India-Politics and government

320.9 NAT

Summary: Indian nation and polity are passing through a period of tremendous strain. Uncertainty and instability threaten to endanger the entire system. Even before the last elections returned a 'hung Parliament and we had a 13-party minority coalition government installed, a nation-wide debate on the need for constitutional reforms and changing the political system was on. The latest developments and the new experiments in national politics have made the theme more relevant. This study is an evidence of the new urgency in the context of the emerging scenario. It contains selected contributions from eminent scholars, jurists and publicmen and presents several concrete proposals for necessary systemic modifications and reforms. The book is most likely to generate and facilitate further debate on the theme of constitutional and political reforms.
