What she discovered from the many highways she took to swades form the beating heart of this book.\u003cbr\u003e\nHighway to Swades is a quest to explore and rediscover the inherent civilizational powers\u003cbr\u003e\nshared by all Indians. Jani identifies twelve such superpowers and maps out how these can be\u003cbr\u003e\ncalled to action for the future of the republic and its citizens. In 'Power of Enterprise', for instance, she explores the values that connect India's street vendors and tech entrepreneurs of Bengaluru. In 'Power of Nature', she shares the unlikely bonds that bind the Changpa people of the cold desert wildlife sanctuary in Ladakh, the Khasis of Meghalaya and an Oxford-returned young woman in Kumaon. And, in 'Power of Creativity' she throws light on how our inherent superpower of creativity can help us build a thriving creative economy using new-age tech and AI.\u003cbr\u003e\nThrough an amalgamation of data, travel anecdotes and stories of people from different corners of India, Jani intertwines the country's past, present and future seamlessly.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxfordbookstore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45082269745331,"sku":"9789356998292","price":400.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/4164\/4723\/files\/71gfzvEkEHL.jpg?v=1762896237","url":"https:\/\/oxfordbookstore.com\/products\/highway-to-swades","provider":"Oxfordbookstore ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
