Book Decoding Intolerance  Riots and the Emergence of Terrorism in India

Download or read book Decoding Intolerance Riots and the Emergence of Terrorism in India written by Prateep K. Lahiri and published by Roli Books Private Limited. This book was released on 2009-10-01 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rioting in Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh, in 1961 was a watershed event for India. After the Partition, it was the first time such large-scale communal violence had taken place. The author, Prateep K. Lahiri, on his first posting, was involved in bringing the situation under control. Some time later in 1969, as district magistrate of Indore, Lahiri played a key role in dealing with the outbreak of communal violence in that city. While the violence in both instances appeared to have been spontaneously provoked by an incident - just like in Gujarat in 2002 - the reasons that later emerged for the rioting revealed the deeper malaise that continues to affect our social system. Decoding Intolerance: Riots and the Emergence of Terrorism in India is a significant book by an administrator, who has observed the minutiae of the crisis from close quarters and scrutinized the role of the police and the state administration. The author synthesizes various dimensions of the issue, including the changing perceptions of Indian Muslims in the recent past, the history of religious fundamentalism and how it manifests as communal unrest, both in India and elsewhere. The phenomenon of terrorism, which has reared its ugly head over India and the world, is also touched upon to understand the implications it has had on the shifting political scenario. Decoding Intolerance critically analyzes the recurrence of communal violence and offers a persuasive argument about the problem, with a focus on its prevention in the future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For those who undertake a serious investigation of unidentified flying objects (UFO), there can be no questioning their reality. Still, our government would have people believe UFOs are natural earthly phenomenon. Ancient alien theorist, however, claim unidentified flying objects are highly advanced alien mechanical devices. Furthermore, the theorist would have us believe aliens are associated with the genesis of mankind, and during our formative years, they guided us with both technology and the teaching of civil/moral standards. On the one hand, we have our government saying it is nothing, and on the other hand, we have ancient alien theorists saying ancient aliens were the gods we used to worship. We cannot help but wonder why the government denies alien existence and, at the same time, ancient alien theorists preach a coming alien salvation. It is only when the ancient alien theory is decoded that elements of truth are revealed.

Book Laid to Rest  The Controversy over Subhas Chandra Bose s Death

Download or read book Laid to Rest The Controversy over Subhas Chandra Bose s Death written by Ashis Ray and published by Roli Books Private Limited. This book was released on 2018-02-07 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Laid to Rest: The Controversy over Subhas Chandra Bose’s Death is the most comprehensive compilation of hard evidence ever presented on the still hotly-debated demise of one of the heroes of the Indian freedom movement. It pieces together a plethora of first-hand, eye-witness accounts of the plane crash at Taipei that resulted in Subhas Bose breathing his last in a Japanese military hospital, his cremation and the transfer of his ashes to Japan, where they remain till date. In a veritable tour de force, the book presents irrefutable, overwhelming testimonies from survivors of the crash, people who were at Bose’s bedside when he passed away, attendees at the cremation and couriers of the mortal remains to Tokyo and ultimately to its current resting place at Renkoji temple. Indian, Japanese and Taiwanese nationals unite to provide an unimpeachable and unanimous verdict. The publication decimates conspiracy theories; and questions successive Indian governments for ignoring the plaintive cry of Bose’s Austrian widow and economist daughter to apply closure to a needless and never ending controversy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book for general readers that offers clear guidance through the chemical minefields that can be present in food.
