Critical reception

Santosh Mehrotra of The Hindu wrote: "Through anecdotes, research and ground work, a BJP MP suggests ways to tackle agricultural distress and the way forward".[5]

Panchanan Chattopadhyay of Assam University wrote: "A Rural Manifesto, is really a ‘grand narrative’ of India’s rural society to be reformed or to be revolutionised. It is a worthy collection for any university or college library. This book is an essential reading for administrators and policymakers of the country to understand the Indian villages."[6]

Roshan Kishore of Hindustan Times wrote: "The book is a much needed political intervention to the collective effort which must be channelized behind this cause."[7]
