Evaluating the sustainability of natural, organic and conventional farming practices: A comparative study in maize-wheat cropping system in North-west India
Wl-1566-Politics of Emotions and Parliamentary Election in Punjab
The paper argues that, in the recent parliamentary election in Punjab, the political leadership of different political parties employed populist schemes and emotional chords as major factors to shape the political perceptions and voting behaviour of the people in order to achieve desired goals. In this multi-faceted contest, leadership of different political parties underlines two types of emotional idioms namely panthic surge and bonding with th…
Deras, Identity, and Caste Cleavages in the Sikh-Dominated Society of Punjab
The argument of the paper is that deras, as religio-spiritual and philanthropic organizations, play a critical role in the identity formation of their followers (by providing them distinct symbols, sacred texts, gurus, cultural traits, codes of conduct, rituals, and prayers), which score the social surface and carve out numbers of distinct religio-cultural groups in the Sikh-dominated society of Punjab. Moreover, the value gainsay, along with the…
Medieval in Transition: Authority, Resistance and Spirituality c.1500—c.1700
This book reconstructs the historical transition in the undivided Panjab during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries.

Dalits Cultural Spaces and Contested Culture in Punjab: Relocating the Ravidass Deras and Ad Dharmi Jatheras
The article argues that that often the marginalised sections per se and dalits, in particular, configure and shape a web of new socio-cultural traits, artefacts and monuments which provide them distinct social and physical spaces to contest the suppression of mainstream culture which historically placed them at the periphery. New dalit cultural spaces are politically constructed which have become the venues of their identity formation, constructi…
Deras, Dalit Assertion and Resistance: A Case Study of Dera Baba Bhure Shah Sappanwala
The article argues that in Punjab several Deras are facilitating the elevation of the socio-economic conditions of Dalits through didactics and commandments. It further challenges the varying inimitable dominant agrarian structure of the village/rural society. The dominant strata/caste(s) of the society, however, resists this Dalit assertion by using socio-religious, economic and political forces to maintain the status quo. The present study expl…
Dalits in Punjab: Cultural Assertion and Heritage Reconstruction
Rising cultural consciousness among Dalits in Punjab underpins recent endeavours to construct a distinct identity and cultural heritage. The article examines how this renovation of identity and culture, centred on claiming and gaining social esteem and self-respect, is visibly expressed in heritage construction, with important support through transnational diasporic connections. This article shows specifically how monetary and ideational inputs f…
Evaluation of welfare rights advice in primary care: The general practice perspective
Income maximisation may reduce enduring poverty-related health inequalities. Specialist welfare rights advice in primary care has been proposed and, in some areas, implemented, but evaluation data from the general practice perspective is needed. The present study aimed to evaluate the impact on general practice of specialist welfare rights advice, comparing practices with and without in-house provision of welfare advice using a cross-sectional po…
