Publisher's Synopsis
Seventy-five years after Independence, India has much to be proud of. We are the world's biggest democracy as well as the fastest-growing large economy. Yet, we also face profound challenges that hinder both individual well-being and aggregate growth, including education and skills, health and nutrition, public safety, justice, social protection, and jobs. This seminal book systematically analyses India's governance challenges, especially in delivering essential public services, and highlights how these are limiting India's development.
