Description
Fiction, socio political, related to the political situation of India in the aftermath of Independence, in 1947. The Higher Education system, so painstakingly built by the British in India, before they left the country, was mercilessly dismantled and systematically destroyed by politicising the Universities and Colleges of the country. The result was the academic atmosphere of these institutions were thoroughly polluted and destroyed with in a decade. This ingenious process of replacement of human excellence by mediocrity brought maximum damage to the fabric of higher education, more particularly to scientific research for which Indian scientists were recognised in the world by the time India won her independence. The picture of this historical debacle of the country has been graphically depicted in this land mark work of fiction, titled Dharitria Kanda ( Weeping Earth).
