Mangesh Dahiwale’s book review
‘What gives the book its peculiar force is precisely this refusal to begin with abstraction. The opening movement, framed as a prologue tracing the Buddha-mārga in Bangladesh, situates the reader not in a conceptual argument but in a landscape.’

Halder praised PM Modi for promoting exposition of Buddha’s relics.
