The dismal state of human rights and the surrounding political environment in India cannot be emphasised enough. The writings collected here are meant to raise the general level of awareness about the issues concerning human rights. Linked with these issues is also the painful subject of the partition of India. Many of the conflicts one sees today are a result of this shattering event in India's history. The two essays that deal with this subject are included in the volume. Human rights in India are linked to the twin menaces and communalism. Both these issues and their various aspects have been addressed in the sections on Dalits Reservation and Caste and Hindutva and Communalism. The writer's close relationship with one of the leading political thinkers of the twentieth century in India M.N. Roy forms the subject of the section M.N. Roy Gandhi and Partition. The difference in Roy and Gandhi's approach to important matters concerning India has been scrutinized in the essay Opinion of Political Scientists on M.N. Roy and Gandhi. This book is meant as much for the lay reader as for a serious researcher into human rights in India. 256 pp.…
