Bhattacharya Learning to Serve Administrative Training Institute Government of West Bengal Page 4 of 4 Block FC, Bidhannagar (Salt Lake) Kolkata-700106 Page 5 of 5 PREFACE New entrants to the Indian Administrative Service and the West Bengal Civil Service (Executive) have to maintain a Training Diary as part of their district training. While supervising their work in the districts, the ATI faculty has found that in the majority of cases the probationers do not maintain their diaries properly, although these are intended to be records of the details of the training they undergo so that superior officers can check whether they have assimilated the proper lessons from the exposure in the field. During interactions with their Counsellors in the ATI, the trainees have complained that they are handicapped by not having an example to follow. A similar handicap has been reported regarding writing reports of enquiries assigned to probationers in the district. In view of this feedback, the ATI is publishing the diary I maintained in detail as probationer in Malda in 1972, trusting that it will provide civil service probationers with an example of how a training diary can be maintained. We were supposed to send the National Academy of Administration an official training diary and also maintain a personal one.

  • The Bengalis: a Thousand Years
    Bengalis Thousand Years 8670/ 021116 The BengAlis: A ThousAnd YeArs Jawhar Sircar The last few days of a century that also happen to be at the end of a whole millennium, are bound to stir a strange excitement in even the most placid person. The two most expected feelings that hold their sway can perhaps be summarized as: introspection and expectation — drawing a balance sheet of the past as also trying to gauge what the future holds. Such an exercise can cover not only a single person or his immediate concerns; it may as well cover his locality, his state or nation and may be stretched to entire humanity. The constraints of my acquaintance and knowledge hardly qualify me to scan any group higher or bigger than my own people: the Bengalis. Even in this, my limitations now plague me more than my enthusiasm to try out such a review — but these notwithstanding; the sheer thrill of initiating an animated adda on the subject overpowers me. At the beginning, let me make it clear that I do not have the audacity to try to cover a thousand years in just a few pages: hence I will concentrate only on certain significant periods or issues, for the sake of presenting a viewpoint. So let us begin: are the Bengalis a thousand years old? Or even more? Historians tell us about our history during the Pala- Sena period, which would give us about 1250 years to be proud of, but if we include the great Sasanka, we could be share-holders in a great concern that goes back fourteen centuries.

    Sarkar 39 Chapter-Ill A Brief History of urbanization of the District of Maida till its formation: The district Maida has a long history of urbanization and contains various capital and commercial cities of historical importance (like Lakhnauti, Gour, Pandua, Maida, Enlish Bazar etc). A treasure o f archeological records o f ancient and medieval India and the literary evidences le fl by the different Muslim historians in the successive period of Muslim conquest and the foreign traveler's accounts, leave no room fo r doubt about the glorious past of urban development of this region. Ancient and medieval capital-city like Lakhnauti, Gour and Pandua has been extensively documented and reflected in different sources. Different survey and settlement reports of British India, Imperial, Provincial and district gazetteer, different administrative report preserved in the national and state archives, through a fresh light on the process of urbanization of the district. A good number of local writings also help us to reconstruct the history o f urbanization of the di strict. In fact the di strict of Maida and its surrounding area was the most urbanized region in Bengal in hi storical times. The growth of urban center in various parts of the di strict was not an accidental and it is also difficult to identify a sing le autonomous causative factor behind the process of urbanization to this region.

  • The Rise of Islam and the Bengal Frontier, 1204–1760
    The Rise of Islam and the Bengal Frontier, 1204–1760 Richard M. Eaton UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA PRESS Berkeley · Los Angeles · London © 1993 The Regents of the University of California Acknowledgments I am deeply grateful to the many people who over the past decade or so have given me valuable assistance during the various stages of preparing the present work. The idea of the book took shape in early 1980, when I was a fellow at the National Humanities Center at Research Triangle Park, North Carolina. In fall 1981 and spring 1982 a fellowship with the American Institute of Indian Studies and a Fulbright-Hays Training Grant, administered through the American Cultural Center in Dhaka, enabled me to undertake exploratory field research in India and Bangladesh. Thanks to a University of Arizona Humanities grant, in fall 1984 I returned to Bangladesh for more research, and in spring 1985 I began analyzing data while a fellow with the Institute for Advanced Studies in Jerusalem. In spring 1987 I was able to work on the manuscript while at the Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales, Paris, and a sabbatical leave of absence from the University of Arizona in 1988–89 enabled me to complete the bulk of the writing. For funding my travel, facilitating my support, and opening the doors of my research generally, I wish to thank all the then directors and officers of the above institutions—in particular P. R. Mehendiratta and Tarun Mitra of the American Institute of Indian Studies, Ahmed Mustafa of the American Cultural Center, William Bennett of the National Humanities Center, Nehemia Levtzion of the Institute for Advanced Studies, and Marc Gaborieau of the Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales.

Despite regional variation in local design histories, we can perceive certain uniformity in the architecture and planning of sultanate cities across the Indian sub-continent. In this Unit, eight Sultanate cities that emerged at regional centres of power and were conceptualised in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries are considered, from across different parts of India. After Muhammad bin Tughlaq’s reign, most of his territories rebelled and declared independence from the empire that he had tried to consolidate. The sultanates of Bengal (1342-1576), Deccan (Bahmani: 1347-1518), Khandesh (1382-1601), Malwa (1392- 1562), Gujarat (1391-1583), Jaunpur (1394-1479), along with the kingdom of Vijayanagara (1336-1565) were all the successor kingdoms to the Khalji-Tughlaq empire. Various other local chieftains and subdued kings also declared their independence in this period. As all these successor states sought to consolidate their own kingdoms, they established new capitals, sometimes on the sites of earlier settlements, but with completely new paradigms of architecture and planning, in part rooted in local custom, but also derived from new ideas ushered in by the Delhi sultanate.
