This is the first part of the Tamil translation of Ramachandra Guha's India After Gandhi. The official Tamil translation of the English book that has sold millions of copies worldwide. There was a strong feeling that India as a nation would not last forever. In terms of language, culture, religion and culture, there was no unity or unanimity among Indians. This was the situation till the end of the nineteenth century. Not much has changed since independence. Even though the peaceful struggle was won, tens of thousands of people lost their blood. Massacres, religious riots, extremism, sectarianism, demands for a separate nation, caste oppression, untouchability were successive blows to the soul of India. War and peace, poverty and prosperity, embarrassments and achievements, famine and revolution continued to transform India. However, India did not just give up on democracy. Today India is the biggest power in Asia. Economically and politically powerful power. This book fills the gap that the story of post-independence India has not been told much. The story of India is also the story of the world's largest democracy. Ramachandra Guha was born in 1958 in Dehradun. Currently residing in Bangalore. He has lectured at the Universities of Oslo, Stanford, Yale and the Indian Institute of Science. He has written in many fields like history, politics, environment and cricket. Guha's works have been translated into more than twenty languages. Reviews of this book: T. R. Santana Krishnan - 24.08.09
