As India unitedly rose against the British in its final surge for freedom, the country’s passionate atmosphere gave rise to
visionaries and achievers who zealously laid the foundations of a new India. For a young country with ambitious plans, these
bright minds not only earned accolades and made India a force to reckon with but also instilled hope in the hearts of its
beleaguered citizens.
This book brings you the stories of Jagadish Chandra Bose and Janaki Ammal, who made unparalleled contributions to the world of science, Verghese Kurien and his White Revolution, which mobilised milk cooperatives, the strong, independent voice of Sucheta Kripalani, who went on to become the first chief minister in Indian history, and the internationally celebrated hockey wizard Dhyan Chand, whose phenomenal rise to fame continues to inspire.
