According to a report filed by the Election Commission of India, 'the 2014 General Elections were the most expensive elections in the history of India where BJP has spent a total of Rs. 714.28 crores.' 1 BJP secured a total of 282 seats, which means it cost a total of Rs. 2.53 crores for each seat that BJP secured. However, this was the amount that BJP disclosed. With the current scenario of politics, we can only imagine what must have been the real amount that must have gone into the campaigning through alcohol and blankets. Now to understand the requirement of such humungous amounts of money, we need to understand the tasks in front of a candidate. The candidate has to present himself at various places, has to appeal to media, roll out his agendas, and work with the party to increase the outreach of the party and has to contact private funders as well. However, 'powerful private sources might work out arrangement of quid pro quo with the candidate, which would result in elected candidates taking decisions for the welfare of special interests than welfare to the general public.' 2 'The percentage of crorepati candidates increased from 16% in 2009 Lok Sabha elections.' 3

However, on applying their ideas and philosophies to current fact scenario, we will realize that we need to understand, analyze and extract certain ideas from both the philosopher to maintain harmony in the society and to induce better morals into the society. For holistic development of the society, we should understand that laws governing the society should be respected as they are based on value based good moral judgements and hold precedence. Both the authors aim to make the society and the world a better place to live in still we find rapes and murders happening across the globe. Let us analyze, inspect, and apply the theories of these philosophers in a way that they work in harmony for moral upliftment of the society.
