Indian democracy is a ‘global public good’; its ‘collapse’ will have an impact on world says Rahul Gandhi

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, currently on a six-day tour of the US, has described Indian democracy as a “global public good”. He added that its collapse would negatively impact the world, including US interests, and said he was committed to fighting for it. At a dinner reception, Gandhi also said China offered prosperity but under a non-democratic system, necessitating an alternative countervailing vision for democratic nations.
