#BookReview A Battle for New India: a story to transform Indian political system by Chandan Sarkar

 

About The Book

"Anyone who says they are not interested in politics is like a drowning man who insists he is not interested in water." - Mahatma Gandhi

This book is a fictional story about Srikanta, a singer-turned-politician, who faces the dark sides of the Indian political system and stands up for a battle against the conventional political parties to change the poor situation of the socio-economic conditions.

My Thoughts

"A Battle for New India" is basically a political fiction that comes with a strong message. Corruption in society is quite a common issue these days.

The story revolves around the protagonist, Srikanta, who used to be a singer. Initially, he was pushed into politics by his college senior, Sumana, but later he devoted his heart and soul to it.

His dream was to build a new India—a society free from corruption and poverty. But the path to establishing a new idea is never easy.

Despite being a short read, this story proved to be quite impactful. The ideas and the turn of events felt quite interesting to read. Written in simple language, the book definitely stands out.
