The current issue presents the different shades and lights of India’s past through various papers. Although ‘Gold Rush’ is popularly associated with America and a study of the same in Indian context will be interesting to readers. Another interesting paper is investigating the true identity of legendary figure of Bihar “Tilka Manjhi”. Paper on amalgamation of Indo-Greek into Indian society and its structure would be another interesting read for many. Paper on first all India communist conference in Kanpur will be of some help assessing the current scenario of shrinking political space of communist party in north-east. There are papers on transfer of agrarian resources to state, monuments of champanagar, Ramakrishna mission movement, wood’s dispatch and post zamindari abolition to interest many. The paper on Multan shrines contains a systematic data of colonial times. I hope the current issue will prove its worth and will receive the whole hearted support from academicians, research scholars and students.. Last but but not the least, I would like to thank Dr. Akhtar Hussain Sandhu and Dr. Farzand Masih, Dr. Rafida Nawaz from Pakistan, Dr. Umakanta Mishra from Cuttack and Dr. Ajmal Mueen from Calicut for their valuable suggestion. I am thankful to my friend Dr. Atul Kumar Shukla and Dr. Adesh Gupta for their keen interest and academic contribution to the journal. I am also thankful to Prof. R. Mahalaxmi for continuous support. Your valuable observations and suggestions are most welcome.
