In The Mahatma’s Manifesto, Rajesh Talwar offers a searing critique of Gandhi’s Hind Swaraj, dismantling the idealistic and often impractical vision laid out by the father of the nation. With sharp analysis and unflinching clarity, Talwar exposes the contradictions and flaws in Gandhi’s rejection of modernity, industrialization, and Western thought.
Rather than the revered path to freedom, Hind Swaraj emerges as a regressive manifesto, advocating a return to an antiquated past that denies the complexities and potential of a rapidly evolving world. Talwar challenges Gandhi’s vision of self-sufficiency as a blueprint for national development, arguing that it is an isolating, economically stifling fantasy that undermines India’s progress.
