Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the complexities of India in transition, arguing for a radical change in the country's administration. The author delves into the history of various civilizations that have shaped India, including Brahmanical, Islamic, and Western cultures, and their enduring influence on the country's social and political landscape. The book argues that a centralized bureaucratic model of governance is no longer sustainable in a rapidly changing world. Instead, the author proposes a federal basis for India's future, emphasizing the need for a system of representative assemblies and shared power between the government and the people. He cites the example of other countries that have successfully transitioned to more democratic forms of government, stressing the importance of providing a voice to all citizens, particularly the vast rural population. The book also addresses the crucial issues of finance and defense, arguing that India must develop a more robust system of taxation and military preparedness to meet the challenges of the modern world. The author believes that a system of national service, alongside a more representative government, will be crucial to achieving these goals. The author's insights provide a compelling argument for a more democratic and inclusive approach to governing India, one that is firmly rooted in the complexities of the country's past and the realities of its present.
