    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker for giving me a chance to also express myself on this important Motion. First, the intent and spirit of the Political Parties Act was to strengthen democracy, particularly multi-party democracy in our country. The reason why it was felt that this was necessary was that political parties were allied to individuals. When an individual bankrolled a political party, he or she owned the party, made decisions in the party and everything entirely depended on the person. Therefore, other members of the party had no freedom. They were not allowed to think. They could not do anything other than to remain loyal and beyond loyal, they must be followers of the owner of the party. So, that promoted democracy of dictatorship. That promoted democracy within the political parties."
