    LANGUAGE IN INDIA Strength for Today and Bright Hope for Tomorrow Volume 12 : 7 July 2012 ISSN 1930-2940 Managing Editor: M. S. Thirumalai, Ph.D. Editors: B. Mallikarjun, Ph.D. Sam Mohanlal, Ph.D. B. A. Sharada, Ph.D. A. R. Fatihi, Ph.D. Lakhan Gusain, Ph.D. Jennifer Marie Bayer, Ph.D. S. M. Ravichandran, Ph.D. G. Baskaran, Ph.D. L. Ramamoorthy, Ph.D. Assistant Managing Editor: Swarna Thirumalai, M.A. Development and Communication for the Deprived Radheshyam Jadhav, M.A., M.J.C., Ph.D. ===================================================== Abstract The contribution deprived people make to the social, spiritual and material advancement of their nations, communities, families and the next generation sets the scene for the redefining and reconceptualising of the model of development which propels the focus from the generalized concept of development, to the development of the deprived. Certain creative individuals and communities reject traditional values and prefer / pave a new innovative path. In South Asian countries the women, religious minorities, those coming from exploited classes and castes suffering at the hands of institutionalized oppressive structures are retaliating with affirmative action to the structural oppression and developmental discontent. The development models/ paradigms that have emerged from practical life situation are innovations of the deprived and have grown mostly out of people’s participation and people’s thirst for satisfaction. The ingredients of the above models are – a sense of emotional satisfaction to have actively participated, a sense of pride evolving solutions to the problems on hand and a sense of mental and physical achievement. Development here is assumed as a popular participatory process of sustainable social, spiritual and material advancement for emancipation and empowerment.

    Bridging the Digital Divide : The Case of Nepal Wireless Mahabir Pun* Abstract Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has become a vital instrument for delivering a number of services such as education, healthcare and public services. Community wireless networks are community-centric telecommunication infrastructure developed to provide affordable communication for those who live in remote areas. This chapter discusses the role of Nepal Wireless in achieving socio economic development of rural communities by facilitating affordable Internet access. We analyze the challenges Nepal Wireless faced and articulate on the approaches it took to address those challenges such as lack of technical skills, appropriate technology and funding, difficult geographical terrains, unstable political situation, and expensive devices. In addition, we address the success and failure factors of this community-based ICT4D approach in order to guide similar endeavors. We con- clude the chapter by some suggestions for policy makers, community developers, and academicians. Keywords：ICT4D, Wireless Networks, Wi-Fi, VoIP, Digital Divide 1) Received：2013. 07. 13.
