Rate this book
इंदिरा गांधी का 1969 से 1972 का जो प्रधानमंत्री कार्यकाल था उस अवधि में प्रशासन व्यवस्था पर आधारित यह वैचारिक रचना तैयार की गयी है. 1969 - 1972 का यह कार्यकाल इंदिरा गांधी के लिए चुनौतीपूर्ण था. उस समय की स्तिथि बहुत ही गंभीर व कठिन थी, जिसे इंदिरा गांधी ने समाज के सामने स्पष्ट करके भविष्य के लिए सफल योजनाएं बनाने का प्रयत्न किया. इस पुस्तक में इंदिरा गांधी के कार्यकाल का सन्दर्भ देकर प्रधानमंत्री पद के व्यक्ति विशेष को सरल शब्दों में पाठकों तक पहुंचाने का प्रयास किया गया है. वस्तुतः यह रचना उच्चकोटि की है तथा राजनीतिज्ञ, उद्यमी, प्राध्यापक, अध्यापक एवं छात्र - छात्राओं के लिए पढ़ने योग्य है.

About the author

Laxman Rao

74 books45 followers
Laxman Rao, the author of 30 Hindi books, completed his postgraduation in M.A. (Hindi Literature) from Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU). He has been awarded by various trusts and organizations.

Also, he was invited to the President House to meet
former President of India Smt. Pratibha Patil along with his family on 23 July, 2009.

In addition to his achievements, he has also been invited to many schools, universities, educational institutions, corporate seminars and NGO's as a guest lecturer.


Born to a farmer in a village in the western state of Maharashtra, Laxman Rao left for Delhi in 1975 to fulfill his dream of becoming a writer. He worked as a labour, washed dishes at restaurants and finally managed to open a shop in 1977 to sell paan (betel leaves), beedi (hand-rolled cigarettes) and cigarettes on Vishnu Digamber Marg, near ITO in New Delhi. After a few years, he started selling tea as it was more profitable.

He worked hard to publish his books, but all his meetings with publishers ended in disappointment as nobody was willing to bet their money on a book written by a roadside vendor. Undeterred, he saved up enough to self-publish his first novel in 1979. Turbulent lives, the struggle to rise above grinding poverty and the ordinary pleasures of life are the themes on which Laxman Rao's novels, political essays and plays are based.

His best-selling novel ‘Ramdas’ which was first published in 1992 - explores the complexities of the teacher-student relationship through the story of a young, wayward student from Laxman Rao's village who drowned in a river. The book now in its third edition, has sold more than 4,000 copies till date.

In May 1984, Laxman Rao met the then Prime Minister of India Mrs. Indira Gandhi. She appreciated his work and encouraged him to write more. When Laxman Rao expressed his wish to write a book on her she insisted that the book should be on her work rather than a commentary on her life. Enthused by this meeting, Laxman Rao wrote a play based on the tenure of a Prime Minister titled 'Pradhan Mantri' (Prime Minister) but she was shot dead before Laxman Rao could present it to her.

The tea-selling author has won many awards and also received recognition from former Indian President Mrs. Pratibha Patil.

"His books are doing very well on our site. We are happy that authors like Mr. Laxman Rao have found a platform such as ours to sell his books," a spokesperson for Amazon India told the BBC.
