Answer:

Since independence India has been functioning as a responsible democracy. The

same has been appreciated by international community. It has successfully

adapted to the challenging situations. There have been free and fair periodic

elections for all political offices from the panchayats to the President. There has

been smooth transfer of political power from one political party or set of political

parties to others, both at national and state levels on many occasions. You will

find many examples in our neighbouring countries like Pakistan, Myanmar and

even Bangladesh where transfer of power has been done through military coups.

The legislative, executive and judicial organs have been functioning properly.

The Parliament and the State Legislatures control the Executives effectively

through the means like question hours, etc. More importantly, some significant

enactments like the Right to Information (RTI) Act 2005, Right to Education

2009 and other welfare means have empowered the people. The mass media,

including print and electronic, have full autonomy and play a key role in

formulating and influencing public opinion. Significant social change has taken

place in almost all walks of life and the nation is moving ahead on course of

socio-economic development.

India is a very large country full of diversities – linguistically, culturally,

religiously. At the time of independence it was economically underdeveloped.

There were enormous regional disparities, widespread poverty, illiteracy,

unemployment, and shortage of almost all public welfare means. Citizens had

enormous expectations from independence. As mentioned above, India has

changed a lot. Yet, there are various challenges that the country faces in terms

of fulfillment of expectations of various sections of society. The challenges come

both from prevailing domestic and international conditions as well as lack of

adequate prerequisites for a smooth functioning of democracy.
