A Comprehensive Study of Uttarakhand (7th Edition) is one of the most exhaustive and authoritative books available on the Indian state of Uttarakhand. Written by Himanshu Kafaltia and Gunjan Sharma Kafaltia, both experienced civil servants, this book is specially designed for students, competitive exam aspirants, researchers, and anyone seeking an in-depth understanding of Uttarakhand.
The book offers a holistic and structured study of the state, covering its history, geography, environment, economy, society, culture, polity, governance, and district-wise details. It is particularly useful for candidates preparing for UKPSC, State Public Service Examinations, PCS, Patwari, Police, Group-C exams, and other Uttarakhand-specific competitive examinations.
The content is divided into well-organised units. The initial chapters introduce the state profile and state symbols, followed by a detailed historical analysis ranging from prehistoric and ancient Uttarakhand to medieval and modern periods. Important historical personalities and movements are also discussed in a clear and exam-oriented manner.
The geography section explains physical settings, glaciers, rivers, climate, soils, vegetation, agriculture, and regional geography with clarity. The Environment and Ecology unit provides in-depth coverage of forest resources, biodiversity, wetlands, environmental movements, Van Panchayats, and disaster-related challenges, making it extremely relevant for current exam trends.
A major highlight of the book is its extensive section on the Economy of Uttarakhand, covering economic development, state indicators, Gross Environment Product (GEP), mineral resources, industries, tourism, power, transport, education, health, and human development. The inclusion of the Uttarakhand Budget 2025–26 adds strong contemporary relevance.
The Society and Culture unit beautifully captures the essence of Uttarakhand’s people, languages, food, folk songs, dances, art, architecture, fairs, and festivals. The Polity and Governance section explains the executive, legislature, judiciary, local governance, administrative structure, revenue system, and important institutions in a concise yet comprehensive manner.
Another standout feature is the district-wise detailed study of all 13 districts of Uttarakhand, including history, geography, culture, tourist places, and key facts. Additional units on Random Facts, Important Issues, and Recent Legislations such as the Uniform Civil Code of Uttarakhand (2024) make this edition highly updated.
Written in simple language with a logical flow, this book serves as a one-stop reference for anyone serious about mastering Uttarakhand-related studies.
