The two booklets, which will be given to G20 delegates, present India as the mother of democracy.
The Centre has released two booklets ahead of the G20 summit that traces history of the country since 6000 BCE. These will be handed over to the visiting dignitaries. Titled 'Bharat, The Mother of Democracy' and 'Elections in India', these booklets will be handed over to the visiting dignitaries. Soft copies of these documents have been uploaded on the official website of G20. The 40 pages in the two booklets talk about Ramayana and Mahabharata, Chhatrapari Shivaji, Akbar and India's transition of power through general elections.
