Senior Advocate and Rajya Sabha MP Mahesh Jethmalani and India Today’s Consulting Editor Rajdeep Sardesai discuss the state of the Indian Constitution and its democratic institutions. Jethmalani contends that while there are imperfections and a need for more robust institutions, India is a better functioning democracy than the US and UK. In the discussion, Jethmalani states, ‘Actually, if you ask me today, We are a much better functioning democracy than both the UK and the US.’ The conversation also covers concerns about the judiciary’s role as an umpire, the alleged capture of institutions like the Enforcement Directorate, the fairness of elections, and the protection of individual liberties and minority rights. Jethmalani maintains that the Constitution has stood the test of time and that there is adequate space for dissent in the country.
