  • Bengal-Bangladesh Border and Women
    The Bengal-Bangladesh Borderland: Chronicles from Nadia, Murshidabad and Malda 1 Paula Banerjee Introduction Borderland studies, particularly in the context of South Asia are a fairly recent phenomenon. I can think of three works that have made borderlands, particularly the Bengal-Bangladesh borderland as the focal area of their study in the last one decade. Ranabir Samaddar’s The Marginal Nation: Transborder Migration From Bangladesh to West Bengal started a trend that was continued by Willem Van Schendel in his The Bengal Borderland: Beyond State and Nation in South Asia . Both these books argue that the border is part of larger zone or the borderland that at once constructs and subverts the nation. Samaddar goes beyond the security and immutable border discourse and problematises the borderland by speaking of flows across the border. He argues that such flows are prompted by historical and social affinities, geographical contiguity and economic imperative. People move when their survival is threatened and rigid borders mean little to the desperate. They question the nation form that challenges their existence. If need be they find illegal ways to tackle any obstacle that stand in their path of moving particularly when that makes the difference between life and death. Thereby Samaddar questions ideas of nation state and national security in present day South Asia when and if it privileges land over the people who inhabit that land. Van Schendel also takes the argument along similar lines by stating that without understanding the borderland it is impossible to understand the nation form that develops in South Asia, the economy that emerges or the ways in which national identities are internalized.

  • India-Bangladesh Trade Resumes Through Petrapole
    India-Bangladesh trade resumes through Petrapole Deadlock lifted after the West Bengal government permits vehicles to come in Both the sides agreed to take precautions on Covid-19 Abhishek Law Kolkata, July 5 India-Bangladesh trade saw a partial resumption at Petrapole — the largest land port in Asia — on Sunday evening after the West Bengal government allowed vehicles from the neighbouring country to come into the State. Five trucks carrying garments came in from Benapole (on the Bangladesh side), while a similar number of vehicles carrying fish from the southern States was allowed into Bangladesh, said sources. Trade affected Trade at this gateway had come to a standstill from July 1 onwards after a section of stakeholders in Bangladesh objected to the West Bengal government disallowing movement of trucks from Benapole to Petrapole. The State government had been concerned about the spread of Covid-19 into the border villages. Bangladesh on its part has claimed that Benapole was a green zone with no Covid cases there. Following the stoppage of trade, some 700-800 odd trucks had been stuck on the Indian side, while another 500 vehicles were waiting on the Bangladesh side. A number of trucks had been diverted to the nearby land port of Gojadanga to avoid congestion there. Bilateral trade Petrapole, located 100 kms from the city, in the North 24 Paraganas district, accounts for nearly 47 per cent of the $11 billion India-Bangladesh bilateral trade. “Truck movements have resumed with both sides agreeing to follow certain standard operating procedures. We hope that things will normalise over the next one to two days,” Karthik Chakraborty, Secretary, Petrapole Clearing Agents’ Staff Welfare Association told BusinessLine.

  • Pattern of International Trade Through West Bengal: Some Evidence from Port-Level Data
    INDIAN INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT CALCUTTA WORKING PAPER SERIES WPS No. 737/ November 2013 Pattern of International Trade through West Bengal: Some Evidence from Port-Level Data by Parthapratim Pal Assistant Professor, IIM Calcutta, Diamond Harbour Road, Joka P.O., Kolkata 700 104 Pattern of International Trade through West Bengal: Some Evidence from Port-Level Data Parthapratim Pal1 I. Introduction West Bengal has a long international border and it occupies an important strategic location in the eastern part of India. Locational advantages suggest that it should play a crucial role in India’s pursuit for increased trade with other Asian countries. As West Bengal is close to Bangladesh, Myanmar, Thailand and a number of other East and South East Asian countries, it has the potential to become a gateway for India’s ‘Look East Policy’. State level export data published in the Economic Survey 2011-12 show that by total volume of exports, West Bengal rank 8th among the top 15 exporting states of India in 2010-11 (Table 1). Moreover, by Exports to State Domestic Product (SDP) ratio, West Bengal ranks 15th and 13th respectively in 2009-10 and 2010-11 among the top 15 exporting states of India. Port specific trade data show that relative importance of exports through the ports of West Bengal is declining in India’s total exports. For example, in 2003-04 exports through the ports of West Bengal accounted for more than 6 percent of India’s total exports. But the same share declined to around 3.4 percent in 2009-10 before recovering to just above 4 percent in 2012-13.
