It delves into the vibrant and multifaceted journey of Indian democracy, exploring topics that are pivotal to understanding the workings of the Indian Parliament and the country's democratic ethos.
The essays span a broad range of subjects, from the history and symbolism of the Indian National Flag, constitutional values, to contemporary issues like marriage equality following the Supreme Court's 2023 verdict. The book also sheds light on the inner workings of Parliament, such as procedural tools available to MPs, budgetary processes, and no-confidence motions, offering readers a deeper appreciation of parliamentary traditions and mechanisms.
The volume stands as a valuable resource for students, scholars, and anyone intrigued by the nuances of India's democratic journey. With a foreword by Mallikarjun Kharge, Leader of Opposition in the Rajya Sabha, this compilation is both a tribute to and a guide for understanding the enduring legacy and evolving dynamics of Indian democracy.
Through this collection, the author not only shares insights into parliamentary procedures and historical contexts but also engages with contemporary debates, making it a timely and thought-provoking addition to literature on Indian polity.
