In Cassette Culture, Peter Manuel tells how a new mass medium—the portable cassette player—caused a major upheaval in popular culture in the world's second-largest country. The advent of cassette technology in the 1980s transformed India's popular music industry from the virtual monopoly of a single multinational LP manufacturer to a free-for-all among hundreds of local cassette producers. The result was a revolution in the quantity, quality, and variety of Indian popular music and its patterns of dissemination and consumption. Manuel shows that the cassette revolution, however, has brought new contradictions and problems to Indian culture. While inexpensive cassettes revitalized local s...
A riveting account of how a popularly elected leader has steered the world's largest democracy toward authoritarianism and intolerance Over the past two decades, thanks to Narendra Modi, Hindu nationalism has been coupled with a form of national-populism that has ensured its success at the polls, first in Gujarat and then in India at large. Modi managed to seduce a substantial number of citizens by promising them development and polarizing the electorate along ethno-religious lines.

The Central Armed Police Forces (CAPFs) — including CRPF, BSF, CISF, ITBP, and SSB — along with Assam Rifles (AR), are critical in maintaining India's internal security, law, order, and border defense. Their status as paramilitary forces, however, raises key legal questions about their authority, responsibilities, and structure. This book offers a comprehensive analysis of the laws and regulations governing the CAPFs and AR, covering constitutional provisions, statutory laws, service rules, disciplinary processes, and force courts. It also provides insights into judicial decisions that shape the legal framework for these forces. This book addresses the complex legal issues affecting the CAPFs and AR by examining case law, legislation, and policy documents. It is a valuable resource for legal professionals, CAPF & AR personnel, researchers, students, policymakers, and government officials.

The distinguishing characters among genera and species are there but due to plasticity of the characters the identification is very difficult. For overcoming this difficulty, a critical taxonomic study is necessary. Taxonomic revision of Indian Gentianaceae has not been done since C.B. Clarke’s work in Flora of British India, which is now more than a century old. This is the first book of its kind, presenting correct names, synonyms and world distribution of 196 species and varieties, grouped into 17 genera of this family found in India. Out of these taxa the d...
