This humorous book describes several farcical adventures of a self-styled 'Gandhian' NGO leader.
Several people love this book and I hope you will too. Here are some top endorsements:

Dr. Y.V.Reddy, writer, economist, and
former Governor of the Reserve Bank of India:
This book is a thoroughly enjoyable and
entertaining read. It is full of refreshing humour but with deep and subtle
messages on the interface between Government and Civil Society. I am
delighted to recommend to one and all to buy, or at least to borrow, and read
this book.
Dr. Suman Sahai, Convenor, Gene Campaign, New Delhi:
I scream with laughter every time I take up the book ! It is
written so beautifully...a great pleasure to read. I can almost identify
Sharmaji …but there must be lots like him.
Prof. Shyamala A. Narayan, Jamia Millia
University, New Delhi, and Reviewer, Journal of
Commonwealth Literature:
Vithal Rajan’s forte is creating characters
like Vedavyas Sharma. His novel, Sharmaji, Padmashree is structured as a
collection of short stories centred on ‘Shre Vedavyas Sharma, M.A.(London)’,
the director of an NGO he founded. The book has enjoyable satire directed
against self-serving social workers and corrupt politicians and bureaucrats.
Ms
Sherise Hobbs, Fiction Editor, Headline,
UK:
I
thought it was charming - intelligent, witty and wry.
Ms Gita Ram, President, Industree Crafts
Foundation:
I thoroughly enjoyed reading Sharmaji
Padmashree! The portrayal of the protagonist is brilliant!
