Visionary and reformer, leader and task master, Nitin Gadkari envisions India's road infrastructure to be like that of America to make India prosperous

Nitin Gadkari, Union Minister of Road Transport and Highways
India has the second-largest road network in the world. The Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH) is planning to develop around 60,000 km of roads in the next five years at a rate of about 40 km/day. And with Nitin Gadkari at the helm, there is no questioning that this will be achieved. Gadkari’s target is to achieve a pace of 100 km per day of highway construction. The Eastern and Western peripheral highways around Delhi were built in a record time of three years. After Nitin Gadkari took over the ministry, files moved at breakneck speed, and both highways are now complete.

The Labour of Historical Fiction
I don’t know if I can pinpoint when the idea to write fiction took root in my mind, but five years into working as an oral historian of the 1947 Partition, the landscape of what would become my first novel had grown too insistent to ignore.
