Hundred things to know and debate before you vote - Uttar Pradesh HarperCollins 2014 - 242p. color illustrations

One of the biggest elections in the history of independent India is upon us. An election that could transform India and set the bedrock for the future. This book is a shout-out, a call to action to talk about the things that matter—or should matter
— from financial scams to climate change, women’s rights to parliamentary spends. After all, if a democracy has to work, the agenda needs to be set by voters as much as by political parties.Here are some of the people who told us what we should be talking about:
