About The Book: In this book, Author examines the profound transformations unfolding in India, encompassing political, social, and religious shifts. He underscores the necessity of adopting a resolute stance toward the political situation, given the escalating challenges faced by English officials in governance and the escalating tensions arising from English arrogance and growing Indian autonomy. Cotton advocates for addressing the legitimate ambitions of educated Indians and advocates for a constructive, non-interfering policy during this transitional period.
