This document proposes electoral reforms to reduce the influence of money and muscle power in Indian politics. It suggests 9 steps, including not changing a Supreme Court decision on election funding, introducing a right to recall politicians, banning paper ballots, redefining spending limits, and making voting compulsory. It also proposes forming state and central committees to allocate funds to politicians to prevent corruption and increase transparency through social audits. Challenges to these reforms include entrenched political interests, potential corruption within new committees, and selecting honest committee members.

• MLA and MP funds is the main source of
corruption, they give their People contract, or giving
him those who share their.
• After the formation of this committee will be they can
not interfere in the fund, and after it they can not find
their share.
• When he can not get his share , then those who want
to earn through the fund, they will financially broke,
and no guts to fight with money power, only gentle
man who do not want to earn money through fund
will contest in election.
