N2  - We the People: Establishing Rights and Deepening Democracy, edited by Nikhil Dey, Aruna Roy, and Rakshita Swamy, is a collection of essays that reflect on India’s journey of rights-based legislations and democratic practices. The book highlights landmark struggles and achievements such as the Right to Information, Right to Work (MGNREGA), Right to Food, and other people-centric laws that have strengthened participatory democracy in India. It brings together perspectives from activists, scholars, and practitioners who examine how collective action, grassroots mobilization, and accountability mechanisms have deepened democratic processes
