Abstract

Following the Supreme court judgement on election reforms including the mandate to the election commission to disseminate all information provided by the candidate to the people, a large number of non-party political organizations came into existence to facilitate the election process and ensure free and fair choice of candidates. The Mazdoor Kisan Shakti Sanghatana (MKSS) decided to contest the local gram panchayat elections, evolving a set of norms for its candidates. How successful have the strategies of MKSS been in ensuring fair elections and in electing appropriate candidates?
