ABOUT THIS BOOK

Second in the series of Dr Madhav’s musings, The Indian Reality: Changing Narratives, Shifting Perceptions is the story of the new reality that has overtaken countries and populations. The diversified agendas of altered societies call for newer understanding and discourses. This has also enthused a new wave of excitement in India too. The last decade was witness to a tectonic transformation in almost every walk of national life.

Dr Madhav, through his essays on the new agendas of society, contemporary Hindutva, lessons from history, the idea of good governance and India’s outreach with the world, not only maps the journey of change but paints a forward-looking canvas of a society on the move.

The Indian Reality is a must-read for those who want to get a bird’s eye view of what will interest the world as the twenty-first century paces ahead.
