Will sex tourism blossom in Kashmir? Ajit Chak speaks of many mysteries in his book Kashmir Storm. He speaks in a muted voice about the riots of 1984. He speaks of how a leader from South India could have driven a wedge between the Gandhi family and the Nehru family in the Congress Party and how Rajiv Gandhis security was compromised. He links Rajivs death in South India to the downfall of the Congress in Uttar Pradesh and the rise of regional parties in the state and the breakdown of law and order there. He talks of how customs in Uttar Pradesh promote rape within marriage, how giving tee shirts and mobile phones to girls can actually increase cases of rape, and lastly he talks in detail about the Muslim politics of the nation in UP, where almost half the entire population of Mulsims in the nation lives and works. The year is 2016. Sex tourism is booming in Kashmir as the states economy has collapsed following the floods and inflow of Jehadis. Since prostitution is legal in Kashmir, there is little the police can do about it. Under Article 370, no Indian law can apply in Kashmir. The book reverses the Love Jihad theory has a Muslim heroine who goes through all kinds of risks for her paramour a Hindu lad from Noida and Delhi. The girl who has come from Pakistan to India eventually decides to move in with him and settle down as she cannot live without him. The book also skims through the plight of Kashmiri Pandits and how they were driven out of Kashmir.
The newspaper headlines read ‘Young girl shot by her lover in Vapi railway yard’. Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP) Raghuraj Rai deputes Assistant Police Inspector (API) Reeva Deshpande to investigate the case. When Reeva Deshpande sets out to probe the murder, she finds herself entangled in the chain of mannequins, monkeys and monks of the trade. The trade here is the greed and desires of few men under scrutiny to the basic rights of others who merely exist and survive. Reeva realises that when a whole society lives under the clouds of crime, her own roof cannot be safe. Like mannequins, they enter the city; like monkeys, they jump from branches to branches to fulfil their greed; and like monks, they manipulate people for their own convenience. This book is about Devakinandan Singh and Lanus Polo, who believe that power flows through the barrel of a gun. What they forget is that by force they can control the world but not their own fate.

The subject of Strategy is extremely complex and perhaps can be taught only through the use of Cases. Unfortunately, most of the available cases in Strategic Management tend to be extremely long, which test more the patience rather than the intellectual rigour. This book thus fulfills the void in the literature by offering a bouquet of cases that are designed not only to test the operational understanding but the conceptual and intellectual discipline that the reader must inculcate to be a successful strategist.The book contains 24 cases, ranging from mammoth public sector organisations like SBI and SAIL to global corporations like Cray and Apple, as also the sublimely interesting episodes in the like of Phoolan Devi and Princess Diana. All the cases are extremely readable, and are designed to introduce the different aspects of Strategic Management to the reader.The book is a must read for students, strategists as well as practicing managers.
Divided Family is my autobiography. I moved with my parents when I was 5 years old to Kenya from Punjab, India, when the WWII was going on. My father along with a partner opened a furniture making business. He left the business in the hand of his partner for six months to take care of his mother in India. The flourishing business was in bad debts on his return from India. He took over the business. His brother undertook to live as a joint family and work together to pay off the business and his wedding expenses. His brother turned his back against my father. As such, as a first-born child, when I was about 10 years old many responsibilities fell on me according to Indian culture and my upbringing. Due to the uprising of the Mau Mau and struggle for the independence of Kenya, my father never recovered entirely from his financial troubles. When I started working, my father took my wages to maintain household expenses. After completing by college education part-time, I got married and left for England for further study and work. As I failed to oblige my father with a financial support from England, he was adamant that I should return to Kenya, and I did. As parents had more authority over the lives of their children, I had to hold up a prefect silent, but I broke the silence. This contributed to family verbal abuses from my parents and his other siblings. This made me to seek employment in Zambia and escape the British permit requirements for Asian British citizens to enter their homeland, United Kingdom. I eventually moved to Canada. This is my first attempt at publishing a full book. Divided Family is suitable for general readers who are seeming for some knowledge about an Asian child is docile and amenable by their parent’s. There's a sequence if a child goes against his parents' wishes and goes away from the family to settle in a new country as a migrant. He confronts new issues, but how he got the best.

This research based book offers insight to the changing perspectives regarding FDI from traditional theory to new theory, from local to global link, and from opportunity to responsibility. Readers will understand the various factors, determinants, and theories that underpin the presence of firms in the global economy. The author illustrates, by way of case studies, specific implications of FDI policy and practice on issues like ecology and environment, technology transfer, labor market, and relevance of further liberalization policies in FDI in the context of Indian economy. The coverage for such an important theme is too vast to cover in a single volume; therefore, this volume restricts its analysis to a select few themes in hopes that this endeavor will trigger an ongoing debate on myriad aspects and concerns of FDI on countries like India.
Understanding Microbes is vital to understand the past and the future of mankind and our planet. These are the oldest form of life on the earth. Microbes provide us with oxygen to breathe and food to eat. Without microbes life is impossible on the earth. Microbes cause as well as prevent diseases, hence are highly relevant to medicine and other related health sciences too. Research and biotechnological applications of Microbes is a fascinating field of science and increasingly being seen as a mainstream tenet of biology. The present book focuses on diverse areas of microbial research and provides a wealth of information on the microbial world: biochemistry of the molecules, their functions, syntheses, and regulation activity; microbial genetics, immunology, biotechnology, control of microbial growth, interactions between humans, insects and microorganisms and public health, microbial ecology, terrestrial microbiology, microbiology of waste treatment and so on.

First published in 1985. The need to increase agricultural output and to use increased output to generate sustained general economic development is a problem facing many Third World countries. This book explores in particular the agricultural growth of the Punjab in Northern India, a country which has long been a leader in the formulation of new development strategies. It shows how agricultural output is affected by, and affects, demographic changes, income distribution, state involvement and structural changes both in society and the economy. Agricultural growth in the Punjab is seen in an historical perspective. In addition, the different aspects of economic development are viewed in an integrated way so that much is learned about the contribution of agricultural growth to the development process. The conclusions drawn can be related to problems and trends worldwide.

Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2019 in the subject Computer Sciences - Internet of Things, IOT, grade: 9.11, , course: Computer Science, language: English, abstract: A typical comprehension of "cloud computing" is constantly advancing, and the phrasing and "Cloud comp uting" was begat for what happens when services and a pplications are moved into the internet that is cloud. Cloud processing is not something that abruptly seemed overnight; in some structure it may follow back to a period when computer system f rameworks remotely time-shared registering assets and applications. All the more presently however, cloud computing allud es to the a wide range of sorts of applications and services being conveyed in the cloud and the way that, much of the time, the devices used to get to these services don't require any unique applications. With the help of cloud computing, you can utiliz e programming conveyed through the Internet on the pro gram with no installation, have an application on the Internet, set up your own storage of remote file and database framework and that's just the beginning.
Academic Paper from the year 2018 in the subject Computer Science - Miscellaneous, grade: 8.4, Patna Women's College (Patna Women's College), course: MCA Computing Science, language: English, abstract: Cloud computing is highly being used for several years for various purpose s. From daily tasks, such as reading e-mails, watching videos to the factory automation and device control, it changed where the data is being processed and how it is accessed. However, increasing number of connected devices brings problems, such as low Quality of Service (QoS) due to infras-tructure resources and high latency because of the bandwidth limitations. The current tendency to solve the problems that the Cloud computing has is performing the computations as close as possible to the device. This paradigm is called Edge Computing. There are several proposed architectures for the Edge Computing, but there is no an accepted standard by the community or the industry. Besides, there is not a common agreement on how the Edge Computing architecture physically looks like. In this paper, we describe the Edge Computing, explain how its architecture looks like, its requirements, and enablers. We also define the major features that one Edge Server should support.
Knowledge Management is the process by which an organization identifies, creates, manages and delivers information to enhance workforce performance.KM is a discipline that promotes an integrated approach to identifying, capturing, evaluating, retrieving, and sharing all of an enterprise's information assets.
