 This book is not an attempt to compress events and present my views but only to chronicle what was witnessed as a journalist and reported by me during various assignments. I did not create events nor influenced them but only reported them as I saw them. In my times most of us were told clearly that we could only report; as comments were sacred and would be done by seniors or those writing for the editorial page.  We had a vast canvas to cover. India, after a long time had entered a new age with new goals. Today we can take pride at being a nuclear power, an IT hub, at having set up institutes of excellence in all fields.  Agreed much more needs to be done, but nations are not made like fast food. We can take pride at our many accomplishments and in the fact that we have a democracy and rule of law while countries that became free at the same time have repeatedly come under army rule or have got divided. This book is my tribute to a Free India in which I grew up and worked.
