Under the title “Chaos in India”, it includes the following subchapters: Legacy of the past; Bureaucratic incompetence; Transport; Coal muddle; Famine; Failure to rely on Peoples’ organisations; Industrial workers; Trade Union organization and gains; Rise in cost of living. Depreciation of wages; Attempts at disrupting trade unions, the peasantry, and people’s unity.
