Abstract
Understanding the historical connections behind public policy choices is crucial for effective governance, especially in a diverse and vibrant society like India. Many contemporary policies are often seen as immediate responses to current challenges, yet they are deeply rooted in historical frameworks that shape their purpose and design. In this paper, I explore how classical governance models influence modern Indian public policies and examine how this historical continuity impacts their effectiveness and relevance today. By analyzing five key areas—Incrementalism, Ayushman Bharat, Panchayati Raj, Atmanirbhar Bharat, and Reservation policy, I aim to uncover the rich interplay between our past and present. Ultimately, this research advocates for a deeper appreciation of historical context in policy-making, as it can enhance our understanding and response to the evolving needs of Indian society.
