              Here , my view about the book revolution 2020 written by the famous author Chetan Bhagat . revolution 2020 is Chetan Bhagat’s fifth book and most criticized book. The book revolution 2020 is the story of three childhood friend like : Gopal, Raghav and Arti. The student of IIT JEE and the story setup and beginning in the holy city of Varanasi.  Three childhood friends gopal , raghav and arti has different aspiration and dreams in life with gopal wanting to become rich , raghav wanting a global political change and arti wants to become an airhostess .
               Gopal and raghav they both are schoolmate from the childhood and the same batch in school.and the arti is also from the same class. Gopal loves arti  from the school days. The whole story’s narrator is Gopal. The gopal comes a filmy Indian middle class background raghav is from an rich and almost well to do family. Where as arti comes from a kind of bureaucratic  and political family . but they all are them have their own ambition in life. After the JEE and AIEE exams later  the failure in getting through JEE and AIEE exams . gopal is forced by his father to repeat the exams next year. But raghav secures a good rank and joins the top college in Varanasi.in this book revolution 2020 , the writer has very well portrait the life of a student who went to another city for studies but failed in his education. The author has clearly the rotten Indian education system and corruption that exists till date. Gopal’s cribbing about not getting a good enough rank is the fate of Indian Education system and most of us would have crossed that pace in our life . this is where our fate of our life is chosen by the ranks we get than we choosing it. After falls in love with raghav . then, our protagonist  gopal proceeds to set up his own business Gangatech college in Varanasi with the help of an MLA Shukla using his power. What happens when gopal returns to Varanasi after his one year stint at cracking the entrance exams is the main part of the story. Apart from losing his love, he couldn’t find a seat in engineering  to fulfill his father’s  dream and on the other side, Raghav succeeds in his exams becomes a journalist and  start   his own newsletter called Revolution 2020 . in the middle part of the story how Gopal choose corruption as an did to became a successful person while raghav tries to change the world with his revolutionary ideals is what the middle pages of the book are all about. Then later, in which articles he reflected the Ganga treatment scam and prove that Shukla is a corrupt man. Also he published this articles. After his success and also another side Arti is caught between the love of both her friends , switches from one to another due to the twist that arises in the story. After so long time many twist in Raghav , Gopal and Arti life. The three friends then resolve the  ending where in arti gets married to Raghav. Whereas gopal paves way for their happy future life. Though  almost many readers disliked the ending of arti getting married to Raghav, I wish to differ from this ,Gopal getting Arti would never would have made Gopal feel bad about his corrupted life on the contrary , it would have made gopal win after all his   corrupted activities and that is not revolution 2020 story plot was for.as far the title is concerned , I have no problems with it as I enjoyed this love triangle more than i would have enjoyed this revolutionary story. As a  fact, no book can tell us how a revolution can be brought. It definitely gives an insight into our prevailing education system and the prevalent corruption associated with it and also I liked the struggle made by Gopal and any aspiring  student in our country can connected with the character as well as have been part of this insane education system with numerous loopholes. And I also liked the love Gopal had for Arti and his 100% honesty and feeling for her.
