 Prof. Geraldine Forbes, a distinguished teaching professor at SUNY, USA had written an introduction to Capt. Lakshmi's autobiography "A Revolutionary Life - Memoirs of a political activist". Forbes' essay serves as a great introduction and provides a lot of perspective on the challenges, obstacles faced and achievements of the freedom fighter, communist and revolutionary, Capt. Lakshmi. Pragoti has arranged for a scanned copy of the introduction from the autobiography and is publishing it for non-commercial, informational purposes following the death of the distinguished freedom fighter a couple of days ago.
