An Overwhelming Proportion Of The Population Was In Semi-Starving Condition, And The Literacy Had Reached Less Than A Fifth. In This Situation, The Constitution That Came In 1950 Opted For A Parliamentary Form Of Government, And At The Same Time Promised To The People Everything Good In This World. A Socialist Pattern Of Society, Free From Exploitation And Injustices, Was To Be Established. What Happened To The Promises Ultimately? Could The Government Provide Food And Other Basic Necessities To The Semi-Starved Billions? Was The Development Achieved With Half-A-CenturyS Efforts In The Long-Run Interest Of Everybody? Did The Backward Regions And Weaker Sections Get Adequate Attention From The Government? Was The Constitution Of India A Propaganda Material, Meant For Deceiving The Poor Masses? These Are Some Of The Questions Addressed To By This Study. India Is A Vast Country With A Variety Of Socio-Economic Situation.
