Polity Series

Introduction

Indian Polity is one of the most important and high-scoring subjects in the UPSC Civil Services Preliminary Examination. Every year UPSC asks several MCQs from core constitutional concepts along with current governance developments.

Nature of subject

Broadly, the study of Indian Polity can be understood in two major dimensions: the Philosophical Dimension of the Constitution and the Administrative or Institutional Dimension of Governance.

1. The philosophical part deals with the core values, ideals, and guiding principles on which the Indian Constitution is based. It helps students understand the vision of the Constitution makers and the normative foundations of Indian democracy.

  • Historical background of the Constitution
  • Making of the Constitution
  • Ideals reflected in the Preamble
  • Fundamental Rights
  • Directive Principles of State Policy
  • Fundamental Duties.

2. The second dimension of Polity focuses on the institutional and administrative functioning of the Indian state. It explains how constitutional provisions are implemented through various organs and institutions of government.

  • Structure and functioning of Parliament
  • Structure and functioning of State Legislatures
  • Union executives
  • State executives
  • Centre state relations
  • Judiciary
  • Local bodies
  • Constitutional and Non constitutional bodies
