This book critically examines the socio-economic impacts of out-migration on households and gender dynamics in rural northern India. The first of its kind, this study unearths, through detailed regional and demographical research, the ways in which economic and migratory trends of male family members in rural India in general, and hilly regions of Garhwal in particular, affect the wives, children, extended families, and agricultural lands that they have left behind. It offers vital research in how rural India’s socio-economic formations and topographic characteristics can today more effectively contribute to the national and global economy with respect to migratory trends, gender dynamics and home life. Furthermore, it investigates the collapse of agricultural and many other traditional economic activities without a corresponding creation of fresh economic opportunities. This book moreover elucidates how male out-migration from rural to urban centres has greatly re-shaped kinship and economic structures at places of origin and has consequently had a serious impact on the socio-psychological well-being of family members. This book will be of great value to scholars and researchers of development economics, agricultural economics, environment studies, sociology, social anthropology, population studies, gender and women’s studies, social psychology, migration and diaspora studies, South Asian studies and behavioral studies.
The present book on the Biodiversity of Ranthambhore Tiger Reserve deals with 539 species of higher plants and 361 species of animals (vertebrates). Besides geographical position and topography, the abiotic components, viz. geology, soils, water, climatic conditions etc., which determine the composition of biota in an ecosystem, have been discussed in details. Correct and valid names have been adopted for the floral and faunal elements along with local and English names. The keys have been provided for plant species from infra-specific to family level for easy identification. The short diagnostic description, phenology, ecology and distributional aspects have been provided under each plant species. Besides statistical analysis of floral composition, the phytogeographical and biological spectra have also been worked out to determine the routes of migration and phytoclimate respectively. Bioperspective value of the Reserve has been assessed to determine the economic potentiality and sustainable utilization of bioresources. The faunal diversity includes vertebrate fauna only, arranged in a classified manner. The shelter and feeding habits along with dependency of fauna on vegetation have been provided to determine plant-animal relationship and flow of energy. Details about endemic and threatened species of plants and animals, along with causes of threats, have been given for proper management of the Reserve. About 107 colour photographs of habitat and plants and animals with 36 illustrations of plant species have been provided. Several maps, pie charts, graphs, figures etc, along with data-tables, are appended to illustrate the findings. It is hoped that the book will prove a milestone in the management of the Reserve.

From Anamika’s diary, intuitive Prashant reflectively recreated flashbacks of the intriguing revelations of Pandey Niwas’s environs and Anamika’s life from innocent childhood to adolescence. A vivid vista is created with the inextricably intertwined episodes of - The banishment of Sanjay who is ostracized on the accusations of molesting women during Holi. - A saga of love triangles, betrayals due to seductive beauty and erotic manoeuvrability of corrivals, surprisingly ending in absolution instead of hatred. - A live extravaganza of extreme moments of intimate physical union, when the utterance of one word inadvertently turned the lustful Anjana frigid and her revival of sexual exuberance, as if from ‘desert to an oasis’ and from ‘rancid despair into pulsating expectancy’. An antithesis of ‘Frailty thy name is woman’, Anamika is the epitome of courage, conviction and congruity, her motto being ‘resolve to logical conclusion’. Her intrinsic instinct for survival had withstood the onslaught of many frightful adversities on her ‘Savior’ family, friends and inmates of Pandey Niwas. Anamika, an embodiment of femininity, grace, attractiveness and alluring was married to Satyendra, an example of masculinity, handsomeness, muscled and driven, in a very memorable ceremony. Their relationship in their first night was a worldly replica of the cosmic love Radha had for Krishna. They promised not to be separated till they died. On the 20th day of their marriage, Satyendra was found hanged. Is it a suicide or murder? A horrid stratagem? Prashant, once back in the real world, unravels the mystery of death – a horrendous conspiracy replete with sex and revenge.
