Hello Aspirants,

Indian Polity refers to the system of governance and political institutions in India. India is a federal parliamentary democratic republic with a multi-party system, where the President of India is the head of state, and the Prime Minister is the head of government.

The Constitution of India, adopted on January 26, 1950, is the supreme law of the land and provides the framework for the Indian Polity. The Constitution provides for a separation of powers between the executive, legislative, and judiciary branches of government.

The executive branch is headed by the President, who is elected by an electoral college, and the Prime Minister, who is appointed by the President and is responsible for the day-to-day administration of the country. The executive branch also includes the Council of Ministers, which is made up of ministers appointed by the Prime Minister.

The legislative branch of the Indian Polity consists of two houses: the Rajya Sabha or the Upper House, and the Lok Sabha or the Lower House. Members of the Rajya Sabha are elected by the state legislative assemblies, while members of the Lok Sabha are elected by the people through direct elections.

The judiciary branch of the Indian Polity is headed by the Supreme Court of India, which is the highest court of appeal in the country. The Supreme Court is independent of the executive and legislative branches of government and is responsible for interpreting the Constitution and upholding the rule of law.

India also has a vibrant civil society with active participation from NGOs, media, and citizen groups, which play a crucial role in shaping public opinion and holding the government accountable.

Overall, the Indian Polity is a complex and dynamic system, shaped by the country’s history, culture, and diverse socio-economic realities.
