Democracy, representing the will of the people, is the least imperfect form of government in the present day world.  Yet even this will of the people can't  remain unfettered, for without constitutional limits,  democracy is often distorted. What then are the challenges to India's constitutional democracy? In this episode of BIC Talks, Rajeev Bhargava, Founder-Director, Parekh Institute of Indian Thought, Centre for the Study of Developing Societies, will speak of the multiple obstacles to Constitutional Democracy but will focus on deep rooted, long standing mental and social habits that prevent the smooth functioning of constitutional democracy in India. This is an excerpt from a conversation that took place in the BIC premises in August 2024. Subscribe to the BIC Talks Podcast on your favorite podcast app!
