The result of the poll: Is a strong opposition in parliment and state assemblies important to ensure check and balance?

Yes (96%, 176 Votes)

No (2%, 3 Votes)

No Idea what you are asking! (2%, 3 Votes)

Not bothered since I’m not even registered to vote (1%, 1 Votes)

Total Voters: 183

Even though 96% said yes, this survey is limited to Internet users, and especially those who are Indians (blog focuses on Indian community issues). Average age is between 22 and 50.
