Education is the foundation of the development of any country. But in our country, the First Education Policy was framed in 1968, 21 years after independence; the second policy was formulated in 1986; 34 years later, India got the National Educational Policy-2020 on 25th July, 2020. Besides these, certain commissions were also constituted for reforms in education, which made some good recommendations, but these could not be implemented for sheer want of political will. For an instance, the Kothari Commission in 1968, recommended 6 per cent of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) for expenditure on education, which was also adopted by the Education Policy-1986, but this is yet to be translated into practice. If we ignore pre-colonial period, the Bharat of post-independence has not yet been able to determine the aim of education. Character building and moulding a human i.e. holistic development of personality should be the aim of education. Essays on related subjects are included in this book. To identify the issues and problems that plague the education, and their solution, we carried out basic but innovative experiments in schools, colleges and universities. The original experiences of these exercises have been penned down as articles and research papers. This book is an anthology of the related writings.

Chanakya Neeti
- Author Name:
R.P. Jain
- Book Type:

- Description: Chanakya was an Indian teacher, philosopher and royal advisor. He managed the first Maurya emperor Chandragupta's rise to power at a young age. He is widely credited for having played an important role in the establishment of the Maurya Empire, which was the first empire in archaeologically recorded history to rule most of the Indian subcontinent.Chanakya is traditionally identified as Kautilya or Vishnu Gupta, who authored the ancient Indian poltical treatise called Arthasastra. As such, he is considered as the pioneer of the field of economics and political science in India, and his work is thought of as an important precursor to Classical Economics.Chanakya Neeti is a treatise on the ideal way of life, and shows Chanakya�s deep study of the Indian way of life. Chanakya also developed Neeti-Sutras (aphorisms�pithy sentences) that tell people how they should behave. Of these well-known 455 sutras, about 216 refer to rajaneeti (the do,s and don�ts of running a kingdom). Apparently, Chanakya used these sutras to groom Chandragupta and other selected disciples in the art of ruling a kingdom.

Upanyas Ki Pahchan : Maila Aanchal
- Author Name:
Gopal Ray
- Book Type:

- Description: गोपाल राय द्वारा ‘उपन्यास की पहचान’ शृंखला में व्यावहारिक आलोचना को आधार बनाकर फणीश्वरनाथ ‘रेणु’ की अप्रतिम रचना ‘मैला आँचल’ को परखने की प्राथमिक कोशिश की गई है। कहते हैं कि ‘मैला आँचल’ के प्रकाशन के बाद हिन्दी में आंचलिक उपन्यासों का आन्दोलन-सा चल पड़ा। ऐसा नहीं है कि भारतीय ग्रामीण जीवन को केन्द्र रखकर उपन्यास न रचे गए हों; किन्तु आंचलिक उपान्यासालोचना का मानदंड रचने में ‘मैला आँचल’ की महत्ती भूमिका रही है। गोपाल राय ने ‘उपन्यास की पहचान’ शृंखला की कड़ी में इन्हीं तथ्यों का उद्घाटन करने के साथ, उपन्यास की व्यावहारिक आलोचना की सैद्धान्तिक पहचान का आधार ‘मैला आँचल’ के कथ्य और शिल्प में तराशने की समग्र कोशिश की है। यह पुस्तक आंचलिक उपन्यास की अवधारणा और हिन्दी उपन्यास की परम्परा को रेखांकित करने के साथ-साथ फणीश्वरनाथ रेणु की उपन्यास-यात्रा पर भी अपनी बात रखती है। ‘मैला आँचल’ के कथ्य, शिल्प, पात्र-योजना, भाषा आदि के रचनात्मक तत्त्वों पर प्राथमिक बयान दर्ज करती है। कह सकते हैं कि उपन्यास के रचनात्मक मानकों की व्यावहारिक परख करते हुए ‘मैला आँचल’ की पढ़त को यह पुस्तक नये आयाम प्रदान करेगी।

- Description: जब अमेरिकी राष्ट्रपति पद के उम्मीदवार जो बाइडन ने इस दौड़ में अपने सहयोगी के तौर पर सीनेटर एवं अटॉर्नी के पद पर कमला हैरिस के नाम की घोषणा की तो पूरी दुनिया की निगाहें उनपर टिक गईं। जब से बाइडन ने इस पद के लिए कमला के नाम की घोषणा की थी, तभी से कुछ सवाल चर्चाओं में थे— कमला हैरिस में ऐसा क्या था, जो इस प्रतिष्ठित पद के लिए उन्हें ही चुना गया? क वह अपनी सफलता का इतना अधिक श्रेय अपनी आप्रवासी भारतीय माँ को क्यों देती हैं? वह आधुनिक अमेरिका के एक ऐसे देश पर अपनी पकड़ बनाने की कल्पना भी कैसे कर सकीं, जो कई गुटों में बँटा है और जहाँ जमकर चुनाव लड़ा जाता है? ‘कमला हैरिस की बायोग्राफी’ एक साहसी और करिश्माई महिला की कहानी है, जो सभी बाधाओं को मात देती है और आज की राजनीति की विषम परिस्थितियों में भी अपने सिद्धांतों पर अडिग रहती है। कमला स्वयं अपनी मार्गदर्शक हैं, जिनसे कई लोग व्यापक समावेशी संसार के निर्माण की आशा रखते हैं और एक नायक के तौर पर उनका प्रेरणादायी व्यक्तित्व विश्वास दिलाता है कि पर्वत को जीतनेवाली वह आखिरी महिला नहीं होंगी।

Richa
The cornerstone of each nation's development is education. Yet in our nation, the National Educational Policy-2020 was adopted on July 25, 2020, 34 years after the First Education Policy was created in 1968, 21 years after independence. In addition to these, various commissions for educational reform were established. These commissions produced some excellent recommendations, but for lack of political will, they were never put into action. The goal of education should be to shape and develop human character. In this collection, essays on similar topics are presented. The author carried out creative experiments in many schools, colleges, and universities to pinpoint the concerns and problems that afflict education and their solution. This book includes articles and research papers that detail the initial experience of these studies. Hence, this book is an anthology of works and articles on relevant topics. Loved the overall quality of the book and the services provided by Rachnaye.
