He presents these as facts for consideration as Indians were soon to be allowed immigration to Western countries. "Some of these may appear unpleasant, but the writer has only one purpose in view, namely to show briefly how the Church and its servants, the missionaries, strive to meet the many needs and challenges of India with understanding, sympathy and a spirit of service, and to help India to the best of their ability in her rebirth toward a New Day and in her march alongside the more progressive naitions of the West, - for Bharatmata also has much to contribute to her Western neighbours." - Introduction.Martin P.
