Democracy in India is known to be the largest in the world, if not the strongest. Our aim is to make democracy in India stronger. The beauty of Democracy lies in the fact that we have diversity of ideas and opinions. The Monthly Online Magazine "Indian Democracy" respects this diversity of India and invites commentaries, short essays, short articles etc to have a healthy discussion on the issues democracy in India is facing since Independence. Any original writing on Indian Politics, Society and Economy etc is welcomed. We have distinguished scholars as our Editorial Board Members and Editorial Advisory Board. We follow double blind review process and request authors to see our Guide to Authors Page on the site. The decision of Editorial Board on received content/s is final only if the Editor in Chief has no objection to it.
We are bilingual and welcome writings in both Hindi and English.
