  • Shahjahanabad (Old Delhi)
    India Habitat Centre Habitat Library & Resource Centre IHC Walk: Dec 13, 2014, 3:00 pm Shahjahanabad (Old Delhi) Shahjahanabad Delhi went into something of an eclipse from the time of Humayun's Delhi to the accession of Shahjahan, the great Mughal builder who in 1648 built Shahjahanabad, the seventh city of Delhi. Shahjahan's Delhi, is today more visible than all the Delhi's built before it. The scale on which he built was also more heroic, as can be seen from the Red Fort and the Jama Masjid. Habitat Library & Resource Centre Page 1 The magnificence of the palace (Red Fort - World Heritage Monument at present) is best described in the famous couplet inscribed in the Diwan-i-Khas: Agar fardos ba rue Zamin ast Hamin ast a hamin ast a hamin ast. If paradise be on the face of the earth, it is this, even this, it is this The celebrated poet Mirza Galib, maintained the same fervour and wrote: "If the world is body, Delhi is the soul". There can be no better attributes for a city. Shahjahanabad was a walled city, and some of its gates and parts of the wall still stand. The romance of the bazaars of Delhi can be experienced at its best in and around Chandni Chowk and its by lanes. Shahjahanabad was secured and enclosed by about ten kilometer long well. Ten gates connected the city with the surrounding region. Lahore gate was the main entrance for the Red Port besides Delhi Gate. The Kashmere Gate, Calcutta Gate, Mori Gate, Kabul Gate, Faresh Khana Gate, Ajmere Gate and the Turkman Gate were the other major links of the city with the highways.

  • Additional Comments on Forging Environmentalism: “Forging
    Additional comments on Forging Environmentalism: “Forging Environmentalism takes up cutting-edge questions from the ‘greening’ of China to environmental justice to questions of good governance in the environmental realm and helps readers see the complexity and urgency of the underlying issues.” —DAN ESTY, Yale University “The comparative study of values is as difficult as it is essential. Forging Environmentalism is a feast for everyone attracted to this necessary project, and required reading for all those who want to understand the complex values driving environmental degradation in Asia and the United States.” —DALE JAMIESON, New York University “This remarkable study compares environmental values, local mobi- lization and policy, via case studies from diverse countries. It does so by close observation in communities, by in-depth interviews, and by tracking environmental mobilization on the ground. These rich studies will be insightful to the environmental scholar and this book should become a unique resource for graduate seminars on the global environmental movement.” —WILLETT KEMPTON, Coauthor, Environmental Values in American Culture The Carnegie Council for Ethics in International Affairs is the world’s leading voice promoting ethical leadership on issues of war, peace and global social justice.

  • Book Review: a Book That Goes on a Quest of Indraprastha's Legacy
    Book Review: A book that goes on a quest of Indraprastha’s legacy By Come Carpentier de Gourdon | | 23 December, 2017 Indraprastha Revisited is a well illustrated, highly readable compendium of information on almost all aspects of Indraprastha’s legacy, and provides a wealth of information on many aspects of the city’s history, from its remote origins until the recent past. Indraprastha Revisited Edited by Neera Misra and Rajesh Lall Published by B.R. Publishing Corporation Since the days of the Mahabharata, Indraprastha, the seat of the Pandavas has frequently been evoked in literature, art, history and mythology. An international seminar held at the National Museum by the Draupadi Foundation as part of the 1st Indraprastha festival in November 2016, was dedicated to the exploration of the archaeological, cultural and religious legacy of that ancient city on whose site a long succession of dynasties, from the Chandravanshis to the Mughals and British, established their headquarters along many centuries before it was retained as the capital of newly independent India in 1947. The volume containing the papers presented at the conference is a well illustrated, highly readable compendium of information on almost all aspects of Indraprastha’s legacy. It brings together the findings and conclusions of renowned archaeologists such as B.B. Lal, Vishnu Kant and B.R. Mani, the results of archaeo-astronomical computations by the likes of A.K. Bhatnagar, B.N. Achar and Koenraad Elst, geographical and ethnographic studies of the area comprised between the Yamuna and the Saraswati and chronological interpretations of Puranic and other ancient but imprecise or fanciful dynastic nomenclatures by various historians as well as speculative and artistic reconstructions of the Pandava city inspired by the descriptions contained in the epic.

But I have tried, and I should like you to try to consider these questions as a scientist impartially examining facts, and not as a nationalist out to prove one side of the case. Nationalism is good in its place, but it is an unreliablev friend and vanvunsafe vhistorian. (Jawaharlal Nehru, 14 December 1932).1 In the aftermath of the pogrom against the Sikhs in Delhi (1984), in which 2500 people perished in a few days, reports filled the capital of the assail- ants and their motives. It was clear from the very first that this was no disorganized ‘riot’ and that the organized violence visited upon Sikhs was engineered by the Congress (I) to avenge the assassination of Indira Gandhi. Of the assailants, we only heard rumours, that they came from the outskirts of the city, from those ‘urban villages’ inhabited by Jats and Gujjars as well as dalits (untouchables) resettled there during the Na- tional Emergency (1975–7).
