Synopsis

Reconstructing India is a non-fiction book written by Mokshagundam Visvesvaraya in 1920. The book discusses the challenges faced by India during the early 20th century and proposes solutions for the country's development. Visvesvaraya was a renowned engineer and statesman who played a significant role in the development of modern India.The book is divided into four parts and covers a wide range of topics such as agriculture, industry, education, and public health. Visvesvaraya argues that India needs to focus on developing its natural resources, improving its infrastructure, and promoting scientific education to achieve progress. He also emphasizes the importance of self-reliance and encourages Indians to support local industries.The book provides a detailed analysis of India's economic and social conditions during the colonial period and highlights the need for reforms. Visvesvaraya's ideas were ahead of his time, and many of his proposals, such as the establishment of a planning commission and the development of hydroelectric power, were later implemented by the Indian government.Overall, Reconstructing India is a seminal work that provides valuable insights into the challenges faced by India during the early 20th century and offers practical solutions for the country's development. The book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history and development of modern India.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Government of India A ct, it is necessary to study Indian political, economic and social problems in a new light. It is the spirit and intention of the A ct to prepare the country for full responsible government, and it should certainly be the endeavour of the people to remove at once every stumbling block from their path and to take the most complete advantage of this new opportunity. The Indian mind needs to be familiarized with the principles of modern progress, a universal impulse for inquiry and enterprise awakened, and earnest thinking and effort promoted.
