About the Author
Pravir Krishna, an IAS officer of the Madhya Pradesh cadre, has held various posts from Assistant Collector to Secretary Government of Madhya Pradesh and Government of India in which he earned the reputation of a ‘doer and change maker’. He charted a stellar career course over the past 34 years, setting new paradigms of empathetic service in all his roles. These years also helped him implement his vision for serving people in a manner he knows best—with a blend of the right thought and action. He is widely recognized as a participative and transformational leader with strong team-building skills and the unique ability to stand with the team, shoulder all pressure, give due credit and judiciously deal with average performers to turn them into high achievers. His witty writing style and strong emotional quotient place him in the genre of thoughtful writers who make facts seem more interesting than fiction.
The story of how a young IAS officer fell in love with India’s tribal heartlands, and how these experiences changed him forever.
The author offers various hands-on suggestions for transforming symbolic legislation for the tribes to a more robust approach to tribal development that is based on strengthening self-help; the use of local resources and the traditional and sound skills and knowledge-bank of the tribes; and the need to develop enterprises based on these resources.
