Knowing Droupadi Murmu through this book is not only to know about an enduring personality with formidable resilience but is an introduction to a cultural heritage of scenic, lesser-known geography of incredible Bharat. It touches the unsung inspired heroes of Rairangpur, Mayurbhanj who have silently contributed to nation building. The question, why Droupadi was poor even after being a descendant of the most philanthropic Sardar (Tudu) family of Uparbeda Peedha (Pargana comprising 52 mouzas approximately) of the Bamanghaty subdivision with her father being the Halam Baba (the head man of the village), probes on the social fabric of the time and gives us an afterthought of the economic upliftment of landed cultivators of the remotest part of the country. True to her name, she is a reflection of women empowerment in a progressive and inclusive democracy which facilitated her education, job and political opportunities that she received in life. Her elevation to become the President of the largest democracy of the world reinforces our belief in the law of Karma and reemphasizes on Bharat s commitment to practice the value of Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam (one world family) and invites the world to follow the age-old principle for peaceful coexistence. This book is not just a biographical sketch of the 15th President of India depicting her tumultuous journey of life from zenith to nadir with a message to humanity to look within. Sukhasya dukhasya na kopi data, paro dad?t?ti kubuddhiresha. Aham karom?ti vrith?bhimanah, swakarmas?tre grathito hi lokah (No one except you yourself can give happiness and sorrows. Since human being is free to act, the responsibility for his actions lies solely with him). It inspires the global citizen to create their destiny through individual dedication.
