Over the last decade, the growth of telecom infrastructure has become closely linked with the economic development of a country, especially the development of rural and remote areas. The challenge for developing countries is to ensure that telecommunication services, and the resulting benefits of economic, social and cultural development which these services promote, are extended effectively and efficiently throughout the rural and remote areas - those areas which in the past have often been disadvantaged, with few or no telecommunication services. 1.2. The Role of telecommunication connectivity is vital for delivery of e- Governance services at the doorstep of citizens, promotion of tourism in an area, educational development in terms of tele-education, in health care in terms of telemedicine facilities. In respect of safety and security too telecommunication connectivity plays a vital role.

  • Tribal Community Visit to Malaria-Endemic Areas Can Pose Risk to Car Nicobar Island: Deterrent for Malaria Elimination
    Int J Travel Med Glob Health. 2019 Mar;7(1):33-37 doi 10.15171/ijtmgh.2019.07 J http://ijtmgh.com IInternationalTMGH Journal of Travel Medicine and Global Health Original Article Open Access Tribal Community Visit to Malaria-Endemic Areas Can Pose Risk to Car Nicobar Island: Deterrent for Malaria Elimination Zahid Ali Khan1, Ittoop Pulikkottil Sunish 1* 1Division of Medical Entomology, Regional Medical Research Centre-ICMR, Dollygunj, Port Blair, Andaman and Nicobar Islands 744103, India Corresponding Author: Ittoop Pulikkottil Sunish, PhD, Division of Medical Entomology, Regional Medical Research Centre- ICMR, Post Bag No. 13, Dollygunj, Port Blair, Andaman and Nicobar Islands 744103, India. Tel: +95-31954301, Email: [email protected] Received November 15, 2018; Accepted February 16, 2019; Online Published March 4, 2019 Abstract Introduction: In the past 10 years, a declining trend was seen in the annual parasite incidence (API) of malaria in the Car Nicobar Island. For the past few years, the API in the island has been below one. Car Nicobar Island is struggling with malaria cases reported to have been brought from other, malaria-endemic islands. Methods: The movements of people were monitored by door-to-door visits during early morning hours, and the frequency of their movements to different islands (malarious and non-malarious areas) were monitored. Results: A larger number of villagers visited non-malarious areas (OS-O) than malarious areas (OS-N). The maximum number of people was found out of station during the month of June. Thirty-seven percent of people were out of the station to non-malarious areas, while only 6% were out of the station to islands endemic for malaria.

  • Study of Disaster Mitigation for Car Nicobar Island Using Remote Sensing and GIS

Ramanujam and K. Dharanirajan Department of Disaster Management, Pondcherry University, Broorkshabad, Port Blair – 744112, Andaman Abstract: December 26th 2004 earthquake with 9.3 Mw caused one of the deadliest Tsunami in the human history. Subsidence of land mass t o 1.5 m along the eastern part of entire Andaman and Nicobar islands and up lift of 1.5 m in the western margins of the island system were observed. Most of the islands are constituted with folded mountain belts, except Car Nicobar. The epicenter of December 26, 2004 Sumatra earthquake was 163 km away from Great Nicobar, the southernmost island and hence it was strongly felt in the entire Andaman & Nicobar group of islands including Car Nicobar. Evidence of subsidence was also observed at the Car Nicobar the northernmost island of the Nicobar group (N9.2 o lat., E92.4 o long). Car Nicobar is being almost flat terrain to the east and an elevated terrain with maximum elevation of about 70 m to the west and hence the destructive Tsunami waves engulfed in the eastern part of the island. This island was worst affected in terms of damage and loss of life. The objective of this study is to mitigate the impact of disasters in the form of Tsunami and earthquake and cyclone for the Car Nicobar Island.

  • Cultural Response of Car Nicobarese to Tsunami
    International Journal of Cross-Cultural Studies Vol. 2 No. 1 (June, 2016) ISSN: 0975-1173 www.mukpublications.com CULTURAL RESPONSE OF CAR NICOBARESE TO TSUNAMI D.V. Prasad Anthropological Survey of India Government of India Abstract This article explores Moran’s human adaptability approach in dealing with uncertain environments and the cultural responses of human populations to stressful conditions. In order to test this conceptual framework, the structural features of Car Nicobarese social organization such as kūönkūö or tö-ngöönka (lineage unity), hinëngö panam or manūlö panam (village unity), harūk (child adoption), inlōm: (rules of residence),. are analyzed from emic point of view. These conditions and factors in embedded in nature and create impeccable unity among consanguine, affine and hol (traditional friends) towards collective action in the recuperation of the community from the earthquake and tsunami devastation in the Nicobar Islands. The paper further argues that it is the cultural adjustment factor, rather than physiological or behavioral, that plays a significant role in the resurrection of internal solidarity during exigencies. Introduction: Frequent natural disasters have been severely affecting millions of human lives as well as properties throughout the world. These not only destabilize the physical properties, but uproot the invaluable cultural heritage of the communities concerned. The form and nature of disasters vary from one area to another and similarly responses of human beings also differ in time and space (Fritz, 1968). The diversity of such responses, whether it be biological or cultural, facilitate the adjustment of individuals to the formative period of disasters and is flexible enough to adapt to the situation.

ABSTRACT Background: Community based active case finding for tuberculosis (TB) is an essential step in the fight forward for eliminating TB. One of the steps in targeting TB intervention is early diagnosis and treatment of patients by reducing the reservoir of infection in the community. Active case finding (ACF) targeting the entire population by house to house survey was done in Nicobar district of these islands. Methods: A community-based, cross-sectional, descriptive study was conducted with the trained mobile teams from 17.07.2017 to 31.07.2017 in the Nicobar District.

It grows on sandy and rocky shore areas and has lantern shaped Islands; seeds, locally called Kinyav used during the calm season in shallow and low tide waters for killing Nicobarese; fishes, octopus, etc. At every successful operation they harvest about 1–3 kg and on the whole about Kinyav; 10–20 kg of fishes per trip. This method of fish catching was popular among the Car Nicobari tribes Tsunami until massive tsunami of 26th December, 2004, which caused dislocation of tribes from their erstwhile coastal inhabitations to interior areas, damage of coral reefs, permanent water intrusion in the inter- tidal area and destruction of Kinyav trees. Hence, now-a-days the popularity of this fishing method among them has diminished.
