Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Humanities and Social Science - Year 2018, Vol 23, Issue 2
Abstract
Good governance emerged as a powerful idea when multilateral and bilateral agencies like World Bank, UNDP, OECD, ADB, etc realized that it is a citizen friendly, citizen caring and responsive administration. In absence of good governance, no development schemes can bring any improvement in the quality life of the citizens. On the other hand, if the power of the state, exercised in improper ways then the poor will suffer the most, as poor governance generates and reinforces corruption, poverty etc, so it is essential to strengthen the governance and it is also the precondition for to improve the lives of the poor. The concept of good governance plays important role in the modern governmental system. No doubt people are now a day‟s very conscious and they are always aware about the day to day functioning of the government. So the government has to satisfy the general people and good governance creates an environment for this. India‟s democratic experience of past six decades has clearly established that good governance must aim at expansion of social opportunities and removal of poverty. As in his famous “tryst with destiny” speech on 14 Aug, 1947, J.L.Nehru articulated the challenges to good governance as, ending of poverty and ignorance and disease and inequality of opportunities. So the author perceives good governance as securing justice, empowerment, employment and efficient delivery of services. This paper is intended to examine the framework of good governance in India. The paper is also intended to examine the challenges and prospects of good governance in India. The methodology will be qualitative in nature and secondary sources will be used and examined. The secondary source includes Books, Magazines, Journals and Newspapers etc.
