Tamil Nadu is distinguished for providing basic public services to nearly all its residents. This book looks at the roots of the state's commitment. It argues that socio-political changes led to greater assertiveness by the common person, forcing governments to work for the welfare of all. Similar changes are happening in India's north in the recent decades, resulting in improved governance and more effective delivery of basic public services.
