  • Urban Development
    MMEGHALAYAEGHALAYA SSTATETATE DEVELOPMENTDEVELOPMENT RREPORTEPORT CHAPTER VIII URBAN DEVELOPMENT 8.1. Introducti on Urbanizati on in Meghalaya has maintained a steady growth. As per 2001 Census, the state has only 19.58% urban populati on, which is much lower than the nati onal average of 28%. Majority of people of the State conti nue to live in the rural areas and the same has also been highlighted in the previous chapter. As the urban scenario is a refl ecti on of the level of industrializati on, commercializati on, increase in producti vity, employment generati on, other infrastructure development of any state, this clearly refl ects that the economic development in the state as a whole has been rather poor. Though urbanizati on poses many challenges to the city dwellers and administrators, there is no denying the fact that the process of urbanizati on not only brings economic prosperity but also sets the way for a bett er quality of life. Urban areas are the nerve centres of growth and development and are important to their regions in more than one way. The current secti on presents an overview of the urban scenario of the state. 88.2..2. UUrbanrban sseett llementement andand iitsts ggrowthrowth iinn tthehe sstatetate Presently the State has 16 (sixteen) urban centres, predominant being the Shillong Urban Agglomerati on (UA).

  • The Khasi States and Shillong Municipality
    THE KHASI STATES AND SHILLONG MUNICIPALITY: On the day, the Constitution of India came into force; Khasi States became a part of the State of Assam. Prior to this, there were some agreements relating to accession of the Khasi States with the Indian Union to which reference shall be made later. Before this is done, a bird's eye view at the history of these States may not be out of place. Khasis, perhaps, represent one of the earliest waves of migration to India's northeast corner. Historians are not being able to say with authority how early and from where the migration took place. Some trace it even to the days of Mahabharata; but authenticate account is lacking and it is because of this that Major P.R.Giirdon' has regarded the question relating to the origin of the Khasis as a 'very vexed' one. After referring to various opinions about the place from where the Khasis are said to have migrated, Major Gurdon was of the view that the Khasis are an offshoot of the Mon people and must have moved into Assam from east, meaning Burma, and not from west or north. The documented history of the Khasis till the advent of the British consists almost entirely of references to Khasi kings and kingdoms in the 'Buranjis' of Ahom Kings, annals of Koch King Naranarayana and some reference in the chronicles of the Kings of Tippera. The earliest named dynasty is perhaps that of Malyngiang Syiems, who were regarded as supernatural beings and God­kinds. Some historians would place these kings around 1200 A.D., while others would not agree with this.

  • Chapter Six Nepali Migration and Settlement Into Northeast India In
    Chapter Six Nepali Migration and Settlement into Northeast India in Colonial and Postcolonial Phase Nepali migration to Northeast India has taken place from nineteenth century mainly from Nepal and also to some extent from other parts of India. Scope of employment in the British colonial army paved the way to migration of Nepalis to India including Northeastern parts of it. For the expeditions against the tribes of Northeast Nepalis were used. Gorkhas were awarded for their service and loyalty to British army. The British tried to take care of the Gorkha soldiers, encouraged them to settle in the region and allotted land to them. After the First World War a huge number of Gorkha ex-servicemen were settled in the Northeast region, especially in Manipur. 1 British encouragement to Nepali settlement in the Northeast was not always limited to retired Gorkha soldiers but also to others. Beside military employment, Nepali migration had taken place in other sectors of service in colonial period. Nepalis worked as porters, labourers in plantation, construction and mining sectors, in oil refineries, saw mills, sugarcane cultivation, and many other sectors in Northeast India. Nepalis were also involved in large scale lumbering and clearing of forest. Plenty of land available in the hills and valleys of northeast also encouraged Nepali migrant in the profession of graziers. The British were benefited with the labour of Nepali migrants and Nepalis were easily fitted in the colonial arrangement. Cultivable rice plots were also allotted to the Nepalis. Nepalis, who migrated, settled in the foothill between Assam and Arunachal Pradesh. They also settled in the vast forest fringes and in the river banks of Assam, even in Naga Hills, Manipur, Meghalaya, Sikkim and every parts of Northeast India.

Till Jun 2015 the disposal of garbage was being done by residents and commercial establishments in garbage dumps. The Shillong Municipal Board (SMB) instituted a concept of “free doorstep collection of segregated garbage” by mobile vans. The segregation, storage at source and subsequent collection of garbage from the various localities is facilitated by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) MoU funded by the North-Eastern Region Capital Cities Development Investment Program (NERCCDIP); complimented with the “Polluter Pays Principle (PPP)”, wherein both the state government and the local “Dorbar” have ownership of the process. The paper tries to establish the success or otherwise of the implementation of the “Polluter Pays Principle (PPP)” in the Shillong Metropolitan Region to include its contribution towards the “Swachta Abhiyan” and capability to generate a source of reliable funding to keep Shillong clean.

  • A Study on Man Power Requirement in Education at the Primary Level in Meghalaya
    A STUDY ON MAN POWER REQUIREMENT IN EDUCATION AT THE PRIMARY LEVEL IN MEGHALAYA INTRODUCTION 1.1.0 Introduction With the ever increasing awareness of people for quality education, there is an even greater awareness of the need for overall qualitative improvement in classroom instruction. Often for want of teachers with the prescribed qualification, schools in rural areas in particular, are left with no choice but to appoint locally available teachers even if such appointees lack the requisite qualification. It is an oft repeated statement that one of the inhibiting factors, which impede the growth of quality education, is the lack of adequate number of qualified teachers for meeting the requirements of schools. This often stems from the fact that vacancies remain unfilled for years together coupled by lack of funds and the unwillingness of most teachers to work in the remote rural areas. This is further compounded by the shortage of trained and competent teachers. There is every possibility that even in a small state like Meghalaya, school authorities are confronted with these similar kinds of problems. Compounding this problem is the unfilled vacancy caused by superannuation or unfilled vacant posts which often lead to undue high drop-out rate of children at the primary school level. If this problem is to be overcome, suitable measures would have to be adopted for building up a pool of teachers who at any given time would be ready to serve in schools which may be requiring their services.

Improper handling and disposal of solid waste creates unsanitary conditions that lead to pollution of the environment and outbreak of diseases. The essential objective of SWM is to reduce and eliminate adverse impacts of squander materials on human well-being and to the environment. The Government of India plays a vital role to define approach rules and gives specialized help to different States of the country whenever is needed. One of the most obvious impacts of rapidly increasing urbanization and economic development can be witnessed in the form of heaps of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) lying in dumping sites near several cities and towns. SWM is everybody's responsibility.
