How India’s Tax System and Bureaucratic Red Tape Are Undermining Manufacturing Growth

Introduction
India’s bureaucracy—often called the "steel frame" of the nation—holds significant administrative authority through the Indian Administrative Service (IAS) and other civil services. This system, modeled after the British colonial structure, is characterized by its hierarchy and emphasis on procedure, making it powerful yet often slow to adapt to modern needs.
Introduction
No Bag Day (or Bagless Day) is a designated day when students attend school without their usual textbooks and bags, and instead participate in interactive, experiential learning activities. This concept, championed by NEP 2020, is gaining momentum across India—including Jammu & Kashmir—as a powerful way to make education more engaging, skill-oriented, and student-centric.
"Chenab Valley: Quest for Identity" explores the rich historical, cultural, and geographical complexities of Chenab Valley in Jammu and Kashmir. Historically influenced by various civilizations, the region faces an identity crisis exacerbated by its diverse ethnic composition and geopolitical position. Political conflicts and inadequate resource allocation have led to economic and social marginalization. Despite rich natural resources and tourism potential, the valley suffers from underdevelopment and neglect. The book calls for greater autonomy, equitable resource distribution, and infrastructural investments to foster regional development, preserve cultural heritage, and promote unity among its diverse communities.
