Hind Swaraj or Indian Home Rule

Hind Swaraj or Indian Home Rule is a book written by Mahatma Gandhi in 1909.

[3] Mahatma Gandhi wrote this book in his native language, Gujarati, while traveling from London to South Africa on board SS Kildonan Castle.

The Reader (specifically identified by the historian S. R. Mehrotra as Dr Pranjivan Mehta) essentially serves as the typical Indian countryman whom Gandhi would have been addressing with Hind Swaraj.

[5] In September 1938, the philosophical magazine The Aryan Path published a symposium on Hind Swaraj.

[6][7] The contributors were several noted writers: Frederick Soddy, Claude Houghton, G. D. H. Cole, C. Delisle Burns, John Middleton Murry, J. D. Beresford, Hugh Fausset, Gerald Heard and Irene Rathbone.
