Poorna Swaraj, through its reading of the Constructive Programme: Its Meaning and Place, opens a window to MK Gandhi’s vision of attaining real and complete Independence or ‘swaraj’ for India. With his ideas on communal unity, prohibition, basic education, emancipation of women, Advisasis’ concerns, farmers’ distress, removal of untouchability, demystification of leprosy, the role of khadi, charkha, village and small-scale industries, among others, this book brings to light Gandhi’s road map for an egalitarian society.
