This new volume provides detailed insight into supply chain management (SCM) and supply chain performance measurement (SCPM) in the textile industry. The book provides a comprehensive set of performance sub-criteria for the evaluation of SCPM, offering the information needed to understand, implement, and evaluate the supply chain performance of the textile industry and its cyclic processes. Using the Delphi method (a process used to arrive at a group opinion or decision by surveying a panel of experts), the authors studied several companies of diverse sizes and applied an analytical hierarchy process to establish crucial performance measurement criteria and sub-criteria. Around 80 textile industry personnel were contacted, including general managers, factory managers, managers, assistant managers, executives, and supervisors involved in various functions related to textile supply chains to discuss procurement, production, and distribution alternatives. The authors employed the multi-criteria decision-making technique, i.e. analytical hierarchy process, for executing pair-wise comparison and establishing priority weights of criteria, sub-criteria, and for estimating the contribution of supply chain cyclic processes to overall supply chain performance.

This book lays out the nuances of all those stories of ‘Sangh and Sarkar’ layer by layer. Since the year 2014, there has been a wonderful example of coordination between the Sangh and BJP. Then there are many such examples like reservation, UP CM, BHU Vice Chancellor where there were possibilities of confrontation, but the matters were resolved in a few hours through dialogue. Social harmony for the penetration among Dalits, the campaign to create an intellectual movement after the JNU scandal, Pranab Mukherjee’s visit to the Sangh headquarters, the vision of ‘Future India’ from Vigyan Bhavan and finally, direct contact with three and a half lakh villages regarding the issues of the Modi government within the context of nationality not only increased the base of both the Sangh and the BJP, but the Vichar Pariwar also played an important role in preparing the ground for a bigger victory than in the year 2014. After the 2019 victory, ideological issues such as Article 370, Ram Mandir, etc. were swiftly dealt with so that commitment of those inclined towards the ideology of Sangh-BJP could be sealed. This book discusses how to take steps towards building new India by ending the gap of six decades in six years.

This book discusses policies to achieve inclusive growth in India and realise the demographic dividend, which will end by 2040 when India will become an aging society. India is the world's fastest growing large economy, but jobs are not growing equally rapidly. The size of India's youth workforce is worrying, and the largely informal workforce is not covered by social insurance. Universal elementary education, despite the Right to Education Act 2009, is yet to be achieved. Health outcomes have improved only slowly over the years. Furthermore, sanitation still remains a very serious problem. As an economist and former policy-maker, the author discusses specific policies to address these problems, well beyond what is currently being practised. The book also deals with the governance issues that need to be addressed before inclusive growth can be attained.
This book focuses on the provision of basic social services - in particular, access to education, health and water supplies - as the central building blocks of any human development strategy. The authors concentrate on how these basic social services can be financed and delivered more effectively to achieve the internationally agreed Millennium Development Goals. Their analysis, which departs from the dominant macro-economic paradigm, deploys the results of broad-ranging research they led at UNICEF and UNDP, investigating the record on basic social services of some 30 developing countries. In seeking to learn from these new data, they develop an analytical argument around two potential synergies: at the macro level, between poverty reduction, human development and economic growth, and at the micro level, between interventions to provide basic social services. Policymakers, they argue, can integrate macro-economic and social policy. Fiscal, monetary, and other macro-economic policies can be compatible with social sector requirements. They make the case that policymakers have more flexibility than is usually presented by orthodox writers and international financial institutions, and that if policymakers engaged in alternative macro-economic and growth-oriented policies, this could lead to the expansion of human capabilities and the fulfillment of human rights. This book explores some of these policy options. The book also argues that more than just additional aid is needed. Specific strategic shifts in the areas of aid policy, decentralized governance, health and education policy and the private-public mix in service provision are a prerequisite to achieve the goals of human development. The combination of governance reforms and fiscal and macro-economic policies outlined in this book can eliminate human poverty in the span of a generation.
A mysterious phenomenon strikes a forested hamlet inhabited by tribal people. A scientific organisation in Mumbai thinks that studying the phenomenon may open up floodgates of knowledge to some new source of energy. It commissions Veer, a brilliant but agnostic young scinetist, who since childhood has been getting unfathomable weird dreams of a village, to collect samples. When Veer prepares to go back after collecting samples, another mysterious incident takes place, this time with himself. Awed but thrilled, he postpones his return journey and upon initial probing, finds that Lord Hanuman once roamed about in this hamlet. Veer sets out on a long journey to unearth his mysterious childhood dreams which, he now is sure, were actually linked with this village. As he delves in more, he comes across thrilling facts and myths on Hanuman, Lord Shiva, Linga and Yoni, all intricately linked with the tribal inhabitants here, and many of his childhood dreams start making sens. But what he finally discovers is a world beyond common beliefs

The world is expecting India to lead it in near future, but does India have a noose to bind the world together? Just as our heritage and culture helped him and many other NRIs run successful businesses, he has found a path which can be adopted for individual success and through which India can become the ‘Modern Golden Bird.' Dr. (Vaidya) Santosh Sharma hails from a tiny village in the rejuvenating mountainous state of Himachal Pradesh, India. While living in Kalka, he pursued his studies and gained his initial life experiences in Chandigarh, and as society demanded, he started working late 20th century at a nearby private firm. In 1997, at the age of 38, his soul forced him to break the traditional norms and make a landmark decision to shift his base to Europe along with his family. There on, he started the tough journey of rediscovering and sharing the story of India, and its heritage and culture with Eastern Europe by opening a small Indian shop, Szep Kis India (Little Beautiful India) with his wife, Mrs. Kamlesh Sharma, in Budapest. Today, Szep Kis India is the oldest and biggest Indian store in Hungary and even offers exotic products from other countries. Dr. Sushant Sharma is a young medical doctor who hails from the rolling hills of the lesser Himalayas. His passion for writing led to the creation of the psychological crime thriller, Projekt Nowhere , published with Garuda Prakashan. With his love for India, its heritage and culture, and to propagate the same among the young generation, he collaborated with Dr. (Vaidya) Santosh Sharma to pen down the exemplary story of an entrepreneur who built his business in Europe based on Indian roots.
