Bastar, 1862
₹850.00In the summers of 1861 and 1862, Captain CLR Glasfurd, a British India bureaucrat, toured Bastar on horseback. His Report on the Dependency of Bastar, originally an official tour document, offers a glimpse into the Gond-inhabited region of Dandakaranya, north of the Godavari River, mentioned in the Ramayana. Glasfurd’s account sheds light on the early days of British India, the empire’s expansion into India’s hinterlands, and the complexities of imperialism. It also explores the rise of commerce-centric ‘development,’ presenting both its positive and negative aspects.
A century later, in the same land Glasfurd once surveyed, a very different story unfolded.
I, Pravir, the Adivasi God is the personal account of Pravir Chandra Bhanjdeo Kakatiya, the last Maharajah of Bastar, deeply revered by his people and remembered across India for his tragic end at the handsof the State in 1966. Crowned at the age of seven after the sudden death of his mother, Pravir was raised under the care of English governesses and, as a teenager, signed the Deed of Accession merging the State of Bastar into the Indian Union. Initially idealistic, he soon found himself alienated in the new republic, his idealism shattered by betrayal. Officially declared insane, though later proven sane, Pravir was stripped of his title, impoverished, and assassinated in 1966, before he turned forty. This is his story, in his own words.

History of Private Banking in South Canara District (1906-69)
₹580.00Author: Amol Agrawal
This book explores the unique history of banking in India’s South Canara district. The origin and growth of banking in this region played a significant role in the history of Indian banking, but its contributions remain under-researched. The banks of South Canara are particularly noteworthy as they implemented financially inclusive practices long before they were made mandatory during the nationalization of banks in 1969.
The other sixteen nationalized banks were predominantly from the four metropolitan cities Bombay, Delhi, Calcutta, and Madras. The banks of South Canara warrant special attention as the prevalence of this establishment came about in a comparatively remote district. The banks also introduced and continued to offer many schemes for the benefit of the people in the region. This book traces the evolution of banks from the South Canara and how they have contributed to the rich local administrative history of the region.
