Authors(1) :-Niranjan Kumar Mistri
- India is one of the largest countries of the world, such large that it imbibes the character of continent popularly known as subcontinent. The landmass provides life, liberty, property and security to the billions (1.35 billion). India is appreciated by the world for its multi-cultural, multi-ethnic and multi-lingual society where all people from different class, caste, gender and religion lives harmoniously for centuries. After the independence of India from draconian colonial rule, she became the exemplar of secularism and democracy despite having so much social cleavages. Hindus in majority and six other minority religions such as Islam, Buddhism, Sikhism, Jainism, Christianity, Zorastranian, Jews represents the India’s religious fabric is to make this country liveable for all.
India is one of the largest and procedurally successful democracies. Indian State is characterised by welfare State. The gradually India has achieved the status of one fastest emerging mighty State of 21st century. It is not only emerging economies but entered in the most elite league of countries in the field of science and technology. India’s might in science and technology move it towards digitalisation of transactions in any form. Indian governments are making relentless effort take out the millions of people from poverty and hunger by focussing on good governance, which is focussed on reducing entrenched corruption and price rise of commodities. India’s development demands uninterrupted energy for which India is reducing reliance on petroleum and converging renewable energy sector to fulfil the demands. Urbanisation in India is about making cities smart but Indian Government is concentrating on making its villages smart by decentralising the development make it not vertically but horizontally. My paper is about enquiry to the relations between development of politics and politics of development. There is trend, which has been observed that India’s political society is swerving from civil society. This paper is trying to enquire about this divergence.
