About the Book

In this compelling account, Arvind Kejriwal, a key figure in the anti-corruption movement led by Anna Hazare, discusses the movement’s journey and the challenges it faced. As the government stalled on passing the Lokpal bill, Kejriwal and his colleagues demanded the formation of a Special Investigation Team to probe corrupt politicians. The book details the events surrounding the movement, including Kejriwal’s fast in 2012 and the difficult decision to move towards creating a political alternative to the entrenched system.

The manifesto presents practical suggestions for citizens, opinion makers, and political leaders, proposing ways to bring about true swaraj (self-rule) and build a political alternative that aims for transparency and justice. Kejriwal's reflections serve as both a critique of the current system and a call to action for those who want to see meaningful change in India’s political landscape.
