About the Book

Rajendra Shekhar, former CBI director and former DG police Rajasthan, has stringed together episodes that are astoundingly gripping. He has studied in two of the most prestigious educational power houses of the country, Mayo (schooling) and St. Stephen's (college education). He has authored two books in English and one in Hindi; all of them having won acclaim.

His rich professional experience (in state police and the CBI) is evidenced in his experiences during the 1965 Indo-Pak War and in his supervision of cases of special crime, anti-corruption and murder in the CBI. His skilled narration in Facebook posts and penned articles has drawn exceptional endorsements.

The book is peppered with endearing characters that flit through the pages perpetrating well-meaning indiscretions from Mansukha to Masoom and of course Amma (author's mother) who is naive enough to think that Eton is just a pile of bricks.

Shekhar's forte is character delineation. As such, the unique aspect of this book is that it is replete with delightful characters having a bearing on human interest. This touching tale of times gone by will strike a heart-warming chord with its readers, as they go along to discover the humane facet of a 'uniformed service', otherwise known for its severe approach.
About the Author: Rajendra Shekhar completed his post-graduation in Economics at St. Stephen's College, Delhi.

He was selected for the Indian Police Service (Rajasthan cadre) in 1957. As an officer, he had the rare opportunity to learn and serve in a cadre which was among the most sought after by IPS probationers.

He learnt quality 'field work' as an SP of various districts and administrative work in higher postings at the Police Head Quarters.

In 1972, he came on deputation to the Central Bureau of Investigation as an SP (Jaipur Branch), and in 1975, he went to Delhi as a Deputy Inspector General (DIG) CBI. He worked in the CBI for about 14 years in different capacities and had the rare opportunity to supervise important cases of crime and corruption.

He had the good fortune to head both the institutions as Director CBI and Director General Police (DGP) Rajasthan State, respectively.

He has also published Not a Licence to Kill (Konark Publishers, Delhi), Defining Moments (Rupa & Co.Delhi) and Pal-Kal Aaj Aur Kal (Prabhat Prakashan, Delhi).
