Kashmir: Its Aborigines and Their Exodus
Exodus of Kashmiri Pandits from Kashmir in 1989 was their seventh such exodus since the arrival of Islam in Kashmir in the fourteenth century. This was precipitated by the outbreak of Pakistan-sponsored insurgency across Kashmir Valley in 1989. The radical Islamists targeted Pandits - a minuscule community in Muslim dominated society creating enormous fear, panic and grave sense of insecurity. In the face of ruthless atrocities inflicted on them, the Pandits’ sole concern was ensuring their own physical safety and their resolve not to convert to Islam. Over 350,000 Kashmiri Pandits were forced to flee en masse leaving their home and hearth. This was the single largest forced displacement o...
BOB KHATHING: Prevented China From Grabbing Tawang
This book tells the story of Maj Ralengnao (Bob) Khathing who, despite being born in a remote and under-developed part of the country, nearly a century ago, accomplished a great deal in his eventful life. He was a rare combination of a soldier, bureaucrat, politician, diplomat, and a minister, all rolled in to one. A highly regarded officer of the British Indian Army, decorated with MC, MBE and later with Padma Shri in independent India, Maj Bob Khathing carried out most difficult assignments of great significations with exceptional skill, energetic resolve, and tact. His timely expedition to Tawang in 1951 prevented China from grabbing NEFA (Arunachal Pradesh) after the latter had over-run Tibet and suppressed the uprising there with iron hand.

The Becoming of a Hero
Identity conflicts, a prominent feature of our times, a phenomenon of belonging somewhere yet belonging nowhere, are increasingly finding their way into cinema. This book looks at the representations of identity conflicts in India on the canvas of Indian cinema, connecting them with broader socio-political developments in contemporary India. Starting with the historical background of how political developments in Europe like the emergence of Nation states, secularism, modernity influenced socio-political developments in India in the past century, the book looks at how those developments have shaped modern India. While looking at the cinematic representations of a variety of identity conflicts through the lens of cultural and political analysis, it provides insights into how the construct of an Identity and the inherent conflicts associated with it evolve and manifest themselves through the medium of a film.
Know the Anti-Nationals
We live in an era of nation-states. Nationhood is predicated on shared sense of past and a common purpose of future. More than nation-state, India is a civilization, a complete civilization. To keep this civilization fresh and vibrant, winds from all directions are imperative for its nourishment. But, winds cannot be allowed to build into destructive storms, that threaten to uproot the civilization, the very basis of nationhood. Jihadism and Maoism are the two main destructive storms. Fueling these storms are India’s enemies as well as the forces of proselytization. They have to be crushed both at ideological and physical levels. We have been squeamish in dealing with the problems because ...
