Download or read book The Struggle for India's Independence in Bihar 1912-22 written by Shaukat A. Khan and published by Blue Rose Publishers. This book was released on 2023-12-27 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work looks back at the role Bihar played in the struggle for India's independence in the first decade after its separation from Bengal as a province in 1912, particularly through the archival material contained in the contemporary confidential government files preserved in the Bihar State Archives, Patna. It uncovers some significant facts and dimensions like rumor-mongering adopted as a mode of struggle by the revolutionaries against British rule during World War I and the establishment of parallel administration at different levels during the Non-Cooperation Movement by its local leaders in Bihar. While it scrutinizes the sorrowful tales of sufferings of the Indian people under British colonial rule, it also raises questions about how the hate politics and hate crimes under BJP's rule, particularly against Minorities and Dalits can be justified as less brutal than the brutalities committed under the tyrannical British rule? Or how the targetted use of draconian laws or law enforcing agencies against those who question its unconstitutional and repressive policies and communal or rather hate politics can be justified as just in independent India under democratic government, and the use of similar laws or law enforcing agencies as repressive and unjust under despotic British rule?

Download or read book Nitish Kumar and the Rise of Bihar written by Arun Sinha and published by Penguin Books India. This book was released on 2011 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The conventional wisdom in Bihar's political circles was that development did not win votes. Nitish Kumar challenged that assumption and changed the face of the state. Born into a humble family in Bakhtiyarpur, Nitish joined the Lohiaite Socialist Party and built his constituency, literally day by day, forgoing a stable job to travel to distant villages, suffering both financial hardship and ridicule for the eight years it took him to win people's confidence. Veteran journalist Arun Sinha tells the story of Nitish Kumar's rise against the larger canvas of social and political upheaval in Bihar, exploring the emergent desire for equality that drove progressive movements from late 1960s onwards and brought about a regime change by the 1990s. After an initial association with Lalu Prasad Yadav, Nitish Kumar rejected identity politics, recognizing that Bihar had to transcend caste if it was to grow. Nitish Kumar and the Rise of Bihar is a clear-sighted study of Indian electoral politics that unfolds with the pace of a political drama, offering hard facts and an incisive analysis of the state's turbulent trajectory. Sinha steers the narrative deftly through the complex groupings of Bihar's political arena to reveal Nitish Kumar's acumen in bringing law and order, roads, education and health to the fore of governance. From feudal politics to caste identities, and finally to development Bihar could prove to be the model for India's post-Independence journey.

Download or read book The Brothers Bihari written by Sankarshan Thakur and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2015-10-15 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Laloo Yadav and Nitish Kumar, chalk and cheese. One a charismatic populist, the other a shrewd introvert. Taken together, a mesmerizing duo: heroes to some, villains to others, champions of the underdog yet imperious of manner; allies in youth, foes in mid-life, now ageing veterans. For a quarter of a century, the two by turns dictated the destiny of Bihar.What do Laloo and Nitish mean to Bihar? Here, for the first time, a revised and updated omnibus edition of Sankarshan Thakur's widely acclaimed biographies of the men. From one of India's finest journalists, this masterful narrative--part personal memoir, part political portraiture, part unsparing perspective--is essential reading to understand Bihar. In the lives of the two giants also lies the arresting story of one of India's largest and most challenging states.

Download or read book Bihar and Mithila written by J. Albert Rorabacher and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2016-09-13 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world has become obsessed with the Western notions of progress, development, and globalization, the latter a form of human and economic homogenization. These processes, through the aegis of the United Nations, are comparatively monitored. Those nations deemed to be ‘lagging behind’ are then provided with foreign aid and developmental assistance. For nearly seventy years, India has sought its place in this global endeavour; yet, even today, abject poverty and backwardness can be observed in districts in almost every state; with the highest concentration of such districts found in the state of Bihar and a cultural enclave, known as Mithila. Development in India has been elusive because it is difficult to define; and because the Western concepts of development and progress have no absolute equivalents within many non-Western settings. As a consequence, development programmes often fail because they are unable to ask the right questions, but equally important is the political economy derived from foreign aid. For politicians, there is no long-term benefit to be derived from successful development. In general, foreign aid only serves to corrupt governments and politicians and, in the end, does very little for those who need help. The struggling states of Bihar and Mithila serve as extreme examples of India‘s problems. Development here has been thwarted by a hereditary landed aristocracy supported by religion, casteism, custom, social stratification, tradition, and patterns of behaviour that can be traced back millennia. In turn, all these have been masterfully manipulated by co-opted politicians, who have turned politics into a veritable art form as this volume comprehensively demonstrates.

Download or read book The New Bihar written by N. K. Singh and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2015-11-01 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bihar was at the heart of the first two all-India empires in history, that of the Mauryas and the Guptas. Justly famous for its education, with universities at Vikramshila and Nalanda, it was also home to scholars like Kautilya, Aryabhata and Panini. However, the state went into a downward spiral after Independence, and by the 1980s it was at the bottom of the heap on all human development indices. After decades of stagnation and decline, the state, under the leadership of Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, began to show remarkable progress. Notorious for crime and violence, it became relatively safe and secure. A state where development and growth were unheard of for decades began to show both in ample measure. In The New Bihar, N.K. Singh and Nicholas Stern have put together a collection of perceptive essays on the Bihar model of development - its achievements, shortcomings and the bumpy road ahead. Brimming with insights into issues bedevilling the various sectors of the state's economy, The New Bihar is a compelling read for economists, politicians, policymakers, students of political economy and anyone interested in the prosperity of India.

Download or read book Partition as Border-Making written by Sayeed Ferdous and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2021-09-30 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book critically analyzes the Partition experiences from East Bengal in 1947 and its prolonged aftermath leading to the creation of Bangladesh in 1971. It looks at how newly emerged borderlands at the time of Partition affected lives and triggered prolonged consequences for the people living in East Bengal/Bangladesh. The author brings to the fore unheard voices and unexplored narratives, especially those relating the experience of different groups of Muslims in the midst of the falling apart of the unified Muslim identity. Drawing on in-depth ethnographic research and archival resources, the volume analyzes various themes such as partition literature, local narratives of border-making, smuggling, border violence, refugees, identity conflicts, border crossing, and experiences of the Bihari Muslims and the Hindus of East Pakistan, among others. A unique study in border-making, this book will be an essential read for scholars and researchers of history, South Asian history, Partition studies, oral history, anthropology, political history, refugee studies, minority studies, political science, and borderland studies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Museum planners Gail Lord and Ngaire Blankenberg demonstrate how museums and cities are using their soft power to address some of the most important issues of our time.Soft power is the exercise of influence through attraction, persuasion, and agenda-setting rather than military or economic coercion.Thirteen of the world's leading museum and cultural experts from six continents explore the many facets of soft power in cities and museums to include: how it amplifies civic discourse, accelerates cultural change, and contributes to contextual intelligence among the great diversity of city dwellers, visitors, and policy makers. The authors urge city governments to embrace museums which so often are the signifiers of their cities, increasing real estate values while attracting investment, tourists, and creative workers. Lord and Blankenberg propose 32 practical strategies for museums and cities to activate their soft power and create thriving and sustainable communities.
