JAMMU, July 13: Shifting of loyalties by elected representatives has deepen the trust deficit of people in parliamentary democratic institutions, said Congress leaders Ashok Sharma, former legislator and Vinod Sharma, Chairman Displaced Persons in a press statement issued here today.
Anti-defection law by amending the Constitution in its 52nd amendment was enacted to address the problem of instability caused by democratically elected legislators in Indian Parliamentary system of government shifting allegiance from political parties they supported at the time of election or disobeying their parties decision at critical times, such as during voting on an important resolution.
Such shifting of allegiance considered to be an act of endemic political corruption, which in turn provided some legitimization of corruption prevalent in other aspects of life in India.
Defection by legislators or Members of Parliament amounts to a betrayal of peoples mandate as voice day in and day out with the support of the highest political office of the country occupied by the ruling dispensation, added the Congress leaders.
