Twenty-five years of high growth have made India one of the world’s fastest-growing economies. A majority of Indians will soon emerge from a struggle against want. Yet, faced with corruption, many Indians wonder why they need a government at all. With an eye to the next elections in India, Gurcharan Das argues that a strong liberal state, created to decide and to act, must be tough on corruption and unresponsive bureaucracy.
