    H-Asia Ganguly on Das Gupta, 'The Indian Civil Service and Indian Foreign Policy, 1923–1961' Review published on Saturday, June 19, 2021 Amit Das Gupta. The Indian Civil Service and Indian Foreign Policy, 1923–1961. Abingdon, Oxon: Routledge, 2021. xvi + 314 pp. $160.00 (cloth), ISBN 978-1-138-06424-9. Reviewed by Sumit Ganguly (Indiana University) Published on H-Asia (June, 2021) Commissioned by Sumit Guha (The University of Texas at Austin) Printable Version: https://www.h-net.org/reviews/showpdf.php?id=56532 There has long been a voluminous literature on India’s postindependence foreign policy. However, at least three recent developments have significantly leavened the scholarship on the subject. First, within the past decade, the Government of India has declassified significant numbers of documents pertaining to foreign policy decision-making and have placed them in the National Archives in New Delhi. Second, as a consequence, a number of able, young, and enterprising scholars have made deft use of these newly accessible documents. Their work has led to some reinterpretation of key events and turning points and have also provided more granular accounts of foreign policy decision-making at critical junctures. Finally, there has also been an effort on the part of a number of younger scholars to go beyond descriptive accounts of Indian decision-making. To that end, they have applied theoretical concepts and frameworks to the study of Indian foreign policy. These forays have started an incipient process of bringing the study of Indian foreign policy into the mainstream of foreign policy analysis. Owing to these three advances, the study of Indian foreign policy is undergoing a significant renewal.

  • Download Caruna Report
    The Civil Services have risen to the summon of the Nation, echoed by the clarion call of the Hon’ble Prime Minister to build a silo-less culture of service. The creation of the unique collective-CARUNA, the Civil Services Associations Reach to Support in Natural Disasters is the embodiment of this new work culture, where transcending narrow service loyalties and surmounting a culture of seniority, this platform has evolved to be the first Flat Organization in recent civil service memory. The CARUNA Team representing 29 services of the Union of India is a befitting response to Sardar Patel’s advice when he said “you must cultivate an ‘esprit de corps’ without which a Service as such has little meaning”. The founder of modern civil services in India, Sardar Patel, invoked the spirit of sacrifice amongst civil servants by exhorting them … ‘not only will you be the administrators of areas allotted to you, but you will also be the servants of people’. The numerous activities of our CARUNA warriors, their help to citizens on ground, their assistance to colleagues battling the COVID-19 pandemic and their creative administrative solutions are a humble tribute at his great feet. The transformation of Civil Services into a virtuous weapon of high-minded devotion at this perilous hour, is a resolute rededication on the CIVIL SERVICES DAY, 21st April, 2020. We, the members of the Civil Services of India humbly place this document of service done during the past 21 days combatting the COVID-19 situation, at the altar of our true masters- the Citizens of India.
