In a side street off the straight deserted road to Madinah, in one of the guest palaces of the Saudi royal family, former Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif sits in his chandelier-hung study, sipping 'kahva' and looking wistful about a world he has left far behind.
``I really admire the beauty of Indian democracy,'' he says. ``One prime minister is voted out and he quietly leaves without a fuss while another moves into the house. You have a Muslim President and a Sikh Prime Minister. Your democracy has grown and deepened. You should be proud of your democracy.''

That's true.
India really has the deep roots of democracy.
The world today thinks India as a non-religeous and democratic country, because democrasy was and is, originally, the culture of India, over last few thousand years! It coexisted with many great civilizations like grreks, unans, mistra.. All but Indian, gone with flow of time; India never tried to invade the freedom of any religon or any country ever!
That's India. A place of true visdom!
Very good Shipya..after all there are some good things in this so called SYSTEM
