From the Editor
Was the roadmap drawn by the first Prime
Minister of India, Jawaharlal Nehru, accurate? Did Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi
play a constructive and dynamic role in the freedom movement? Was Indira
Gandhi’s stint as Prime Minister of India in the post-Independence era
defensible? Delving into the past invariably yields a million debates.
Innumerable books have been written on countless aspects of history. It behoves
us to keep this in mind in the current context—Prime Minister Narendra Modi is
rousing everybody over the contributions of Mahatma Gandhi, Vallabhbhai Patel,
Nehru and Indira. Who was more beneficial, Patel or Nehru? Should Indira be
condemned for butchering democracy in the party and the country? There are many
schools of thought, fiercely jousting away.
