Has the Gandhi-Ambani Family Power Peaked?



The families motivate anti-intellectualism as the Gandhi’s donot believe in helping the poor and even Ambani’s are powerful still they don’t wish to light up the desires or ambitions. Both are at the crossroads of modern India as the Gandhi’s can’t rely on their inherited legitimacy and they need to incorporate themselves in modern terms as a proper organisation. Even the Ambani’s need modern professionalism as they fail to compete in the genuine market. They know that power established on the random judgement can have limits but they still happen to depend on it.

The another crossroad for them is the new federal structure of India that ensures that there will be political competition and also that from time to time the rival capitalists arise who can manipulate the power of the state. They know that these problems are not that severe to triumph over them but they can’t completely have their way. They have power but they can’t use it to produce more power and so both the Indian democracy and Indian capitalism is stuck. The Indian democracy is trying hard to search for ways of negotiation at the centre that can sidestep the Gandhi’s and big capitals are busy in manipulating the state rather than promoting innovation.

So basically what we can conclude is that their competitors are not that strong enough to dethrone them but both the families are also not strong to have their way out.
