Rajmohan Gandhi - A Lifestory

Here's a start for a story about someone: This person, a well known writer and a person in politics, has spent their life looking into the hard parts of history and the small details of what people do. They were born in 1935. Because they are the grandchild of Mahatma Gandhi and C. Rajagopalachari, they learned early to feel a big sense of duty and a wish to help the public. They have used this family history in their work, making smart looks at things and writing stories about people's lives. They worked for a long time as the boss of the weekly paper, Himmat. There, they talked without fear about important problems in society and politics. This job helped them move into politics. They were chosen to be in the Rajya Sabha in 1990. They have always spoken in a way that makes sense and is honest in Indian politics. Besides working in politics and writing for papers, they are known for their books about people. Their most famous book, Mohandas: A True Story of a Man, His People and an Empire, came out in 2006. It gives a strong picture of their grandfather. Other writers have said they do careful research and can make people from the past seem real. One person said, "Their writing shows how well they know the subject." They have also written good books about Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel and Rajaji. By writing, this person keeps shaping the story of India's past and present.
