520			_aIndia federalism, which had an inherent bias towards strong centre, began to take a definitive shape during the 1980s when regional parties emerged as a major force in Indian politics. While the trend that began in the eighties continues, the present context is different and crucial for the shaping of federal polity. Factors underscoring the present conjuncture include the relatively independent and vigorous pursuit of economic reforms at the state level by all hues of political parties, a process which is punctuated by uneven development, regional disparities and increasingly voluble demands of sub-nationalism. - Reproduced.
