Andaman and Nicobar Islands, popularly known as 'Kala Pani' comprise of 572 islands, only 36 being inhabited. The early history of these islands of exquisite beauty is shrouded in mystery. Occupied by East India Company towards the close of the 18th century, they were used by the British for a penal settlement after 1857. Prisoners sentenced to life imprisonment were kept in cellular jail. The real inhabitants of these islands are, however, some aboriginal tribes like the Great Andamanese, the Onge, Jarawas, Sentinelese, and Shompens, whose past is mysterious and future uncertain. The Japanese had made all preparations for the occupation of the islands a decade before actual occupation on 23rd March 1942. New hopes and desires of independence were enkindled in the minds of the Islanders. However, the duration of this period of friendship was extremely short, and people were soon caught in a grip of terror, resulting in atrocities, round-ups, and mass murders. Netaji's visit also could not improve the situation. The nuclear attacks brought Japan to her knees and the Instrument of Surrender was signed at Port Blair on 9th October 1945. As a result of the war-crime courts, out of 16 accused, 6 were executed at Singapore and the rest were sentenced to various terms ranging from 7 to 25 years. The islands now enjoy the status of a union territory.

This book aims to introduce black rice to a broader audience, addressing the scattered and inaccessible information surrounding this unique crop. It covers various aspects, including research, history, and development, making it suitable for both rice researchers and curious non-professionals. Known as forbidden rice, black rice is rich in nutrients and antioxidants, surpassing blueberries in anthocyanin content. Its dark color comes from the anthocyanins in the outer kernel layer. Historically, it was reserved for Chinese royals, believed to enhance longevity, and unauthorized consumption was punishable by death, hence its nickname. Today, black rice is widely available globally. Research indicates that it can reduce Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS), which are linked to numerous diseases, and may help combat diabetes, inflammation, heart disease, allergies, obesity, and cancer. This rice is often referred to as long life rice and is considered a modern superfood by nutritionists. Cultivation methods are similar to those for regular rice, with various Asian varieties, though Chinese black rice is the most renowned. Its bran serves as a natural food dye, and it can be used in noodles, pasta, porridge, and wine. While it takes longer to cook than white rice, black rice is an excellent food choice for maintaining health alongside regular exercise.
