Description

Kranti Kyon aur Kaise

Ramswaroop Verma’s kranti Kyon aur Kaise (why and how revolution) is a powerful, no nonsense that exposes structural roots of social injustice in Indian society and argues for a planned, logic-based revolution to establish real equality. Written in bold, straight language, the book is not only theoretical-it is action-oriented and is unrelated to casteism, Brahminism and religious conservative criticism.

🧨 Why revolution? (Kranti kon)

Verma argues that India does not require improvement – it needs revolution. Social evils such as caste hierarchy, Brahmin domination and religious exploitation are not accidental – they deliberately create systems of control. According to Verma, no real freedom is possible until these structures are eliminated. He criticizes tokens reforms because cosmetic changes meant to preserve power structures, not to eliminate them.

He asks:

Why are Dalits still subdued in a so -called democratic country?

Why do ancient scriptures justify inequality and call it “divine order”?

Why does nationalism ignore the caste question?

These “whys” are not rhetorical. They are weapons to intellectually challenge a deep-rooted system of oppression.

⚙️ How Revolution? (Kranti Kaise)

The second half of the book lays out Verma’s blueprint for “how” to make revolution meaningful:

1. Manavvaad (Humanism) as Ideological Foundation

Ditching both religious dogma and blind nationalism, Verma proposes humanism as the only ethical base for revolution. Revolution must prioritize human dignity over divine authority, reason over ritual, and equality over tradition.

2. Rejecting Fatalism

He aggressively attacks the karmic theory, which justifies suffering as a result of “past deeds.” According to Verma, such ideas are tools to pacify oppressed communities and block revolutionary consciousness.

3. Scientific Temper

Inspired by Ambedkar and Periyar, Verma advocates for a rational, evidence-based worldview. Any belief—be it religious or cultural—that opposes logic and equality should be discarded as anti-revolutionary.

4. Organised Struggle

He emphasizes systematic mobilization rather than spontaneous outbursts. Revolution must be organized around ideas, institutions, and actions rooted in conscious ideological clarity, not emotionalism or violence.

📌 Final Note
Kranti Kyon aur Kaise is not a mild appeal—it’s a firebrand declaration. Verma forces the reader to confront inconvenient truths about Indian society and arms them with intellectual tools to fight. If you’re seeking real, structural change—not just symbolic slogans—this book is your ideological ammunition.
