Law Books

The law of our country is the Constitutional law of our country. All our rights, all our freedoms and all the security that we have is all within the Constitutional law of our country. Pen mightier than the sword? Definitely.

The most important part about our Constitution is that it is subject to changes. After all, our Constitutional law has to change with the times too. This also means that sometimes some citizens demand a change while some resist. Which provisions of our Constitutional law have provoked passions and dominated debates? Here are some of them:




Article 370

Whenever the conversation turns to Jammu & Kashmir, this Article from our Constitution always pops up. Why? Under Constitutional law, J&K is treated as an unique case, with the State Assembly of J&K deciding whether the provisions of the Constitutional law apply to the state. Except for Finance & Communications, Defence, Foreign Affairs, the state has the final say in the others. Over time however, laws and acts have been applied to the state in many respects, ranging from recovery of loans to inheritance of property by daughters. As of now, the most noteworthy aspect about it is the difficulty for non J&K citizens to buy property and settle there. 

Article 355

Under Article 355, our Constitutional law protects the Armed Forces (Special Powers) Act. Acording to this Act, when a specific state/ union territory is deemed to be 'disturbed' by the Governor of the said place, the Central government can send in armed forces there. Under AFSPA, the forces are empowered to arrest in the absence of warrants, shoot and kill after a mere warning,  and most importantly are provided with legal immunity for their actions. Present in Manipur and J&K, the law has been accused of being 'draconian' and of being abused.

Article 371A

Our Constitutional law has a special entry for Nagaland. Under this article, no law may apply to Nagaland if it interferes with religious & social practices, as well as customary law of the Nagas, and also with respect to ownership and sale of land in the state. This has also meant that the traditional practice of keeping women away from the decision making bodies has been maintained; the recent protests in the state were related with, among other factors, to the proposal of 33% reservation of seats for women in the muncipal bodies.

Article 356

President's Rule? This is that article from our Constitutional law which is responsible for it. Of course, while successive governments at the Centre have nudged here & there and helped to bring about change in the ruling government in a state, the courts have also acted to mak sure that this Constitutional law is not abused.

History Books

History. The name itself evokes boredom. Lists of dates and of long-dead people, what good are they for the present day? Alright, maybe history does warn us about the mistakes we have already committed, but how on earth is anyone to read and remember all those lists of dates and long dead people, that too from every part of the globe? How interesting can it be to read about an aspiring Afghan chief who invited members of his family for dinner, excused himself in between and blew up all of his cousins (and rivals for becoming chief) through the hidden sacks of the gunpowder they were sitting on? Or about a certain king in Bukhara who threw a couple of English envoys into a pit full of all sorts of insects, kept them there for more than a year, and then finally killed them?



Nah. Boring History

Thing is, there are countless similar stories in history, all of them more boring than the other. Reading these stories? It's your life after all; so if you're even interested in reading history, you can 'do whatever you want to do'.

India has never been more united than it is now; that's a fact. For almost all of its human history, India has been composed of way too many diverse and divided people; all of these people have such different tales to tell that it's criminal to not know them. Start with this, and get an overview of the different lands of India in almost every main point of history.

Sometimes, the best account of what is happening can be understood from a complete stranger's eyes; this is especially relevant when it comes to history. It is only a person who has never seen the sights before who can give the most detailed description of that specific time in history. Based on this, the book here is a record of what the earliest tourists to India saw. 

I know what you are thinking; why would anyone want to read anymore about an event and about a man, both of whom have been a part of every history textbook we have opened? But what IF the event in question is being narrated by someone who experienced all of it, first-hand? And what IF the narrator went on to become the first ever President of India? This is as good as a slice of history in your hands. Have a look.

Even now, history is being created. Be it Trump or the Manipur elections, all of it will leave behind its records and be remembered, for better or worse. Something like that was what happened in Ayodhya. The narratives vary depending on who you ask, but the day it happened, these people created history. In today's times, where the familiar war of religion vs religion is being seen, this might be a refresher on what happens when both sides lose logic.

Your Treasure Hunt for Paper Book May End Here

There can be no such friend who is as loyal as a Book is!- Ernest Hemingway


Who says the paper is obsolete? Who says digital screens will soon make paper vanish? Paper is an attachment; paper has that belongingness; if you are a paper book lover, then time has come when you can stack your library with some precious numbers and you do not need to pay much for them either. 

Arrival of E-Books Has Opened New Friontiers for Paper Lovers

Here we are talking about two different types of individuals, some of them love to stack their books in hard drives and read them on illuminated screens; and in the same breath, we would like to name people, who are in love with paper and want to preserve their feelings and wisdom in its paper form. In the last few years, we have seen a digitization of paper library and this digitization has already created a kind of surplus of the books. If you have some old books stacked in your study and you want to sell them off, then instead of a scrap vendor, auction your precious collection on the internet.

Selling Old Books on the Internet Can be a Lucrative Deal

Normal scrap vendors weigh your books in kilos and later on, you can see the same book selling on a much higher price on the pavements of the city. Now, with the arrival of the internet in the game, you can also auction your books on the internet and get flat fifty percent of the printed rate on them. This is a flat offer and you can avail this offer on www.shopmebook.com right away. Upload your ad and wait for this clearance sale organized on one of the most happening names in the world of old and used books. 

No Need to Wait for Your Regular Book Vendor, Book the Syllabus of The Next Class Right in the Vacations

We would like to pick it up with the example of America; old and used school-books are quite useful there. They pass on the legacy of the book to the new entrants. This is a noble cause; this is a national culture, where they are treating education as a treasure. Pages like www.shopmebook.com are an attempt to bring this kind of culture in our country as well.

Separate Shelf for Curriculum Books

When you will visit this page, you will find that they have dedicated a separate shelf for academic books; you can get the best deals here and make the best of your leisure time. This hunt can bring you some of the most amazing deals because the publishers have this tendency to appreciate the price of the books and here you are getting them on a depreciated price.
