Although India is a parliamentary democracy, the country's politics has become dynastic or with high level of nepotism, possibly due to the absence of party organizations, independent civil-society associations which mobilize support for a party, or centralized financing of elections.

The Nehru–Gandhi family has produced three Indian prime ministers, and family members have largely led the Congress party since 1978.
