The first page of the Constitution of India, that called as preamble & nutshell of the Constitution of India was a well letter of all the people of independent India in Constituent Assembly. This letter is a declaration which declare that India is Republic Democratic Nation. The Constitution of India set a proper system to form a democratic government.
Parliament is Apex temple of Democracy in India, in which the Lok Sabha have a direct link with the citizens. Because LS consist of members which directly elected by citizen of India, and as it Mention in Preamble we are a democratic country, which only due to involvement of citizens.
The reason behind it that democracy is just not about the contesting elections and choose representatives, it is about to promote the brotherhood among the all people of the nation, promote equality, accept the plurality of thoughts & working on the dreams of the founding fathers of the Constitution As per the constitutional provisions for the better working for LS, a Speaker elected by all members, he considered as the Presiding Officer of LS, Article 92 of Indian Constitution talks about the post of Speaker and Deputy Speaker of LS. Now days this Constitutional Body is in every talk because after the LS Electronic, 2024 now it’s time of election of Speaker of LS and both alliances disclose the name of candidates. Before the election of Speaker. Pro-term speaker is appointed and he take care of all proceedings and business, before the election of Speaker. At most time the name of Speaker is proposed by the newly elected Prime Minister. All members of Lok Sabha elect the speaker among all of theme. In case were the ruling alliance/political party have good numbers of MPs in LS then Speaker is directly elected on power of majority, but in situation likes these the opposition also try to contest in election throw their candidate.
The first meeting of Parliament after the election, called by The Hon’ble President of India, and around that time election of speaker happen, the newly elected Speaker takes the oath of office, administered by the Pro tem Speaker. The oath signifies their commitment to uphold the Constitution and discharge their duties impartially and to the best of their ability. This constitutional post a very important role, in context of opposition as well, Dr, Ambedkar say throw writing & speeches that a strong & good Opposition is necessary for a successful democracy. He believes that opposition is like the elder brother of the ruling government who critics when something wrong is happens and give suggestion on every work in national interests. However this type of corporation rarely to see but some time it shows when Bills pass out from the both house of the Parliament unanimously & certain issues are solved with any politics. India completed a large time after independence and see various ups and downs in context of Democracy & Constitution, even India see the changes in the first page of the Constitution & major changes portion, people have various views on it some take it positively and some consider it as a breach of Democracy, although India is a Democratic country and Liberal Constitution which gives the freedom of speech & plurality of thoughts. In the interpretation of views of Dr. Ambedkar, for the establishment of strong Democracy a well establish setup is required.
