520			_aWhen India is marching to celebrate seventy-five years of Independence, Indian politics has undergone several changes. India has seen one-party dominance, the Emergency period, multi-party alliances, a crisis to the Constitution and much more. Many political parties and socio-political movements have come and gone through the passage of time. Many new streams of thoughts, personalities and movements have emerged. But whatever exists now owes its existence to the legacy of the previous years. Hence, it is necessary to understand and have a general idea of politics of post-colonial India. This article seeks to draw an overview of the political history of India since its Independence up to the current period; from the Congress System after Independence, to the Emergency period under Indira Gandhi, and finally the surge and dominance of the BJP in 2014 and 2019. Focus would be laid on major issues and debates of the respective periods: Current political issues, such as the Citizenship Amendment Act, protests over the farm laws and other issues have raised the debate on the wording of the Preamble and the rights guaranteed by the Constitution of India. – Reproduced
