Introducing the theme, Dr. Sandeep Shastri, the Pro Vice-Chancellor of Jain (Deemed-to-be University) and representing the South Asia Barometer on the Panel, focused on the recent report published by the group which highlighted the fact that the support for democracy is linked to three critical factors: the citizen perception of the working of democracy, the economic performance of governments and whether the citizens perceive democracy as delivering tangible results. On South Asia, he highlighted the trend towards the democratic regimes being reduced to 'election only democracies' and the gap between the hope of a democratic 'dividend' and the reality of a democratic 'deficit'.
