Do you think India need to re-examine the efficacy of our political structure? Discuss major political structure issues that need to be urgent attention?

Major areas need re-examine the efficacy of our political structures in India are :

1) The equation between citizens and government and what its implications are for individual freedom, privacy and national security; 

2)The equation between legislature and executive; 

3)The balance of administrative and financial power between provinces and the union on the one hand and provinces and local bodies on the other. The way we elect our representatives to legislatures must also come under the lens.

4) The issue of atrophied local authorities and enfeebled legislatures needs attention. For, they are at the coalface, delivering the state to the citizen.

5)The way legislatures are elected and governments are made and unmade must be scrutinised

6)The relation between the state and economy, its role in allocating resources and addressing questions of inequality, its duty to provide basic human needs, the extent of the market’s role in providing services such as health, education, civic amenities, and the responsibility of the state and private enterprise towards deprived sections, need urgent attention.
