What are challenges with anti-defection law in India?

[1] Curtail freedom
(It even applies to the Rajya Sabha and Legislative Councils, which have no say in the stability of the government. They have to blindly follow the direction of the party.)

[2] Against the concept of representative democracy (It makes the MP neither a delegate of the constituency nor a national legislator but converts them to be just an agent of the party.)

[3] Hollowing out legislature (If an MP has no freedom to take decisions on policy and legislative proposals, what would be the incentive to put in the effort to understand the different policy choices and their outcomes?)

[4] Weakens accountability mechanism (Dr. Ambedkar in constituent assembly outlined the differences between the presidential and parliamentary forms of government. Unlike presidential form, we enjoys higher accountability. The anti-defection bill weakens the accountability mechanism.)

[5] Inducing instability (The political system has found ways to topple governments. E.g. Manipur, Uttrakhand)

[6] NO timeline for speaker (For instances, In Manipur, for instance, seven Congress MLAs joined the BJP shortly after the 2017 Assembly election and one of them became a Minister too. However, the Speaker did not act on petitions to disqualify the Minister for over two years.)

[7] Forced consensus (It is dictated, which deters constructive debates, and multi-stakeholder participation and deliberation)

[8] Chances of biasness (As the presiding officer has the final say and can potentially play a biased role since he/she belongs to the ruling party member.)

[9] Ambiguity voluntarily giving up membership: It is often an inference drawn by the party that loses a member to another based on the legislator’s conduct. The Supreme Court has also ruled that ‘voluntarily giving up membership’ can be inferred from the conduct of a person.

हिन्दी दिवस प्रत्येक वर्ष 14 सितम्बर को मनाया जाता है। 14 सितम्बर 1949 को संविधान सभा ने यह निर्णय लिया कि हिन्दी केन्द्र सरकार की आधिकारिक भाषा होगी। क्योंकि भारत मे अधिकतर क्षेत्रों में ज्यादातर हिन्दी भाषा बोली जाती थी इसलिए हिन्दी को राजभाषा बनाने का निर्णय लिया और इसी निर्णय के महत्व को प्रतिपादित करने तथा हिन्दी को प्रत्येक क्षेत्र में प्रसारित करने के लिये वर्ष 1953 से पूरे भारत में 14 सितम्बर को प्रतिवर्ष हिन्दी-दिवस के रूप में मनाया जाता है।

🔥 How to control an uncontrollable mind? 🧠

Arjuna asked:

Oh! Krishna, since the mind is unsteady, turbulent, obstinate, and very strong,
controlling the mind is more difficult than controlling the wind."
(Bhagavad Gita 6:34)

Lord Krishna answered: "Arjuna, no doubt the mind is very difficult to control.
However, it can be controlled by constant practice and detachment." (Bhagavad Gita 6:35)
Without DETACHMENT to people and things, MIND cannot be controlled.

Lord Krishna said:

When a person constantly thinks about objects attachment to those objects arises in the mind
From attachment, desire is born and
from desire, anger is born
From anger comes delusion
from delusion comes the loss of memory.
From the loss of memory comes the destruction of intellect
and once the intellect is destroyed, the Person perishes. (Bhagavad Gita Chapter 2: 62, 63)
