  <abstract>	
This volume elaborates on various dimensions of social science research in India, presenting a strong case for designing a comprehensive national social science policy which can meaningfully strengthen and promote a research ecosystem for improved public policymaking in the country. Addressing issues like lack of funding, availability of data, infrastructure and quality of research output, it will serve as a national benchmark and reference database for social sciences in India.</abstract>
