The book past, Present and Future of Kashmir deals in detail with the problem of the State of Jammu and Kashmir. Beginning with the political history of the state in ancient times it presents a chronology of Kashmiri rulers - Hindus, Muslims and the British respectively. When India was to become independent it was ruled by a Hindu King who failed in either way to decide the fate of the territory like other princely states of India. As a result of the mini war between India and Pakistan a portion of it was held by the latter and is known as Azad Kashmir. In post-independence phase it continues to be a contentious issue between the two neighbours and caused four devastating wars over it. Pakistan has complaints over its accession to the Union of India because at the time, public at large, were no consulted. The very composition of Pakistani society and political system as well witnessed a sea change towards the direction opposite to India. In recent year the two have realised the futility of third party began to look forward for better bilateral understanding to great rid of this vexed problem.

This book opens a door to the wonderful art and culture Jammu Region. It introduces great Pahari painters with an intention to pinpoint as to how they used to live and work, what they conceived, experienced and invented during those social conditions when it was difficult to attain perfection. The study uncovers some of the secrets of that society and of individual, how and when great art is created by the men of genius. This book has tried to depict peripherial areas of art, i.e., paintings, dresses, ornaments, hairstyles, art of living in society, music and dance etc, with the hope that no absolute rules and regulation can be framed for good or bad in the history of art and culture.

19491247721949. New Delhi: February 1949. <br /> <br /> Printed invitation on a letterhead sheet with typewritten additions approximately 10 x 15 cm. Printed dinner seating plan on letterhead sheet approximately 12 x 19 cm. In fine condition attractively framed together. Frame measures 32 x 27 cm. Not examined out of frame. Original mailing envelope for the invitation is affixed to the back of the frame in a plastic sleeve. <br /> <br /> § Carefully preserved mementos of a large formal dinner held by Jawaharlal Nehru Prime Minister India belonging to one of the guests Mr Franklin Holley a member of the United States Foreign Service. The dinner took place a year and a half after the partition of India at a time when India was still a dominion in the British Commonwealth of Nations and the United Nations was engaged in an ill-fated attempt to mediate the dispute between India and Pakistan over Kashmir.<br /> <br /> Thirty guests are named on the seating plan; a spread of nationalities and an almost even mix of men and women. The identity of Mr Holley has proved elusive but it is clear that many of the others present were closely involved in the question of Kashmir including the Prime Minster of Jammu and Kashmir Sheikh Mohammad Abdullah Deputy Prime Minister Ghulam Mohammad Baskshi and former Prime Minister N. Gopaliswami Ayyangar then Nehru's Minister of Transport. Also present were members of the United Nations Commission for India and Pakistan: Erik Colban Norway Dr. Alfredo Lozano Colombia Carlos Alberto Leguizamon Argentina Harry Graeffe Belgium and the Americans J. Klahr Huddle and Robert Van de Kherchove.<br /> <br /> Other guests included Ward P. Allen advisor to the United States delegation to the United Nations Robert Macatee former US Consul General in Jerusalem and a 19 year old Lady Pamela Mountbatten.<br /> <br /> The reason for Mr Franklin Holley's presence at this illustrious gathering is so far a mystery. The only small trace of him we have found is a short news item in the April 1950 issue of The Foreign Service Journal: "Last year Franklin Holley FSS Foreign Service Specialist contracted polio while stationed in New Delhi India. He was replaced be Miss Cleo B. Hall. Now fully recovered Mr. Holley has been assigned to Madras India. He replaces his former replacement Miss Cleo B. Hall! unknown

This book deals with the demographic and social transformation in the state of Jammu and Kashmir after 1947. While demographic transformation in the state reflects the changes in population aggregates, size and composition and other aspects, different trends of migration such as 'the migration of Pandits' and 'labourmigration' represent the process. On the other hand, the related social transformation reveals the overall social structure, function and social relationships and emerging social problems. Dealing with the major and minor trends of migration in J&K, which had solid social repercussions for the whole society, it examines the patters of population change as was revealed in decadal census reports from 1951 – 2011. This is primarily a sociological presentation of census-based population changes. Finally, it analyzes the broader sociological implications of population changes and migration trends. The important areas in this regard have been identified as late marriage, increasing suicides, rising number of never married, increasing crime and domestic violence, Pandit migration and labour migration.

Ladakh is a remote area in the western Himalayan region. In spite of the huge mountain ranges, Ladakh had developed into an active and important religious, cultural and commercial relation with many areas including Buddhist Tibet. Ladakh along with Sikkhim, Bhutan and Mustang in the Himalaya continuous to be practiced Tibetan Buddhism as a living religion, as it has been for thousands years. This study traces the deep historical relationship between Ladakh and Buddhist Tibet. I have used the term Buddhist Tibet to indicate the time period that is before Chinese occupy Tibet. I would like to express my gratitude for the assistance I have received from various people and institutions researching and writing this book. This book have mainly grown out of a dissertation that I wrote at Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU), New Delhi. Few articles that I have already published are also included in the book. I have also used some data that I have collected for the undergoing research project at Richen Shah Center for West Himalayan Cultures at Islamic University of Science and Technology, (IUST) Awantipora, Kashmir.
