Shaping the Future of Work
The future of work will largely be shaped by demographics and technology. Essentially, how we work determines who gets to work. The more flexibility that exists, both in timing and workspaces, the more people can join the workforce. In this regard, policymakers, employers and industry bodies need to come together and create a new ecosystem to foster tech-enabled work models across the country.
This book not only addresses the challenges of building an inclusive human capital framework for India but also highlights some unconventional ideas around work and models of employment which can create this much-needed inclusion. It is imperative that we adapt and shape the future of work possibilities around flexibility. By doing so, we can considerably address India’s jobs and employment challenges.
Who Is Equal
In 1950, we, the people of India, gave ourselves a constitution that promised justice, liberty and equality to all its citizens. Decades later, as a nation, we still struggle with inequality in various forms—religion, sex, caste, gender. As we forge ahead, it is imperative to ask, ‘who is equal?’, and ‘is the idea of equality elusive to achieve?’
In his new book, Saurabh Kirpal, a senior Supreme Court lawyer, seeks to untangle the philosophical and practical tangents of inequality prevalent in our country. He presents to the readers the explanation and understanding of the existing laws and discusses theories that allow a close inspection of concerns over a spectrum. Well-researched, insightful and drawn from experience, Who is Equal?, positions India at the intersection of equality and inequality, and delivers a perspective that is retrospective and contemporary.
Yaarekh/यारेख
कहते हैं, प्रेम की परिभाषा सबकी अपनी-अपनी होती है और उसे गढ़ने में हरेक को अपने मनोभावों की माटी ही लगानी होती है। भाव से भाव बंधते जाते हैं और इस जुड़ाव को व्यक्त करने के लिए शब्दों को माध्यम ढूँढ़ने पड़ते हैं। और ये माध्यम कौन-से होंगे, यह बस प्रेम-उमड़ता मन ही जानता है कि उसे सुकून-शान्ति मिलेगी तो किससे, प्रेमपत्रों से या प्रेम-मनुहार पगे शब्द-सेतुओं से।
यह किताब छत्तीस ऐसे पत्रों का संकलन है जिनमें प्रेम है, आसक्ति है, और है रोम-रोम को झुलसाता प्रेम-पीड़ा का गान, वो भी असग़र वजाहत, अनामिका, नन्द भारद्वाज, सविता सिंह-पंकज सिंह, मैत्रेयी पुष्पा, हुज़ैफा पंडित, वंदना टेटे, के सच्चिदानंदन, जयंती रंगनाथन, गीताश्री, उषाकिरण खान, आलोक धन्वा . . . जैसे हिन्दी साहित्य जगत के कुछ चुनिन्दा सृजनकारों की कलम से लिखे और उनके शब्दों से जगमगाते!
क्या पता, यह संकलन प्रेम करने के लिए तत्पर कर दे और इन पत्रों से प्रेरित हो आप एक नया अध्याय प्रेमपत्रों का लिखने लग जाएँ क्योंकि प्रेमपत्र सिर्फ़ शब्द नहीं होते, जीजिविषा होती है स्वयं को उन्मुक्त करने की, व्यक्त करने की।
Tilak
Bal Gangadhar Tilak was considered to be the biggest threat to the British hegemony.
He was prosecuted thrice for sedition.
Was termed ‘the father of Indian unrest.’
He was convicted for his fiery writings in his nationalist daily Kesari.
Tilak, the first definitive biography of the man who raised the slogan that ‘freedom is my birthright and I shall have it.’
Before Mahatma Gandhi, there was Bal Gangadhar Tilak – the revolutionary who ignited the spark of Indian nationalism. The Times, London, called him ‘the father of Indian unrest,’ and the one-time Secretary of State for India Edward Montagu felt he had ‘the greatest influence of any person’ on the Indian people. Above all, for the British Raj, Tilak was sedition-monger-in-chief, and it prosecuted him thrice for sedition.
Hailed as ‘Lokmanya’ or ‘One Revered by the People,’ Tilak transformed India’s fight for freedom from polite discourse to a mass uprising. His fierce writings, relentless activism, and controversial stances earned him the title ‘enemy of the British government’ from the Raj, which saw him as its greatest threat. And at a time the British were undermining Indian self-esteem and dismissing Indians as ‘uncivilized heathens,’ Tilak argued powerfully and relentlessly that there was much of enormous value in India’s past, its culture, heritage and civilization, awakening Indians to a sense of their own identity. This definitive biography traces Tilak’s journey from his early days in Konkan to his influential role across India, highlighting his battles against the British, imprisonments, and commitment to Swaraj.
Rediscover an icon of Indian history whose ideas and actions continue to resonate today. Bal Gangadhar Tilak’s story is not just a tale of resistance but a testament to perseverance and conviction.
