Odisha District Gazetteers Nabarangpur
ODISHA DISTRICT GAZETTEERS NABARANGPUR GOPABANDHU ACADEMY OF ADMINISTRATION [GAZETTEERS UNIT] GENERAL ADMINISTRATION DEPARTMENT GOVERNMENT OF ODISHA ODISHA DISTRICT GAZETTEERS NABARANGPUR DR. TARADATT, IAS CHIEF EDITOR, GAZETTEERS & DIRECTOR GENERAL, TRAINING COORDINATION GOPABANDHU ACADEMY OF ADMINISTRATION [GAZETTEERS UNIT] GENERAL ADMINISTRATION DEPARTMENT GOVERNMENT OF ODISHA ii iii PREFACE The Gazetteer is an authoritative document that describes a District in all its hues–the economy, society, political and administrative setup, its history, geography, climate and natural phenomena, biodiversity and natural resource endowments. It highlights key developments over time in all such facets, whilst serving as a placeholder for the timelessness of its unique culture and ethos. It permits viewing a District beyond the prismatic image of a geographical or administrative unit, since the Gazetteer holistically captures its socio-cultural diversity, traditions, and practices, the creative contributions and industriousness of its people and luminaries, and builds on the economic, commercial and social interplay with the rest of the State and the country at large. The document which is a centrepiece of the District, is developed and brought out by the State administration with the cooperation and contributions of all concerned. Its purpose is to generate awareness, public consciousness, spirit of cooperation, pride in contribution to the development of a District, and to serve multifarious interests and address concerns of the people of a District and others in any way concerned. Historically, the ―Imperial Gazetteers‖ were prepared by Colonial administrators for the six Districts of the then Orissa, namely, Angul, Balasore, Cuttack, Koraput, Puri, and Sambalpur. After Independence, the Scheme for compilation of District Gazetteers devolved from the Central Sector to the State Sector in 1957. -

Remoteness and Chronic Poverty in a Forest Region of Southern Orissa: a Tale of Entitlement Failure and State’S Apathy
Remoteness and Chronic Poverty in a forest region of Southern Orissa: A Tale of Entitlement Failure and State’s Apathy Amita Shah Saroj Kumar Nayak Bipin Das Working Paper 34 WORKINGPAPER -IIPA Chronic Poverty Indian Institute of Research Centre Public Administration CPRC Abstract The recent round of poverty estimates, placing Orissa as the poorest state in India, has pressed an alarm bell among planners, practitioners and also international donors. This, in turn, has triggered a sense of urgency for salvaging the situation of chronic poverty, where the central thrust is on expediting growth. Agricultural growth occupies a special significance in this approach since the sector, of late, has demonstrated direct and significant impact on poverty reduction across states, including some of the high-poverty states in the country. While the need to foster growth, particularly, agricultural growth can hardly be over emphasized, what appears to be missing in the emerging perspective on linkages between growth and poverty reduction is integration with one of the most critical segments, i.e. the forest based economy, in the state. The segment has special significance not only in terms of its contribution to the states, revenue but also in terms of supporting poors’ livelihood besides rendering environmental services that are often realized beyond the state boundaries. Generating a better understanding of dynamics of forest and development thus, is important for facilitating a shift in the policy perspective within the state. This paper seeks to examine the extent, nature and structural factors (social, physical and legal) leading to poverty in southern region of Orissa, which has a dubious distinction of having the highest incidence of poverty among rural regions in India. -

CENSUS OF INDIA, 1971 SERIES 16 ORISSA PART X DISTRICT CENSUS HANDBOO~ PART A-TOWN AND VILLAGE DIRECTORY BOLANGIR B. TRIPATHI of- the Indian Administrative Service Director Df Census Operations, Orissa CENSUS OF INDIA, 1971 DISTRICT CENSUS HA-NDBOOK PART A-TOWN AND VILLAGE DIRECTORY BOLA_NGIR PREFACE The District Census Handbook first introduced.as an ancillary to 1951 Census appeared as a State. Government publication in a more elaborate and ambitious form in 1961 Census. It was divided into 3 parts: Part] gave a narrative account of each District; Part 1I contained various Census Tables and a ~eries of Primary Census data relating to each village and town ; and Part III presented certain administrative statistics obtained from Government Departments. These parts further enriched by inclusion of maps of the district and of police stations within the district were together -brought out in ODe volume. The Handbook, for each one of the 13 Districts of the State was acknowledged to be highly useful. 2. But the purpose and utility of this valuable compilation somewhat suffered on account of the time lag that intervened between the conclusion of Census and the publication of the Handbook. The delay was unavoidable in the sense that the Handbook-complete with all the constituent parts brought together in one volume had necessarily<to wait till after completion of the processing and tabulation of Gensus data and collection and compilation of a large array of administrative and other statistics. 3. With the object of cutting out the delay, and also_ to making each volume handy and not-too-bulky it has been decided to bring out the 1971 District Census Handbook in three parts separately with the data becoming available from stage to stage as briefly indicated below : Part A-This part will incorporate the Town Directory and the Village Directory for each district. -

However, there is a general paucity in the literary discourse about the Bengal experience of the partition and its concomitant “refugee problem”. This paper will engage in Walter Benjamin‟s conception of historical materialism, memory studies and testimony to investigate the function of literature in archiving the testimonies of the subaltern refugee characters: their dislocation, relocation and the ultimate betrayal . I will critically analyse the role 263| P a g e Lapis Lazuli An International Literary Journal of literature and the ethics surrounding these fictive testimonies in Amitav Ghosh‟s The Hungry Tide (2004) and Sunil Gangopadhyay‟s Arjun (1971) to delineate the waves of refugee exodus and argue that these novels offer us a subaltern narrative to unearth the suppressed reality of the refugee existence, the state apathy and the Morichjhanpi massacre. Key words: Witnessing, Memory, Testimony, Historical Materialism, Bengal Partition, Morichjhanpi Massacre. ______________________________________________________________________________
