Tripura’s accomplishments in advancing human development have many distinguishing features which separate it out from much of the rest of India. An understanding of the special successes of Tripura is important for the people of Tripura, but – going beyond that – there are lessons here for the rest of India in appreciating what this small state has been able to achieve, particularly given the adverse circumstances that had to be overcome. Among the adversities that had to be addressed, perhaps the most important is the gigantic influx of refugees into this tiny state at the time of the partition of India in 1947 and again during the turmoil in East Pakistan preceding the formation of Bangladesh in 1971.

  • The Cultural Politics of Proxy-Voting in Nagaland
    TIF - The Cultural Politics of Proxy-Voting in Nagaland JELLE J P WOUTERS June 7, 2019 RODERICK WIJUNAMAI Voters in Kohima, Nagaland | PIB Photo Nagaland’s voter turnouts are often the highest in the country, and it may be so this time around as well. But why was the citizenry of Nagaland so keen to vote for their lone, largely ineffectual representative in the Lok Sabha? Of all truisms about democracy, one that is held to be particularly true is that any democracy’s vitality and verve depends on its voter turnouts during elections. As the acclaimed political and social theorist Steven Lukes (1975: 304) concluded long ago: “Participation in elections can plausibly be interpreted as the symbolic affirmation of the voters’ acceptance of the political system and of their role within it.” Indian democracy thence draws special attention; not just for its trope of being the world’s largest democracy (Indian voters make up roughly one-sixth of the world’s electorate) but for the democratic and electoral effervescence reported all across the country. While a disenchantment with democratic institutions and politics is now clearly discernible in large swathes of the so-called “West” and finds its reflection in declining voter turnouts, to the point almost where a minority of citizens elect majority governments, India experiences no such democratic fatigue. Here voter turnouts are not just consistently high, but continue to increase and now habitually outdo those of much older democracies elsewhere. And if India’s official voter turnouts are already high, they might well be a low estimate still.

  • The BJP, Ideology and Electoral Politics in Tripura Biplab Debnath Assistant Professor, Dept
    International Journal of Innovative Studies in Sociology and Humanities (IJISSH) ISSN 2456-4931 (Online) www.ijissh.org Volume: 3 Issue: 7 | July 2018 The BJP, Ideology and Electoral Politics in Tripura Biplab Debnath Assistant Professor, Dept. of Political Science, Tripura University, Tripura, India Abstract: The article examines the factors behind the expeditious rise of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in Tripura, the tiny North-eastern State of India in which the party had a negligible presence since Tripura’s emergence as state. The paper highlights the party’s political strategy in the state in successfully countering the strong left bastion at the height of its electoral presence for more than two decades. The paper however argues unlike other cases of mainland India, ideology was not a significant element in BJP’s electoral success in the case of Tripura, and therefore its future success will depend upon a fine balancing act of managing its alliance as well as effective handling of the key socio- economic determinants that lies at the heart of state politics. Keywords: Tripura, elections, BJP, CPIM, Hindutva, ideology, Marxism. In February 2018 Assemble Elections in Tripura, The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in alliance with the Indigenous Peoples Front of Tripura (IPFT) achieved an unprecedented victory over the left government of CPIM bringing curtains to their 25 years rule in the state. Following his party's stupendous achievement, in replacing what is still widely recognised as a leftist fortress in an otherwise negligible national presence, Prime Minister Narendra Modi made two notable remarks. One was the significance of the victory, even in an electorally marginal state of Tripura, for BJP's national stature.

  • Sumi Tone: a Phonological and Phonetic Description of a Tibeto-Burman Language of Nagaland
    Sumi tone: a phonological and phonetic description of a Tibeto-Burman language of Nagaland Amos Benjamin Teo Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Masters by Research (by Thesis Only) December 2009 School of Languages and Linguistics The University of Melbourne Abstract Previous research on Sumi, a Tibeto-Burman language spoken in the extreme northeast of India, has found it to have three lexical tones. However, the few phonological studies of Sumi have focused mainly on its segmental phonology and have failed to provide any substantial account of the tone system. This thesis addresses the issue by providing the first comprehensive description of tone in this language. In addition to confirming three contrastive tones, this study also presents the first acoustic phonetic analysis of Sumi, looking at the phonetic realisation of these tones and the effects of segmental perturbations on tone realisation. The first autosegmental representation of Sumi tone is offered, allowing us to account for tonal phenomena such as the assignment of surface tones to prefixes that appear to be lexically unspecified for tone. Finally, this investigation presents the first account of morphologically conditioned tone variation in Sumi, finding regular paradigmatic shifts in the tone on verb roots that undergo nominalisation. The thesis also offers a cross-linguistic comparison of the tone system of Sumi with that of other closely related Kuki-Chin-Naga languages and some preliminary observations of the historical origin and development of tone in these languages are made. This is accompanied by a typological comparison of these languages with other Tibeto-Burman languages, which shows that although these languages are spoken in what has been termed the ‘Indosphere’, their tone systems are similar to those of languages spoken further to the east in the ‘Sinosphere’.

  • Tripura Nov. 14-11-18.P65
    Introduction Since March 3, 2018, as the announcement of results for the Assembly elections in Tripura confirmed that the CPI(M)-led Left Front is being unseated from the state government by the BJP- IPFT opportunistic alliance, a wave of widespread fascistic attacks were unleashed against the CPI(M) cadres and offices by the RSS- BJP. These attacks continue even today. These attacks have many dimensions. At one level, there is an outright brutal murder of CPI(M) workers. At another level, CPI(M) offices have been burnt or forcefully captured. At yet another level, the homes of CPI(M) workers have been attacked, burnt and looted. Post the formation of the BJP-IPFT government, physical attacks on CPI(M) workers and the constant vigilance on their activities continue with the patronage of the State administration and the law and order machinery to enforce that CPI(M) workers desist from participation in any political activity. This has resulted in an unprecedented situation of terror and violence in the state. As a consequence, in the recent by-elections to local bodies, 96 per cent of the seats were won uncontested by the BJP as the opposition candidates were violently prevented from filing their nomination. Yet another level, there are attacks on CPI(M) workers and families aimed to eliminate their livelihood and to economically incapacitate them. Many such horrendous attacks on the homes of CPI(M) 1 workers take place when little children witness, traumatising them supporters. The traditional ‘jhum’ cultivators as well as rubber for life. Many families have been forced to shift from their homes plantation workers are forcibly displaced and fisheries run by Left for safety, disrupting all activities of the family and the education of Front supporters have been destroyed.
