The Indomitable Chemist

The Biography of 'Bharat Ratna' Prof. C. N. R. Rao

By: Dr. Arvind Yadav

Prof. CNR Rao is a living legend. Einstein paid a compliment to Mahatma Gandhi on his 70th birthday. He said, “Generations to come, it may well be, will scarce believe that such a man as this one ever in flesh and blood walked upon this earth”. On Prof. Rao’s birthday, I would repeat these words. Prof. Rao is not an individual, he is an institution, he is a phenomenon. I feel lucky that our generations could see him, touch him, feel him, experience him, learn from him and get inspired by him. I have watched Prof. Rao as a scientist, as a science leader, as a science institution builder and indeed as a leader of leaders of science. I have also watched him as a wonderful, warm-hearted human being with abundant empathy. I have seen his childlike enthusiasm. I have watched him as `courage personified’. What follows is more anecdotal but solely based on my personal viewpoint. Professor Rao has had a tremendous influence on my life. He has been my guru, guide, friend and philosopher. I met him for the first time when he was the Chairman of the Research Advisory Council of the National Chemical Laboratory (NCL) in the nineteen eighties. I was then in my late thirties. Professor Rao has an uncanny ability to spot talent among the young. He was the President of the Indian Science Congress in the year 1988, which was held in Pune University. Mr. Rajiv Gandhi was the Prime Minister and he inaugurated the Science Congress. Later on, during the lunch that followed, Prof. Rao made a special point to introduce me to Rajiv Gandhi. I still remember his words. He said, `Mr. Prime Minister, meet a rising young star of Indian science’. Little did I then know that within the next couple of months, he would make me a member of the Science Advisory Council to the Prime Minister, which he was chairing. At 42, I was the youngest member and I remember people calling me the `baby’ of the team. Getting that huge exposure at such a young age was something very special for me – I got a helicopter view of India at large. It helped me enormously as I moved on in life.

India's Undeclared Emergency: Constitutionalism and the Politics of Resistance

By: Arvind Narrain

About the Book A SHARP AND NECESSARY ANALYSIS OF THE NATURE OF THE CONSTITUTIONAL CRISIS INDIA FACES TODAY In 1975, the Indira Gandhi government declared Emergency in India, unveiling an era of State excesses, human rights violations, the centralisation of power and the dismantling of democracy. Nearly half a century later, the phrase ‘undeclared emergency’ gathers currency as citizens and analysts struggle to define the nature of India’s present crisis. In Undeclared Emergency, Arvind Narrain presents a devastatingly thorough examination of the nature of this emergency—a systematic attack on the rule of law that hits at the foundation of a democracy, its Constitution. This clear-eyed legal analysis of its implications also documents an ongoing history of constitutional subversion, one that predates the Narendra Modi-led NDA government—a lineage of curtailed freedoms, censorship, preventive detention laws and diluted executive accountability. Is history repeating itself then? Not quite. This book is an account of an inaugural era in Indian history. Narrain shows that the Modi government, unlike the Congress government of 1975, draws on popular support and this raises the dangerous possibility that today’s authoritarian regime could become tomorrow’s totalitarian state. A lament, Undeclared Emergency is also a war cry. It charts an alternative inheritance of resistance, acts big and small from the Emergency of 1975, the current day and times long gone. Dissent, Narrain says, is an Indian tradition. The Second Coming is at hand, and Narrain reckons that we have a responsibility to determine what it will look like.

Milkman to Millionaire

Biography of Sardar Jodh Singh, a Legendary Entrepreneur

By: Dr. Arvind Yadav

Biography of Sardar Jodh Singh Sardar Jodh Singh: A Life of Courage and Fortitude Sardar Jodh Singh’s inspirational story is filled with unexpected highs and lows. His larger-than-life quest for success makes him a role model for every middle-class citizen. Armed with nothing but grit and determination, the man managed to fight against adversity and emerge as a winner repeatedly. Throughout his journey, the only constant was his love, affection and devotion with regard to his family. Having lost his mother at a young age, Sardar Jodh Singh was no stranger to sorrow and hardship. He put his nose to the grindstone very early in life, understanding that the whims and vagaries of fate spare no one. Despite his fortitude, fate was unkind to him repeatedly. The family lost everything due to the blood-soaked event of the Partition. They were uprooted from their ancestral lands and lost contact with the men and women they had grown up around and spent years with. The brutal consequences of the geographical bifurcation of the country had wide-ranging effects on the lives of ordinary people like Jodh Singh. Not one to be deterred so easily, Jodh started life from scratch in newly-formed India. He slowly put together everything that his family needed- a roof over their heads, a source of income and social capital. He began the business of cattle trade and dairy products with just one coincidental deal but expanded until he had a monopoly in the field. He earned fame and trust as a businessman, all through his ethical practices and hard work. Later, he mastered many other fields such as transportation, the fodder business and even education. In his last few years, his philanthropic work led to his name becoming synonymous with benevolence and righteousness.

Norms and Politics

Sir Benegal Narsing Rau in the Making of the Indian Constitution, 1935–50

By: Arvind Elangovan

During the twilight of British rule in India, a little-known civil servant, Sir Benegal Narsing Rau (1887–1953), was sought after by the ruling elites—both British and Indian—for his immense knowledge of the nature and working of the constitutions of the world as well as his reputation for being just and impartial between competing political interests. Yet, Rau’s ideas and his voice have largely been forgotten today. By examining Rau’s constitutional ideas and following their trajectory in late colonial Indian politics, this book shows how the process of the making of the Indian constitution was actually never separated from the politics of conflict that dominated this period. This book demonstrates that it is only by foregrounding this political history that we can simultaneously remember Rau’s critical contributions as well as understand why he was forgotten in the first place.

Religious Studies and Comparative Methodology

The Case for Reciprocal Illumination

By: Arvind Sharma

Comparison is at the heart of religious studies as a discipline and foundational to the field's methodology. In this book, Arvind Sharma introduces the term "reciprocal illumination" to describe the mutual enlightenment that can occur when a comparison is made between one tradition and another, one method and another, or between a tradition and a method. Developing the concept of reciprocal illumination through historical, phenomenological, and psychological methods, Sharma demonstrates how to use comparison, while avoiding the pitfall of treating it as merely raw material for higher order generalizations.

A Master Surgeon in Love with Humanity

By: Dr. Arvind Yadav

A Master Surgeon in love with Humanity’ delineates the story of renowned surgeon Dr. Shyama Prasad. An avid reader since childhood, Shyama Prasad was the brightest among all his siblings. Driven with mounds of inquisitiveness, he was inclined to heuristic approaches and was always passionate for pressing himself with empirical practices to grasp the concepts better. He was infused with the knack of performing surgeries right from his days as a student. There were moments when he was at his wits’ end. Nevertheless, his diligent pursuit of excellence in his field aided to his metier. The book beautifully melds historical accounts with the story of the doctor and provides the readers insights to some major events that betided earlier. Furthermore, the book recounts the story of Shyama Prasad's father, Dr. Sundaraiah and allows readers to delve in. A depiction of Sundaraiah's fair share of struggle inscribed in the book suffices to establish that it is the story of a father and son who moved mountains to attain the fount of unparalleled success.

Earthworms (Verms) have long been described as the intestine of the earth, friends of farmers and so on, because of their manifold functions in the soil. Recently, earthworms have come to be recognized as one of the bioreactors due to their ability to degrade organic waste materials into available vermin-compost and the technology is being described as vermiculture technology or Vermitechnology. Due to population explosion beyond the limit and rapid urbanization, total agricultural land area is decreasing day by day. These are directly affecting the crop production. Although due to the usage of various chemical fertilizers and pesticides, yield of crop production have been increased multi-folds, but their excessive and imbalance usage causing tremendous alterations in natural soil environment. In order to cope with this trenchant problem, the vermitechnology has become the most suitable remedial device of the day. Therefore, the present book entitled Verms & Vermitechnology has been edited to make the low cost vermitechnology a grand success among the farmers, researchers and academicians.

Why Growth Matters

How Economic Growth in India Reduced Poverty and the Lessons for Other Developing Countries

By: Jagdish Bhagwati,Arvind Panagariya

In its history since Independence, India has seen widely different economic experiments: from Jawharlal Nehru's pragmatism to the rigid state socialism of Indira Gandhi to the brisk liberalization of the 1990s. So which strategy best addresses India's, and by extension the world's, greatest moral challenge: lifting a great number of extremely poor people out of poverty? Bhagwati and Panagariya argue forcefully that only one strategy will help the poor to any significant effect: economic growth, led by markets overseen and encouraged by liberal state policies. Their radical message has huge consequences for economists, development NGOs and anti-poverty campaigners worldwide. There are vital lessons here not only for Southeast Asia, but for Africa, Eastern Europe, and anyone who cares that the effort to eradicate poverty is more than just good intentions. If you want it to work, you need growth. With all that implies.
