It reveals a panoramic view of the economy of the country and its foreign affairs by a seasoned and mature politician. About the Author Chandra Shekhar who was born on April 17, 1927 at Ibrahimpatti, a remote village in the district of Ballia (U.P.), received his early education in a village school and completed his M.A. (Political Science) from Allahabad University. He was called upon to lead the Socialist Party at the state level in 1955 and holding the post of General Secretary of the Praja Socialist Party, he was elected to the Rajya Sabha in 1962. Shekhar was incarcerated in a solitary confinement for 19 months during the Emergency (1975). After the Janata Party came to power in 1977 he was chosen to lead the party as its President. Shekhar became the Prime Minister of India in 1991 at a very critical juncture of Indian politics and successfully handled the explosive situation prevalent at that time. Shekhar's other published works include: Dynamics of Social Change, Men Jail Diary (2 Volumes); Zindagi Ka Kaarvam Rachnatmak Bechaini Mein; Uthal-PuthalAur Dhruvikaran Ke Beech; Chandra Shekhar Ke Vichar, Ek Doosre Shikhar Se. The translation of his Jail Diary is shortly to be published in English and Marathi also. Presently he is heading the Ethics Committee of Lok Sabha.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9788122006735\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.9 x 5.1 x 0.6 inches\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Konark Publishers Pvt.Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":66921368060208,"sku":"DRG.KonarkPublishers_8122006736","price":441.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/21CpYN7TCML.jpg?v=1781091958","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/bn\/products\/the-quest-the-hurdles-a-socialist-testament-economic-and-foreign-affairs-volume-ii","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
