 The Institute for Development of Technology for Rural Advancement (IDTRA) is inviting proposals to write a text or reference book on rural advancement.The Central Universities, State Universities, Deemed to be Universities, State Private Universities, Colleges, autonomous Colleges, Institutions of National Importance, and Institutions of Eminence admit thousands of students in different streams in UG/PG courses every year. Quality text and reference books are always in demand, and there is a big gap in demand and supply of standard text and reference books. The onus lies on the IDTRA to bridge this gap. Titles and contents have been developed for the relevant standard books, and interested authors are invited to write the same.

The deadline for submitting a synopsis of the book is not specified. The sole restriction is to verify if a title is still available and has not been assigned to another author yet. Academicians interested in developing text and reference books with a wider context in mind, as well as those from all streams concerned with rural advancement, are invited to apply. The list of titles is provided; confirm with the editor (idtraidtra@gmail.com) that the title is available before submitting the synopsis of the book. The goal of the institute is to publish all of the titles as quickly as possible. Both the reference book and the text may be in English.

Please review the author guidelines before submitting your manuscript to enhance the processing.
