In his *Svaraj in Ideas*,¹ K.C. Bhattacharyya called for developing indigenous systems of thinking and warned against blind adherence to Western thoughts and systems. It is to be noted that in recent decades discussions have been revolved again and again around this lecture by Bhattacharyya and philosophers like Kalidasa Bhattacharyya, Dayakrishna, Rajendra Prasad, Ramchandra Gandhi and S.P. Gautam commented on it. The Hindi translation of this lecture was published in *Pratiman* — a journal of the Centre for Study of Developing Societies (New Delhi) with critical comments. A seminar on it was conducted at the IIAS in 2014.
