Publisher's Synopsis
In this succinct and timely book, Mr Noorani reviews the strengths and weaknesses of India′s parliamentary system - whether it serves the basic needs and objectives of the Indian polity or, whether a systemic change is required.
The author then considers whether the presidential system would be more appropriate for Indian political conditions. He concludes that the existing cabinet system is perhaps better equipped to deal with the complexities of the current Indian political situation.
