Chitra Mudgal - Ex-President
"I have always written freely on the subjects I feel strongly about. My aim is to depict reality as it is, not to paint one for the convenience of a reader's conscience." -
Chitra Mudgal
Rare is this amalgamation of gentle sensitivity, utter humility and such superior intellect. Probably her solace with her wonderful self is the reason behind the glowing radiance on the face of this 60-year old, which can put a thousand electric bulbs to shame. Meet the multi-faceted Chitra Mudgal, a renowned and respected figure in modern literature in Hindi, who is also a dedicated trade unionist, social activist, virtual mother to slum dwelling women and, at the same time, a doting housewife and mother. Probably it will be better to say that her wide spectrum of social work and her unflinching belief in "humanism" defines the world-class writer in her.
