‘Goyal was not merely witness to history but an active participant in its making.’ —Arun Jaitley During the nearly seventy-two years since Independence, India has deviated from democratic life only once—during the twenty-one months of Indira Gandhi’s Emergency. Saving India from Indira describes the events leading up to, and during the darkest days of, democratic India, as they actually unfolded. Recounted by J.P. Goyal, a key lawyer for Raj Narain in the famous election case against Mrs Gandhi that led to the imposition of the so-called National Emergency on 25 June 1975 at the behest of then prime minister Indira Gandhi, this no-holdsbarred account of a crucial insider describes the twists and turns in this case in the Allahabad High Court and the Supreme Court of India. It gives a blow-by-blow account of the battle that Goyal, along with a battery of lawyers, waged in the Supreme Court to defend the Constitution of India against the amendments that could alter its basic structure. This gripping narrative includes an account of Goyal’s meetings with political leaders in jail, including Jayaprakash Narayan and Raj Narain, and reveals many hitherto unknown facts that Goyal was privy to. Saving India from Indira is a sharp memoir of one of those few who fought against the misdeeds of the dark era and recorded events for posterity.

अन्य उपासना-मतों में, विशेषकर इस्लाम एवं ईसाइयत में मतान्तरित हिन्दुओं का अपने मूल धर्म और समाज में वापस आने की प्रक्रिया ‘घरवापसी’ नाम से लोकप्रिय हुई है। इस प्रक्रिया को ‘शुद्धि’ या “परावर्तन’ भी कहा जाता है। भारत में रहने वाले अधिकांश मुस्लिमों और ईसाइयों के पूर्वज हिन्दू ही थे। किसी समय भय या धोखे से उन्हें मतान्तरित किया गया था। भारत के वर्तमान मुस्लिम और ईसाई इतिहासकाल में बिछुड़े हुए अपने ही बंधुओं की संतान है। मतान्तरण यह दासता का आविष्कार है।
मतान्तरित व्यक्ति और समाज उस इतिहासकालीन दासता के अवशेष हैं। मतान्तरित बंधुओं को स्वगृह में लाने और उन्हें मातृसमाज में आत्मसात करने का प्रयास इस्लामी आक्रमण के तुरंत बाद शुरू हुआ। अपने ऋषि मनीषियों ने इस प्रक्रिया को धर्मशास्त्र का आधार दिया।
अपने बिछुड़े हुए बंधुओं को आत्मसात करने के प्रयास ऋषियों, साधु-संतों, राजा महाराजाओं, धार्मिक-सामाजिक-राजनीतिक नेताओं और सामान्य लोगों ने किए। सन् 1947 को राजनीतिक स्वतंत्रता प्राप्ति भारत के इतिहास में महत्त्वपूर्ण पड़ाव था। सैकड़ों वर्षों के इस कालावधि में हुए शुद्धिकरण के प्रयासों की तथ्यपरक जानकारी इस पुस्तक में संक्षेप में दी गई है।

‘शूद्र कौन थे’ पुस्तक की रचना डॉ. ऑम्बेडकर जी ने अंग्रेज इतिहासकारों द्वारा लिखे गये भारत के झूठे इतिहास और प्रंपचों के विरुद्ध की थी। पुस्तक में उन्होंने ‘शूद्र निम्न नहीं थे, मीनियल नहीं थे,’ यह प्रमाणित करने की कोशिश की है। इस पुस्तक में वस्तुत: उनको, उनको उन झूठे अंग्रेज इतिहासकारों को निशाने पर लेना था, जिन्होंने आर्यन, इन्डो आर्यन और एबॉरिजिन्स (मूल निवासी) जैसी झूठी और आधारहीन परिकल्पनाओं की रचना की, न कि ब्राह्मणों और उनके द्वारा रचित ग्रंथों को दोषी प्रमाणित करने का कार्य करना चाहिए था, जिसके कारण आज सामाजिक और राष्ट्रीय एकता की सुरक्षा को खतरा पैदा हो रहा है।

Snakes in the Ganga: Breaking India 2.0
Snakes in the Ganga unveils uncomfortable truths concerning India’s vulnerabilities: Intense warfare against India’s integrity is the work of a well-orchestrated global machinery driven by a new ideology. Marxism has been reincarnated as Critical Race Theory in US academia and serves as the framework to address America’s racism. This has been recklessly mapped on to India:Caste is equated with Race. Marginalized communities of India are considered as Blacks and Brahmins as the Whites of India. Groups claiming grievances (like Muslims and LGBTQ+) are artificially clubbed together. Popularly called the Woke movement, the mission is to dismantle Indian civilization and heritage by waging an uncompromising war against India’s government, educational institutions, culture, industry, and society. Harvard University is Ground Zero of these social theories developed in collaboration with Indian scholars, activists, journalists and artists. This represents a clear and present danger to India’s sovereignty and national security. Several Indian elites are hoisting Harvard as the vishwa guru with their money and family names. Some private universities within India are importing Wokeism that has serious repercussions for India’s stability. Indian corporates are bringing the latest Western rubric of Environmental, Social, and Governance ratings into their workplace. This is aligned with the global Social Justice movement. China has exploited this latest infrastructure as a passage to India. Wokeism has penetrated some of the Indian government’s policies. For instance, the National Education Policy 2020 is propagating Harvard’s liberal arts. An entire ecosystem of ideologies, institutions and young leaders is emerging for the recolonization of India.

The Babri Masjid built on the site of the Rama-Janmabhumi at Ayodhya is verily the tip of an iceberg which remains submerged in the hundreds of histories written by Muslim historians, in Hindu literary sources which are slowly coming to light, in the accounts of foreign travelers who visited India and the neighboring lands during medieval and modern times, and above all in the reports of the archaeological surveys carried out in all those countries which had been for long the cradles of Hindu culture.

इस पुस्तक में अयोध्या विवाद की सुप्रीम कोर्ट में 40 दिनों तक चली मैराथन सुनवाई और कोर्ट के ऐतिहासिक फैसले के हर बारीक-से-बारीक पहलुओं का वर्णन किया गया है। 40 दिन की सुनवाई में किस दिन किस पक्षकार ने क्या दलीलें दीं? उनके क्या जवाब दिए गए और कोर्ट के किस-किस जज ने सुनवाई के दौरान क्या टिप्पणी की? अयोध्या विवाद की 40 दिन की सुनवाई में अखबारों की सुर्खियाँ केवल गिनी-चुनी कोर्ट की टिप्पणियाँ और दलीलें ही बनी थीं, जबकि कोर्ट की सुनवाई में उनसे इतर भी बहुत कुछ घटित हुआ था। अखबारों व टी.वी. चैनलों की खबरों में इन जानकारियों का अभाव रहता है कि दिन भर चली सुनवाई में खास टिप्पणियों के अलावा क्या कुछ हुआ। बहुत से लोग ये जानना चाहते हैं कि अयोध्या विवाद की दिन भर की सुनवाई में पूरे दिन क्या-क्या हुआ? इनके जवाब आपको इस पुस्तक के माध्यम से मिलेंगे।
पुस्तक में अयोध्या विवाद का संक्षिप्त वर्णन, इलाहाबाद हाइकोर्ट का फैसला किन प्रमुख आधारों पर दिया गया था, इसकी जानकारी भी दी गई है। फिर यह विवाद सुप्रीम कोर्ट पहुँचा और 8 साल तक लंबित रहा। सुप्रीम कोर्ट ने मध्यस्थता से विवाद को सुलझाने के दो प्रयास किए और दोनों ही विफल रहे।
आखिर कैसे तीन हिस्सों में विभाजित जमीन के मालिक रामलला साबित हुए। इस सवाल का जवाब भी आपको इस पुस्तक में मिलेगा। पुस्तक के अंत में सुप्रीम कोर्ट के ऐतिहासिक फैसले में बेनामी राय देनेवाले जज के 116 पेज के अडेंडम को विस्तार दिया गया है, जिसमें एक जज ने बिना अपना नाम बताए तथ्यों के आधार पर बताया है कि विवादित स्थल ही भगवान् राम का जन्मस्थल है। इन सभी सुनी-अनसुनी जानकारियों के साथ इस पुस्तक को तैयार किया गया है।
“इस अदालत को एक ऐसे विवाद का समाधान करने का कार्य सौंपा गया था, जिसकी जड़ें उतनी ही पुरानी थीं जितना पुराना भारत का विचार है। इस विवाद के घटनाक्रम मुगल साम्राज्य से लेकर मौजूदा संवैधानिक शासन तक फैले हैं।”
“ऐतिहासिक निर्णय का अंतिम वाक्य—
निष्कर्ष यह है कि मस्जिद बनने से पहले भी हिंदुओं की आस्था यही थी कि भगवान् राम का जन्मस्थान वही है, जहाँ बाबरी मस्जिद थी और इस आस्था की पुष्टि दस्तावेजों और मौखिक गवाही से हो चुकी है।”SKU: n/a -

“हर व्यक्ति सफलता प्राप्त करना चाहता है, स्वयं को उत्कृष्टता के शिखर पर देखना चाहता है। मगर उत्कृष्टता के पर्वत पर पहुँचने के लिए एक-एक कदम उत्कृष्टता के साथ ही रखना पड़ता है । अगर लापरवाही से कदम बढ़ाया जाए तो फिसलने व गिरने का डर बना रहता है। उत्कृष्टता के शिखर तक पहुँचने के लिए अनिवार्य है कि पीछे छोड़नेवाले हर कदम को सर्वोत्तम बनाया जाए, ताकि वह न केवल दूसरों को मार्ग दिखा सके, बल्कि पीछे निशान भी छोड़ सके। उत्कृष्टता सदैव सकारात्मक परिणाम देती है।
तेनालीराम एक ऐसे व्यक्ति थे, जो हर छोटे-बड़े काम को अपनी बुद्धि के साथ करते थे और कभी भी पीछे नहीं हटते थे। ज्ञान के चक्षु खोलने का कार्य शिक्षा करती है। तेनालीराम शिक्षित थे। उनकी शिक्षा ने भी उनके ज्ञान को बढ़ाया, जिस कारण वे हर कार्य को चतुराई से करके अपने शत्रुओं व प्रतिद्वंद्वियों को पछाड़ते रहे।
तेनालीराम केवल एक थे। उनके जैसा कोई नहीं बन सकता। मगर हाँ, उनकी कहानियों एवं उनके जीवन को जान कर कोई भी स्वयं को शिखर पर ले जा सकता है। हर आयु वर्ग के पाठकों के लिए ‘एक पठनीय पुस्तक ।”

-12%English Books, Occam (An Imprint of BluOne Ink), सही आख्यान (True narrative)The Battle for IITs: A Defense of Meritocracy
This book is part of a series that started with the flagship Snakes in the Ganga: Breaking India 2.0 in September 2022. The present volume focuses on the American project led by Harvard University to dismantle the Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) and other institutions of excellence in India, by claiming that they propagate structural casteism. While it is beyond the scope of this book to discuss in detail Marxism, Postmodernism and other European intellectual movements of the last 150 years, the fact is that these movements have influenced what has culminated in this current battle against the IITs. Simply put, we will show that: The IITs are under attack. There are legal implications of this attack. It has severe consequences for the IITs, its students and faculty, India, and engineering education. The consequences of this attack will follow the IIT engineer and other tech professionals to their workplace anywhere in the world. Harvard’s Woke machinery is behind this attack and we need to understand the sophistication that backs it. Our evidence-based rebuttal gives IITians and other engineers the toolkit to tackle false accusations of being casteist bigots. We end with a call to action by IITians and other stakeholders.

Akshaya Prakashan, राजनीति, पत्रकारिता और समाजशास्त्र, सही आख्यान (True narrative)The Citizenship Amendment Act, 2019 Some Reflections
India’s leaders – both political and intellectual have usually failed to anticipate the shape of things to come, and a society which refuses to learn from the past can not escape disaster. The victims of religio-ethnic cleansing from Pakistan, Bangladesh and Afghanistan have been seeking shelter in India for decades.
Originally, they belong to India. They are victims of history and for no fault of theirs. The state policies of these three countries from where the persecuted people flee to India have been brought under the scanner as never before. India’s troubled past over the millennium and religious demography provide the backdrop. Unfortunately, independent India’s ruling class ensured that its polity, educational system and the conduct of foreign affairs usually kept the world largely apathetic and insensitive to this tragedy for purely political considerations. Based on irrefutable evidence, hereis an analysis of all those historical forces, explaining the imperative necessity of the CAA 2019, which offers a solution as never before to our refugee problem.

-19%English Books, Garuda Prakashan, Suggested Books, इतिहास, राजनीति, पत्रकारिता और समाजशास्त्र, सही आख्यान (True narrative)The Girl from Kathua (HB)
On January 10, 2018, a little girl allegedly disappeared in Kathua district of Jammu province. Even before her body was recovered a week later, a sinister narrative was launched alleging that the girl was abducted, gang raped and killed by ‘RSS-minded’ Hindus in a Hindu temple. Talib Hussain, a PDP-Hurriyat activist with criminal antecedents led the campaign, in which Patwari Sanji Ram was declared as the ‘mastermind’.
Mehbooba Mufti, the then CM of J&K, deftly used this opportunity to arbitrarily arrest hundreds of young Hindus of Kathua district. Amid unprecedented protests by the Bar Association, several BJP leaders as well as leading citizens of Jammu, cutting across party lines, begged the PMO for a CBI investigation. But the demand was snubbed, and the fake narrative allowed to run amok.
Madhu Purnima Kishwar personally investigated the case over three years. With meticulously video-recorded interviews, extensive analysis of legal documents, financial transactions, and social media posts, she exposes how the Mufti government astutely used the mainstream media, foreign-funded NGOs and puppet academics to get the police and the judiciary to legally persecute innocent Hindus to further their subversive agenda of Land & Demographic Jihad in Jammu province.
Shockingly, leading journalists and ‘public intellectuals’ ignored even the post-mortem, which does not support rape charge to globally vilify Jammu Hindus and the Modi government. This book effectively blasts the fake narrative and exposes the masterminds behind it.

The Indian War Of Independence 1857 (PB)
Veer Savarkar was the first man who called the mutiny of 1857 ‘A War of Independence’. Until his time, no Indian had dared to say so. The martyrs of 1857 are really fortunate that they got such a historian to tell their history who himself was both a historian and a creator of history. At times, we visualise Veer Savarkar coloured in the red colour of that revolution, as if he himself was present on the battlefield and participated in the heroic war. At other times, we see him patiently analyse the strengths and weaknesses of both sides—why the mutineers lost and why the British won. The way he analyses the politico-military aspects of the revolution shows his wisdom as a youth of 26 years.
The Indian War of Independence, 1857, is a step by step account of the uprising of Indian Hindus and Muslims against the ruthless British rulers. Tracing footsteps of the barefooted, undernourished and almost unarmed Indian masses challenging the British bullets by the sheer force of their will power, the author establishes beyond an iota of doubt that the uprising was a War of Independence and not a mere Sepoy Mutiny as dubbed by the British.
Some glaring truths about this book:
• This book became the Bible for Indian revolutionaries.
• The book was proscribed by the British Government before its publication.
• The book was smuggled into India and England after it was published in Holland.
• The demand for this book was so enormous that it used to be sold and resold at the stupendous price of Rs. 300 (in 1910).SKU: n/a -

In today’s troubles lie the seeds of tomorrow’s stories. Air Commodore Nitin Sathe, drawing from his extensive service in the Indian Air Force, reflects on how the trials, triumphs, and moments of joy that once consumed him have now become the raw material for his narratives. His stories vividly portray life in the armed forces – from the thrill of combat to the rigours of training, the turmoil of warfare, the solitude of distant outposts, and the joy of leisure. Meanwhile, Dr Suneet Madan skillfully weaves her poetic magic around the central theme of each narrative, creating a unique and thoughtful read. These narratives, told with lightness and brevity, provide an intimate glimpse into the fauji life and will linger in your thoughts long after you’ve turned the last page. They serve as motivation or inspiration in those moments when you think all isn’t well with life.

The Ultimate Goal
In The Ultimate Goal, Vikram Sood, former chief of Indias external intelligence agency, the Research and Analysis Wing (RandAW), explains the narrative and how a countrys ability to construct, sustain and control narratives, at home and abroad, enhances its strength and position. Intelligence agencies invariably play a critical role in this, an often-indispensable tool of statecraft. A narrative may not necessarily be based on truth, but it does need to be plausible, have a meaning and create a desired perception. During most of the twentieth century, intelligence agencies helped shape narratives favourable to their countries agendas through literature, history, drama, art, music and cinema. Today, social media has become crucial to manipulating, countering or disrupting narratives, with its ability to spread fake news disinformation, and provoke reactions.

The word as revelation: names of Gods
There are two opposing views about language, both advanced by distinguished thinkers. One view holds that a language is external to objects and thoughts; the other view regards it as fundamental to them. In what sense or senses are these views true? Can they be reconciled? Language has not merely expressed man’s fears; it has also expressed his sense of mystery. Again and again, man has sung of Gods and Divine Life and his idea of the Good and the Beautiful in sublime speech. This sublime speech, these inspired words, he has treasured as his veritable heritage, his Vedas. But in the passage of time, man’s’ thought-habits and speech-mores change and the inspired words become difficult to understand. Can a study of language help us to recapture the meanings of older scriptures? Can this study help us to understand the deeper life of man, his vision of God and the Good? Can this study throw some light on religious consciousness in general and the cherished old scriptures in particular? For example, can we understand the mentality of the seers of the Vedas–humanity’s oldest extant scripture–by studying their language? Or can we understand the import of their language by entering into the state of their mind? The book studies human speech in its relation to man’s deeper psyche and religious consciousness. It adds a new dimension to the science of Semantics by showing how physical meanings of a word become sensuous meanings, become concepts and ideas, become names of the powers of the psyche, become Names of Gods, depending upon the organ of mind–indriya, manas, buddhi, — which is using that word as also on the level of purity-bhumi–of the organ concerned.

Voice of India, इतिहास, राजनीति, पत्रकारिता और समाजशास्त्र, सही आख्यान (True narrative)Time for Stock Taking: Whither Sangh Parivar?
A study of Hindu-Muslim relations since the foundation of the Indian National Congress in 1885 tells us that Muslims have been making demands – ideological, political, territorial – and Hindus conceding them all along. Yet the Muslim problem remains with us in as acute a form as ever. With the advent of petro-dollars and the emergence of V.P. Singh, Laloo Prasad, Mulayam Singh and Kanshi Ram On the political scene, Muslims have become as aggressive and intransigent as in the pre-Partition period. It has become a habit with Hindu leaders to take Hindus for granted and bargain with Muslims on the latter’s terms. Leaders of the Indian National Congress have taken Hindus for granted from 1885 till today. Now leaders of the Sangh Parivar look like following the same path. Hindus have to decide as to how long they are going to be taken for granted. ‘Contrary to certain impressions created in the media,’ observes Koenraad Elst, ‘the BJS-BJP and RSS leaders have a heartfelt desire to woo the Muslims. The present official position of the RSS (and a fortiori of the BJP) is, more than ever, that Islam itself is quite alright, only fundamentalism is wrong. Even the well-known secularist theory that the Hindu-Muslim conflict was merely a concoction of the wily British colonizers is often repeated in RSS publications, sometimes with the addition that Congress and other secularist parties have now assumed the divisive role which the British once played. In every case, the role of the intrinsic hostility which Islam itself preaches and practices against ‘idolatry’ is down-played or kept out of the picture.’ ‘It is hard to conceive of a situation,’ he continues, ‘where a society is vexed and tortured by a persistent enemy, then generates a millions-strong organization pledged to the defense of this society, and yet this organization, this boastful ‘vanguard’, fails to produce even the most sketchy analysis of the motives and methods of this enemy. Only Hindus could fare this badly. Fifty years after the Partition, twenty-six years after the East Bengal genocide, there are still Hindus singing mendacious refrains like Ram Rahim Ek Hai and ‘equal truth of all Religions, because their supposed leaders have never bothered to inform them. A large part of the reason is to be found in specific choices made by the Sangh leadership, most of all choose to seek secular respectability by means of appeasement policies including flattery of Mohammed and Islam’ (Bharatiya Janata Party vis-a-vis Hindu Resurgence). This compilation shows that in its flurry for forming a government at the Centre, the Sangh leadership has fallen back on policies pursued by the Indian National Congress under the leadership of Mahatma Gandhi who harbored a lifelong illusion that he could move the Muslim Indians into the national mainstream by flattering Islam. The Mahatma ended by becoming the Father of Pakistan, and a shahid in the service of his mindless slogan – sarva-dharma-samabhava. We wonder where the Sangh leadership will land whatever has survived of Hindu society and culture in a shrunken and shrinking Hindu homeland. Hindu intelligentsia has to come forward and stop it from taking the Hindu masses for another ride.
