This volume covers the period from January 1949 and December 1951. In his roles as the first—and subsequently the last—Indian Governor-General, a cabinet minister without portfolio, and finally as the Minister of Home Affairs, he played a key role in India’s transition to a sovereign Republic. One of Rajaji’s main concerns was establishing relationships of trust between India and its immediate neighbours, including Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Nepal and Afghanistan. Rajaji advised the provisional government on matters that ranged from municipal administration, industry, journalism, agriculture, to education and employment, science and religion, the establishment of central institutions, and the allocation of central funds. We also have tributes paid by him to great personalities such as Bal Gangadhar Tilak, Annie Besant, Kasturba Gandhi, Thakkar Bapa, and Sarojini Naidu.
