About Pragati
Pragati is an online magazine that provides commentary about current affairs and public policy. We believe that the national interest is best served by safeguarding individual liberties.
Some of the themes we care about: economic freedom, realism in international relations, an open society, a culture of tolerance and an emphasis on good governance.
For more, read our relaunch editorial by Amit Varma: ‘The Return of Pragati.’
