Description
India has had the greatest democracy in the world since the establishment of the republic. It was regarded as a model democracy in many ways because of its values, which included a nonpartisan Election Commission and open discussion and debate. Its defining characteristics have been the non-discriminatory handling of diversity, concern for a just and equal society, and a deep respect for the Constitution, the country's founding instrument. The struggle between theoretical idealism and historical reality caused disputes that occasionally ruptured the social contract over time, preventing democracy from being fully realized. S.Y. Quraishi, a former chief election commissioner, addresses some of the major issues India is currently dealing with in India's Experiment with Democracy. What fundamental tenets must underpin our conceptions of nationality, citizenship, and democracy? How can we inject a fresh sense of inquiry, inventive erudition, and mid-course correction into our national discourse? The main point of this book is that a democracy must have rational arguments, unbiased research, secularism, civil liberties, and compassion.
