Wheels of Administration
The wheels of administration move at a very slow pace and things change only at the ” appropriate time” . But the story of struggle launched by some people like R C Gupta do leave their indelible imprints on the sands of time and ultimately the changes do take place by transforming the society.
This book is interesting and instructive story of struggle by a bureaucrat against the mal-functioning in the administration especially in Jammu and Kashmir where rulers mattered even more than the “rule of law”. It may be mentioned that some tangible changes have taken place now but we still have miles to go for reaching our ultimate goals of justice to all, good governance and service to humanity. R C Gupta’s book is an inspiring and instructive reading for one and all.
