The fascinating memoir of a man from a small village who, through sheer hard work and tenacity, rose to hold one of the most important posts in the Government of India.
Born in a small village in Maharashtra, Shivraj V. Patil aspired to become a lawyer, like many others in his family. But fate had other plans-it propelled him into politics, where he rose step by step in the Congress party to finally hold the post of Union home minister. In this book he describes his eventful journey starting with his childhood and his idolization of his grandfather and father and going on to his years in the Maharashtra Legislative Assembly, as a minister of state, in the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha and then minister in the UPA government. He shares his many experiences along the way, his views on Congress veterans and his learning`s in the fields of education, marriage laws and science. A must read for those interested in knowing the nitty gritties of Indian politics.
