The Phenomenon Of Democracy And Development In India

Author(s) Y Satya Kameswari

Abstract Democracy and Development is a persistent study that lays down the path for the interminable growth of the economy in developing countries. They coexist in unity with diversified circumstances and also have their own identity separate from each other. The roots of democratic rule in India can be seen in the Government of India Act of 1935. It had a design for separation of powers, elections etc. With the attainment of freedom in 1947, the makers of the Indian constitution adopted the democratic form of government for the country. In the early years after independence, predictions were made that the Indian political system would eventually collapse because of the country’s diverse population and low per capita income. India, however, has proven its critics wrong and shown the world that democracy has not only thrived and been sustained but has also deepened. Though India had all the advantages of development, due to various invasions and British rule for a very long period have made India underdeveloped. The leaders of the nation at the time of Independence had a very crucial task of developing India in all facets with the limited resources, growing population, illiteracy, unemployment, poverty, and lack of basic amenities for the population. In India, if we have to understand the journey of democracy and development we need to understand the different dimensions of democracy and development in the Indian context. We can classify them as political dimension, economic dimension, social dimension, institutional dimension, cultural dimension and environmental dimension.
