When the first edition of this book appeared, India''s independence from British rule was still a relatively recent event. This fifth edition coincides with the return of the Congress Party to political power as the leading party in a new government in India. The book gives a clear and comprehensive account of the complex factors which led to the rise and eventual success of Indian nationalism in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries until recent times. It presents the story of what was involved in the freedom struggle -- the nationalist demands brought together by clearly formulated, underlying notions of cultural and national identity which convinced the British politicians that their withdrawal was not only a necessity but an imperative that could not be, nor should be, long denied. The analysis begins with the groups and individuals responsible for Western-style political organisations, examining their social background and the part played by the Indian National Congress in the struggle for independence. The narration traces the developments from Nehru and Indira Gandhi through to Rajiv Gandhi as prime ministers of India, the coming of VP Singh, the demolition of Babri Masjid in Ayodhya in 1992, and its aftermath, the coming of the National Democratic Alliance to power with BJP at the head in 1999 up to its defeat in the 2004 elections, and the comeback of the Congress.

This book delves into the similarities and uniqueness in the life of the two contemporary spiritual masters -- Sai Baba and Ramana Maharshi. The approach and teachings of the two masters may seem to differ for a casual observer, but when one studies the two no difference can be seen. The simplicity and universality of their messages creates a connection between them too. Above all, the love'' that they radiated to all living beings was remarkable. If these messages are realised by the devotees of both Sri Sai and Sri Ramana, the world will be a much better place to live in. This subject makes the book stand out. Being a passionate devotee of the two and a meticulous scholar, the author presents here his collection of editorials written over the past many years in Sai Sudha.

Do you today feel that praying to God is like a routine? Do you consider scriptures as merely a collection of writings? Do you connect to the God living in the scripture? You might be intelligent and savvy, but don''t you need God to explain the world around you and within you? This book comes from two like-minded professionals who felt the urge to share the profound things if God and the treasures of His grace. To this end, they referred to the eternal teachings of Bhagavad Gita. It''s a fact that all of us draw energy from the same God and finally we terminate with the same God. Abounding with God''s messages, each page reveals the truth that God wants us to apply on our own and ultimately reach him. With sincere and humble intentions, the authors beckon you to imbibe God''s word, which is not only spiritually energising but also intellectually gratifying.

The banking industry is now required to provide banking facilities to all the eligible citizens and financial inclusion is driven in that direction. Financial literacy is the need of the hour. The competency levels of bankers plays a significant role in spreading financial literacy. This book provides necessary tools for bankers to improve their competency level, not only in spreading financial literacy, but also in all areas of banker-customer relationships. Even though the banker-customer relationship is governed by numerous laws, the bond between the banker and customer is beyond them. The cases and case laws cited in the book provide an insight to the banker-how he should work within the framework of law and, at the same time, not dissatisfy the customer. The banker should be a friend, philosopher and guide to the customer. Deficiency of service is well explained in the book. This will be an eye opener to the banker and help to avoid deficiencies in banking services. The book also contains a chapter on "Guidelines for Customers" which will be helpful in customer education. Increased awareness of the customers leads to demanding better services. Failure to provide the desired level of services or deficiency in the services provided gives way to litigation. Banks spend a lot of time, energy and resources to defend themselves in cases filed by their customers. Hence, it is all the more necessary that banks equip themselves with updated knowledge of their customers'' rights and bankers'' obligations. The book has also covered, in detail decided cases in banking business, product by product. The book is written in a lucid style, which will be understood not only by the bankers and lawyers, but also by the customers.

God is omnipresent. He is an integral part of each speck, every being, living and non-living, in fact the entire creation. We, mortal beings, are not able to assimilate this indivisible, self-illuminative Divine form of the Lord as we are bound to a body. We only take as real what we can see, feel or touch, while the Lord God is an experience, a feel, love, lightthe very identity of each atom, that is, our awakened inner self. Human life has been assigned to us to discover and tread the path of salvation. This indeed is our true mission. To fructify the same, to wake us from the deep sleep of Maya, to make us tread the path of spirituality, God binds Himself to a body and appears on earth as an incarnation hence introducing us mortals to His omnipresence. The leelas performed by the incarnation of God, nurture humanity, show us our true face as human beings, introducing the soul within to the Super Soul. The hidden reality of this entire creation is concealed in these simple leelas, the so-called deeds of the incarnation, each word spoken by this Godly form. This book is a small effort to focus on some such deeper messages of the Lord. The task is entirely undertaken by the Lord Himself; this body is merely a means to obey and execute His commands.

This book introduces us to his life story which is equally as fascinating as that of other who make a political virtue of their humble origins. In Dr Choubey''s case, however, these humble origins have been transformed into the service of the nation in highly techno-managerial sector and in defence of the usually denigrated public sector that Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru had conceived as the bulwark of the nation''s industry and infrastructure. The "modern temples of India" were to be erected by the public sector. His systematic exposition of what he calls the "Untold Story" of our Public Sector Enterprises is, therefore, especially timely and, if taken seriously, could lead to that resurgence in PSEs which might yet pull us out of the current stagnation in manufacturing that is sucking into quicksand our hope of making our country prosperous and ensuring remunerative employment to the millions of young men and women who are joining the ranks of those seeking to contribute to the building of our modern nation. Even now, if this prescriptions are listed to, the public sector can re-emerge as a giant on its own, competing with the private sector and yet serving larger national goals than merely propping up the bottom-line of a balance sheet.
