It's this very fear of anarchic forces which is going to restore sanity and prevent India from being a mobocracy! If our exchequer can bear such useless numbers of ministers and other functionaries it's a very small expense! This country has seen the working of these institutions which are in most cases tools of the government of the day!

It is no use cursing the 'useless minister' and parliamentarians. People get the government they deserve. Anarchy brings dictatorship and not better administration. In the ultimate analysis, every authority is under government or union cabinet directly or indirectly. Executive and parliament are almost same as the executive has to have majority support in parliament. Judiciary though independent is also under President, who can act only under advice of union cabinet (executive). Thus parliament and the ruling alliance having majority therein are definitely dominant. There is no way to have any authority truly independent of government of day. For illustration, C&AG is not under government but is under parliament. So, he submits report to Public accounts committee of parliament. Thus he is indirectly under union government.

Here I am reminded of true incident in Punjab. Once sardar Pratap Singh Kairon, chief Minister requested a High court judge for deciding a certain case as desired by him. The judge told the C.M. that he was independent of government and did not expect the government to interfere. Kairon did not press further. some time later, Kairon happened to notice the same judge at Delhi and offered him lift in his car. Later, Kairon got the T.A. bill of the judge scrutinized and found that he had claimed fare for journey to Chandigarh. This was just accidental as T.A. bill was prepared by assistants and the judge failed to tell that he had got lift in kairon's car. Then Kairon made a case for discipline against the judge for bogus T.A. claim. when the judge told Kairon that this was inadvertent, the C.M. told him not to interfere in 'administrative' work. Thus the executive should not interfere with 'judicial' and judiciary should not interfere with 'administrative' function. This goes to show that ultimately, executive with majority alone is supreme. any talk of some authority being 'independent' of 'government of day' is futile and devoid of any meaning.

The way out is to elect better government. However, you cannot change to non party or direct democracy system.
