The present book focuses on various issues and threats pertaining to internal security, the various factors and non-state actors creating the threat, the initiatives by the police to strengthen internal security by involving community and how the community participation can strengthen those initiatives by enhancing the community policing measures. The study is focussed on Hyderabad. There are multiple manifestations of internal security which are both implicit and explicit. ‘Communalism’ has been identified as one of the principal threats to internal security with specific reference to Hyderabad. In this background it is highly desirable and required to strengthen ‘community’ to face any eventualities and encourage working and functional partnership with security and law enforcement agencies especially the police forces. Police or community alone cannot manage security concerns. In these globalized times strong partnership between community and police is mandatory. The book based on primary research tries to establish that community policing can be a significant factor in addressing the internal security threats.

It seemed nobody cared for her feelings. She was unable to gauge her own mother’s intentions. I, as an outsider, felt that there were some selfish and ulterior motives behind the seemingly genuine failures of the sincere attempts to get her married. ************* They do not know how zebra is different from a giraffe.

In the last two decades, microfinance has gained growing recognition as an effective tool for improving the quality of life and the living standard of poor and low-income people. Microfinance’s popularity reached a peak when the United Nations declared 2005 the ‘International Year of Microcredit’ and when, one year later, the author of ‘Banker to the Poor’, Muhammad Yunus, was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. This recognition has given rise to a movement that was supposed to accomplish social and financial goals simultaneously and without any friction. However, microfinance as an industry was shaken for the first time in 2008, as a consequence of the international financial crisis, and it again suffered problems more recently. It was reported that the populist moves by politicians led to a mass default of loans, of worth more than US$1.5 billion in the southern Indian state of Andhra Pradesh, the biggest market for the microfinance institutions in India. Measures taken to ensure that the 2008 crisis and its consequences are not repeated include bringing clients’ protection principles to work and building client awareness in order to make informed decisions. This book focuses on the efficacy of ‘financial education’ as a tool towards attaining client protection. It also utilizes the Microfinance Clients Awareness Index to evaluate the factors that impact the level of financial awareness for microfinance clients.

Unveiled is a compilation of short stories that portray the pain of being a girl- from the womb to the tomb. This book is also a compilation of the author's portrayal of the sufferings of the Indian girls and women which she has seen firsthand. Moreover, she herself has been through the fires of gender discrimination. Each of the stories in the book is about girls and women she personally knows or knows about. Therefore, each story is real. It is true. This is reality for women in India. This is the author's personal testimony to the question she asked of God at an early age, "Why did you make me a girl?" Shaw believes that Christ alone has the power to heal the wounds given to the Indian women and has experienced healing herself in Him. She now believes it is her calling to be a voice for the numerous voiceless girls and women. She believes that the words of Jesus to Mary of Magdala, "Woman, why are you weeping ? Whom are you seeking?" span across centuries and nationalities. This book is a source for comfort, healing and miraculous interventions for women. keywords: Unveiled, Women Veils, Indian Women, Culture In India, Indian Culture, Women And Children In India, Vinita Shaw, Wearing Veils, Indian Veils, Suppression Of Indian Women
