Mahatma Gandhi was a practical idealist. But we have ignored the path he prescribed. Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, shortly before his death admitted that the predicament that the country faced was rooted in the deviation from the Gandhian path. The book is the compilation of my articles and letters, published mainly in the Statesman bearing essence of his thoughts and personality.
First of all, I am grateful to my wife, Aparna, for her incessant support and encouragement. I deeply remember and express my heart-felt gratitude to late Sisir Sanyal of Gandhi Vichar Parishad, Bankura, from whom I learnt a lot as to the art of applying ideals of Mahatma Gandhi to uplift the rural poor through sustainable village development. I am thankful to Mr. Ravindra Kumar, the Editor and Managing Director of the Statesman, who has placed me under a deep debt of gratitude for publication of my articles and letters regularly as well as for giving me per-mission to re-use those articles and letters in the book. I would also like to thank Debajyoti Kar of Codex, the publisher, for his encouragement and valuable suggestions to make the book attractive. Finally, I thank my well wishers.
