About The Book: Kamandakiya Nitisara, or the Elements of Polity, highlights the ancient Hindus' excellence in metaphysical and theological debates. Their literature delves into philosophy and the unification of humanity with divinity. While some argue that ancient Indian literature lacks practical guidance, it also addresses morals and politics. The Rajdharma section in the Mahabharata presents a beautiful account of the Science of Polity. Originally comprising ten million chapters, it was gradually condensed by sages, culminating in Chanakya's hundred-verse reform at the end of the Rishi era. This work's dedication to Chandragupta and its unique approach have sparked scholarly discussions, as noted in Siddhanta Muktavali. About The Editor: Manmatha Nath Dutt (1855–1912) was a distinguished Bengali writer and a renowned scholar proficient in Sanskrit and Pali. He held prominent positions as a rector in educational institutions like Keshab Academy and Serampore College.

Dutt's achievements included a translation of Mahanirvan Tantra and a comprehensive book on the life, teachings, and order of Buddha. In the preface of the latter, he stated that it was based on all available works in Sanskrit and Pali.
