The republication of the book, Rohtas Garh, by Wopendranath Ghosh, a member of the Bengal Provincial Civil Service in the early decades of the twentieth century, is an important step in this direction. The book was first published in 1908 and derives from the author’s sincere and keen interest in the history of the notable places with which he came into contact during the course of his service. This deeply researched book is about Rohtas Garh Fort, an important historical and cultural site in Bihar, located in the present-day Rohtas district. It has a history connected with the ancient, medieval and modern history of Bihar. The place in ancient India is associated with the exploits of Satyavadi Raja Harishchandra, who is famous for his love of truth and charity. A must-read classic book for people who have an interest in history.

Maoism in India is an attempt to study and analyse the movement. Already, a number of left intellectuals and scholars have studied the movement and written about it. My attempt has been to find out the difference between the Naxalite and CPI (Maoist) movements. Is there any difference as such? Though the Naxalite movement was born in Naxalbari in 1967, it is still striving to build a sustainable support base. The Naxalite movement got its name from Naxalbari village, where the first major uprising took place. Also, through the merger of the People’s War and the Maoist Communist Centre (MCC), the Communist Party of India (Maoist) was formed in 2004, which aims to overthrow the government of India through people’s war. Why an organization which was perceived as the forum of the “deprived and alienated sections of the population” described as “the single biggest internal security challenge”. Usually, people confuse Maoists and Naxalites and cannot clearly distinguish between the two terms. The media simply adds to the confusion. The Communist Party of India (Maoist) aims to overthrow the government of India through people’s war. I also tried to find out the reasons that led the Maoists, in recent times, to focus more on arms intervention than on organising a mass resistance movement.

The Dharmic traditions – Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, and Sikhism – share much in common, not with standing a number of variations among them. In all these traditions, the scriptures, writings, and practices hold compassion as an integral part and a supreme virtue. This collection of essays by leading scholars from different disciplines aptly captures the religious and spiritual dimensions of these traditions as they relate to compassion. Most of the authors are practitioner-scholars and experts in their respective disciplines, including the sciences, humanities, social sciences, law, and religion. The experts met in September 2014 at Naropa University in Boulder, Colorado, for two days of lively deliberations under the auspices of the Uberoi Foundation for Religious Studies, which was established to spread awareness and promote understanding of the Dharmic traditions throughout North America. After addressing the ‘central and fundamental’ knowledge of these traditions and the common features and interactions among them, the essays here discuss compassion from various perspectives, such as relationship with the natural world and the environment, selfless service, and the treatment of animals. A final set of essays sheds light on the significance of compassion in each of these Dharmic traditions. As a comparative study, this unique collection presents a clear picture of the central theme of moral and compassionate conduct in the Dharmic traditions.

Nine years have passed since the ethnic conflict ended in Sri Lanka. The hope that Sri Lankan refugees would return to the island has been belied. This book highlights the dilemma faced by Sri Lankan Tamil refugees amid the twists and turns in Indo-Sri Lankan relations.

Day one. This has its own history. Are these questions raised due to ignorance of the constitution? If so, then this book opens the windows and doors to a constitution that has been satirically described as a ‘paradise for lawyers’. It creates the possibility for vital air. From the experience of the editors, it can be said that even prominent lawyers are unaware of the constitution because it is extremely complex. How can it become comprehensible? Anyone wishing to address this question will find more than enough material in this book. The complexity of the constitution is another reason why it could not become a beloved text for the ordinary citizen. Just as a citizen believes in their religious book, the constitution should serve as the religious text for the system of governance. Until this occurs, deliberations should continue. Any discussion is only relevant and successful when it addresses the core question: how can the fundamental issue regarding the constitution of India be recognized in discussions? The answer to this is extremely simple. India has its own character, its own culture, and it also has its own distortions. We can only understand our distortions and character under the torchlight of our culture. It is under this light that we must create our present times. Our current constitution defines the religion of our state. How Indian or un-Indian is this constitution, essentially? The process of the formation of this constitution should be scrutinized based on logic, and both its past and present should be examined. This is why this book is titled: Revisiting Our Constitution. This book is a collection of well-researched essays that explore the constitution. Academic efforts have been made in this book to analyze and perceive the constitution from the perspective of ‘Ram Rajya’. A single-government system emerges from the constitution. Ram Rajya has been considered the ultimate ideal of any governance system in India. Mahatma Gandhi also stated that Ram Rajya was the goal of Independent India. On the sesquicentennial year of Gandhi, the noted academic journal Manthan has taken on the responsibility of reviewing the journey of India’s constitution. This effort is not as simple and easy as it might seem. In reality, it is difficult and complex.

The Congress Party has often spoken about fascism and fascist tendencies. The leaders of this party have always accused other leaders of fascist tendencies. But the reality is entirely different. The three chapters in this book provide a chilling account of this party's contempt for democratic traditions and its dalliance with dictatorship. This is an eye-opener for most Indian citizens, who are unaware of the incidents quoted in this book. All in all, this is an exposé to alert citizens and to make them eternally vigilant so that the core values in the Indian Constitution and the democratic traditions remain intact.
