520 _aThis biography of Dr Rajendra Prasad has grown out of the conviction that among all the major political figures of the Indian freedom movement Rajendra Prasad remained closest to the Gandhian ideals of Truth and Nonviolence. His contribution to the constructive work of social reform and inculcating true patriotic fervour among the masses on a national level has been incomparable. Even in charting the course of the freedom movement, defining its policy framework and structuring a constitutionally sound democratic system forthe nation, he occupies a position that remains unparalleled. He is like a colossus striding the Indian political arena for nearly three decades on either side of India’s tryst with freedom. The present book is an humble attempt to recreate a unique life of patriotic dedication-in times when a vast multicultural nation was awakening from its centuries old deep slumber and inertiastriding along the path of immortality, following in the foot steps of Gandhi, the great modern crusader of truth and nonviolence, of peace and harmony, with full conviction and faith in his master’s spiritual reinterpretation of a modern indian political history.
