520 _aThis work from the well-known author and the erstwhile Secretary-General of Lok Sabha, has the unique distinction and merit of being based on the most intimate knowledge of the actual working of the office of the Speaker and style and performance of each successive Speaker of Lok Sabha from Dadasaheb Mav alankar to Shri Rabi Ray. Drawing upon the author's vast personal involvement as participant in the parliamentary process and his in-depth studies into the original source materials over the years, the work is divided into two parts. Part one discusses the origin and evolution of the office of the Speaker, its role and functions, relationship with political parties, election procedure etc. Part two with its nine chapters is devoted to the nine personalities who have so far occupied the office of the Speaker, Lok Sabha. The focus in each chapter is on their life and work, contributions to parliamentary institutions, rulings given from the Chair and precedents established. The book is bound to be of interest to the general readers, concerned citizens, parliamen tarians, students and scholars in the field of Parliamentary Political Science, Legislative Process and Legislative Management Studies.
