Answer to be written in Exam:
Situations that display lack of internal democracy within a Political party:
- Parties do not keep membership registers , do not hold organizational meetings , and do not conduct internal elections regularly.
- Ordinary members of the party do not get sufficient information on what happens inside the party.
- Since they don’t have the connection or the means to influence decisions, the party leaders assume great power.
- A party’s leadership is dominated by a few people, so those who disagree are unable to stay in it.
- Rather than following party principles and policies, it becomes more important to follow the leader.
