The Ring of Services explores the Indianisation of the British Raj which took place between World War One and Independence in 1947. The work travels inside the Indian state through the stories of young middle class Indians who came forward to staff the elite services of the Raj at a time when the Indian National Congress was withholding the co-operation which had sustained British rule for centuries. Despite the seeming conflict between the nationalists in the Congress and the Indian officers of the Raj, when Independence came both groups buried their differences and worked together to maintain the strong state in New Delhi. It was India's first Home Minister, Vallabhbhai Patel who took to the floor of the Constituent Assembly in October 1949 to defend the Indian officers of the Indian Civil Service, Indian Army and Indian Police. The services had come under attack, yet he used the opportunity to outline his vision of a 'ring of Service', one which would ensure the unity of India in the decades ahead. Paperback, Label: Viksith, Viksith, Product group: Book, Published: 2018-07-13, Studio: Viksith.
