Chandraprabha: The iron lady of AssamPaperback, 25 May 2021

'Chandraprabha: The Iron Lady of Assam' is an analytical biography of Padmashri

Chandraprabha Saikiani (1901-1972), who was a leading freedom fighter, social reformer,

educationist and a pioneer of women empowerment of Assam.

The book has been written contextually instead of chronologically and therefore some

repetition will be observed by the readers in the book. As there are many books on the Iron

Lady of Assam in the public domain, the book has not been written as a typical biography on

her. This book will showcase her capability and accomplishments as a freedom fighter, as a

writer, as a poet and as a social worker despite her personal struggles throughout her life

against many social norms.
