For all the importance of parliamentary arithmetic, Indian democracy has always drawn its strength from the space between Parliament and the street. Dharmendra Pradhan’s resignation as India's education minister is the latest reminder that governments cannot govern by numbers alone.
A section respects him for the causes he has taken; another feels he changes his political stance often. Will the real Sonam Wangchuk please stand up?
Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) national general secretary and former Member of Parliament Dushyant Gautam responds to questions on Dharmendra Pradhan’s resignation, student anger, demands for ministerial accountability and the Opposition’s allegations of political failure. Edited excerpts from an interview with Ashlin Mathew.

SubscribeThe resilience of Indian democracy lies less in the certainty of its institutions than in the persistence of its citizens. Across decades, governments with formidable parliamentary strength have learnt that political authority cannot rest on electoral arithmetic alone. It must be sustained by a continuing conversation with the people.

This issue of Outlook examines how a movement led largely by young Indians reaffirmed an old principle of the Republic: that power derives its legitimacy not only from the vote, but also from accountability.
