The Collected Works of Mahatma Gandhi

A most authentic documentation project of Mahatma Gandhi’s writings and speeches was carried out meticulously and conscientiously under The Collected Works of Mahatma Gandhi (CWMG) project of the Government of India, which commenced in September 1956 and was concluded on 2 October 1994, with the publication of the 100th volume.

 

The complete collection comprises 100 volumes, more than 50,000 pages of text. Numbers 91–97 were published as Supplementary Volumes while Volumes 98–100 were indexes. A first edition was published between 1958 and 1994 by Publications Division, Ministry of Information & Broadcasting, Government of India.

 

Below files are digital versions of the original CWMG print version and are to be credited as "The Collected Works of Mahatma Gandhi (digital), New Delhi, Publications Division Government of India, 2005, 100 vols" .

 

Another edition was published from 1998 by the BJP government. This second edition sparked a deep controversy, and was withdrawn by the government. This revised - erroneous - version of the CWMG was published on the CD-Rom "Mahatma Gandhi - Interactive Multimedia - Electronic Book" in 1999. Page and volume nos. are not identical with the original print version.

The content of that CWMG version is to be credited as "The Collected Works of Mahatma Gandhi (Electronic Book), New Delhi, Publications Division Government of India, 1999, 98 vols". The erroneous version can be viewed here.
