Voter participation in the 2024 UK election was 60 per cent , the lowest in over 20 years .
Mukulika Banerjee argues that the UK needs to cultivate a democratic culture that engages citizens on political issues beyond just the elections.
In India , one can have an informed and lively political discussion with almost anyone, no matter how poor.
The cultivation of a democratic culture requires a cultivation of the self in discipline, dedication and determination.
Democracy can degenerate easily, governments can make bad decisions and coalitions of activists can be brought down by egos and tensions.
The hard work of cultivation is a down payment on the promise of a better future, and cynicism about politics and politicians is not productive.
