2.Conference-APP Disaster Impact on Sundarbans
IMPACT: International Journal of Research in Applied, Natural and Social Sciences (IMPACT: IJRANSS) ISSN(P): 2347-4580; ISSN(E): 2321-8851 Special Edition, Sep 2016, 5-12 © Impact Journals DISASTER IMPACT ON SUNDARBANS - A CASE STUDY ON SIDR AFFECTED AREA MOHAMMAD ZAKIR HOSSAIN KHAN Institute of Disaster Management and Vulnerability Studies, Dhaka University, Bangladesh ABSTRACT The primary indicators of environmental sustainability is the biodiversity and its conservation stated by Kates et al. (2001), whereas the assessment of biomass and floristic diversity in tropical forests has been identified as a priority by many international organizations stated by Stork et al. (1997). Cyclone ‘Sidr’, a tropical cyclone, was one of the biggest cyclones in the history of Bangladesh, formed in the central Bay of Bengal hit the coast of Bangladesh in 2007 and it made landfall on 15th of November with peaking wind speed of over 260 km/h. It resulted in an estimated 4,000 human deaths and the displacement of over 3 million people stated by US Embassy Dhaka (2007). The most significant devastating impact it left behind is on the diversity of flora of the Sundarbans. One quarter of the biomass cover (which is approximately 2500 sq. km) of the Sundarbans mangrove forest was damaged by the storm directly or indirectly due to the tidal surge stated by CEGIS (2007). The study shows that the total forest area damaged by the cyclone Sidr was about 21% of the Sundarbans. It was found that highly affected forest areas were dominated by Keora ( Sonneratia apetala ). Trees of Keora are comparatively taller more than 15 m and grow on newly accreted forest land. -
Changing Cultural Practices Among the Rural and Urbanmising Tribe of Assam, India
IOSR Journal Of Humanities And Social Science (IOSR-JHSS) Volume 19, Issue 11, Ver. V (Nov. 2014), PP 26-31 e-ISSN: 2279-0837, p-ISSN: 2279-0845. www.iosrjournals.org Changing Cultural Practices among the Rural and UrbanMising Tribe of Assam, India 1Pahari Doley 1(Research Scholar, Gauhati University, India Abstract: The colorful life of the people, their traditional customs, festivals and dances are some of the components of the rich cultural diversity of India as well as its north-eastern region including Assam. Culture is not a static identity and keeps changing. The changing environmental development makes internal adaptation necessary for culture. Thus, a lot of changes have also been observed in the Mising culture too. The impact of urbanisation and modernization has brought a major eeconomic and socio-cultural transformation among the Mising tribe of Assam. Their society is changing not only in the aspects of socio-economic and political areas butalsointraditional beliefs andcultural practices. With the above background, an attempt has been made to understand the traditional and cultural practices among the Mising Tribe of Assam in particular and rural- urban context in general. Keywords: Mising Tribe, culture, cultural diversity, cultural Practices I. Statement Of The Problem The Misings, belonging to Tibeto-Burman ethnic group and formerly known as the Miris, which constitute the second largest scheduled tribe (Plains) group in Assam, have been playing a significant role in the culture and economy of the greater Assamese society in general and tribal society in particular. They with 5.9 lakh population (17.8 per cent of the state’s total tribal people) as per 2001 Census are mainly concentrated in the riverine areas of Dhemaji, Lakhimpur, Dibrugarh, Tinsukia, Sibsagar, Jorhat, Golaghat and Sonitpur districts of Assam. -
An Interview with Teesta Setalvad
Jindal Global Law Review https://doi.org/10.1007/s41020-020-00116-3 ARTICLE Proto‑fascism and State impunity in Majoritarian India: An Interview with Teesta Setalvad Oishik Sircar1 © O.P. Jindal Global University (JGU) 2020 Abstract This interview with Teesta Setalvad was conducted in the wake of the February 2020 anti-Muslim violence in North East Delhi. Drawing on her vast experience as a human rights activist, journalist, and peace educator, Setalvad’s responses map the continuum — across years, anti-minority pogroms and ruling parties with divergent ideologies — of the cultures of hate, and the practices of state repression and impu- nity in a proto-fascist India. Setalvad ofers an interrogation of the ideology of the Hindu right, delves into the historical trajectories of the rise of the Rashtriya Sway- amsevak Sangh (RSS) and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). She also charts the repeating patterns of police and media complicity in fomenting anti-minority hate and critically analyses the contradictory role of the criminal law and the Constitu- tion of India in both enabling and resisting communal violence. In conclusion, she ofers hopeful strategies for keeping alive the promise of secularism. Keywords State impunity · Hindutva · Gujarat 2002 · Pogrom · Genocide 1 Introduction The cover of Teesta Setalvad’s memoir — Foot Soldier of the Constitution — features a photograph of her looking directly into the eyes of the reader.1 Her face is partly lit and lightly silhouetted, her eyes simultaneously conveying an invitation and a provocation. One might use words like determination, courage and fortitude to describe the expres- sion on her face — as the blurb on the back cover of the book does. -

Chapter 1 Introduction Main Report CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION
CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION Main Report Chapter 1 Introduction Main Report CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background of the Study The Peoples Republic of Bangladesh has a population of 123 million (as of June 1996) and a per capita GDP (Fiscal Year 1994/1995) of US$ 235.00. Of the 48 nations categorized as LLDC, Bangladesh is the most heavily populated. Even after gaining independence, the nation repeatedly suffers from floods, cyclones, etc.; 1/3 of the nation is inundated every year. Shortage in almost all sectors (e.g. development funds, infrastructure, human resources, natural resources, etc.) also leaves both urban and rural regions very underdeveloped. The supply of safe drinking water is an issue of significant importance to Bangladesh. Since its independence, the majority of the population use surface water (rivers, ponds, etc.) leading to rampancy in water-borne diseases. The combined efforts of UNICEF, WHO, donor countries and the government resulted in the construction of wells. At present, 95% of the national population depend on groundwater for their drinking water supply, consequently leading to the decline in the mortality rate caused by contagious diseases. This condition, however, was reversed in 1990 by problems concerning contamination brought about by high levels of arsenic detected in groundwater resources. Groundwater contamination by high arsenic levels was officially announced in 1993. In 1994, this was confirmed in the northwestern province of Nawabganji where arsenic poisoning was detected. In the province of Bengal, in the western region of the neighboring nation, India, groundwater contamination due to high arsenic levels has been a problem since the 1980s. -
The Matua Religious Movement of the 19 and 20
A DOWNTRODDEN SECT AND URGE FOR HUMAN DEVELOPMENT: THE MATUA RELIGIOUS MOVEMENT OF THE 19th AND 20th CENTURY BENGAL, INDIA Manosanta Biswas Santipur College, Kalyani University, Nadia , West Bengal India [email protected] Keywords : Bengal, Caste, Namasudra, Matua Introduction: Anthropologists and Social historians have considered the caste system to be the most unique feature of Indian social organization. The Hindu religious scriptures like Vedas, Puranas, and Smritishatras have recognized caste system which is nonetheless an unequal institution. As per purush hymn, depicted in Rig Veda, the almighty God, the creator of the universe, the Brahma,createdBrahmin from His mouth, Khastriya(the warrior class) from His two hands, Vaishya (the trader class) from His thigh and He created Sudra from His legs.1Among the caste divided Hindus, the Brahmins enjoyed the upper strata of the society and they were entitled to be the religious preacher and teacher of Veda, the Khastriyas were entrusted to govern the state and were apt in the art of warfare, the Vaishyas were mainly in the profession of trading and also in the medical profession, the sudras were at the bottom among the four classes and they were destined to be the servant of the other three classes viz the Brahmins, Khastriya and the Vaishya. The Brahmin priest used to preside over the social and religious festivities of the three classes except that of the Sudras. On the later Vedic period (1000-600 B.C) due to strict imposition of the caste system and intra-caste marriage, the position of different castes became almost hereditary.Marriages made according to the rules of the scriptures were called ‘Anulom Vivaha’ and those held against the intervention of the scriptures were called ‘Pratilom Vivaha’. -
Violence Against Women in Ethnic Riots an Interpretive Exercise Based on Anti-Muslim Riots in Gujarat, 2002 and Uttar-Pradesh, 2013 in India
Violence Against Women in Ethnic Riots An Interpretive Exercise Based on Anti-Muslim Riots in Gujarat, 2002 and Uttar-Pradesh, 2013 in India By Misha Maitreyi Submitted to the Central European University Department of Political Science In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Supervisor: Professor Lea Sgier Budapest, Hungary June 2017 CEU eTD Collection Abstract This thesis attempts to conduct a study of communal riots of Gujarat (2002) and Uttar Pradesh (2013) through an interpretive lens. The research focuses on violence against women in these Hindu-Muslim riots in India and presents the cases of communal violence in the broader context of Indian politics. With the study of the existing literature, it presents a detailed description of the riots, followed by a discussion on the elements of complicit political forces and commonality of gender violence. It looks at gender violence through the lens of physical and symbolic violence perpetrated against women. Moreover, it attempts to develop an understanding of the riots through the perspective of hidden political motivations beneath it. Finally, the thesis places these riots within the larger Indian political context by discussing the political history of the country, arguing that competitive electoral democracy was not present since the formation of independent India in 1947. Rather, it evolved in the 1970s-1980s with the weakening of the oldest political party, Congress Party and the rise of Mandal-Mandir agitations. The thesis also locates the rise of Hindutva politics of BJP in that period and how it has strengthened till now in context of communal riots in the country. -
