Why Do We Need A Parliament

People from various backgrounds joined the struggle for freedom. They were inspired by the ideas of freedom, equality and participation in decision making. Under the colonial rule, the people had to live in fear of theBritish Government. The British forced people to follow their orders anddecisions which were at times very harsh. People were severely punished even if they tried to criticize these decisions. Because of the continuous demand of the Indian National Congress, the Government of India Act 1909, was passed which allowed for some elected representation but still the British Government did not allow for all adults to vote.
