The removal of long standing deprivations of the dis- advantaged people of our country may, in effect, be hampered by the biases‘in political pressure, in particular when the bulk of the social agitation is dominated by new problems that generate immediate and noisy discontent among the middle class Indians with a voice. If the politically active threats are concen- trated only on some specific new issues, no matter how important (such as high prices of consumer goods for the relatively rich, or the fear that India’s political sovereignty might be ‘compromised by its nuclear deal with the USA), rather than on the terrible general inheritance of India of acute deprivation,” deficient schooling, lack of medical attention {for the poor, and extraordinary under nourish- ‘ment (especially of children and also of young women), then the pressure on democratic governance acts relentlessly towards giving priority to only those ‘particular new issues, rather than to the gigantic persistent deprivations that are at the root of so much inequity and injustice-in India. The perspec- tive of realization of justice and that of an adequately broad nyaya are central not only to the theory of justice, but also to the practice of democracy. 58.
