Disempowerment of Indian bureaucracy a class analysis. 1995 p.119-22 14 Jan "A bureaucracy becomes autonomous and exercise power when the process of class formation is weak or when no class is dominant in a society. Once a class becomes dominant, the autonomy of the bureaucracy ceases to exist and it becomes an instrument in the hands of the dominant class. In India, the growth of classes was stunted during the Mughal and British rule, in the post-colonial situation, no class was dominant. Since the Indian bourgeoisie is now in the process of establishing its dominance, Indian bureaucracy will soon lose its autonomy and power" Bureaucracy - India Civil service - India Economic and Political Weekly 28503 28503 28503 0 0 0 0 IIPA IIPA 2018-07-19 Volume no: 30, Issue no: 2 AR28612 2018-07-19 2018-07-19 AR
