This is a collection of essays, structured around contemporary Indian and global issues. Divided into three distinct sections, the book aims to provide the reader with a wholesome exposure to our economic, political and social systems. The first section delves into the largely unfortunate state of the global economy. There always exists hope, however being unaware of the predicaments that plague us on an international level is a blunder one cannot afford to commit. As India still struggles to recover from domestic shocks, worsening global markets undermine its ability to reach for the stars. The second section, discusses the varied difficulties that haunt our nation and explores ways to navigate through the inevitable storm. The last section is a collection of works on abstract discourses.
