Are constitutional offices in India becoming politically aligned instead of institutionally neutral?

When BJP lacked clear numbers, Governors moved fast.

Maharashtra, 2019. Karnataka, 2018. Goa, 2017. Manipur, 2017.

In Goa and Manipur, Congress was the single largest party, yet BJP was invited to form government through post-poll alliances. Karnataka saw BJP invited despite lacking a majority. Maharashtra saw an early morning swearing-in before stable numbers even existed.

Now TVK is being asked to prove majority before government formation moves ahead.

Same Constitution. Different standards.

People are not questioning coalition politics. They are questioning whether constitutional offices still apply rules consistently, or whether institutions now bend depending on which party benefits.

This is why many question whether Governors act independently or function as political extensions of the Centre. Constitutional offices are supposed to remain neutral, not selectively interpret conventions based on political convenience.

Democracy does not weaken overnight. It weakens when institutions stop appearing impartial, when constitutional grey areas repeatedly favor the ruling party, and when “yes men” replace neutrality.

Day 2980 of saying unite as one show them who holds the real power..change the inferior mindset.

In the end we all want our country to flourish and develop.

The mindset of people regarding politicians is very very stupid, they think they are the gods who are ruling them especially in the low tier cities.

They are in power because we choose them not the otherway. The sooner communities understand this the better it is.

And kindly don't start BJP - CONGRESS bs in the comment section.

What If Auto Rickshaws Had Seat Pressure sensors ?

What if auto-rickshaws in India were fitted with seat pressure sensors to detect overcrowding??

Auto-rickshaws are one of the most affordable and widely used modes of transport in many Indian cities. However, overcrowding is still a common problem, where more passengers are squeezed into the vehicle than it was designed to carry. This affects passenger comfort and can also increase the load on the suspension, brakes, and tires, potentially impacting safety.

A possible solution could be seat pressure sensors, similar to the occupancy sensors used in modern cars. These sensors could detect when the passenger limit has been exceeded and trigger a warning or even prevent the auto from starting.

Technically, this seems possible, and some basic sensor components are relatively inexpensive. But implementing such a system across India would be challenging. Drivers operate on thin margins, maintenance can be difficult, and there is also the risk of tampering if the system reduces earnings.

Do you think a system like this could realistically reduce overcrowding in Indian auto-rickshaws, or would cost, tampering, and practical challenges make it unworkable?
