Considering that modern political scientists and observers are baffled by the paradoxes and chaos of India, maybe we could look at the situation with the paradigm of an "unwritten constitution" in operation that holds everything together.
Maybe the deeply embedded social norms and traditions carry out functions that the written constitution does not. Looking only at the "formal" power structure won't be enough for a full understanding of the Indian polity.
