Annual Subscription India Rs. 400 Foreign US$ 10 Published by : SOFTRAIN, Lal Bahadur Shastri National Academy of Administration, Mussoorie (Uttaranchal) and Printed in India at Print Vision, Dehradun-248 001 FOREWORD iii Foreword We have in our hands the second issue of the "Administrator" for the year 2001. This has been a momentous year and has changed the course of the current history. It has in the process altered many perceptions, beliefs and the way we conduct our lives. The world is coming together as never before and new frontiers of collaboration as well as confrontation are opening up. No country can remain insulated form the happenings in the world around it. This throws open new challenges for administration-not just in ensuring the rule of law and maintaining internal security but also in ensuring equity, justice and fair play in governance. At the same time the increasing liberalization and opening up of the economy has placed greater onus on the administrators to ensure the well being of the marginalized. This, in effect means a greater emphasis on system building and sustenance, ensuring that the services, schemes and programmes meant for the poor reach them in the same manner as they are intended to, and that the rent seekers do not frustrate the objectives of the "safety nets" for the poor. In the current scenario, administrators need to handle issues with greater sensitivity than before. Intelligence quotient or IQ now had to be seen in conjunction with EQ or emotional intelligence. This is brought out in the article by Dr. Dalip Singh. In a similar vein is the article entitled “Our composite culture and the IAS” by Sh. G.S. Cheema which calls for a greater appreciation of all religions. “Has something gone wrong with the IAS "also asks and answers questions that pertain to governance by the IAS. The issues of district level administration are further addressed in the article by Prof. S. Maheshwari entitled “The District Magistrate and Police”. The article by Dr Y.S.Chaturvedi also addresses the concerns regarding the interface between officials and non officials and lays down certain prescriptions for the same. A SWOT analysis of the participatory forest management programme is given in the article by Sh Alind Rastogi. The experiment conducted in Haryana to ensure attendance in the gram sabhas is reported by Dr CS Singhal in his article. The "Administrator" would like to be a forum for highlighting "best practices", which whether as a result of government or non governmental iv FOREWORD initiative, have demonstrated their sustainability. In this issue, we have the story of a village in Gujarat that has shown the way. Dr Medha Dubashi gives us a glimpse of the working of women's cooperatives that came about as a result of non governmental action. Some macro issues of administration are addressed in the article by Dr Pratima Kapoor entitled “Ethics in Services” Dr. KB Rai's article highlights the initiative of the Delhi Govt. in cutting down the levels of file clearance. The functioning of the child adoption mechanism in India and suggestions for it's improvement are given in the article by MP Vijaykumar and Supriya Sahu. The other articles in the volume as well as the book reviews present a diverse and kaliedoscopic view of the issues pertaining to the civil service. We solicit articles and book review from our readers. Your views and analysis make the "Administrator" relevant and contextual. Kindly send in your articles at the e-mail address mentioned below.

S. 1 The Administrator Vol. XLIV, December, 2001, pp. 1-10 Our Composite Culture and The I. A. S. ........... G. S. Cheema* The Argument: Although appointments to the IAS are made after a highly competitive countrywide examination and the officers are supposed to be the cream of Indian youth, not many of them (in the viewpoint of the author) really share the supposed values of our much talked about Composite Culture. Very few have more than the most cursory acquaintance with religious groups and communities other than their own, and what is more disturbing, most of them are singularly incurious and lack any strong desire to acquire knowledge of this kind. Since IAS officers are expected to administer people, at least during their field postings, this relative ignorance on their part makes the encounters between officialdom and the public frequently awkward, embarrassing and prone to misunderstandings. This is further aggravated by the fact that at least half the members of the service in any state cadre are expected to be from outside the state. The situation is really not very different from colonial times and most of the officers remain 'outsiders' to the state all their lives. But while the foreign- born ICS officer was at least expected to acquaint himself thoroughly with the territory and people he was expected to administer, there is very little emphasis on acquiring this kind of knowledge today. The officers are expected to 'know', their knowledge is presupposed, after all they are Indians. But unfortunately their knowledge is usually very shallow. The author feels that there is an urgent need to remedy this state of affairs. A working knowledge of the local language is not enough. But at present that is about all that is considered necessary. The composite culture and the IAS The other day I had gone to attend a conference in a certain State capital. The city was noted for the archaeological monuments in its neighbourhood and for those of us who had not seen them before a short tour was arranged. Among the various monuments on the itinerary was a mosque. Typical of a * The author is from the Punjab cadre of the IAS and belongs to the 1972 batch. He has held many important posts under the State Government. Currently he is the Executive Director of the state ATI, namely, the Mahatma Gandhi State Institute of Public Administration, Punjab, located at Chandigarh. His principal interests are literature, history and ethnography. His book on the later Mughals is cur- rently in the press. 2 THE ADMINISTRATOR, VOL. XLIV, DECEMBER, 2001 certain period, it had been built on the site of a former temple. The superstructure had been demolished, and after the base had been suitably widened, a mosque had been erected, pointing in the appropriate direction. An unremarkable structure, without dome or minarets; only a shallow verandah like hall with a simple qibla pointing towards Mecca and a stepped mimbar from where the imam delivered his sermon. The pillars were all carved, each in its own unique design, recalling the Quwwat ul Islam mosque of the Qutb and the Arhai Din ka Jhonpra at Ajmer, though far less impressive. It had been recommended by our host (needless to say, a very senior IAS officer) with the explanation that, although not very beautiful, 'it had undeniably been built on the base of a former temple, and particularly noteworthy because so much of the temple had survived.' Doubtless he was alluding to another temple/mosque in a far off city in U.P., which had been the occasion of so much controversy and bloodshed in the not too distant past.

    1 The Environmental and Consumer Movements TEKS 11(B), 24(B) 2 Listen • The 1960s and 1970s also saw the birth of the environmental and consumer protection movements. Environmental movements demanded preservation and restoration of Earth’s environment. Inspired by Rachel Carson’s book Silent Spring, condemning the chemicals that were poisoning the environment, groups organized around the country. Activists protested pollution and toxic wastes. The government responded to environmentalists’ fears over possible nuclear accidents by establishing the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) in 1974 to oversee the safety of nuclear power plants. 3 Listen • As concerns about environmental damage grew among the public, the government also established the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to set national antipollution standards. The EPA enforced these standards through the Clean Air Act and the Clean Water Act, which controlled air and water pollution by industries. Because of concerns of business that new regulations would cost them too much and cause loss of jobs, the government tried to balance the demands of economic development and environmental protection. 4 Listen • The consumer movement demanded safety for consumers and workers. It had roots in early-20th- century efforts, such as those of the muckrakers, to protect the public. But in the 1960s and 1970s the movement grew larger and stronger.

Opinion differs widely upon many of the issues raised, and upon the best way of dealing with them. But there will be no unwillingness in any quarter to admit that in the months to come the future of India will present to the people of this country the most difficult task in practical statesmanship with which thet 1hive ever been confronted. If the decision is to be a wise one it must rest upon a sound conception of the problem itself, and in that problem the place that is to be taken in the new India by the Indian States is an essential factor. Should they join the rest of India in a Federation ? Would they bring strength to a Federal Government, or weakness? Are their interests compatible with adhesion to an All-India v Vl INTRODUCTION Federation? What should be the range of the Federal Government's jurisdiction over them? These are some of the questions upon which keen debate will shortly arise.

Received: February 18, 2019 Accepted: March 21, 2019 ABSTRACT: There is a common perception that British rule resulted in poverty, de industrialization etc in India. But as for as princely state of Jammu and Kashmir is concerned the British intervention resulted in positive outcomes. The British intervention resulted in modernization of various fields of Jammu and Kashmir. The introduction of modern education, land settlements ,modern health care, transportation etc. where the outcomes of British intervention. This paper highlights that British intervention resulted in modernization of Jammu and Kashmir not only in short run but in long run. Key Words: INTRODUCTION Once British became absolute political power in the Indian sub-continent, there policy towards princely states remained of two type’s i.e., direct and indirect policy. Direct policy was promoted towards the states which were directly ruled by British through their governors and indirect policy was conceded towards the states, ruled indirectly by British through their residents. The preference to bring a state under direct or indirect policy was mostly determined by state’s geography and economic resources. British annexed Punjab in 1846 and Kashmir being part of Lahore Darbar also came under the suzerainty of British. But at that time fate of Kashmir was determined by the need of time when British found sale of Kashmir inevitable because Punjab was yet to consolidate and North-West Frontier and Afghanistan unsettled.

A Tale of Two Movements: Consumer Protection in the U.S. from 1969 to 2010 Abstract The passage of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 and subsequent establishment of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau marked an unexpected victory for consumers across America at the expense of the well-financed business lobby. Although classical social scientists, such as Mancur Olson, claim that consumer movements should fail to emerge due to the difficulty of providing public goods for large constituencies, consumer victories – like the passage of Dodd-Frank— have occurred in waves throughout the last century. In conducting this study, I thus sought to answer why it is that some consumer movements are able to push through consumer legislation while others fail. In order to answer this question, I conducted two cases studies, comparing Ralph Nader’s failed attempt to establish a Consumer Protection Agency in the 1970s with Elizabeth Warren’s successful push to create Consumer Financial Protection Bureau in 2010.

    Lightfoot, E. B. (2019). Consumer Activism for Social Change. Social Work, 64(4), 301-309. Consumer Activism for Social Change Abstract Consumer activism, or activism through participating in the market such as through boycotts or ethical shopping, is the most common form of political action in the United States aside from voting. While consumer activism was a popular macro practice social work intervention by social work pioneers and has been an important part of many social change movements, it is rarely discussed formally in the field of social work today. This article provides an overview of consumer activism as a social work intervention, describes historical and twenty-first century examples of consumer activism, discusses the effectiveness of consumer activism, and discusses the strengths and challenges of consumer activism for social workers who engage in it either professionally or personally. This is the unedited Author’s Copy. The published article is: Lightfoot, E. B. (2019). Consumer Activism for Social Change. Social Work, 64(4), 301-309. Lightfoot, E. B. (2019). Consumer Activism for Social Change. Social Work, 64(4), 301-309. Consumer activism is activism taken by consumers through participating in the market. This can involve activities such as choosing to shop for only fair-trade products or boycotting a company because of its labor practices. Consumer activism has a long history in the United States (US), and more than half of US citizens have participated in a form of consumer activism in their lives, with more than a third participating in the past year (Keeter, Zukin, Zndolina & Jenkins, 2002). Aside from voting, consumer activism is the most common way that citizens engage in political participation and is far more common than other types of political engagement, such as contacting legislators, fundraising for charity, taking part in a protest or volunteering for a candidate.

BAYLY Vere Harmsworth Professor of Imperial and Naval History, University of Cambridge, and Fellow of St Catharine's College and JOHN F. RICHARDS Professor of History, Duke University Although the original Cambridge History of India, published between 1922. and 1937, did much to formulate a chronology for Indian history and de- scribe the administrative structures of government in India, it has inevitably been overtaken by the mass of new research published over the last fifty years. Designed to take full account of recent scholarship and changing concep- tions of South Asia's historical development, The New Cambridge History of India will be published as a series of short, self-contained volumes, each dealing with a separate theme and written by a single person. Within an overall four-part structure, thirty-one complementary volumes in uniform format will be published. As before, each will conclude with a substantial bib- liographical essay designed to lead non-specialists further into the literature. The four parts planned are as follows: I The Mughals and their contemporaries II Indian states and the transition to colonialism III The Indian Empire and the beginnings of modern society IV The evolution of contemporary South Asia A list of individual titles in preparation will be found at the end of the volume.
