Abstract:\n
Public policy’s umbilical cord is attached wit
 h the legislation, and its success and failures depend on how legislative p
 rocess has considered the public interest. The legislature through its deli
 berations not only frame the policies but also gives legitimacy to the publ
 ic policy. Therefore, this paper seeks to understand the legislative proces
 s in India by contextualizing the public interests of our daily life and it
 s democratization through legislative process initiated by private members’
  bill (PMBs) in India.  Legislative data on PMBs of last seven decades sugg
 est about the potentials of PMBs and their influences on public policy in I
 ndia, we do need to address few pertinent questions like: 1) Why and how re
 presentative democracies are failing to accommodate larger voices in legisl
 ative process, 2) How public policy theme, its conceptualizations and relat
 ed discourse are getting affected in parliamentary democracies like ours th
 rough such legislative initiatives (PMBs). A revisit to the idea of primacy
  of legislature by analyzing how PMBs data are taking up issues of immediat
 e public concerns and having wider impact on public policy legislations, th
 is lecture argues that modern democracies are being dominated by political 
 party led executives as far as legislative businesses are  concerned. Hence
 , a study of legislative data on PMBs have the potential to enhance the voi
 ces of democratic deliberations and can facilitate the methodological innov
 ations in policy discourse. \n
