Overview
This concept highlights critical aspects of governance, accountability, transparency, and the role of Parliament in India's democratic framework. It's relevant for understanding the balance of power between the executive and legislature, and the importance of participatory democracy in policy-making, especially concerning international commitments.
Democratic deficit refers to a perceived shortfall in democratic accountability and transparency, often arising when decisions are made by technocrats or the executive without sufficient oversight from elected representatives or public consultation, particularly in the context of international treaty negotiations.
