Bal Gangadhar Tilak: Struggle for Swaraj

A Pioneer Of The Celebration Of Shivaji And Ganpati Festivals, Bal Gangadhar Tilak Emph Elastically Declared Time And Again That, Swaraj Is My Birth-Right And I Will Have It. Through His Writings In Kesari And Maharatta, He Had Much Impact Of His Sociopolitical Ideology In Maharashtra And Elsewhere. Indeed His Editorials Were Much Critical Of The Doings Of The Raj Which Remained His Target Till The Last Day Of His Life.His Ideology Of The New System Of Education, His Deportation To Mandalay Jail, Tai Maharaja Case, The Home Rule Movement With Mrs. Annie Besant, The Chirol Case And Other Events Of His Career Speak Of His Sincere Involvement For Swaraj And Social Change In Our Society. Undoubtedly He Suffered Much, But He Stuck To His Ideology Supported By The Extremists In His Political Camp. The Chapters Deal With His Philosophy Of Life, Long Legal Trials And The Concept Of Swaraj Which Was Always Dear To Heart.
