As a minor analytical views pertaining to current political scenerio locally being a part of the state, positive direction of democracy in this largest democracy country of India is still prevailing, which some positive leaders within different political parties are maintaining to uphold the dignity of democratic principles for lasting parliamentary form of democracy in the state. Although some odds and hurdles in infrequent while come in their forefront when striving for lasting democracy.

If follows the suggestions of pioneers in politics, it finds that politics starts from family as human being is political animal. In a family, two heads play a vital role while leading their family members and each member has the privilege to place the respective opinion in leading the entire Institute for the peace and welfare of their family. It is natural that sometimes different opinions arise amongst themselves in giving protection of family from any undone.

In view of the above, a section of members from within the same party coming to the main street, peacefully raising their voice to highlight grievances, to them, for protection of democracy in the Local Self Government and the party - may be considered and at the same time it is expected to settle on time from the higher authority before worsening. If failed, development of the district and party itself may unexpectedly be affected in the coming days, emphasized the various social and political leaders in different parts of the areas.
