This book presents a systematic analysis of the rise and decline of
the Indian National Congress since 1980s, using the frame dominance
to hibernation. The Indian National Congress (INC or Congress
Party) originated in the national movement for India`s freedom and
has since been the centerpiece of post-Independence multiparty
system for nearly four decades. However, the Congress has been
experiencing a phase of serious decline since the 2014 and 2019
General Elections. Analyzing years of political history and
contemporary developments, this volume brings to the fore important
issues and key themes such as, • Evolution of party system in
India, the contemporary dynamics and movements; • Indian National
Congress under Indira Gandhi and Rajiv Gandhi; • Ideological and
policy reorientation of the party in 1990s under P. V. Narsimha
Rao; • Revival of mass membership and organizational elections in
the party; • Indian National Congress in the 2000s, under the
leadership of Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi; • The 2019 debacle
and change in the leadership. A comprehensive work on the history
of the Congress Party in India, this volume will be an essential

Despite extensive research and medical advancements in the
prevention, diagnosis and treatment of dreaded diseases like
Diabetes, Cancer, Neurodegenerative and Heart diseases, continue to
impose a great threat to human life. Research in human
developmental biology has led to the discovery of stem cells which
has the potential to cure wide range of dreaded diseases. Stem
cells are the unicellular equivalent to the entire animal. In
optimum culture milieu they can be differentiated into all cell
types of an adult animal. The capability of potency and the
relative ease to isolate and expand these cells are invaluable
properties for regenerative medicine. Stem cells hold tremendous
promise to unravel the key developmental pathways involved in
organogenesis and may serve as an essential tissue source for
regenerative therapy. Stem cell biology is a fast growing field
that is providing new insights into the molecular mechanisms that
control developmental processes. At the same time, stem cells may
have potential uses in the treatment of devastating diseases such
as cardiovascular disease, neurodegenerative disease,
musculoskeletal disease, diabetes and cancer. The enormous clinical
potential of cardiac regeneration has generated great expectations
in both clinicians and patients. Regenerative medicine in the field
of skin, cartilage, bone, adipose tissue, and cornea is already
well established and is used clinically. Stem cell research
harbours potential to have a significant impact on human health.
The book will help to increase the awareness vis-a-vis stem cell
research in developing countries in particular India. The book
pronounces the ways which may help us to extract maximum benefits
from state of the art technology. The thrust areas of the proposed

Myanmar and India share an umbilical relationship going back to the
British era when they were ruled as one nation till 1937. The
cordial relations continued even after both countries became
independent and embraced democracy almost at the same time. On the
other hand China-Myanmar relations have seen a lot of undulation
over the last 70 years. However in the last three decades there has
been a total flip in the relations leading to Myanmar with its
military regime almost becoming a colony of China. The restoration
of democracy after the 2015 elections saw the return of a civilian
government, heralding a new era of development and changes. Recent
times have seen the lifting of economic sanctions by the west, thus
lowering its dependency on China. Undoubtedly the two Asian giants,
India and China, have strong strategic interests in Myanmar. While
maintaining its newly-formed identity, Myanmar is deftly engaged in
balancing relations with them both. This book will take you through
the journey of these relationships and will bring to fore what
measures can be taken by India to take these relations to a new
high.
