Chaiwala to Gaiwala and Others in Between
Modi, Yogi and the Making of India's Saffron Era

From the tea stalls of Vadnagar to the power corridors of New Delhi… from the temple steps of Gorakhpur to the bulldozers that shook Uttar Pradesh… this is the untold, unvarnished story of India's most transformative - and polarizing - political decade.

This takes you inside the rise of Narendra Modi, the chaiwala who became Prime Minister and Yogi Adityanath, the gaiwala monk who became Chief Minister, in a sweeping narrative that blends eyewitness reporting, insider accounts and sharp political analysis.

This is not just the story of two men. It's the story of:

The saffron surge - how the BJP and the RSS rewrote India's political playbook. The strategist's game - Amit Shah's ground-level machine that changed electioneering forever. The others in between - allies, rivals and foot soldiers who shaped the movement from behind the scenes. The paradox of power - development and discipline on one hand, polarization and dissent on the other.

Whether you see them as visionaries or strongmen, Chaiwala to Gaiwala will challenge what you think you know about India's leaders and the forces that propel them. It is a front-row seat to rallies, war rooms and turning points that will define India's future.

If you want to understand India's present - and where it's headed - this is the book you can't afford to miss.
