  7. Om Prakash Singh

    Excellent book

  8. Harshita

    It was a great experience while reading The book Encounters with Politicians. It brings to light the lesser known facts about bureaucracy and shows what goes on behind the scenes of every policy making. Getting to know the politicians and how they perceive your view points and whether you’re able to implement your idea into an actual policy and its aftermath becomes evident while reading the chapters about various ministers.
    One gets an idea about how a civil servant faces challenges in the system and shows that it is possible to have integrity come what may. The effort of honest civil servants never goes waste and they are the ones who are relied upon during testing times.
    On the whole, I really liked the theme of this book which differed from other autobiographies as it delves deeper into the lesser known facets of actual policymaking upon which the life of an Indian citizen depends.
