In:
Indian Journal of Public AdministrationSummary: Development is a major subject of debate in contemporary times because of the tremendous impact it has in terms of its consequences over the socio-economic lives of the people in general and political destiny of the nation-states in particular. As a major objective of the nation-states, developmental pursuits have generated more problems than solutions, thereby throwing challenges of evolving alternative models of development. The vision of creating an ideal society based on equity and justice through the implementation of developmental goals is often confronted with problems of conflicting interests, which finally degenerates into violent manifestations. This article attempts to establish a positive correlation between development and decentralisation, which forms the cornerstone of the Gandhian vision of Swaraj.
