Since India started experimenting with the parliamentary system, many changes have taken place in the functioning of the structures adopted, the conventions, and the norms of functioning of the system. As a result, our Parliament (Sansad) has emerged as a âmodelâ by itself. This book focusses our attention primarily on this vibrant and live aspect of our parliamentary system. This is one of the few studies which concentrates on the actual functioning of the two Houses of Parliament and covers the constitutional as well as the political aspects. It also describes the Executive and the Judicial Institutions and analyses their interrelations with the Legislature. Topics like parliamentary privileges, anti-defection enactment and the controversies which arose during its implementation, the innovation in the committee system of the Parliament, and the judicial decisions and case law pertaining to some relevant issues are specially discussed. The use of authentic sources and an objective analysis of current problems challenging the viability and credibility of our system has made this book a valuable addition to the literature on the subject. The book addresses itself not only to the students of our political system but also to the peopleâs representatives who are entrusted with the responsibility of keeping our democratic institutions clean, efficient and still responsive to a dynamic society. It may also attract the attention of enlightened readers who want to know how democracy actually functions in our society.
