1. Of late we have been listening in electronic media and both houses of parliament, a phrase called "Conflict of Interests or COI". Conflict of interests is a valid argument/plea provided it is proved.
2. The biggest case of Conflict of Interests is our own government itself. By government I mean the all three wings/pillars (so called) of government. The same set of people (ruling party/combine) are the law makers or sitting in Parliament and same set or sub-set of people are in executive as ministers or state ministers and Chairmen of some corporation or boards. Isn't it the biggest conflict of Interest.
3. These very ministers lead by PM recommend the appointment of judges. Therefore, COI gets compounded. This leads to non accountability of the governance and the ultimate sufferer are people and especially those who have no voice. Armed Forces are classic examples of this no voice phenomenon because constitution has curtailed their freedom of speech.
4. To further this aim, bureaucracy has further complicated the voting process for servicemen.
5. The COI in the case of Parliamentary Democratic functioning is not overt but it it covert. This form of governance has given rise to double speak, one for public consumption and another for the benefit of politicians and bureaucracy. We have to find a solution for this covert COI. This double speak has lead to the formation of NEXUS between politician and bureaucrats.
6. The only method to solve this COI and avoid formation of NEXUS is the Presidential Democracy with duel sovereignty where people will elect legislature and executive separately.
