It was a moment of immense pride and inspiration as we witnessed the launch of the powerful and thought-provoking book, “Daughter of the Soil – President Droupadi Murmu,” authored by the dynamic duo Gaurav Gupta Ji and Rashmi Saluja Ji. This remarkable literary work is a tribute to one of the most inspirational leaders of our time—President Droupadi Murmu, India’s first tribal woman President and a beacon of courage, simplicity, and resilience.
We extend our heartiest congratulations to Gaurav Gupta Ji and Rashmi Saluja Ji for this significant and timely contribution to the literary and political discourse of our nation. The book beautifully captures the extraordinary journey of President Murmu—from humble beginnings in Odisha to the highest constitutional office in the country. It is a tale of perseverance, dignity, and a deep-rooted connection to one’s culture and people.
A Humbling Honour
It was a deeply humbling experience to receive the first copy of the book—an honour that resonates personally and emotionally. Holding this book is not just about receiving a literary work; it’s about embracing the story of a woman who broke barriers and paved the way for millions of others with quiet strength and unwavering determination.
The presence and collaboration of both authors, known for their impactful voices in the fields of social change and leadership, adds great depth and authenticity to the narrative. Their efforts in chronicling such a powerful life journey will surely inspire generations to come.
More Than a Book—A Movement
“Daughter of the Soil” is more than just a biography. It’s a movement of acknowledgement and celebration—of India’s rich tribal heritage, of women’s empowerment, and of the idea that no dream is too distant when one’s heart is rooted in service and sacrifice.
As we celebrate this beautiful launch, let us also celebrate the values of inclusion, empathy, and leadership that this book so wonderfully embodies. May this work reach every corner of the nation and ignite hope in the hearts of many.
Once again, congratulations to Gaurav Gupta Ji and Rashmi Saluja Ji on this inspiring achievement.
