You can see the history of this struggle preserved in museums and libraries across the country, on your India Travel journey.
The people of India under the leadership of Mahatma Gandhi, the Father of the Nation, launched the biggest mass movement in h history to liberate the country from foreign rule and establish democracy. The founders of modern and resurgent India thought of a country where people irrespective of caste, creed, and religion can live under one umbrella. The vision has given birth to a modern and progressive nation: the Sovereign Socialist Secular Democratic Republic of India, which invites visitors for an India Travel experience.
The Constitution of India is also the most exhaustive document of its kind in the world. It envisages a parliamentary form of democracy, which is federal in structure. Devolution of power is the essence to it.
The success of a democracy depends on the political awareness and participation of its people. As an effort to encourage greater participation of women in decision-making processes, there is provision for 33 percent reservation of seats for women in the elected bodies. As a result, hundreds of women participate in the decision-making process. The preservation of democracy in India has ensured the holding of regular and freely-contested elections, since independence in 1947. The electoral process is well-developed with universal adult suffrage where adults from all levels participate as you'll see on your India Travel journey.
Given its massive population, India's success in developing a civil society with a vibrant democracy in the face of several constraints, is now well recognized. A developing country like India has innumerable problems to overcome and it is working diligently towards those.
Over the last few years, the country has taken gigantic steps to lead the world in information technology. The turnaround has come. India's economy is performing beyond expectations. Indeed, today, Indians can look to the future with optimism and be ready to play their part in the global arena when the opportunity comes.
