Mandia, District- Barpeta. 2. Solaman Siddique, Son of Alowar Rahman Village- Mouri Pam, P.O. Mandia, District- Barpeta. - Petitioners -Versus- 1. The State of Assam, represented by the Commissioner % Secretary to the Government of Assam, Education Department, Dispur, Guwahati -6. 2. The Director of Elementary Education, Kahilipara, Guwahati-19. 3. The District Elementary Education Officer, Barpeta. - Respondents BEFORE THE HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE A.K. GOSWAMI For the petitioners : Mr. H.A. Sarkar, Advocate. For the Respondents : Mr. R. Mazumdar, S.C., Education (Higher), Department. Date of hearing and judgment : 04.01.2016. JUDGMENT AND ORDER (ORAL) Heard Mr. H. A. Sarkar, learned counsel for the petitioners. Also heard Mr. R. Mazumdar, learned Standing counsel, Education (Higher) Department, appearing for respondent Nos. 1, 2 and 3. 2. Pursuant to an advertisement issued by the Directorate of Elementary Education Department, Assam, for the post of Junior Assistant (Field Level Officers) under the Directorate of Elementary Education, Assam, the two petitioners had responded by submitting their candidature within the stipulated period. By the aforesaid advertisement, total 61 numbers of posts were sought to be filled up and the applications were to be received only through online within 16.10.2015 to 02.11.2015. 2 The case projected in the writ petition is that in the midnight on 22.11.2015, a circular was displayed in the website of the respondent department indicating that the date for verification of documents was fixed on 23.11.2015. It is stated in the writ petition that because of paucity of time, it was not possible for them to appear before the appropriate authority for verification of documents although their names were listed at Serial Nos. 412 and 418 in the circular. Faced with the aforesaid predicament, the petitioners submitted an application before the respondent No. 2, on 07.12.2015, for extension of time to accept their documents for verification, but no action having been taken, the petitioners have approached this Court seeking redressal of their grievances. 3. Accordingly, prayer is made in this writ petition to allow the petitioners to submit their documents for verification. 4. Although the case has been listed for the first time today, Mr. Mazumdar has the requisite instructions. The case was taken up, initially, before the recess and taking note of the submission of Mr. Mazumdar that the date of examination is fixed tomorrow, he was requested to take instructions as to whether it will be possible for the respondents to make arrangements for the petitioners to appear in the examination. After the recess, the case is again taken up for consideration. He has submitted that he has taken instructions from the appropriate authorities and the same are to the effect that it will not be possible at this stage to allow the petitioners to sit in the examination. Mr. Mazumdar has submitted that it is entirely incorrect for the petitioners to say that only in the midnight of 22.11.2015, a circular was displayed in the website of the respondent department. He has produced two advertisements, which were published on 20.11.2015 in two daily newspapers – one in English, published in the “The Assam Tribune” and the other in a vernacular, published in “Janasadharan” and, accordingly, he submits that the very basis of the contention raised by the petitioners is factually not correct. It is also submitted by him that from 7-00 P.M. of 20.11.2015 to 7-00 P.M. of 21.11.2015 the news of fixing the date of verification of documents was prominently disseminated in the electronic media. In the advertisement itself it is indicated that the candidates will get their names, registration number, date and venue for verification of documents in the website from 21.11.2015. It is submitted by him that the process of verification of documents in different districts of Assam was undertaken from 23.11.2015 to 01.12.2015. According to him, the petitioners ought to have approached the authorities, if at all there were some genuine reasons for which they were not able to take part in 3 the verification process, within a reasonable time, while the verification process was still on, but they waited till 07.12.2015 to submit their representation. 5. In the aforesaid factual matrix, learned counsel for the respondents submits that at this stage no writ of mandamus may be issued to the respondent authorities to undertake the exercise of verification of the documents of the petitioners. 6. From the statements made in the writ petition, it appears that the petitioners were aware, at least, on 22.11.2015, that they were required to proceed to the verification centre to enable the respondent authorities to verify their documents. True, in a given case, the prospective candidate may not be able to present documents for verification, for good and sufficient reasons, on three days’ notice. But, in the instant case, the fact remains that in spite of the petitioners having come to know about the verification process on 22.11.2015, they had not taken any steps immediately to apprise the authorities that they could not submit their documents for verification and to pray for extension of time to submit the same. Even though the writ petition was filed on 14.12.2015, the same was in defective form and the defects came to be rectified on 22.12.2015. Much water had flown down the river Brahmaputra in the meantime. According to Mr. Mazumdar, different sets of OMR sheets have been prepared for the candidates and only fixed number of OMR sheets had been dispatched to the respective examination centers and the examination is being conducted by the Board of Secondary Education, Assam, which also, incidentally, has not been made a party-respondent in this writ petition. 7. This Court tried to explore the possibility, pending consideration of the case of the petitioners, as to whether, as an interim measure, it would be possible for the respondents to make arrangements to enable the petitioners to appear in the examination slated for 05.01.2016. Going by the stand taken by the respondents, it appears to the Court that such a course of action is not possible at this eleventh hour. If no interim order, as aforesaid, can be passed, the writ petition will be automatically rendered infructuous. 8. Delay, in the context of equitable jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution of India, has to be judged and considered not by number of days but in the contextual setting in which the writ petition had come to be filed. In the instant case, delay on the part of the writ petitioners to seek immediate remedial action has resulted in a situation in which no effective relief can be granted to the petitioners at this juncture. 4 9. In view of what has been stated above, the writ petition is dismissed. No cost. 10. The documents produced by Mr. Mazumdar is placed on record of this case. JUDGE RK 5 .

Set in the backdrop of the plains of Assam where the mighty Brahmaputra flows, the river is witness to the love, joy, success and ecstasy of the Assamese people. It is also witness to the religious frenzy, superstitions, betrayals, hate and violence that mark the dark hours of the night. Love and loyalty are hidden in the most unexpected quarters. Young Arjun fondly sings a lullaby to put a child to sleep… hatipoti, makipur, mezenga, bahut dur…! And in the end, deeply hurt to the core, he realizes that in this wide world, no one was truly your very own. Through the years, the Assamese have been known for their hospitality and kindness. Sayeed Ali, a Muslim boy, trapped in the middle of a communal riot, remembers the kindness of an aging Hindu couple. “Like a hen hiding her chicks from the claws of the kite, they protected me under the fold of their wings…” he says. And the stories go on until Abhijit’s final hour and beyond. These stories embrace a deep understanding of human behaviour as depicted by the authors. About the Translator Born in Calcutta, Dr. Deepika Phukan spent her childhood years in Madras and Jorhat and did her higher education from Guwahati. Her translated works include Moments, an anthology of short stories published by Cambridge India, Felanee, published by Zubaan, and Makam which is on the anvil with Zubaan for publication.

  • COMMUNICATOR the Journal of Indian Institute of Mass Communication Volume LIII, Number-4, October-December, 2018 ISSN: 0588-8093 Message from Editor-In-Chief
    COMMUNICATOR The Journal of Indian Institute of Mass Communication Volume LIII, Number-4, October-December, 2018 ISSN: 0588-8093 Message From Editor-in-Chief At the outset, I wish to express my gratitude to all the academicians and scholars who participated and presented papers at the National Seminar on “The State of Indian Language Journalism and Training” organised by IIMC with support from Indian Council of Social Sciences and Research (ICSSR) on October, 29 and 30, 2018 at IIMC Campus. K. G. Suresh The conference was organised to Editor-in-Chief commemorate the silver jubilee of Director General, IIMC our Eastern Regional Campus at Dhenkanal, Odisha from where we started our first language journalism programme in Odia. In the last three years, we have given a major push to language journalism launching a Malayalam Journalism programme at our Kottayam, Kerala campus and Marathi Journalism programme at Amravati, Maharashtra campus. This apart, we have upgraded the Certificate programme in Urdu Journalism to a full fledged Diploma programme. We have even started a three months Advanced Certificate Programme in Sanskrit Journalism in collaboration with the Shri Lal Bahadur Shastri Rashtriya Sanskrit Vidyapeeth besides setting up the Department of Indian Language Journalism. Future plans include starting Hindi and Urdu Journalism programmes from our Jammu campus and Bangla from our Odisha campus. Apart from the papers presented at the conference, many eminent academicians have also contributed to this volume. I am confident that this special issue on the state of Indian language journalism and training would be a collector’s issue for both students and scholars as also media persons across the country and would help them in better understanding of the issues at stake and take requisite steps to improve the quality and standard of both language journalism and training at a time when language journalism is growing by leaps and bounds.

ABSTRACT: Assam along with the entire Northeastern region is inhabited by several ethnic groups. They have been living in harmony since a long period. But sometimes, this peaceful region turns into turmoil and these ethnic groups and communities involve in violent ethnic conflict. Such conflict breaks social bond among the communities and destructs infrastructure, social order, economy, livelihood, education and legal system. Women and children are vulnerable towards conflict situation. Post conflict period has adverse effects especially on women. As media is the informer about the society, the role of media is crucial at times of emergency situation like war and conflict. This research paper tries to assess the role of print media in Assam in portraying the plight of women in conflict situation. The study has covered the ethnic conflicts occurred in Assam during the period of 1996-1998 and the area of the study is confined to Kokrajhar district of Assam. KEY WORDS: ethnic conflict, woman, community, media, society. INTRODUCTION Media is an influential medium in shaping the attitude of a society through conveying information. The prime responsibility of media is disseminating information. Media can play a powerful role in a democratic country. The function of media is to inform, entertain and to inculcate people with the values, beliefs and codes of behavior that will incorporate them into the institutional structures of the larger society.

  • The Assam Tribune
    / 17 Coverage of Antenatal Care by NRHM in Regional Newspapers of Assam with Special Reference to The Assam Tribune Arpana Barman * Dr. Arupjyoti Choudhury ^ Abstract National Rural Health Mission (NRHM) has been launched in India with an aim to reduce the Maternal Mortality Ratio (MMR) of the country. With the inception of NRHM, reduction of MMR is evident across all the States. Despite the decrease in MMR, the State of Assam continues to have higher than the national average. Various strategies have been adopted for curbing the increased MMR of the State including awareness generation through mass media. Print media is one of the sources for carrying health related messages to the masses. The present study is based on the content analysis of the coverage on Antenatal Care (ANC) by NRHM in a widely known local daily newspaper – The Assam Tribune . The concerned newspaper is studied on the content of coverage related to NRHM for a period of one year. It is observed that, in terms of numbers, maximum coverage by NRHM in the concerned paper are related to tender/quotation notices, advertisement for manpower recruitment and audits and bid. In terms of area of the column, maximum column space is occupied by display ads on feature articles, services provided under NRHM and projection of special drives like Mission Indradhanush for, Mission Tejaswi for consumption of Iron and Folic Acid, Intensified Diarrhoea Control Fortnight (IDCF) for diarrhea control, Deworming Day, etc. Coverage of content related to ANC is almost negligible. Advocacy of the media fraternity needs to be strengthened based on the present context for health promotion in mass media.

Pg.161 IRA International Journal of Management & Social Sciences ABSTRACT The North-East of India has been a hotly debated territory of India with voices coming up from different states such as Nagaland, Manipur and Assam demanding separate nations for themselves. These separatist agitations have got further confounded with a constant influx of Muslim immigrants from Bangladesh which began to impinge on the local cultural identities and demographics. This resulted in a prolonged militancy coupled with agitations yielding space for the Pakistani/Sri Lanka/Bangladesh based militants to infiltrate into India through porous borders of the North East and engage some disgruntled ultra outfits in the North East to wage a battle against India. In fact, Naga agitation for separate country bears a lot of similarity with the LTTE‟s struggle for separate Eelam in Sri Lanka.
