Reconstructing the Republic brings together the reflections of a number of eminent scholars, legal luminaries and men and women of wide knowledge. An attempt is made in the Introduction to state their views in brief and at the end to offer some reflections of a unifying nature. No attempt is made to achieve a consensus but a careful reader will be able to discern certain directions which may answer the essential needs at the present time of India's political system. In view of the scams and cases of corruption which have marred the face of India in recent years, an Epilogue has been added at the end on Restoring the Health of the Republic.
