The unnecessary debacle after YSR's death

The democratically elected chief minister of Andhra Pradesh,YSR,died in a helicopter crash recently.The state has been without a chief minister ever since.Maybe they've appointed a temporary chief minister but I'm not sure of that.What I do know is that the ruling party in the state is divided upon declaring YSR's son as the next chief minister of Andhra Pradesh.And this is what gets my goat.

It would be very unwise to get carried away by the emotional wave that has swept the people of Andhra Pradesh after the popular YSR's sudden demise and allow his son to take the reigns.India is a democracy and in a democracy there's no place for dynastical form of government.Besides late YSR's son has little or no experience in the politics.

Just because you are the son of a dead chief minister doesn't mean you have the right to succeed him.Not in a democracy.
