21. Mr Guha argues that democracy and nationhood in India face several challenges. Four of these are: • Religious fundamentalism (an intense loyalty to a particular way of practicing religion, strong resistance to change) was once all over India, but is only fading very slowly. • Government suffers from corruption. The police and bureaucracy are not independent but work for particular political parties. • Scarcity of resources is leading to conflict and inequality. The poor suffer most from lack of resources, infrastructure (like schools, roads , plumbing and electricity) and water pollution. • The gap between rich and poor is increasing. One example: India's richest man, MukeshAmbani, is worth more than $20bn, and his new home is a 27-storey high, 400,000 sqft building in Mumbai, where 60% of the population live in grimy slums
