‘The Earth is the Lord’s – Saga of Bhoodan-gramdan Movement’ published

Bhoodan-Gramdan movement is a glorious chapter in the history of Independent India. Never and nowhere in the recorded history has land been collected for the landless on such a scale through moral suasion only. Contrary to popular belief, at least 25 lakh (2.5 million) acres of Bhoodan lands have been distributed so far to the deserving needy persons in a transparent manner.

The Movement not only tried to solve an urgent and complex problem in a non-violent way, but also tried to bring about total transformation in man and society.

‘The Earth is the Lord’s – Saga of Bhoodan-gramdan Movement’, written by Parag Cholkar, is a comprehensive and authentic account of this revolutionary Movement. It presents before us a clear picture of the Movement, answers many questions and dispels many doubts. Besides chronicling the history of the Movement, the book also tries to evaluate it.
