| Summary/Abstract |
In this paper I compare late nineteenth and early twentieth-century sport hunting of markhor, a mountain goat, by British civil and military officials in the mountainous northern frontier region of Kashmir State, with their hunting of tigers, particularly man-eating tigers in the hilly and plains regions of India. Using these two instances, this paper elucidates and compares two competing visions of colonial governance. The British sportsman hunted man-eating tigers in order to protect Indian society from wild nature. Hunting them was also symbolic of their welfare-oriented governance ideology. They also hunted markhor in the northern mountainous region using begar, or forced labour, which they justified by falling back on the wider colonial representation of the northern mountainous region as a civilization-less area, where a more coercive form of governance was needed. So, rather than protecting society from nature, as in the case of man-eating tiger hunting in the plains, what was needed in the mountains was the ability of the British to introduce civilization into unruly nature via a strong disciplinary force. I argue that colonial governance entailed not simply a struggle to civilize India and its population, but a more profound struggle for control over nature.

| Summary/Abstract |
Gandhi was a philosopher and his are philosophical techniques to reformation. The concepts Ahisma and Satyagraha had used by Gandhi in its pure Indian traditional colour (Nanda, 1985, 33). Ahimsa and Satyagraha, the two words are a condensed form from Sanskrit language reflecting Indian socio-cultural milieu. Ahimsa and Satyagraha apart from their word meanings need to be understood within Indian socio-cultural context.

| Summary/Abstract |
The atrocities on Dalits at Una1 (Gujarat), the institutional murder of Rohit Vemula, and ever growing crimes against Dalits along with the statements against reservations by a section of RSS leaders, have brought once again the issues of Dalit emancipation and cast discrimination on the fore as part of an on-going national debate since independence.

| Summary/Abstract |
The Indian Judiciary has completed 60 years of its existence and has made long lasting contribution to the system of governance that has impacted the life of the people and the nation. In many ways, it has impacted the nature, scope and processes of public governance and can claim credit for expanding the meaning of the constitution in favor of different segments, especially the poor, of the society. It has strengthened Indian federation, catalyzed goal achievement, deepened democracy and defended people against excesses of the State. It has acted as a promoter of peace, cordiality and balance and coordination between different organs of the government. At one time it was thought that the role of judiciary is only to interpret the laws and the regulations and provide judgements exclusively from the legal point of view. This perspective has undergone a sea change in the recent times. Envisaging the role of the supreme court of India, the first Chief Justice of India, Justice Kania said:
"The Supreme Court would declare and interpret the law of the land, and with the tradition of Indian judiciary, it would work in no spirit of formal or barren legalism, within the limits prescribed by the constitution. The court, as part of the federal system and as the defender of democracy, is responsive to the changes in Indian society

| Summary/Abstract |
This paper argues that a distinctive form of public interest litigation has been used effectively in the Indian Supreme Court to protect the rights of exploited workers. By looking at the extreme cases of child labour and bonded labour, this study finds that the Indian Supreme Court has been labour-friendly, and has taken seriously the constitutional promise of socio-economic development. In rulings that enlist the aid of local governments and non-governmental organizations, the higher judiciary has helped to make positive changes for the most disadvantaged workers in Indian society. This paper results from a year of fieldwork in New Delhi, and relies on case rulings, archival work, and ethnographic field research
