India is not New Delhi and New Delhi is not India, though sometimes this gets forgotten. Distance from Delhi is a collection of essays and articles that reflect on India’s national interest – on economic reforms, international relations, public policy, national security and social transformation. The authors of this book are pioneers at the Takshashila Institution and have helped make it an innovative institution that brings together insights from various disciplines to the pubilc policy discourse in India. Takshashila engages in policy research, education and public persuasion to strengthen the intellectual foundations of an India with global interests. Removed from Delhi’s corridors of power and circles of influence, this book compiles fresh thinking and bold perspectives on India and its dynamic relationship with the world.
