Pragati - The Indian National Interest Review (ISSN 0973-8460] is a publication on strategic affairs, economic policy and governance. It is published by the Indian National Interest an independent, non-partisan, non-profit community of individuals committed to promoting awareness and education of public affairs.

It advocates economic freedom, realism (international relations), an open society, a culture of tolerance and good governance. The first issue was published in April 2007. As of December 2007, the community edition was available for subscription free of charge.

The inaugural editorial lays out the magazine's mission:

In a land of over a billion minorities, the Indian republic—which owes its existence to the loftiest moral struggle in modern times—presents the best hope for the well-being and development of all its citizens. The survival, security and strengthening of the Indian nation and its institutions, therefore, is not only a matter of supreme moral consequence, but of immense human importance. Frequently imperfect application, repeated attempts at its perversion and creeping cynicism about its effectiveness must not prevent us from recognising that the Constitution of India offers an enlightened way for us to organise our society and ensure the greatest welfare of all citizens. Surely this is something worth defending. We at The Indian National Interest community strongly believe so. Ergo, this publication.
