Chanakya was an Indian teacher, philosopher and royal advisor. He managed the first Maurya emperor Chandragupta’s rise to power at a young age. He is widely credited for having played an important role in the establishment of the Maurya Empire, which was the first empire in archaeologically recorded history to rule most of the Indian subcontinent.
Chanakya is traditionally identified as Kautilya or Vishnu Gupta, who authored the ancient Indian poltical treatise called Arthasastra. As such, he is considered as the pioneer of the field of economics and political science in India, and his work is thought of as an important precursor to Classical Economics.
Chanakya Neeti is a treatise on the ideal way of life, and shows Chanakya’s deep study of the Indian way of life. Chanakya also developed Neeti-Sutras (aphorisms—pithy sentences) that tell people how they should behave. Of these well-known 455 sutras, about 216 refer to rajaneeti (the do,s and don’ts of running a kingdom). Apparently, Chanakya used these sutras to groom Chandragupta and other selected disciples in the art of ruling a kingdom.
SOME IMPORTANT SUTRAS
In the common man’s affluence and happiness is the affluence and happiness of the king. In their welfare is the king’s welfare.
The king’s mission should be to constantly make efforts for the welfare of his subjects. It is his duty to maintain orderly administration.
Self-dependent economy is the best economy; it should not be entirely dependent on exports.
Everyone in the society should be equal with equal opportunities.
It is necessary to have an effective land management policy for the development of the resources.
The State should keep a constant watch on the agricultural development.
The law of the land should be uniform for everyone.
The security of its residents should be a priority for the government.

Motivating Thoughts of Chanakya by A.K. Gandhi
In his book; Chanakya has dealt with a wide variety of subjects under the sun; and it is worthwhile to know the expanse of his learning; knowledge; thinking and wisdom; this is like an ocean from which we can draw food for thought and advice for action in all circumstances that we may confront in our daily life. In this book; we have made a solemn endeavour to compile his views on different topics. It is a delight to read them; and follow as well. This perhaps makes him the greatest motivational guru we have ever seen. —A.K. Gandhi

CHANAKYA NEETI AND LEADERSHIP BY RENU SAINI
An educated and intelligent person makes even an impossible thing possible and transforms an unfavourable situation into favourable one. It is generally said that time changes everything but, in reference to intelligent, learned, humble and enlightened people, Chanakya believes such a person changes the time by transforming himself, demolishes old records and establishes new ones. A learned and intelligent person knows how to attain his goals by giving them positive, rapid, concrete, long-term and distinct forms.
