CISF headquarters hosts release of book 'Hogi Jai... Hey Purushottam Naveen!' by CISF officer
New Delhi, May 25
Central Industrial Security Force Director General Praveer Ranjan on Monday released a book titled 'Hogi Jai... Hey Purushottam Naveen!' which highlights the importance of inner strength, positivity, patience, and continuous effort in overcoming the challenges, stress, and struggles of modern life.
The book was written by CISF Assistant Inspector General (Administration) Jai Prakash Azad.
Inspired by the famous Hindi poet Suryakant Tripathi 'Nirala's renowned poem 'Ram Ki Shakti Puja', the book highlights the importance of inner strength, positivity, patience, and continuous effort in overcoming the challenges, stress, and struggles of modern life.
Through the life, courage, and perseverance of Lord Ram, the book conveys that every individual carries within them the potential of a "Purushottam" -- an ideal, self capable of facing every obstacle.
Author Jai Prakash Azad clarified that the book is not a retelling of the Ramayana, but an attempt to draw inspiration from Lord Ram's values, struggles, discipline, and Karmayoga (path of action) to guide today's youth toward a more positive and meaningful life. The author has also shared personal experiences in the book, making it more relatable and impactful for readers.
Written in a simple, engaging, and motivational style, the book is expected to serve as a valuable guide for youth and force personnel alike in building self-confidence, self-awareness, and emotional resilience.
DG CISF said, "Hogi Jai... Hey Purushottam Naveen!' is an inspiring guide for today's youth and force personnel living in stressful and challenging times."
"The book encourages readers to overcome life's difficulties through inner strength, positive thinking, patience, and continuous action. Inspired by Mahakavi Nirala's 'Ram Ki Shakti Puja', this work motivates every individual to awaken the 'Purushottam' within," the DG said.

Lovely to see our forces engaging in such meaningful work beyond security. This book can truly inspire many. 🙏
I appreciate the idea, but hope it's not just another Ramayana retelling in a different cover. The author says it's not that, but let's see if it truly offers something new for the youth. Also, I wish such books were available in local languages too.
It's refreshing to see our security personnel contributing to mental well-being. The concept of 'Purushottam' is powerful. Would love to read this one!
Interesting to see a security force publishing inspirational literature. In the US, it's rare to see such initiatives from law enforcement agencies. Cheers to CISF for this step!
The use of Nirala's work as inspiration is brilliant. Our literature has so much to offer. I only hope this doesn't become a one-off effort and more such books come out from our forces. Mental resilience is so important, especially for those in uniform.
Sabdhanyavaad to Jai Prakash Azad for this effort. Hope this reaches not just CISF but all of us. The 'Karmayoga' message is what we need today.
