Rising Bharat: A Vision for the Future charts an ambitious vision of India's ascent while maintaining its foundational framework. The book proposes novel shifts in governance, advocating for a transition towards a 'Parliament of Meritocracy' and establishing an 'Excellence in Governance' institute dedicated to honing the skills of lawmakers. Exploring the complexities of staggered elections and global leadership, the text navigates India's unified armed forces and its impactful G20 chairmanship. With a future-oriented perspective, the book culminates in a compelling call for substantial reforms, especially within the burdened legal system. Looking ahead to India's centenary in 2047, it challenges conventional practices, envisioning a transformative leap towards a reinvigorated nation rising like a phoenix from the ashes of its untraceable, watery grave. Rising Bharat isn't just a book—it's an inspiring odyssey towards India's rejuvenation.
