The main arguments with modest probable generalisations have been developed around the conceptual frame of para-politics based on the parapolitical fucture (caste-class, locality, region, language, family kinship, and faction etc.) of our traditional society in transition. Political elite manipulation of the non-elite is creating impediments in emergence of a national society and socialistic development. The role of political elite, emerging out of the democratic election process to Indian Parliament and State Legislatures, has the obligation to achieve these goals. The volume, being a phase study of Indian power-politics in the third Five Year Plan period, depicts their role-failure mainly due to dysfunctional para-politics.
