The most populous democracy in the world, the State of India, borders Bangladesh, China, Pakistan, Bhutan, Nepal and Myanmar, and has coastlines on the Indian Ocean, Arabian Gulf and Bay of Bengal. Since independence and the violent partition from Pakistan in 1947, India has maintained a federal and democratic system characterised by strong central institutions but frequent changes of national government and short lived coalitions between different parties. India’s major human rights issues include torture and killings by the police, abuses related to the conflict in Kashmir and prejudice against particular social, religious or ethnic groups.
