What makes myanmar non democratic?

It is non-democratic because when the people voted for Aung San Suu Kyi to be their president, the military had her arrested, and placed under house arrest. They have refused to hand over power to her and continue to subject the people to their military Dictatorship. They have had many thousands arrested for protesting against them and have killed thousands more ethnic tribal people in the countryside.

The military junta's recent behavior after the cyclone, in preventing relief efforts, disqualifies them from office.

What is the name of the clan from India that all of Myanmar's kings descend from?

The clan from India from which the kings of Burma (Myanmar) claimed descent is the Shakya Clan, then same clan that is known to have produced Siddhartha Gautama Shakya, also known as Guatama Buddha.

However, there is no documentary support (or archaeological or legendary support) for the Burmese connection to the Shakya before 1832. In that year the Hmannan Maha Yazawindawgyi (Glass Palace Chronicle) was published, having been compiled by a Burmese Royal Historical Commission from 1829-1832. Although this compilation was based on earlier chronicles, local histories, and inscriptions, a primary purpose was to provide legitimation of the Burmese monarchy according to religious criteria. Notably, it replaced the pre-Buddhist origin story of the Burmese Monarchy with one that links the monarchy to the clan of the Buddha and with Maha Sammata, the first monarch according to Buddhist tradition.
