  • 25 Years of Struggle and Reconstruction in Narmada Valley October 22Nd – 23Rd, 2010 Dhadgaon (Mah) and Badwani (M.P.)
    AN INVITATION TO RALLY IN THE VALLEY 25 years of Struggle and Reconstruction in Narmada Valley October 22nd – 23rd, 2010 Dhadgaon (Mah) and Badwani (M.P.) NARMADA has been a witness to the 25 years long struggle by the communities reared in its laps over generations in the three states of Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra and Gujarat. Supported by a large number of individuals and groups across the country, their non- violent and perseverant struggle together grew into Narmada Bachao Andolan. Adivasis in the mountain ranges of Satpuda and Vindhyas, farmers, labourers, fish-workers and potters in the plains of Nimad have stayed put and challenged Sardar Sarovar (SSP), other large dams and massive canals, destroying prime agricultural land, large tracks of forests, rich horticulture and hilly as well as densely populated habitats. The saga that began in 1985 has completed 25 years of the battle which tried to question, not only large dams but lop-sided development, displacement and disparity growing with the presently imposed growth-centric paradigm of development. Our sangharsh (struggle) through questioning displacement, assertion of land and forest rights, right to fisheries, right to food and health, livelihood security, exposure of corruption and navnirman (reconstruction) through the Jeevanshalas (life schools), micro- hydel projects, and solar projects, with the help of our support groups has continued and progressed through various phases and strategies. Over these years, we have driven away the World Bank and many other international financiers from the valley by 1993, with the help of our global supporters and compelled the governments to rehabilitate thousands of adivasis with land, yet the task is far from complete and the struggle must continue.

  • The Sikh Community in Indian Punjab: Some Socio-Economic Challenges
    87 Ranjit S. Ghuman: Sikh Community The Sikh Community in Indian Punjab: Some Socio-Economic Challenges Ranjit Singh Ghuman Centre for Research in Rural and Industrial Development, Chandigarh ________________________________________________________________ The Sikh religion, though the youngest among the major religions of the world, has come to acquire a distinctive identity. Its followers have emerged as a distinct socio-religious community. The community, however, has been facing formidable socio-economic challenges in view of the changing development pattern and emerging global scenario. The access to quality education and health services to all members of the community so as to enable them to participate in the development process are the foremost challenges. The occupational diversification - shift from farm to non-farm sectors - and the unfavourable sex ratios are still further challenges. This paper argues that all Sikh institutions – religious, social, economic, educational and political – need to address these challenges and thus play a vital role in translating the challenges into opportunities. ________________________________________________________________ Introduction Sikhism is one of the most prominent, if not the only, surviving links with the several Bhakti movements that made their appearance in various parts of India during the medieval period.1 That it has stood the test of time, whereas most of the other contemporaneous movements have practically vanished, is however, not a mere accident of history. According to Fauja Singh (2000), this may be explained by three important factors: (i) the establishment of suitable institutions; (ii) the firm social commitment of the Sikh movements; and (iii) the powerful social backing from the business and agricultural classes of the then society .
