About the seminar : Democracy in India is at crossroads in the contemporary era as it experiences several twists and turns and faces multi-faceted challenges from various stakeholders. Diversity, tolerance, respect for individual dignity, right to dissent and freedom of constructive political expression - our pillars of democracy are losing ground in our society.
The seminar is an attempt to address the factors facilitating the undemocratisation of the social body which in turn legitimizes the normalisation of electoral autocracy.
