ABOUT THE BOOK:- The book is a study of the multidimensional challenges faced by the countries in the Indian subcontinent. For the purpose of this study, five nations--India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal and Bhutan--have been taken into account. Geographical contiguity has been the determining force in this selection. The countries in the region famously share a vibrant common history, underlined by one significant common feature—economic backwardness and lagging human development. Of these countries, India and Pakistan have consistently existed on hostile terms ever since their emergence as independent states in 1947. This perpetual animosity has a direct bearing on their economic and developmental status. The race for military superiority has overshadowed the necessary and needed push for attaining human development targets as a regional concern. With increasing budgetary allocations channeled to defense preparedness and intensive, mostly opaque, exorbitant foreign procurement for competitive beefing up of military arsenals, key human development sectors such as education, health, gender are relegated to insignificance. The authors offer a solution to relieve the Indian subcontinent from this everlasting tragedy of backwardness
