The developed countries have equal participation of women in all walks of life. The non participation of women in India is based on the social conditions of the country. It is a fact that women can contribute more and they are willing to adopt any type of activity more sincerely and with more interest than the men but the opportunities are denied to them because of the psychological cultural social educational and training hurdles. Even in case of manual jobs they are not reluctant but social obstacles comes in their way. The under employment of women is a cause for low income and low productivity.

Soft cover. Condizione: New. Founded in 1870, the United Service Institution of India (USI) is an extraordinary security and defence services think tank. Its journal, published quarterly since 1872, is the oldest defence journal in Asia and one of the most prestigious in the world. This anthology comprises articles from the USI Journal that span almost 150 years and shed light on a variety of topics pertaining to the development of military science and strategic thought in South Asia. With writings on subjects ranging from campaign studies, to reminiscences of soldiers in battle, to larger questions of defence policy, Military Musings is a rare and valuable addition to literature on India s military thought and history. Mander brings us voices of out-of-work daily-wage and informal workers, the homeless and the destitute, all overwhelmed by hunger and dread. From the highways and overcrowded quarantine centres, he brings us stories of migrant workers who walked hundreds of kilometres to their villages or were prevented from doing so and detained. He lays bare the criminal callousness at the heart of a strategy that forced people to stay indoors in a country where tens of crores live in congested shanties or single rooms with no possibility of physical distancing, no toilets and no running water. Combining ground reports with hard data, Mander argues with great clarity and passion that India is in the middle of a humanitarian catastrophe, the effects of which will be felt for decades.…

The war clouds that had been gathering over the subcontinent for over a year burst forth in December 1971. The ensuing third Indo-Pak conflict which was fought on two fronts resulted in a resounding victory for India and the birth of a new nation: Bangladesh. This volume is a modest attempt to record the first-person accounts and reminiscences of a few veterans of the 1971 war who saw action on either of the two fronts. Personal accounts add flesh to the dry bones of history, and it is hoped that this small anthology will serve to assist future historians of South Asia in their work when they examine the momentous events of 1971 through their own lens.…

In the service of the president/Rana T.S. Chhina. 4. All the President's men/Rana T.S. Chhina. 5. All the President's Horses/Yashaswini Chandra. 6. Afterword/Anil Khosla. Appendices. Bibliography. Index. For Centuries, the head of the state, who was usually a monarch, was protected by a specially chosen band of warriors renowned for their skill at arms and prowess in battle. These chosen few in time came to be known as the guards of the bodyguards and were the elite of the armies from amongst which they were selected. They protected the person of the monarch and members of the royal family, both in times of war and peace. It is on the basis of their special relationship with the monarch that they were also known as household troops and as such occupied pride of place in the order of march at the head of the army along with the sovereign. In India, the President's Bodyguard (PBG) performs the duties of the household cavalry of the Indian head of the state. Based within the precincts of the President's Estate in the heart of New Delhi, it is not merely a ceremonial unit. Its personnel, required to be at least six feet in height, are professional soldiers, who combine cavalry tradition and ceremonial elan with their duties as trained paratroopers and members of the Indian Armoured Corps. Apart from its connection with the head of the state, the PBG is also the oldest regiment in the Indian Army with a lineage dating back to 1773. As such it is the most senior unit of the Indian Army and occupies pride of place in the regimental order of precedence to stand at the right of the line on any ceremonial parade or order of March. This book traces the history and ethos of this remarkable regiment. It is part of a series of volumes documenting different aspects of the rich cultural, social and historical legacy of the Rashtrapati Bhavan as a national institution. (jacket).…
