How is education in Qatar? They ask me is there any university in Qatar. When I say there are many good Indian schools, Qatar is having its own university and lots of foreign university campuses, they opens their eyebrow wide. This is a general wrong perception about Middle East back home. In fact , Qatar is moving fast forward towards its vision to be a educationally resource full country. Qatar national vision 2030 cascades its political will of wise leadership stemming from the steady progress of the country. It is making a great stride towards making a world class educational system learning from the best international systems. It is working towards Educational and Training Sector Strategy (ETSS) to make social development a success. This ETSS is also benefiting Indian educational system here.

    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.

Article History: Submitted-27/09/2019, Revised-05/11/2019, Accepted-10/11/2019, Published-20/11/2019. Abstract: Modern Assamese theatre is basically amateur in nature and the permanent playhouses erected by various amateur theatre societies of Assam played the pivotal role in the development of western-style Assamese dramaturgy. Ban Theatre of Tezpur in the Sonitpur district of Assam occupied the central place in the development of modern Assamese theatre. The playhouse gave birth to the greatest Assamese dramatist Jyotiprasad Agarwala and raised stellar performers like Bishnu Rabha and Phani Sarma. It introduced the first theatrical orchestra in the State, standardised native Assamese songs and music and employed innovative styles of playwriting and play-production. The present study makes an analytical attempt to trace the history of performance at Ban Theatre and situate its vibrant tradition of theatre practice in the context of the development of modern Assamese theatre.

  • International Border Disputes & Adverse
    INTERNATIONAL BORDER DISPUTES & ADVERSE-POSSESSIONS OF INDIA-BANGLADESH INTERNATIONAL BORDER LAND DISPUTE – INDIAN PAID TAX BUT BANGLADESHI GETS OWNERSHIP By SHIB SHANKAR CHATTERJEE 1 INTERNATIONAL BORDER DISPUTES & ADVERSE-POSSESSIONS OF INDIA-BANGLADESH INTERNATIONAL BORDER LAND DISPUTE – INDIAN PAID TAX BUT BANGLADESHI GETS OWNERSHIP By SHIB SHANKAR CHATTERJEE Sir Cyril Radcliff, the English gentleman, who headed the boundary commission during the partition of India in 1947, drew a straight line on a topographic map. As a result of this, hills, rivers, forests, human habitations, agricultural-fields, etcetera of India and Pakistan were tragically divided. It had a vast effect in the Eastern Indian region. That is, especially on the India-Bangladesh International Border, also known as the India Bangladesh International Boundary (IBIB). Earlier, Bangladesh was a part of East Bengal, known locally as – Purbo Bango or Purbo Bangla, which was later renamed East Pakistan, locally called – Purbo Pakistan [of West Pakistan, known as – Poshchim Pakistan] of the present Pakistan State, and then Bangladesh after 16th December, 1971. Neither India nor Bangladesh have done enough to get rid of the ‘ghost of Radcliff’. It is a fact that the international boundary demarcation in the Indian Subcontinent cuts across communities and tribes. The three major river systems, the Indus, the Ganges and the Brahmaputra, by cutting across the boundary-lines of India, Pakistan and Bangladesh have further exacerbated the tension between them resulting from disputes over the share of water. This particular international border touches five Indian states – Assam, Meghalaya, Tripura, Mizoram and West Bengal. Apart from that, there are a number of disputes and problems on the India Bangladesh International Border (IBIB), which still exist.
