Raja Rao has talked about the political, social, and cultural aspects of India as if it were a small world. Through his novels, he also gave people a sense of patriotism and spiritualism in politics. He did this by putting spirituality in the setting of everyday life. This piece shines a light on the ways that Raja Rao's Kanthapura is both nationalistic and spiritual. Also, this piece describes the different parts of being Indian and Gandhian. The story of how Gandhiji's fight for Indian freedom from the British reached a typical village in southern India called Kanthapura is told in the most satisfying modern Indian novel, Kanthapura. Gandhi's political ideas and lessons are hidden as normal religious ideas, which gets the villagers angry.
