EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1.1 INTRODUCTION Calcutta Institute of Engineering and Management was established in the year 2003 under the aegis of the then honorable Chief Minister of the state of West Bengal, Late. Sri. Jyoti Basu and also by our very own, respected Late. Sri. Prasanta Sur. The campus is best known as the Prasanta Sur Campus. The basic objective behind setting up this institute was to produce quality professionals and well versed engineers to the society by providing quality education to them. The institute started its journey by offering B.Tech degrees in Electronics and Communication Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science Engineering and Information Technology. But later on as per the demands of the society, the institute also opened up B.Tech degrees in Instrumentation and Control Engineering and in Civil Engineering. Over the years, the institute has developed a name for itself by also having huge societal contributions in the form of rendering various services to the society such as through by organizing Blood Donation Camps, organizing Sit and Draw competition involving community engagement, etc. Right from its inception, the institute provides a congenial environment where students and faculty members collectively combine to give significant contribution to the society. The institute inherits a rich culture of producing quality professionals who have all made a mark for themselves in the professional world. The institute stands apart from others solely by virtue of its simplicity and rich culture. Vision To emerge as a premier Engineering and Management Institute of the country with academic excellence in collaboration with Industry and develop students as modern citizens who would serve and enrich the society by using their technical prowess competently for it's development and prosperity. Mission To impart high-quality technical education with efforts to instill strong human values, entrepreneurial skills, research capability, effective communication skills and problem-solving abilities to face the contemporary world with solutions for its crisis or problems. 1.2 Strength, Weakness, Opportunity and Challenges(SWOC) Institutional Strength INSTITUTIONAL STRENTH Qualified faculties Quality teaching learning process.(University ranks) Good ICT infrastucture.

Motivating work culture and adequately positive environment. Generating Revenue through R&D projects. Institutional Weakness WEAKNESS Lack of consultancy projects funded by industries and Government. Limited number of senior faculty members with industry experience. Large number of students with deficiency in English language comprehension and poor communication skills. Limited Institute-Industry interaction. Institutional Opportunity OPPORTUNITIES In Indian states Engg Colleges are allowed to charge more tuition fee for accredited BE programs.

    People, Politics and Protests VIII LEFT FRONT GOVERNMENT IN WEST BENGAL (1971-1982) Considerations on “Passive Revolution” & the Question of Caste in Bengal Politics Atig Ghosh 2017 LEFT FRONT GOVERNMENT IN WEST BENGAL (1971-1982) Considerations on “Passive Revolution” & the Question of Caste in Bengal Politics ∗ Atig Ghosh The Left Front was set up as the repressive climate of the Emergency was relaxed in January 1977. The six founding parties of the Left Front, i.e. the Communist Party of India (Marxist) or the CPI(M), the All India Forward Bloc (AIFB), the Revolutionary Socialist Party (RSP), the Marxist Forward Bloc (MFB), the Revolutionary Communist Party of India (RCPI) and the Biplabi Bangla Congress (BBC), articulated a common programme. This Left Front contested the Lok Sabha election in an electoral understanding together with the Janata Party and won most of the seats it contested. Ahead of the subsequent June 1977 West Bengal Legislative Assembly elections, seat- sharing talks between the Left Front and the Janata Party broke down. The Left Front had offered the Janata Party 56 per cent of the seats and the post as Chief Minister to JP leader Prafulla Chandra Sen, but JP insisted on 70 per cent of the seats. The Left Front thus opted to contest the elections on its own. The seat-sharing within the Left Front was based on the “Promode Formula”, named after the CPI(M) State Committee Secretary Promode Das Gupta. Under the Promode Formula the party with the highest share of votes in a constituency would continue to field candidates there, under its own election symbol and manifesto.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 POLITICAL AND 2 Abstract This thesis is based on a comparative case study of two bustee neighbourhoods located in two separate wards of Calcutta, and of the factors which have affected the performance of public officials providing primary health care services to their inhabitants. It is argued that poor bureaucratic performance and a lack of accountability lie at the heart of problems with the health system in West Bengal. The thesis evaluates the effectiveness of ‘governance’ reforms, comprising decentralisation and the application of the principles of New Public Management (NPM), on the performance of public officials. NPM and decentralisation apply the core assumptions of neo-classical economics to the study of bureaucratic decision-making.

  • Chapter-III Refugee Organizations
    Chapter-III Refugee Organizations: Agitation &Attainments 137 Chapter-III Refugee Organizations: Agitations &Attainments I Since the pre-historic period men had organized themselves under the umbrella of various organizations, sometimes to survive their existence and sometimes to attain a particular goal for their self-betterment. And the modern and the post-modern periods were also not exceptions to that tradition. Accordingly, the East Bengali Hindu refugees who were compelled to leave their hearths and homes and took shelter in West Bengal could feel the necessity of an organization of their own for getting proper relief and permanent rehabilitation, what they considered as their legitimate right.1 Partition had not only compelled the common Hindu masses of East Pakistan to leave their ancestral homes but also the Hindu leaders. Soon after the Partition of Bengal in 1947 they started their uncertain journey towards West Bengal and other such places for safe shelter and livelihood. These leaders consisted of both the left and the right wings of the political parties. Many of the refugee leaders were sympathetic towards two secret revolutionary parties namely Anushilan and Jugantar and were also the staunch followers of the ideology of Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose.2 However, as soon as they stepped onto the soil of West Bengal they became the staunch supporters of the Congress; because (a) they were well aware that it was the Congress that could save them, lift them from their moribund condition and provide them new abodes to retain their entity and (b) the refugees were doubtful about the Communists as the latter had supported the war efforts of the British Government in India in a stand against Fascism and were open detractors of Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose.

The Strategic Sanitation Approach (SSA) has evolved as a response to unsatisfactory performance of existing policies. The approach is built upon the core belief that provision of sustainable sanitation to urban areas is only possible by a demand oriented service delivery system.
