2. Discuss what constitutes good governance in the context of India. Also mention some aspects of social justice and discuss how good governance can act as a facilitator towards securing justice.

Approach:

♤ First discuss what good governance means. Try to explain the concept holistically. Then taking India as a point of departure, discuss what good governance means in the specific context of India. While doing so, keep in mind the main challenges that we face as a nation and scrutinize whether good governance should be one that help us deal with those challenges as a nation.

♤ Next, explain the concept of social justice. Keep the difference between western and Indian notions of social justice in mind and bring out clearly how these differ.

♤ Finally, explain how various aspects of social justice would be relevant only if they can be secured. Here discuss how good governance can act as a facilitator towards securing justice and how securing justice is itself an important aspect of good governance.
