Soft cover. Zustand: New. The clash between the British Fourteenth Army and the Japanese Fifteenth Army at Imphal in Manipur and at Kohima in the then-Naga Hills of Assam in 1944 was the turning point in the Burma Campaign of the Second World War. It was at these twin battles that the Japanese invasion of India was stopped, with the Allies subsequently driving them out of Burma in 1945. The Japanese lost some 30,000 men, with another 23,000 injured, in what is considered one of their greatest ever defeats on land. In April 2013, Imphal-Kohima was named 'Britain's Greatest Battle' by the UK's National Army Museum. Indians fought on both sides--as part of the British Army and alongside the Japanese as soldiers of the Indian National Army (INA). This book is the first battlefield guide for Imphal and Kohima and makes extensive use of maps and present-day photographs of the sites to tell the thrilling, tragic story of the historic battle of Imphal-Kohima, 1944.…

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Women empowerment and gender justice result in the development of a nation, reinforcement of its economy, invigoration of society, and eventually the establishment of peace everywhere. An effort has been made in this book to raise the voice of women to achieve gender equality and women empowerment, which is the United Nations' fifth Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) by defying patriarchy, discrimination, exploitation, poverty, and violence against them. It endeavours to explore actual conditions of women in the society, different aspects of women's liberation, various issues related to imparting quality education, apposite health care, various constitutional and legal provisions, and to improve their social, economic and political status. The book comprises research articles on different issues, which advocate how women's empowerment can be achieved by raising their living levels, creating conducive conditions to their growth, increasing their freedom, and removing sexism, gender bias, and stereotypes. Despite various constitutional and legal provisions in India to protect the rights of women, gender inequality remains a primary barrier to meet the UN Sustainable Development Goals because just endorsing the laws without public support and opinion is nothing but a bundle of papers. This book attempts to create a strong public opinion by disseminating relevant information, knowledge, illumination, and creating public awareness to change the mindset of patriarchal, orthodox and tradition-oriented society. When women become aware of their rights and break the glass ceiling to access all the opportunities available to them without any prejudice, only then development, prosperity, and harmony will take place.…

The country was passing through complex and cumulative crisis and was at crucial crossroads due to internal dissensions and external aggressions. The society was divided due to the Brahmanical social order rigid caste system and social stratification and obscurantist and superstitious orthodoxies. In his essay on Hinduism Dr. Karan Singh has perceptively spelt out the social stratification of Indian society which was developed by our thinkers and seers. The Indian Society was classified into four categories on the basis of their intrinsic qualities. The highest caste consists of Brahmins the thinkers philosophers and priests whose main job was to provide educational inputs and religious guidance to society. The Kashatriya's Dharma was to rule the nation and defend it against any aggression. The Vaishyas's main vocation was to carry out commercial and agricultural operations. The fourth category was that of Shudras whose main job was to provide labourers. There were certain categories which were known as out castes and had been facing socio economic exploitations and psychological humiliations for centuries. Thus the system of untouchability has been a disgrace to the remarkable achievement of Hindu civilisation. Despite great trauma and turmoil for many centuries in the whole of India due to Muslim aggressions and conquests Hinduism had to look inward to preserve itself against the wide spread persecution by Muslims. At the same time we witnessed the dawn of a synergic movement in which at the mystical level there was a synthesis between two faiths Hinduism and Islam. These factors led to a devotional revival which is known as Bhakti Movement. The book contains detailed account of the composition of Sri Guru Granth Sahib. The book deals with the setting up of Gurudwaras. It also throws light on significant thoughts and announcements made by the President of India Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam and the Prime Minister of India Dr. Manmohan Singh during their visits to Amritsar in August and September in 2004 on the auspicious occasion of the 400 Anniversary of the installation of the Sri Guru Granth Sahib. An attempt has been made to look at Sri Guru Granth Sahib as a sacred scripture of the world. It also focuses on the fascinating life story of all the Gurus. The teachings of Guru Nanak have been discussed in depth in the book. The book is rounded off with a chapter on the role of the women in Sikhism. Guru Nanak did not attach any impurity to the women and advocated the equality of sex. In his teachings he has throughout maintained that the men and women are equal in the eyes of the almighty. 228 pp. …

From the salt pans of the Rann of Kutch to the lofty peaks in Jammu and Kashmir, from the deserts of Rajasthan to the lush green fields of Punjab, stories emerge of battles fought with great courage and valour, told by the very men who fought that war half a century ago. the defence of Sardar Post in Kutch, the capture of the Hajipir Pass, the operations in Chhamb, the battle of Asal Uttar, the tank battles astride Phillora and a host of other battle accounts have all been skilfully woven into a compelling narrative which brings the war alive there were no victors or vanquished in this war. But Pakistan's design to take the state of Jammu and Kashmir by force were foiled and its offensive forces were crippled in the famous tank battle that took place in Khem Karan Sector and Phillora.
