An Undocumented Wonder

Autor S. Y. Qurais
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 26 aug 2025
Elections in India generate both wonder and interest globally. Polls have been held at regular intervals in the country since Independence, and on an unprecedented scale, surmounting the massive challenges posed by the geography of the land and the mind-boggling diversity of the Indian populace. How does the Election Commission of India overcome these challenges? What is the secret behind its uninterrupted success? What ideals and principles drive the people who are involved in accomplishing this mammoth task? And how did India emerge as the ' Global Gold Standard' in conducting elections, as observed by Hillary Clinton? An Undocumented Wonder: The Making of the Great Indian Elections answers these and many more questions about what has often been termed the ' biggest management event of the world' . A firstperson account of the recent electoral history of India, this educative and perceptive book brings to the reader the author's experiences, knowledge and insights from the time when he served as an Election Commissioner and, later, as Chief Election Commissioner of India.
