The plan of Satan is to make the people of God to work against the will of God! ­ All those who run behind the greenery like money, property, worldly pleasures, and worldly desires cannot run toward the plan of God! ­ Decisions taken in ministry without the will of God Do not give happiness, the peace do not last long and do not yield fruit! ­ All those who have the confirmation that they are– doing the will of God Will not be afraid even when the earth tremors and the waters gush out! Though they were in Job's situation, they will sing the song of Habakkuk; Finally they will shine as gold! To see the glorious gospel of JESUS CHRIST VISION: blessing villages in INDIA. Vishwa Vani Samarpan - March 2020 - ENGLISH FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR We greet you in the sweet name of our Lord Jesus Christ. The past days, we were able to enjoy the grace, presence and blessings of God. Praise the Lord for His sweet name! The Great Plan of God in the life of God's People: The Biblical Truth to know about 'Complete Plan' that God has for His children make us to feel awestruck. We know very well how an engineer plans his building in detail. But above that, the Almighty God has prepared beforehand in details the plan of our life from the very beginning (Eph. 2:10). The small encounter that Saul who was later called as Apostle Paul had with Jesus on the way to Damascus made him say “Lord, what do you want me to do?” (Acts 9:1-6 NKJV)) and made him commit to the will of God! It was not an ordinary incident but it was a plan designed by God to carry the gospel to the gentiles (Acts 9:15). Likewise, the aims of people like Noah, Abraham and Moses were also great (Heb. 11:7-10; 24-27). Finding the Great Plan of God and Accepting: It is a sad thing that many children of God do not know the plan of God, they fall short in accepting his plan and suffer disappointments, failures, loss and frustration. The main reason for it is that they live focussing on their own thoughts. They are proud; they are very firm all that they do are correct. They waste their life without humbling themselves to others. The day when they accept the love of Jesus in their heart totally then God's will starts working in their life! Generally, the plan of God has three functions in the life of man. Firstly, it belong to each individual (Acts 9:4, 6; Gen. 22:11-18; Ex. 3:1-10). Because, you are created for a special purpose. Secondly, the plan of God in your life is perfect. It is; explained in Romans 12:2, as, it is good, pleasing and perfect. Thirdly, it is applicable in day today life. That is God has planned for you what you can accomplish. Do the best of what you can do! How to fulfil the plan of God in our life? God reveals His plan step by step to His people whom He knew (Acts 8:26,29; 9:6; 10:19-20). God does not give the blueprint of the building Vishwavani Samarpan- MARCH 2020 - ENGLISH totally but He gives then and there so that we could obey and follow. God expects to obey to His command daily and be under His perfect will. When we remain in prayer and when we fill the heart with the Word of God and give ourselves to the leading of the Holy Spirit, we can fulfil the plan of God little by little in our life. When we work according to the will of God then we will stand firm (1 John 2:17). That will help us to sing the song of victory, “Father, I have completed the work that you have assigned for me'. Amen. Here I am Send Me: Our vision is that the glorious gospel of Jesus Christ blessing the villages in India. Our approach in reaching the unreached villages is only through native workers with the prayers and contribution of Indian believers. 23 new workers have completed their training in Andhra Pradesh and have gone to the fields; they are followed by 25 new workers in Gujarat and 24 new workers in Rajasthan. As the Ezras from North Eastern states are waiting for the training saying, “Send Me”. Pray that the Master of the Harvest will send them soon. National Meet – 02, January 14-16, 2020: 568 believers from Tamil Nadu, Kerala, North India and North East India attended National meet held at Dhyana Nilayam, Hyderabad. They were inspired by God to move towards the goal. The Sandhya Prayer Time and early Morning Prayer Walks were beneficial! The vision news, sharing about the fields and cultural songs helped to involve in the ministry at a deeper level. I thank P. Selvaraj Annan who counselled and encouraged at different levels and co-workers who cooperated. Love and Support of Churches of C.S.I. Madurai – Ramnad Diocese: I thank Rev. V. Prem Christhu Das who presided the vision meeting that was held at Schwartz Matric High School Campus, Ramanathapuram on 25.01.2020 and Mr. D. Anbalagan who is the leader of the District Ministry Development Team, representatives, pastors and co-workers. I thank the pastorate committee, Secretary, Treasurer and the church members for giving me the opportunity to share the Word of God. The New Year Vishwavani Samarpan- MARCH 2020 - ENGLISH meeting that was held at the house of Mr. Henry Manoharan under the leadership of Rev. K. Vedamuthu, Pastor of Emmanuel church was of great blessing. I thank the pastor, representatives and the workers. Finance and Administrative Works and Needs: In the gospel work, “finance – administration – ministry” are twined together. In order to move through the vision, we need finance and administration. Prayer and faith are our investment. Along with the representatives, the ministry partners give speed to the wheels of the ministry. In order to take the souls to heaven, the workers are accompanied by the ministry partners, development workers and the administrative staff. In particular, the publications department, public relations, Missions-Sponsor link, Finance-Administration, Training, Human Resource, Pastoral Care and the Community development workers need your prayers. We need Rs. 11.5 crores to meet the needs of the present ministry by 31.03.2020. We lovingly expect the donations from the savings boxes, monthly village contributions, and special contributions. We request you to send Rs. 100/- as the subscription for Samarpan magazine. Come forward to donate bicycles, Holy Communion vessels, musical instruments, two-wheelers, four-wheelers, P.A.Systems and Holy Bibles. Come forward to donate Rs 2,000/- per square feet to purchase land for the construction of churches in North India. May the Lord richly bless you. Vishwa Vani Member Care: It is a privilege to support the workers in prayer and attend to their families in their good and bad times. In particular, when the worker has fallen as a kernel at the field, we raise a particular amount for their family. Our missionary Sunil Kumar passed away at the landslide in 18.08.19. His family was supported through this great deposit. Moreover, we are supporting the family of the workers every month. Our prayers and support enable that family to continue the ministry. After this incident we have lost 5 more missionaries. If God puts in your heart the burden to support such workers' family, send your amount through the representatives or the development workers. Let your hands comfort the families of the missionaries and strengthen them. As workers, we are also separating a particular amount for the concern of the missionaries. Jesus said: What you do unto the least you do unto God. Vishwavani Samarpan- MARCH 2020 - ENGLISH Special Melas for Jatapu and Soura People Groups: The mela for the Jatapu people group in Andhra Pradesh was held from February 7 to 9 at Rella mission field of Vizianagaram district. More than 5,000 Jatapu believers attended it. The mela was held for three days. There were faith confession services, medical camp and children's camp. The ministry partners from Guntur, Visakhapatnam and Vizianagaram in Andhra Pradesh attended the mela along with the development workers and encouraged the new believers. Likewise, Soura believers' Mela was held from February 14 to 16 at Sandhimanuguda field of Veeraghattam Mandal of Srikakulam district. The Word of God was shared with thousands of people.

All rights reserved 1018-4813/17 www.nature.com/ejhg ARTICLE Reconstructing the population history of the largest tribe of India: the Dravidian speaking Gond Gyaneshwer Chaubey*,1, Rakesh Tamang2,3, Erwan Pennarun1,PavanDubey4,NirajRai5, Rakesh Kumar Upadhyay6, Rajendra Prasad Meena7, Jayanti R Patel4,GeorgevanDriem8, Kumarasamy Thangaraj5, Mait Metspalu1 and Richard Villems1,9 The Gond comprise the largest tribal group of India with a population exceeding 12 million. Linguistically, the Gond belong to the Gondi–Manda subgroup of the South Central branch of the Dravidian language family. Ethnographers, anthropologists and linguists entertain mutually incompatible hypotheses on their origin. Genetic studies of these people have thus far suffered from the low resolution of the genetic data or the limited number of samples. Therefore, to gain a more comprehensive view on ancient ancestry and genetic affinities of the Gond with the neighbouring populations speaking Indo-European, Dravidian and Austroasiatic languages, we have studied four geographically distinct groups of Gond using high-resolution data. All the Gond groups share a common ancestry with a certain degree of isolation and differentiation. Our allele frequency and haplotype-based analyses reveal that the Gond share substantial genetic ancestry with the Indian Austroasiatic (ie, Munda) groups, rather than with the other Dravidian groups to whom they are most closely related linguistically.

Data have been collected through field visits and semi-structured interviews with 64 members of the community. The result shows that, even though the Urangs have traditionally been working and living in different tea gardens in Sylhet, a lot of them are now engaged in various professions including jobs even in some government offices. Linguistically the Urangs are predominantly bilingual: they speak Kurukh and in some cases Sadri for intra-communal communication whereas they use Bangla for communicating with mainstream Bangladeshi people. 37.50% of the respondents have opined that their mother tongue Kurukh has its writing system when 62.50% are of the view that Kurukh has no written script.

The overall prevalence of under nutrition (BMI < 18.5) was very high (56%). The prevalence was significantly higher in male than the female (72.0% vs. 40.0%; p <0.001). Sex wise mean differences was found in all anthropometric indicators (p= <0.001 & P= <0.01) except weight. The mean SBP, DBP and MAP increased with increasing BMI level. BMI category wise differences found between SBP, DBP& MAP among male and female (p=<0.001). Pearson correlation coefficient shows that very high significant association between all anthropometric and physiological variables (p= <0.01) except height wise SBP, DBP & MAP.
