“The book is a vivid and gripping narrative of multifaceted events, incidents, situations and crises with which the author, in his career in the Indian Police Service, was confronted with and their denouement. They cover policing at the grass roots, communal violence, regional conflicts, militant trade unionism, naxalite depredations, criminalisation of politics, management of public enterprises, and the dynamics of relationship between civil servants and the political executive. His experience as Governor provides interesting insights into the gulf between Constitutional theory and practice”
