Abstract

since india's move to democracy in 1947, many have questioned the success, or lack thereof, of the democratization process, its advantages and detriments, the effect on society, and its role in religious conflict. There are contradictory and mixed assessments of the state of political, economic, and social democracy in india today. Some feel that no democracy is perfect, and despite its many imperfections, india has achieved democratic successes that ought to be envied by many so-called emerging democracies in Latin America and Asia - not to mention the failing ones in Africa. It can be acknowledged that governing 900 million people by democratic means is a major accomplishment.
