Caged Tiger by Subhashish Bhadra is a great read with a lot of insights into basic things, such as how the constitution gives excessive power to the government over the citizens and how the country and its people are affected. The change of basic things is necessary as it affects the economy, culture, and life. I loved the sentence “Leaders come and go, institutions stay forever”.

As India is a subcontinent with a varied set of people, landscape, culture and language and thinking of unity of the people as one nation some colonial rules are still part of the constitution which gives more power to the government which affects the development of the country.

The author explains the need for change as our country has a large young population and the need of using it effectively in reaching glory. He compares nations that provide freedom for their citizens and how the economic restriction is less and how it paved the way for being a consistent performer and a developed nation and explains with events, articles of the constitution and the amendments made.

This book makes you think and strive for change, being a nonfiction book, it was interesting and informative and made me think from another perspective. The book was written in simple language and kudos to the author for bringing his view, perspective with well researched events and examples to explain the need of the change in the foundation.
