It is an attempt by Alexis Foundation to introduce the practical aspects of the Indiangovernance system and to present a hands on experience of the decision makingprocess in the Indian legislative system. Although, the Model United Nations format hasmade deep inroads into the Indian colleges, there was always a lack felt of a systemwhich could provide an insight into the Indian legislative system.

Alexis Group, the organisers of the Model Indian Governance and the InternationalYouth Forum looking into the shortfalls of the existing framework has hence planned theIndian Governance Forum from 25th – 30th June, 2013 at the Hill Town of Dharamshalaand its suburb Mcleod Ganj more famous as the Home of the Tibetan Government inexile.
