contents <p><span lang="EN-IN">In 1947, India achieved independence via a process known as 'the transfer of power.' Nonetheless, most of what we've seen in independent India may be linked to 'legacies' of some kind. Was India's liberation a break also with the past or a continuation of it? Could India, as Nehru said, the transition from the old towards the new? These are the problems that historians struggle with, given the evident continuities in not just institutions of government, but also the principles that underpin these institutions. Was the transformation that India experienced after independence purely cosmetic. There is also the claim that the effects of over 200 years of colonization seem to have been established in India's culture, economy, and politics merely under its length. Rajasthan's administration, like that of the majority of Indian states, is governed by the constitution of 1950. The governor is the head of state, and he is selected by the government of India for a five-year tenure. The governor is assisted and advised either by the Council of Ministers, which is led by a chief minister and reports to the unicameral Legislative Council (Vidhan Sabha); members elected by adult franchise, with some seats reserved for representatives of Scheduled Tribes as well as other historically impoverished communities (Scheduled Castes). There are moreover 30 districts in the state. Its collector, who is now the local magistrate, is the administration's main representative in each district.</span></p>
