Indian democracy is anything but working well. Until the IOC forced the IOA (Indian Olympic Association) to fire him, the IOA's president was doing his job while imprisoned for embezzling an enormous amount of money during the construction process for the 2010 Commonwealth Games, held in New Delhi. Now that Kalmadi has been released due to "insufficient evidence", he's been reappointed as the president of the IOA.

India might be a democracy in name, but rule of law is very poorly enforced.

Yes, that the impression I have as well, corruption being pretty much woven into the fabric of life.
