Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I was born into a farming family. As a Delta Farmer, I have been in the agricultural business for the past fifty years. The farming activity in delta districts is solely dependent on River Cauvery. Since the year 1974, Cauvery delta farmers have been deprived of their right to use Cauvery water. This made them poor, debt struck and has led to suicides. Farming has become unsustainable. The root cause of all these sufferings is the insufficient flow of Cauvery water. The aim of this book is to let our North Indian leaders, BJP and Congress, know that River Cauvery is sacred and revered and that it makes the delta soil fertile and rich. Without Cauvery water, the delta lands now look barren and dead. All the fine arts grew and developed only because of Cauvery. Architecture was in full bloom on the banks of Cauvery because of Tamil kings. Cauvery irrigation is systemic and technically viable. Solutions to augment the flow of Cauvery water from the west-flowing rivers have been proposed to resolve the issue permanently.

Download or read book Ponniyin Selvan The New Tide Part 1 written by Varalotti Rengasamy and published by Pustaka Digital Media. This book was released on 2021-02-22 with total page 627 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When I started translating Kalki’s Ponniyin Selvan in 2010, blissfully unaware of the depth and the magnitude of the work, several people tried to dissuade me. One potential publisher even lured me with an offer to translate another work of Kalki. Reason: there were already many translations around. Yes, there were. But most of them, though done with utmost sincerity, failed to create the emotional bond with the readers which the original author had effortlessly done in the Fifties when Ponniyin Selvan was serialised in a popular magazine. I did not rush up. I did not have a target or deadline. I let the translation work progress in its own pace. That explains the six long years I spent for this project. I read and re-read the first draft a dozen times before handing it over to my editors. There were many points of contention. There were issues where we could not reach a consensus easily. Finally the hard copy was ready for publication in 2016. The publisher had jitters and so did I. We got ready rough copies of two volumes. I gave it to two of my friends, who had read the original more than sixty times, with a mandate to read them in one go. They did and said “This is the best you can do in English.” The work culminated not when the book was released by a former Central Minister in 2016, not even when it went for three editions but when an ardent fan of Kalki sent a mail to me in 2019. “It was as if Kalki himself rendered his great work in English.”

Download or read book Theorizing the Local written by Richard Wolf and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2009-09-03 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past four decades, the "globalized" aspects of cultural circulation have received the majority of scholarly-and consumer-attention, particularly in the study of South Asian music. As a result, a broad range of community-based and other locally focused performance traditions in the regions of South Asia have remained relatively unexplored. Theorizing the Local provides a challenging and compelling counterperspective to the "globalized," arguing for the value of comparative microstudies that are not concerned primarily with the flow of capital and neoliberal politics. What does it mean for musical activities to be local in an increasingly interconnected world? To what extent can theoretical activity be localized to the very acts of making music, interacting, and composing? Theorizing the Local offers glimpses into rich musical worlds of south and west Asia, worlds which have never before been presented in a single volume. The authors cross the traditional borders of scholarship and region, exploring in unmatched detail a vast array of musical practices and significant ethnographic discoveries-from Nepal to India, India to Sri Lanka, Pakistan to Iran. Enriched by audio and video tracks on an extensive companion Web site, Theorizing the Local is an important study of South Asian musical traditions that offers a broader understanding of 21st-century music of the world.

Download or read book Shru berry Tales written by Cauvery Kesavasamy and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2019-11-13 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2 Years 8 Months Me: Look here, Chinnu! If you don’t do this... Shru: (In a bored voice) I know, I know. No TV, no playdough, no surprise color,nothing! Me: (Baffled because she stole my line) Yeah, you know it already. Shru: I can’t wait to be a grown up, Amma! Khyrunnisa A (Award-winning author of the Butterfinger series) The fascinating workings of a child’s mind and a fond mother’s gift for words come together in a most appealing manner in Shru-berry Tales. In these entertaining snippets, Cauvery has not just recorded her little daughter’s innocent quips, observations, worldly wisdom, unexpected and amusing reactions, concern for others and the very occasional urge to do mischief, but has conveyed them so endearingly that it is a treat to eavesdrop on these conversations. Enjoyed reading this book! Damodar Padhi (Vice President & Global Head, Talent Development, TCS Ltd.) Parenting is one responsibility that cannot be delegated. Responsible parenting is all about spending time with a toddler, answering many questions without tempering endless curiosity, sprinkling love selflessly without expecting anything in return. Many realise it, but not all of them practice it. Those who do, will find themselves in Cauvery’s conversations with Shruti. And those who don’t, will learn and derive inspiration for sure.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Living through dramatic times as one of the first woman political journalists in the broadcast media in the undivided state of Andhra Pradesh when private television channels breezed through the regional landscape in the mid-nineties, Aruna Ravikumar witnessed momentous developments and historical events frozen in time. ‘There I Was’! Media Musings'’ is a compelling read about her foray into journalism which unwittingly began with her listening to interesting news discussions by fellow morning walkers when she accompanied her grandfather to Hyderabad’s famous tank bund, culminating in her moderating political debates in television studios. Political intrigues, destruction of cities, caste conflicts, faction politics, and naxalite violence are part of the mosaic of experiences chronicled here with historical perspective and personal observation. Sketches of select celebrities from hundreds of interviews over decades will inspire awe and admiration in a world woefully lacking role-models. The book essays learnings from the media taking in its sweep, crowning successes and glaring failures and a wide gamut of issues in between.
