Singh, Baljit; Vajpeyi, Dhirendra K.
The period of Nehru's administration of India, 1974-1964, is statistically analyzed for political continuity and stability by examining the office terms of chief ministers for the Indian states during that time. After a brief introduction, the document mainly consists of statistical tables. A summary table of percentage turnover of ministers and another of their longevity in office are provided as an overview. Tables are included for each state: Andra, Andhra Pradesh, Assam, Bihar, Jammu and Kashmir, Madhya Pradesh, Madras, Mysore, Orissa, Punjab, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, West Bengal, Bombay, Gujarat, Hyderabad, Kerala, Madhya Bharat, Maharashtra, Saurashtra, and Travancore-Cochin. In each table, chief ministers are listed with data for their service years, total number of years served, and remarks. Most tables have summary comments. (ND)
