No wonder they are called the festival of democracy. To the political parties elections are worth their results. But for us, at the Election Commission of India, elections are worth the voters turnout. It is the voter s turnout in the elections that nourishes the living tree of democracy. If democracy has remained vibrant in India, the credit goes to popular elections. This coffee table book Unfolding Indian Elections: Journey of the living democracy celebrates the spirit of participatory democracy through elections. Its story unfolds through the visuals election photographs taken across the decades.
