a) Parties should be asked to nominate women candidates for at least one-third of the seats in the elections. This will also maintain gender equality in the society.


b) Regulation of internal affairs of various parties should be made necessary and a law should be made which will help in the regulation of internal affairs.


c) To eliminate lobbying and unfair competition for the funding a state funding shoul be formed for the elections. The government should also give parties money to support their election expenses.


d) A law should be established to regulate the internal affairs of parties, thereby making them more transparent.
