| In terms of size, it is the smallest of all Public Administration books but otherwise considered to be the toughest and most important book for public administration. Mohit for Public Administration, is what D.D.Basu is for Indian Constitution. What will be your expression if you started reading Gita without knowing the back-story of Mahabharat?
Same is the case with Bhattacharya’s book. To appreciate the finesse and depth of his ideas, one must be totally aware (and well versed) in the routine topics of Public Administration syllabus.That’s why always start with M.Laxmikanth’s book on Public Administration, then read IGNOU BA booklet, then MA booklets and finally in the end read the sacred book of Mohit Bhattacharya.
Same way to understand D.D. Basu, one should first go through M.Laxmikanth’s book on Polity. Mohit’s book must be read multiple times after an interval of few weeks, Because everytime you read it, same lines will give you a totally new viewpoint and gemstone. In the Pre-CSAT era, it was GS+ Optional Subject paper (120 questions worth 300 marks). And out of those 120 questions, 8-12 used to come out from Mohit’s book. In older mains, UPSC would lift statements directly from his book and ask you to comment on it. It was a sacred book then, it is a sacred book now. Any JBPS/No0b/Lord Curzon picks up Public Administration as an optional subject after hearing that it is a ‘scoring subject’. When such juntaa reads Mohit, they find it difficult,
^A grave Mistake that will lead you to your grave. Mohit Must not be ignored.
