Note that the Table of Contents (TOC) entries are clickable (hyperlinked to associated chapters in book) but Google Docs (default viewer for Google Drive for pdf file) does not render that functionality. Downloading the file to computer and then opening in Chrome browser (and perhaps other browsers) or Foxit Reader program (and perhaps other PDF reader programs) allows user to use the clickable TOC functionality.

======================
Late on 2nd March 2020, I have made the first level application for ISBN number for above ebook (PDF format). Once I am allotted an ISBN for it (I expect it to take one to two weeks), I will update the ebook with that and make another release of it.

=======================

Notion Press paperback (8.5 inch x 11 inch) version

I have placed an order for one copy. I have to check that printed copy and then make updates, if required. I already have some broken links fixes that needs to be updated in the paperback. So I do not recommend anybody buying the paperback as of now. But the sale page is online (no way to turn it off temporarily using Notion Press author dashboard interface). Note that I have checked the book content online and barring a few broken links in the arxiv.org paper text part, the book content online is good. But how it will come out in paperback print is something that I can comment on only after I receive delivery of the order I have already made.

Here's the Notion Press store paperback sale page: https://notionpress.com/read/indian-computer-science-cs-information-technology-it-academic-reform-past-activism-blog-book [Sale price: Rs. 325 + shipping.]

And here's the same paperback book sold on amazon.in: https://www.amazon.in/dp/1648501397  [Sale price: Rs. 325 + shipping.]

Pothi.com paperback A4 version

I have placed an order for one copy. I have kept this sale page as private now. Changing it to public later on is a simple author dashboard operation on Pothi.com. After I check out the copy, make required changes and upload the new version (including fixes for few broken links that I have already made in the ebook released on 2nd Mar. 2020), I will make this sale page public. [Sale price: Rs. 320 + shipping.]
