This bibliography is a classified list of published research material on the contemporary Indian political system. The research references assembled have been organized under three broad categories: Indian political institutions, Indian political behavior, and public policy issues. The political institutions section focuses on the presidency, parliament, supreme court, bureaucracy, and the cabinet. The political behavior section includes electoral behavior, public opinion, ethnic politics, and political partisan behavior. The public policy section covers populations, foreign policy, agriculture, and education. Divided into 22 sub-categories, the references are organized alphabetically within the topics. (Author/JAG)
