Focusing on the concept of federal asymmetry, this book examines its origins and implications in India, particularly in relation to identity fulfillment, development, and governance. It highlights how asymmetric institutions, especially in border regions, have effectively addressed ethno-cultural diversity and maintained stability. By transforming dissenters into stakeholders, these institutional designs have been pivotal in integrating peripheral areas within the Indian Union. The analysis is supported by archival research, empirical data, and elite interviews, providing a comprehensive understanding of this unique federal approach.
