Varanasi During the Last Days of the 'Raj'

This book "Varanasi during the Last Days of the Raj", presents a broad picture and idea of the social organization prevailing during the last days of British rule, also political picture of Varanasi in national politics and communal harmony through describing relations between different communities. Even what appears to be a characteristic development of inter community relations in the last days of the Raj has been overlooked. And, the most important is, how citizens of the newly born country welcomes a democratic nation. The study of a city, which claims to be microcosm of India, may be a best way to look at the manoeuvre of the India after independence.
