Electoral bonds are like special notes that people or companies in India can buy to donate money to political parties. They're bought from specific branches of a bank, usually in January, April, July, and October, and sometimes during election years. These bonds come in different amounts, from Rs 1,000 to Rs 1 crore. Some people worry that this secrecy could lead to shady dealings and corrupt practices, while others see it as a way to support causes without fear of reprisal.
