D O O N L I B R A R Y & R e s e a r c h C e n t r e hi adri I n a recent issue of the Nepali Times 1 , Artha Beed 2 has written a thought-provoking column titled “Himalayan experiments: Can Bhutan get it right?” Based on his recent visit to Bhutan he says: “The Bhutanese talk extensively about Gross National Happiness (GNH) as a counter to market and consumption driven GDP. For instance, mountaineering in Bhutan is not allowed, as it has been deemed that the mountains should be kept as they are. Their conception of measuring people's happiness as opposed to consumption or production is unique, and is a counter to western measures of prosperity.” We feel that this sentiment will find resonance in many people in our state as well. There are a fairly large number of people who are dissatisfied with the existing pattern of development, based as it is on increasing production and consumption as the measure of growth and development. They are searching for viable alternatives to the dominant paradigm. It is in this context that we are posing the question whether the Bhutanese model can be a viable model for other countries, especially large ones like India. We are deliberately not posing this issue in the context of a state like Uttarakhand, although some people may consider it very relevant to a Himalayan state. The reason is quite obvious. Development choices in a state in India are quite severely constrained by choices made at the national level; states don’t really have much freedom in this regard and have to tailor their own development programmes within the nationally determined framework. The choice, however, is not an easy one. It would, in fact, mean turning our back on many of the conveniences that we now take for granted and are becoming increasingly addicted to. These would doubtless include the private car/motor cycle/scooter, internet, cable or dish television and mobile phone to name just a few. Artha Beed poses these questions in the context of Bhutan in the following words: “While a small population can allow for Singapore-style governance and control, the opening up of information access will be difficult to stem. How long can the local television channel, which resembles the Nepal Television of the early nineties, compete with international channels? How can one ignore the popularity of the first Miss Bhutan contest and the aspirations of Bhutanese youth that make up half the population? How long one can one expect to see this youth in (mandatory) traditional dress, coke in one hand and cell phone in the other? How will the youth challenge those who have been in power for many years in the elections slated for 2013?” Above all is the ethical question: is the choice democratically made by the people at large, or is it imposed by fiat from above? It goes without saying that in a democracy the choice of a development path has necessarily to be expressed in prescribed ways and through established institutions and procedures. Unfortunately, it remains a fact that the notion of GNH as distinguished from GNP is nowhere on the horizon of possible options in India today. No political party has espoused the idea as evidenced by their manifestoes in the last parliamentary election; neither does it figure in academic debates and discussions. On the contrary a wide consensus seems to exist in the country on the notion of inclusive growth. The issue therefore is can and should the notion of Gross National Happiness become the new orthodoxy in development? Is it desirable? Is it possible? If so how? We are posing this question with a view to provoke a debate. We welcome your views on this question, which we shall publish in the next issue of HIMADRI.

In a recent issue of the Nepali Times1, Artha Beed2 has written

a thought-provoking column titled “Himalayan experiments: Can Bhutan get it right?” Based on his recent visit to Bhutan he says: “The Bhutanese talk extensively about Gross National Happiness (GNH) as a counter to market and consumption driven GDP. For instance, mountaineering in Bhutan is not allowed, as it has been deemed that the mountains should be kept as they are. Their conception of measuring people's happiness as opposed to consumption or production is unique, and is a counter to western measures of prosperity.” We feel that this sentiment will find resonance in many people in our state as well. There are a fairly large number of people who are dissatisfied with the existing pattern of development, based as it is on increasing production and consumption as the measure of growth and development. They are searching for viable alternatives to the dominant paradigm. It is in this context that we are posing the question whether the Bhutanese model can be a viable model for other countries, especially large ones like India. We are deliberately not posing this issue in the context of a state like Uttarakhand, although some people may consider it very relevant to a Himalayan state. The reason is quite obvious. Development choices in a state in India are quite severely constrained by choices made at the national level; states don’t really have much freedom in this regard and have to tailor their own development

programmes within the nationally determined framework.

The choice, however, is not an easy one. It would, in fact, mean turning our back on many of the conveniences that we now take for granted and are becoming increasingly addicted to. These would doubtless include the private car/motor cycle/scooter, internet, cable or dish television and mobile phone to name just a few. Artha Beed poses these questions in the context of Bhutan in the following words:

“While a small population can allow for Singapore-style governance and control, the opening up of information access will be difficult to stem. How long can the local television channel, which resembles the Nepal Television of the early nineties, compete with international channels? How can one ignore the popularity of the first Miss Bhutan contest and the aspirations of Bhutanese youth that make up half the population? How long one can one expect to see this youth in (mandatory) traditional dress, coke in one hand and cell phone in the other? How will the youth challenge those who have been in power for many years in the elections slated for 2013?”

Above all is the ethical question: is the choice democratically made by the people at large, or is it imposed by fiat from above? It goes without saying that in a democracy the choice of a development path has necessarily to be expressed in prescribed ways and through established institutions

and procedures. Unfortunately, it remains a fact that the notion of GNH as distinguished from GNP is nowhere on the horizon of possible options in India today.

The period since our last newsletter has been a rather busy one for us. I

am happy to inform you that the library has continued to grow. The number of books on our shelves has crossed 12,000. Membership of the library also continues to grow apace and has just crossed 600. We are now so confident that both these numbers will continue to grow that we have stopped setting milestones and celebrating whenever we reached them as we did in the past. That does not mean, however, that we have become complacent about our progress. We continue to add new books with the same speed and welcome each new member with the same enthusiasm as we did our first one. We feel particularly happy to see both our reading rooms full all through the day. While the outside reading room meant for newspapers sees a constant flow of readers from early morning to late evening, the inside reading room, meant for books and journals, is also occupied by a regular group of readers, mostly young people. It is quite clear to us that we are filling a great need of the young people of the city for good books and a place to read. Our reading room can seat only twenty four persons in some degree of comfort, but it is quite common to see thirty or even more people cramped into that space. Of late we have started seating some readers in office spaces that happen to be unoccupied at any time. I only wish we could provide a larger and more comfortable reading room to our young readers. We are now severely cramped for space all round – the stack room is full, reading rooms are proving to be too small and the work area for the staff is severely cramped. We now have to expand our facilities, and are desperately looking at ways to do so. To ease the discomfort of our readers somewhat we have recently installed an air conditioner in the inside reading room. The small room had become quite uncomfortable in the heat with about thirty persons sitting there all day. We have also extended the reading room hours till 6.00 PM on the request of a few readers. The timings of the circulation counter had already been extended to 6.00 PM from

January 1, 2010. These changes have been generally welcomed.

These past few months we have been busy with a number of other activities as well. One of the highlights of the recent past was the second edition of Mountain Echoes, our literary festival. This year’s edition of the festival, which was held during April 2, 3 & 4 was christened Doon Readings and was organised in collaboration with Yatra Books and Penguin India Books with financial support from the Uttarakhand Tourism Development Corporation and Gas Authority of India Limited. It featured readings, panel discussions, and conversations with Hindi and English writers. Many more writers participated this time compared to the previous occasion. Some prominent names were: Liladhar Jaguri, Manglesh Dabral, Himanshu Joshi, Shekhar Joshi, Mamta Kalia, Subhash Pant, Hamad Faruqui, Yatindra Misra, Shekhar Pathak, Ruskin Bond, Pushpesh Pant, Vicky Arya, Ira Pande, Keki Daruwala, Sujeev Shakya (from Nepal), Aditya Sudarshan, Rachna Joshi, Girish Tiwari ‘Girda’, Narendra Negi etc. The programme was a great success.

The inaugural programme on the evening of April, at which the Chief Guest was Mr N.S. Napalchyal, was held on the lawns of Hotel Aketa and featured two items that were highly appreciated. One was a Jagar presentation by Basanti Bisht, the well-known exponent of this traditional folk form of Uttarakhand, and the other was a ballet on the Ganga by Sharmila Bhartari, an accomplished Odissi dancer based in Dehradun, and her troupe with commentary by the well-known stage and film personality Tom Alter, who hails from Mussoorie. The opening evening also featured poetry recital by well-known Uttarakhandi poets Liladhar Jaguri, Manglesh Dabral and the ever-popular Narendra Singh Negi. The next two days were devoted to readings, conversations and panel discussions. The full programme of the festival has been reproduced elsewhere in this newsletter.

On April 4 evening we organised a lecture by Professor D.D. Sharma, the distinguished Sanskrit scholar, linguist and cultural historian of Uttarakhand. The subject of his lecture, delivered in Hindi, was “Problems in the writing of social history of Uttarakhand”. Shri N.S. Napalchyal, Chief Secretary, Uttarakhand presided and Shri I.K. Pande, former Chief Secretary and Chairman, Third State Finance Commission, Uttarakhand was the Chief Guest. Professor Sharma

highlighted the virtual absence of reliable source material on the social structure and history of the region, especially of marginalised and peripheral groups. He pointed out that much of the work on the social history of the region can be traced to the contribution of British administrators.

He argued that a linguistic analysis can help in uncovering certain aspects of the social evolution of Uttarakhand, the evidence for is either not available or deliberately suppressed or even denied. The lecture has now been published by us and copies can be had by writing to us.

The other activities organised by us since January include:

January 11, 2010: Prof. Arvind Krishna Mehrotra gave a talk and readings from his recent (yet to be published) translations of Kabir’s poems.

February 04, 2010: Well-known American peace activist Ms. Joanne Sheehan gave a talk on “Gandhian non-violence and the response of nations towards permanent peace”.

March 06, 2010: Panel discussion moderated By Shri Rajen Brij Nath, Adviser, on a critical assessment of programmes for people with disability and what needs to be done to improve the situation. Panellists: Ms. Priyo Lal, Ms. Archana Sethi, Ms. Amrit Burret and Shri Alok Ulfat.

The National Book Trust organised an exhibition of their books at our invitation from January 9 to 14 in the Hindi Bhavan.

April 11, 2010: Kavya Sandhya, an evening of Hindi and Urdu poetry recitation organised in collaboration with Navodit Swar Saptahik.

April 24, 2010: Readings from Shakespeare in celebration of his birth anniversary.

It is quite obvious this has been a rather busy, but exciting period for us. But we have felt encouraged by the support that we have been getting from our members, readers and the citizens of Dehradun in general. Needless to say we greatly value this support and hope we will continue to receive it. Our only regret is that our communication continues to be one-way. We would certainly like to hear from you, especially if you have any suggestions for improvement of our services.

Good Bye for now.

From the Director

Panel Discussion

Panel Discussion on The Continuous Debate about Equality of Women

A Panel Discussion on The Continuous Debate about

Equality of Women is Largely a Psuedo Debate was held at the Regent Hotel, EC Road on 11.11.2009.

It was agreed upon that even now the Indian society was basically patriarchal as the sex ratio of 927 females to 1000 males and a literacy gap of 21 percent suggested. Dr B K Joshi pointed out that the problem has become more complicated because of the complete absence of a dialogue between those who believed in gender equality and those who did not.

The state of Uttarakhand has a very rich folk culture. No wonder

that this state has produced so many eminent writers both in Hindi as well as in English. Doon Readings a literary festival organized by the Doon Library and Research Centre in collaboration with Penguin and Yatra was organized to showcase the literary and cultural richness of Uttarakhand. The festival was held on 2nd,3rd and 4th April,2010.The festival was inaugurated by NS Napalchyal, the Chief Secretary of Uttarakhand with the lighting of the lamp and there was a message from Mrs Margaret Alva, the Governor of Uttarakhand which was read out by Dr BK Joshi,Director, Doon Library and Research Centre. The message said that the Doon Library and Research Centre has become a popular venue for book lovers in Dehradun and in times to come is going to become a centre for art and culture. In her message she was appreciative of the efforts made by the Library to organize this festival. On the first evening. There was rendering of poetry by Leeladhar Jugoodi, Manglesh Dabral and the

renowned folk artiste Narendra Singh Negi sang his compositions. This session was compared by Shekhar Pathak. Vasanti Bisht presented jagar folk songs.

The second day began with a discussion between Om Prakash Valmiki and S S Nirupam. The subject was Wnds of Change. Om Prakash Valmiki said that considering the magnitude of the oppression faced by the Dalits a mere wind cannot suffice. It has to be a cyclone. After

that Biswajeet Singh,a former Rajya Sabha MP recited a few poems from his book Kuch Shabd Kuch Lakeerein, which was released by Haridutt Bhatt Sailesh. Vicky Arya read out a few poems from her book Banjare Khwab. This was followed by a discussion between the author of the book, Unleashing Nepal, - a book authored by Sujeev Shah was released.

Book Review

Parthsarathy Gupta, Power, Politics, and The People,Studies in British Politics and Indian Nationalism, New Delhi, 2001

Prof Parthasarathy Gupta or just PSG to his students was one of

the most meticulous researchers of Modern Indian History. His observations were based on a very thorough study of archival sources available both in India as well as in England. His area of study was British Imperialism. The institutional and ideological framework, the various lobbies influencing imperial policy, its response to the forces of nationalism and the rise of the Labor Party after the first World War and how this major change in British politics influenced imperial policy. It was this thorough knowledge of the subject which enabled him to sum up the broad contours of the British imperial policy after the first World War in a single sentence.’The right hand would stretch itself and say that the empire has to be controlled with an iron hand while the left would search the pocket and say but where is the money for it.’

Essays written by Prof Gupta on this subject dealing with the period from 1880 to 1947 have been compiled and published in a book form after his death in 1999. The style of writing is very lucid and therefore very easy to understand. Even a lay reader will find it an interesting read and his interest in this very fascinating subject will be stimulated. One essay on Imperial Strategy and the Transfer of Power, 1939-1951 provides great

insight into the emergence of the Kashmir problem. After 1945 when the modalities of the transfer of power were being worked out the British were not wanting to partition India as the proposed state of Pakistan was not going to serve the imperial interest of Britain. They hoped to hold onto India by taking advantage of the communal imbroglio for some more time. However,the post 1946 communal violence cut short their options. Another essay on India in Commonwealth Defence, 1947-1956 gives an insight into the perception of the West regarding the role of India. There are essays on the process of the Indianisation of the Army and the growth of an industrial working class in India between 1880 to 1920.

The essay on the Courts and the Quit India movement will interest students interested in the functioning of the judiciary. During the 1942 movement the colonial judiciary upheld the principle of an individual’s right to natural justice. There are interesting references to some court cases concerning persons arrested during the movement. Radio and the Raj discuses the various debates taking place while introducing a state controlled radio in India. There is also an essay on the role of music

especially folk music in politicizing the masses in Bengal. The compositions of DL Roy and Nazrul Islam are analyzed in some detail.

Education

Ghaas Kaatne ke liye Bhi Taleem Zaroori Hai

This was the essence of a survey which I conducted in the

Sikandrabad town of Bulandshahar district to study the Muslim attitude towards education in 1996 - 97. During this study I interacted with persons who were the first generation recipients of education. The occupational profile of the Muslim community in India is predominantly artisan. The perception was that when one has to follow one’s family vocation what is the point in having education. This was the main reason for a high level of illiteracy among Muslims. But now those attitudes are changing. There is a feeling that education makes a person more able. Even if the person has to pursue his family vocation education is going to enable him to do his work in a better manner.

Such an attitude is a very good example to be emulated by the educated youth

which feels demoralized if they do not get employment worthy of their educational qualifications. Education should give them the confidence that whatever work they do would be much better than the work done by the others because they are educated.

-Manoj Panjani

reacts before getting the facts and thinking things through!

Company X, feeling it was time for a shake-up, hired a new CEO and he was determined to rid the company of all slackers.

On a tour of the facilities, the new CEO noticed a guy leaning against a wall. The room was full of workers and he wanted to let them know that he meant business. He walked up to the guy at the wall and asked, 'How much money do you make a week?' A little surprised, the young man looked at him and replied, 'I make about $400 a week. Why'

The CEO then handed the guy $1,600 in cash and screamed, 'Here's four weeks' pay, now GET OUT and DON’T COME BACK!' The guy left without saying a word to the CEO.

Feeling pretty good with himself, the CEO looked around the room and asked, 'Does anyone want to tell me what that goof-ball did here?'

From across the room came a voice, 'Pizza delivery guy from Domino's.'
