Bharat Gyan Vigyan Samithi (India)

• The expectation at the time of independence, fifty years ago, that political freedom and representative democracy will assuage the conditions of the people of India, has obviously not turned out to be true, since people continue to battle with problems of poverty, exploitation and ignorance. This calls for renewed and vigorous efforts towards a participative and democratic social order that can bring about a social change based on justice, equality and cooperation, in reasonable time frames.
