About The Book: The book explores the theme of educational reconstruction in India, delving into Michael Sadler's recognition of India's cultural influence in politics, art, literature, and education. The author analyzes the significant changes in India over the past 15 years, drawing parallels with the European Renaissance and highlighting an internal upheaval across various life aspects. By critiquing the dogmatic and ineffective Anglo-Indian education system rooted in missionary initiatives, the narrative underscores the necessity for a national education system that aligns with Indian values to drive social reconstruction. The historical context exposes a discrepancy with native beliefs, impeding intellectual and moral development. The text concludes by expressing gratitude and referencing studies on national education and vernaculars in secondary schools.
