We know that only in the whole-hearted recognition and acknowledgement of Jesus as the Lord and Saviour, lies victory and healing. Walk along with us through this Prayer digest. We'll pray together and seek His counsel. General Secretary Reflections: GOD'S WORK, IN GOD'S TIME, IN GOD'S WAY (A response to Covid 19) We thank the Lord for His abounding love, for it endures forever. Even in this state of lockdowns and health emergencies due to the spread of 'Corona Virus', GOD is always faithful and true to protect and care for us. When the lockdown was announced in India, one of the passages that flashed across my mind was the prayer of Jehoshaphat, “For we have no power to face this vast army that is attacking us. We do not know what to do, but our eyes are on you.” 2 Chronicles 20:12. This passage made me to focus on the following five areas to pray and discuss with my National Leadership Team, as the Lord put it in my heart. It was the time, we worked on a questionnaire titled 'God's work, in God's time, in God's way', to pray and get input to move forward in the lockdown season. In fact, it is a prayer too. 1. Spiritual Stability (2 Chron 20: 1-13): Jehoshaphat became the fourth King of the separated kingdom of Judah around 850 to 875 BC, at the age of thirty-five and reigned for twenty-five years. "Jehoshaphat sought the Lord with all his heart" (2 Chr. 22:9). As war clouds gathered around him (2 Chron 20:1), Jehoshaphat was afraid. In this crisis situation, he sought God before taking any step. He rallied the nation for prayer and encouraged the people to trust God in the face of this overwhelming crisis. He realized the helpless situation they were in and called people to remember who God is (v.6), what He did in the past (v.7) and what He said He would do in the future (vv. 8-9). The entire family including children were part of this spiritual exercise (v 13). We gain spiritual stability and inner confidence as we trust and keep our eyes on Him by faith (v12). May this lockdown be an experience of silence, strengthening relationships in all aspects, and seeking God's forgiveness, to us. 2. Ministry Continuity (2 Chron 20:14-19): Th prophet asserts in v. 15, 'The battle belongs to the Lord.” So is God's ministry!In the midst of all the confusion, listening to the Holy Spirit is vital. We need to move on seeking new direction from God. He may ask us to change our strategies. The Mission and the battle belong to God. In this season, we should not fall into guilt feeling that we are not doing what we did in the past. We should know what God wants to tell the Nations, Churches, Missionary Movements and Christian Institutions. We should continue to do God's will till His coming. Let us trust the Lord of creativity, to make ministry continue in new paths. May - June 2020 3 3. Resource Sustainability (2 Chron 20:20 – 23): The call in the crisis is, 'Believe in the Lord your God and you will be established'(v20). In a crisis, challenges are plenty, like sustaining ongoing work, meeting people's needs, fulfilling the vision etc. The resources are God's word, prayer, personnel with God-given finances. Our suitability is established in our dependency upon God. The Lord was with Jehoshaphat and established the kingdom under His control; and all Judah brought gifts to Jehoshaphat, so that he had great wealth and honour. (2 Chro 17:3-5). The blessing is experienced by our being with God and moving forward with instruction from God. Relying upon God brings rest, peace and allowing God to work, causing us to be spectators of His grace. In all circumstances my prayer is, 'Lord, you be the coordinator.' He is faithful. 4. Social Responsibility (2 Chron 19:4-11): Jehoshaphat brought people back to God and set the ball rolling. He was sensitive to the needs around and motivated solidarity with the suffering. We need to initiate measures to meet the needs of the people around us as written in Micah 6.8 'to show justice, constant love, and to live in humble fellowship with God.' COVID 19 has given us an opportunity to engage in relief work and listen to the day to day struggles of people. As Christians, let us help in transforming the social, economic, and political life of the society. 5. Members' Safety (2 Chron 20:29 – 30):The fear of God came on all the surrounding kingdoms when they heard how the Lord had fought against the enemies of Israel. And the kingdom of Jehoshaphat was at peace, for his God had given him rest on every side. 2 Chron 2:29:30. The borders became safe. There was a nation-wide celebration. The word peace and rest are the indication of security where God over rules impossible situations. As this magazine is committed for prayer, let us keep these areas as our concerns and pray. Shining IEM Hostel Child in COVID -19: Mrs. Thati Nagalaxmi (Miriam) is our former hosteler in Jagannathapuram, Koya field, Telangana. She serves as a Teacher in Anganwadi, (Day Care Centre) dedicated to serve the children and their parents. Due to the lockdown, she is now assigned to take the census of pregnant women and children up to 6 years old in the Koya and Gothi-Koya (settlers) villages. Barefooted, she takes her assistant (cook) and carries the groceries to cook and give nutritious food to children and pregnant women. Her immediate officer observed her service and informed the concerned higher Government authorities. Her sincerity was published in the local newspaper. The local leaders and the son of the Chief Minister tweeted appreciation to her. She told our missionary Rev. John 4 May - June 2020 Douglas, 'I am only doing what I have learnt as a Christian believer and "Service" has become my lifestyle.' Several of the former hostel children of Koya field are into Government service and have proved to be faithful in their service. They are playing a key role in the Koya church too! Postponement of MFC: The scheduled Missionaries' Family Conference (MFC) from 31 May to 4 June 2020 in the Karunya University Campus in Coimbatore is postponed due to the prevalent restrictions in our country. Lord willing, we will have it in the next year. I express my appreciation to the Chairman of the Steering Committee Rev. Jacob Ravi Kumar, the Treasurer Rev. Ebenezer Mani, and Rev. Edwin and Mrs. Getzi for their leadership, along with our IEM Church Ministry Team in Tamil Nadu. We thank God for the committed local pastors and supporters in the committee. National Convention 2020: Our National Convention is planned from 1- 4 October 2020 in the Nongthymmai Presbyterian Church, Meghalaya. Kindly pray for the Steering Committee and the host church.

  • State Denial, Local Controversies and Everyday Resistance Among the Santal in Bangladesh
    The Issue of Identity: State Denial, Local Controversies and Everyday Resistance among the Santal in Bangladesh PhD Dissertation to attain the title of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) Submitted to the Faculty of Philosophische Fakultät I: Sozialwissenschaften und historische Kulturwissenschaften Institut für Ethnologie und Philosophie Seminar für Ethnologie Martin-Luther-University Halle-Wittenberg This thesis presented and defended in public on 21 January 2020 at 13.00 hours By Farhat Jahan February 2020 Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Burkhard Schnepel Reviewers: Prof. Dr. Burkhard Schnepel Prof. Dr. Carmen Brandt Assessment Committee: Prof. Dr. Carmen Brandt Prof. Dr. Kirsten Endres Prof. Dr. Rahul Peter Das To my parents Noor Afshan Khatoon and Ghulam Hossain Siddiqui Who transitioned from this earth but taught me to find treasure in the trivial matters of life. Abstract The aim of this thesis is to trace transformations among the Santal of Bangladesh. To scrutinize these transformations, the hegemonic power exercised over the Santal and their struggle to construct a Santal identity are comprehensively examined in this thesis. The research locations were multi-sited and employed qualitative methodology based on fifteen months of ethnographic research in 2014 and 2015 among the Santal, one of the indigenous groups living in the plains of north-west Bangladesh. To speculate over the transitions among the Santal, this thesis investigates the impact of external forces upon them, which includes the epochal events of colonization and decolonization, and profound correlated effects from evangelization or proselytization. The later emergence of the nationalist state of Bangladesh contained a legacy of hegemony allowing the Santal to continue to be dominated.

  • A Study of the Chakma Refugees in Mizoram Suparna Nandy Kar Ph.D
    THE INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF HUMANITIES & SOCIAL STUDIES ISSN 2321 - 9203 www.theijhss.com THE INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF HUMANITIES & SOCIAL STUDIES Migration and Displacement Refugee Crisis: A Study of the Chakma Refugees in Mizoram Suparna Nandy Kar Ph.D. Scholar, Diphu Campus, Assam University, Assam Dr. K.C. Das Associate Professor, Diphu Campus, Assam University, Assam Abstract: The Chakmas constitute one of the ethnic groups of the Chittagong Hill Tracts (C H T’s), where 98 percent of the inhabitants of the hill region are the indigenous people of Mongoloid stock until the Muslim infiltrators swamped over the area. The Chakma ethnic groups are the most dominant and important tribe. They are Buddhist by faith. According to Encyclopaedia of South Asian Tribes Chakmas have descended from King Avirath of the Sakya dynasty. They belong to a tribal clan of the Tibe to - Burman race and came to the area when Burmans destroyed the Arakan Kingdom. Arakanese dissidents who were against the Burmese administration took shelter as refugees in the Chittagong Hill Tracts. After the partition of the country the C H T was annexed to Pakistan .Some of them stood against the policy of the Government of Pakistan because they were suppressed and many of them had to cross the border and enter into India and Burma for the protection of their lives and family. Later on , Pakistan Government took the policy of setting up of a Hydro Electric Project over the river Karnaphuli in the C H T. The high water level of Kaptai Hydro Electric Project inundated a vast Chakma inhabited area.

Tel: 4253195, 4246452 Email: [email protected] + + Preface Consortium of South Asian Think-tanks (COSATT) brings to you another publication on a critical theme of the contemporary world with special focus on South Asia. Both the issues of refugees and migration has hit the headlines the world-over this past year and it is likely that nation states in the foreseeable future will keep facing the impact of mass movement of people fleeing persecution or war across international borders. COSATT is a network of some of the prominent think-tanks of South Asia and each year we select topics that are of special significance for the countries of the region. In the previous years, we have delved in detail on themes such as terrorism, connectivity, deeper integration and the environment. In the year 2016, it was agreed by all COSATT member institutions that the issue of refugees and migration highlighting the interlinkages between individual and societal aspirations, reasons and background of the cause of migration and refugee generation and the role of state and non-state agencies involved would be studied and analyzed in depth. It hardly needs any elaboration that South Asia has been both the refugee generating and refugee hosting region for a long time. South Asian migrants have formed some of the most advanced and prosperous diasporas in the West.

Focussing primarily on research with the Chakma people of Chittagong Hill Tracts(CHT), it recounts the complex role of legal pluralism in sustaining communities as political units in the postcolonial state, exploring how law’s framing narratives produce different iterations of communitarian legal practice ostensibly within the same postcolonial legal form. This exploration uses a conceptual frame of ‘critical communitarianism’, which draws specific attention to the parallels between political identity and legal culture, and community and legal mobilisation within a legally plural setting.
