Description

Ruchir Sharma's Democracy on the Road offers an intimate view of India's complex politics and its people. Over two decades, Sharma has travelled across every major state, chasing election campaigns and interviewing leaders from top to bottom.

Through his journey, Sharma reveals how family, caste, community, economics, development, money, corruption, Bollywood, and more have shaped the lives of India's politicians and ordinary citizens alike. This is a story of democracy in action, with all its triumphs and challenges.

A fascinating portrait of modern India, Democracy on the Road shows that while democracy may be faltering elsewhere, it remains thriving in this vast and diverse country.
