Should India adopt the Presidential style of governance, like the US? Will a Presidential system work well in India?

Should India adopt the Presidential style of governance, like the US? Will a Presidential system work well in India?
This is highly debatable issue having pros &cons of the same. Problem lies in the system of governance. More focus can be have on blog http://thoughtongovernance.blogspot.com/According to me when constitution of India is treated as one of the best in the world rather our elected representative/ leader should be made right persons to honor the spirit & provisions of the constitution of India, In present scenario our elected representatives have turned the parliamentary system of democratic governance mockery, grossly miss using democratic structure. Rather than debating or discussing important issues country is facing or pondering on how to face the challenges before us even after 60 years of independence like illiteracy, unemployment, poverty, basic human needs etc they seems rather squabbling on futile issues, digressing from real issues or remain absent in the session. Even many of them might not be participating in the parliament even once in entire term. Under the circumstances if presidential system will also not turn fruitful. Need of the time is to make parliamentarian more accountable, disciplined, patriotic, honest & idealistic. The manner in which Times LEAD INDIA series is receiving response from the citizen’s mission of Times will be fruitful in this regard in time to come.Hirnesh Bhavsar
