Strengthening Cooperative Federalism: Addressing Language Policy, Resource Allocation, and State Autonomy
Description
The Lok Sabha, as the directly elected lower house of India’s Parliament, remains the fulcrum of democratic governance and legislative authority. It reflects the country’s vast plurality while steering the delicate balance of power within India’s federal structure. At VGSMUN'25, the Lok Sabha will confront the pressing challenge of Strengthening Cooperative Federalism—deliberating on issues that define the nation’s unity and diversity. Central to these discussions are the nuanced debates surrounding language policy, equitable resource distribution, and the scope of state autonomy. Against a backdrop of evolving economic landscapes and growing demands for decentralization, delegates must navigate the complexities of federal governance to propose frameworks that reconcile regional aspirations with national integrity. This committee is not merely a legislative forum; it is a crucible where the future of India’s federal equilibrium will be debated and shaped. Delegates are called upon to engage with both constitutional principles and contemporary realities, crafting policies that reinforce cooperative governance and sustain India’s pluralistic democracy.
