions without inner-party democracy.

Making of constitution in this way means that it was imposed forcefully without taking into consideration basic ideals of constitution making. Indian constitution was enacted by the constituent assembly constituted in 1946 under the cabinet mission plan. The members of constituent assembly were indirectly elected without any coercion from British government. It was an independent constituent assembly that framed the Indian constitution.
