What after Modi Sarkar?

by Taachal

A great revolution is coming… a revolution that would be more powerful than the one that was in the imaginations of MK Gandhi and Jayaprakash Narayan. Unavoidable is the revolt of the new generation against the caste system that teaches isolation, and the belief system that preaches confinement, in the new world of connectivity and cooperation defined by powerful technological tools, which we welcomed knowingly or unknowingly.The book “WHAT AFTER MODI SARKAR?” is nothing less than a prophesy and it anticipates a great social revolution in India in the near future. In this book, the author conducts a deep inquiry into the intricacies of contemporary Indian political process. He knows very well, “The task ahead is tough. But never to forget the proverb: when the going gets tough, the...

Scary Portents : In...

by Sudip Talukdar

In his crisp, characteristic style, the author launches a broadside against identity politics, which seek to erode the idea of Bharat and suppress the voice of its majority. He also rips apart the facade of half-truths and dissembling, legitimized as ‘political correctness,’ in staunch defence of the Indian Army and national sentiments. At the same time, the book looks at what India can accomplish, when left to its genius and cultural heritage, despite a thousand daunting odds.“Scary Portents should be of great value to the professional security analyst and the lay public alike. It represents the author’s years of fruitful work as a fearless journalist and commentator, who highlights the bitter truth,” writes Maj Gen GD Bakshi.

Indians In Mirror : View of a...

by Laljee Verma

Indian governance has lacked in public oriented administration. Politicians, and the administrators seem to have been working in self-interest rather for public. National interest appears the last priority. Bureaucratic attitude has resulted in deficient result oriented development in almost all fields, such as polity, scientific development, and healthcare delivery. Adoption of Westminster democracy has resulted in undue concentration powers in the hands of elected representatives with lack of ‘checks and balance’. Indic religions and culture may have a lot to give to the world. A chapter is devoted to discussion on religion, and what India could contribute to the world. The world recognises India as the spiritual hub, and looks forward to its contribution. The book is a cross section...

Pakistan-What Every...

by Ravi M

Pakistan is india’s neighbor – but nowhere near being a good neighbor. Unfortunately, it was born out of a persecution complex and fear. Even 70 years after its formation, the complex remains.While the book explains the Pakistani frame of mind, in various chapters, the underlying mindset is that of hatred towards India in general, and anti-Hindu in particular, whom it has always considered as Enemy. With such frame of mind it has ventured into four wars with India….This book is a summary of the history, the state of mind and the resultant self defeating actions of Pakistan’s rulers and the military. With uncontrollable debts, abject poverty, and insane anti-India attitude, Pakistan is literally sitting on an Atom Bomb, which it flashes with a flourish every day.The purpose of this ...

Intolerance in the ...

by Dr. Sharad Jain

For the educated intellectual class, the year 2015 suddenly became a year of rising change in the climate of intolerance, in an otherwise tolerant country.Creation of intolerance in tolerant India seems to be a secret, deep-rooted plan by a handful of conspirators to provoke eminent writers and other artists to return awards.

The reason cited – The lynching of a Muslim at his residence, supposedly, by an irate mob, based on the rumour of beef eating at a village near Dadri, UP.
