good data collection prakash ji ! virtually the present system may be called "democratically approved dynastic rule". whatever nomenclature it may be given, but the politics is also a herditory profession .

Though you have missed familly of Gandhi and Patnayaks, it is a good collection only. 

More over, it gives a meaning that the people still wants a heriditart to administer or rule themselves
