India is the largest democratic country in the world, in the last fifty years it has travelled and been influenced by multiple social and economic changes. Its independence from Britain in 1947, the partition creating Pakistan and the Pakistan/ Indian debate over Kashmir have been fundamental political movements within these years. As Y.B. Damle states, “Politics is concerned with goal-attainment and politics is the art of possibility” the political process cannot function without structural features.
