The nomination process of political parties needs improvement
In the stage of politics, the importance of competent and intelligent representatives is immense. In the present scenario, the nomination process of many political parties is conducted on the basis of popularity, which often elects incompetent and incompetent leaders. These are our policy makers who do not know a little bit about policy making. This does not protect the real interests of the party and the society. It is high time that political parties should take effective steps to select better leaders. If political leaders could be selected like a job test, I think it would be more acceptable. Politics is not practiced at the rate at which political leaders are growing. In today's politics, those incompetent people understand abuse of power, wheat theft, rice theft, bribery, corruption, etc. It seems that these are a normal part of politics, it is a part of daily life. I think these leaders should do politics well before entering politics. Politics should be studied and politics should be practiced. If politics is done only for self-interested reasons, it will fall one day and people will not accept it as normal. They should sit with various philosophers and skilled political leaders and train them first by practicing politics and then come to politics.
Make a wise political leader before coming to power by making people dream about development. Although it is not possible, but I say that in the current situation, politics is done by hooliganism, which is very sad. So we should get out of political revenge and do politics independently and those who want to do politics should practice politics first. Conducting exams through which one has to elect representatives as a politician and work for those parties. Now all the violent animals in human form are busy showing their power.
Speaking about power, Michel Foucault's theory of power comes to mind, Michel Foucault was a French historian and philosopher. French thinker Michel Foucault analyzed power from a new perspective. Power, he says, is hidden in knowledge and has a secret and dangerous nature. Foucault advanced from Marx and Weber to argue that power is not only exercised by the state or capitalists, but exists throughout society. According to him, “power comes from everything and power is exercised over everything.” He does not think of power as a weapon, but rather as something that can not only be possessed, but used to influence the actions of others. Power is something that does not count as real power until it is effectively exercised. In Foucault's words I would like to quote from the first part, power is hidden in knowledge and has a secret and dangerous nature. Therefore, the main way to strengthen our political concept is through the practice of knowledge, not through the use of force.
Political parties should nominate representatives who are elected not only on the basis of popularity, but on the basis of competence, experience and discretion. An efficient leader is not only successful in the political arena, but also plays an important role in the development of various levels of society. They will have a clear and effective policy, which can be properly implemented.
As seen in past electoral processes, in many cases popularity and public opinion have played a role in electing replaceable leaders. But for long-term development, political parties should look for leaders who are able to demonstrate qualities of transparency, integrity and leadership.
To build a better political environment, parties should evaluate leaders on the basis of competence, experience and integrity by redesigning the nomination process. Setting clear criteria for selecting candidates should focus on merit, not just popularity. Seeking diverse leadership. Ensuring development.
Such actions by political parties will be able to bring about positive changes for the society and make the political environment of the country more orderly and effective. So, now is the time and efforts should be made to elect responsible and efficient leaders.
