A robust democracy requires more than just regular elections; it must be fair, transparent, and institutionally credible. Money power, politicizing crime and finance are among the issues plaguing India’s election system. While there are constitutional provisions to ensure Parliament and Election Commission of India (ECI) to ensure free and fair elections, political inaction has left loopholes. Consequently, the Supreme Court has played the role of a guardian of electoral integrity through its landmark decisions like ADR, PUCL and Lily Thomas, enhancing transparency and accountability. The recent striking down of the Electoral Bonds Scheme gave another financial openness ahead. Despite the worries about judicial overreach, the proactive role of the judiciary has ensured the sanctity of democracy. This paper argues that lasting reform necessitates joint efforts of the synergy of Parliament, ECI and the judiciary towards securing and protecting the electoral process as the lifeline of Indian democracy.
