Synopsis Public institutions support good governance, which, in turn, promotes sustainable economic
development and, thereby nurtures the welfare of the people. The vital bond between a people
and its government is that of trust, and these public institutions help maintain that trust. They
serve as the pillars supporting the foundation of a robust and vibrant democracy.
In Rethinking Good Governance, Vinod Rai highlights the strength of each of these pillars and
analyses the circumstances that may have led to their weakening, resulting in the foundations of
our democratic fabric being somewhat shaken. From numerous occasions when parliamentarians
failed to adhere to the decorum expected of lawmakers in the House, the serious deficit of
impartiality and integrity within the Central Bureau of Investigation, to the issue of governance
that has plagued the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), and the imbroglio around
the perceived lack of cohesion between the government and the Reserve Bank of India, Rai reveals
how each of these instances led to a gradual decline of the independence and autonomy of these
institutions over the decade.
