Too many players eroding Indian democracy??

Too many cook spoil the broth, truly said: well does the same apply to our electioneering process? while the polling activity is on full swing across the nation the question arises are we able to maintain the democracy through cohesive forces inspite of the political fragmentation?
India, where after every 100 kms, dialect changes, need a centralized power combined or moreover synerized of all regional powers. long gone the days where monolithic congress or BJP were virtually unchallenged brands in india, emergence of various regional parties has diminished the "Dominating effect".
The fungal growth of these parties across the lines has supersceded the common mass's interest. the fear is that the proliferation of small parties with regional or personal agendas could spell disaster for india's national aspirations & goals in term of development & social equity.
Is it the a sign of healthy diversity or disastrous divisiveness? do our political system well adresses the nation's needs or they are busy doing homework for self development or rather preparing the list of positioning elements for next elections!!
Moreover our system does not lay out any specification framework regarding qualifications & other personal attributes for these nation's drivers. unlike corporates where everything you desire requires you to deserve it first on the basis of stringent eduactional & other factors, these political leaders remain left with list of their forthcoming plans for what they can do after being elected.. i mean if you don't get any job better to go for politics as it does not require you to put in efforts to derive any B.Tech / MBA degree.
Indian politics is another synonym for "Identity politics"a politics of give-and-take, of promises made, sometimes material – sometimes pertaining to jobs and power. But higher principles are entirely absent from such politics. And yet, our politicians couch their rhetoric in the language of principles, fooling only the wilfully self-delusional.

We all know that the whole political system is hosted with parasites like crime, corruption they we again vote the same people & expect them to do something different this time??
