520 _aDr. Choudhary is an ardent student of electoral systems and thinks first-past the-post (FPTP) system is an inherently undemocratic. It is a system that causes deprivation of the deprived and promotes the tyranny of an artificially contrived majority. He thinks Open-List-Proportional Representation (list-PR) system is the best electoral system for all countries in the world and thinks the best way to introduce the system to the population would be via primary election using a well-designed list-PR. Primaries will give the added benefit of changing politics from its current netaa-centric character to a people-centric mode. This book is meant to stimulate thinking about change of electoral system of India for a better one.
