The report focusses on the people and their wellbeing in this region, spread across 13 districts in the States of Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh. The Bundelkhand region, rich in mineral resources and vegetation, but inflicted by vagaries of nature and anthropogenic factors, demonstrates low human development achievement, with limited access to good quality health services, education and employment opportunities. The report attempts to document the developmental impediments in these thirteen districts (across Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh), that have been challenged by multiple factors like periodic drought, fragmented landholdings, feudal mind-sets, decline in water available for irrigation, low investment and low technological inputs in agriculture, industries, etc. Despite these adversities, the Bundelkhand region holds opportunities and possibility for steady growth through innovative Tourism policy supported by strong infrastructure and connectivity; modernisation of agriculture reinforced by better water management system and technology; and above all, sustained through strong financial and institutional setups. Strategic interventions, that address the aspirations of the youth of the region, also need to be integrated into the policy and planning process. The Bundelkhand Human Development Report is a concerted effort of NITI Aayog, the State Governments of Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh, and UNDP. This report has been prepared with the hope that it would serve as a guide for development planning of this region, so as to achieve higher human development goals.

Bundelkhand, located in the heartland of the country possesses immense potential that can harness benefits from holistic and comprehensive planning process. It is heartening to see that the State Governments of Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh have both demonstrated their commitment to growth and progress in this region, comprising 13 districts. Despite this, a lot is to be achieved to ensure the wellbeing of the people in this region to attain higher human development goals. Ensuring basic services, strengthening agriculture and industries, skill development of the youth and tourism would enable the region to bring higher living standards to all. 3. The Report, therefore, calls for enduring commitments and for ensuring sustainable growth of the region and the people. It is hoped that the recommendations in the report will enable the region to achieve its full growth potential and also allow better implementation of the welfare programmes and schemes.

Sangraa Singh alias Sanga, born to Jaivanta Bai on Tuesday» April 14* 14^ A.B.^ » was the third son of Hana Raiiaal* Nothing is known about his childhood though i t is safe to presume that normal martial training, a necessair equipaient of a prince-royal in the mediaeval times, v/ould not hare been denied to him; and that martial k skill which ch^terised all the sons 2 of Raimal , would have adorned the personality of young Sanga as well. We first hear of him when Prithviraj and Jaimal challenged the(^verdicts )or the astrologer and the priestess-oracle of Bhimal about the future succession of Sanga to the throne of Ghittor after the death of Raimal through their attempts on the life of Sanga. The War of Succession (150$-6 A .D .) and the period following:, the return of Sanga to Mewar to administer the state on behalf of his father schooled him in the ytays of the world and statecraft. The period preceeding the death o f Raimal proved further fateful to him by manoeinrring events to bless the beginning of the reign of Sanga with a victory over the forces of Sikandar Lodi.

  • Killer Khilats, Part 1: Legends of Poisoned ªrobes of Honourº in India

    Killer Khilats, Part 1: Legends of Poisoned ªrobes of Honourº in India

    Folklore 112 (2001):23± 45 RESEARCH ARTICLE Killer Khilats, Part 1: Legends of Poisoned ªRobes of Honourº in India Michelle Maskiell and Adrienne Mayor Abstract This article presents seven historical legends of death by Poison Dress that arose in early modern India. The tales revolve around fears of symbolic harm and real contamination aroused by the ancient Iranian-in¯ uenced customs of presenting robes of honour (khilats) to friends and enemies. From 1600 to the early twentieth century, Rajputs, Mughals, British, and other groups in India participated in the development of tales of deadly clothing. Many of the motifs and themes are analogous to Poison Dress legends found in the Bible, Greek myth and Arthurian legend, and to modern versions, but all seven tales display distinc- tively Indian characteristics. The historical settings reveal the cultural assump- tions of the various groups who performed poison khilat legends in India and display the ambiguities embedded in the khilat system for all who performed these tales. Introduction We have gathered seven ª Poison Dressº legends set in early modern India, which feature a poison khilat (Arabic, ª robe of honourº ). These ª Killer Khilatº tales share plots, themes and motifs with the ª Poison Dressº family of folklore, in which victims are killed by contaminated clothing. Because historical legends often crystallise around actual people and events, and re¯ ect contemporary anxieties and the moral dilemmas of the tellers and their audiences, these stories have much to tell historians as well as folklorists. The poison khilat tales are intriguing examples of how recurrent narrative patterns emerge under cultural pressure to reveal fault lines within a given society’s accepted values and social practices.
