Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In northern India, the diverse physiography of the state of Jammu and Kashmir, situated in the western Himalayas, exhibits the shape of a terrace having three steps of increasing elevation from south to north. The lower step comprises Ã?Â?sub-Himalayan Jammu, the middle is Himalayan Kashmir, and the upper as trans-Himalayan Ladakh. This varied surface configuration makes these regions quite distinct where Jammu is mostly hilly; Kashmir, a sizeable plain surrounded by mountains; and Ladakh, an area of towering landforms. By virtue of its latitudinal location, the state lies within the sub tropics, but such conditions here are altered by a varying altitude, restricting the sub tropical climate to southern parts of Jammu region. The northern parts of the Jammu and Kashmir valley experience temperate climate, while Ladakh is a cold highland desert. Consequently, each region is in possession of different environmental assets and constraints. This book provides a concise and coherent account of the geography of Jammu and Kashmir. It deals briefly with the political history of Jammu and Kashmir, and then traces the geological evolution of the state. The book includes chapters on the physical features of each region. It offers a clear understanding of the basics of the physical environment, presenting the weather and climate at the regional and the sub-regional level.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is written to highlight an completely different aspect of the actual problem of Jammu and Kashmir state and how it manifested to the current situation. The ‘Great Game’ of the British Empire of having a buffer state between India and the expanding Soviets is known to all. However, the shrewd policies of achieving the dominance of a particular ethnicity over the complete state of Jammu and Kashmir state has been cleverly hidden from the people of Jammu and Kashmir. The Tribal invasion of 1947, the conditions for accession to India and the demarcation of Cease Fire Line achieved a particular set of Geographical and Ethnic divide that completely changed the politics and demographic pattern of Jammu and Kashmir. This book further makes an endeavor to understand the actual impact of demarcation of Cease Fire line and where the state of Jammu and Kashmir was cleverly steered over the last 75 years. Also, this book aims to bring out the true leaders of Jammu and Kashmir, who mattered the most in 1947 including Sheikh Mohammad Abdullah, Choudhary Ghulam Abbas and Mirwaiz Yusuf Shah, Pandit Prem nath Dogra, Mahashey Ram Chand and Ahmed Yar Khan ‘Duggar’.
