Swaraj is a 2012 book by social activist turned politician Arvind Kejriwal. Through this book the author questions the present establishment of the democratic framework in India and tries to show the way forward, what we, the people, and what the opinion makers and political establishment in India can do to achieve true Swaraj (self-rule).
About the book
The book was launched on 29 July 2012 at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi. At the time of launch Arvind Kejriwal said "The book highlights the shortcomings of the current model of centralised governance and explains how the real rule of the people can be brought about." He also said that he would not be earning any royalty from its sale as he wants to reach as many people as possible.
Reception
Senior journalist Vinod Mehta praised Kejriwal's commitment to the cause and said, "Most decisions should be taken at the district and village level and Kejriwal's book outlines how it can be achieved."
