India's independent democracy is messy, however it is young and India is a giant nation. A democracy of 1.4 billion people that even partially functions is a remarkable feat. What they're attempting is obviously no small task. Europe for example has several poorly functioning democracies, to go with two dictatorships. Among ~195 nations, there are not more than three dozen well operating democracies among them, along with another two dozen that kinda-sorta function democratically.
