Introduction: Raiganj University is a State University came into being on 3rd February 2015 by the Raiganj University Act (West Bengal Act XXVI of 20l4) which was passed in the West Bengal Legislative Assembly. It is located in Raiganj Sub-Division, which happens to be the Distrcit Head Quarters of Uttar Dinajpur. The Raiganj University is unique on many counts. Fisrtly, this University has been develoved by upgrading an aided under- gradaute college namely ―Raiganj College (University College)‖ into a University. Secondly, it is the fisrt Unitary University in North Bengal which offers both under-gradaute and post- graduate courses from its own campus, although there is a provision of affiliation of neighbouring under-gradaute colleges. Thirdly, this University also offers General Courses at the under-graduate level. In a way, the Raiganj University is a unique experiment in the Higher Education scenario of West Bengal because an aided college endowed with the resources only compatible with the under-gradaute level of education has been upgraded to a Post-Graduate Institution.

  • Secularism and Indian Politics: a Study of Political Attitudes and Participation of Muslims in the District of Murshidabad (1978-2012)
    SECULARISM AND INDIAN POLITICS: A STUDY OF POLITICAL ATTITUDES AND PARTICIPATION OF MUSLIMS IN THE DISTRICT OF MURSHIDABAD (1978-2012) A Thesis Submitted to the University of North Bengal For the Award of Doctor of Philosophy In Department of Political Science By Krishna Roy Supervisor Dr. Maya Ghosh Professor Department of Political Science University of North Bengal DEPARTMENT OF POLITICAL SCIENCE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH BENGAL August, 2018 SECULARISM AND INDIAN POLITICS: A STUDY OF POLITICAL ATTITUDES AND PARTICIPATION OF MUSLIMS IN THE DISTRICT OF MURSHIDABAD (1978-2012) Abstract Title: - Secularism and Indian Politics: A Study of Political Attitudes and Participation of Muslims in the District of Murshidabad (1978-2012) The present research deals in studying political attitudes and participation of Muslims in the district of Murshidabad. The researcher chooses the district of Murshidabad as one of the district with majority of Muslim population. It was once the political capital of Bengal and also its commercial hub. After partition Murshidabad was expected to go to Pakistan, if the two nation theory was applied when determining its position. However, the Radcliff Award gave Murshidabad, with its Muslim majority of 56% somewhat unexpectedly for the inhabitants of the districts to India. So the Muslims of Murshidabad had to stay back and adjust their lives with the emerging new nation. Hence staying in India and adjusting their life with their Hindu compatriots or crossing the border, both the cases pointed out the intensions of the Muslim – whether the community possesses anti-national feelings or a pro- secular character. Due to lack of written sources the intentions of the ordinary people cannot be inferred.

Introduction The history of Bengali Muslim society as traced is seen as static1 and increasingly sterile reaffirmation of the „basic contradictions‟ and „inherent ambiguities‟ between true Islam and the Bengali reality. Bengali Muslim was portrayed as victims perpetually trapped in a dilemma of identity forever between their (irreconcilable) Bengaliness2 and Muslimness. Rafiuddin Ahmed, in his enormously influential and learned study of the Bengali Muslims, actually insists that „a Bengali identity was in no way inconsistent with their faith in Islam‟. Rafiuddin Ahmed writes that „Bengal, particularly the low lying districts of eastern and southern Bengal where Islam found most of its adherents has been a peasant society for the whole of her recorded history and agriculture has provided the foundations of the region‟s distinctive3 culture.
