A brief history of india
The story begins on 15 August 1947. Two hundred years of subservience to the British Empire came to an end with the Partition; the violent carving away of British India into Muslim and Hindu-dominated states. On 26 January 1950, the Constitution was adopted, defining India as a sovereign, socialist, secular republic. While shedding British domination, India chose to retain the British two-tiered parliamentary system, made up of a lower house (Lok Sabha) of elected representatives from the states and an upper house (Rajya Sabha) of appointed representatives. India also preserved the British system of common law, in which the Supreme Court is the apex body. Recent elections yielded a hung parliament with the long-ruling Congress party reduced to half its strength in parliament.Many of the coalition partners now in power, were severe critics of the economic reforms initiated by the previous Congress administration.
