Abstract Present paper deals with the use of indigenous plants for phytotherapy practiced by the Koch community of South Salmara- Mankachar district, Assam. Field survey was carried out in all the villages of the district inhabited by Koch community. This paper provides information about 70 folklore medicinal plant species belonging to 65 angiospermic genera of 41 families. Further analysis of data revealed that leaves were used in the majority of cases for herbal medicine preparation (35 species), followed by roots (7 species), fruits (6 species), seeds (5 species) bark and stems (4 species) each, rhizome and flower (3 species) each, whole plant and cloves (1 species) each respectively. All the plant parts tested positive for the presence of alkaloids. Key words : Phytotherapy, Koch community, South Salmara-Mankachar district, Alkaloids. Introduction geographical boundaries, there are several groups of In spite of enormous progress in modern medical Koches viz., Wanang, Harigaiya, Satpari, Chapra or system, about 80% of the world population still depends Dasgaiya, Tintikiya, Banai and Sankar Koch.

  • The Killing Fields of Assam: the Myth and Reality of Its Muslim Immigration
    Munich Personal RePEc Archive The Killing Fields of Assam: The Myth and Reality of Its Muslim Immigration Borooah, Vani University of Ulster 2012 Online at https://mpra.ub.uni-muenchen.de/75672/ MPRA Paper No. 75672, posted 22 Dec 2016 05:55 UTC The Killing Fields of Assam: The Myth and Reality of Its Muslim Immigration Vani Kant Borooah* University of Ulster November 2012 Abstract The Indian state of Assam has been in turmoil since the 1970s over the issue of illegal immigration from Bangladesh. This has, frequently, manifest itself in attacks on its Bengali-speaking Muslims who are accused of taking advantage of the porous, 267 kilometres long, border between Assam and Bangladesh to enter the state and occupy land belonging to the native population. Moreover, through a rapid increase in their numbers, they are viewed as diluting and debasing traditional Assamese Hindu culture through the instrument of a foreign language (Bengali) and an alien religion (Islam). However, the issue of immigration into Assam raises several questions. First, what is the scale of the problem? Then, what is the division of immigrants between Hindu and Muslim? Lastly, how many illegal migrants are there in the state? This paper attempts to answer these questions by applying community-specific reproduction rates to the Muslim and non-Muslim parts of Assam’s population and then comparing the derived numbers with the actual number of Muslims and non-Muslims in the state. It then evaluates the contribution of Assam’s immigrants to its polity and its economy. * School of Economics, University of Ulster, Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland BT37 0QB, UK.

  • Spread of Islam in Pre-Mughal Bengal
    Intellectual Discourse,1994, 1b1. 2, No.1, 41-55 SPREAD OF ISLAM IN PRE-MUGHAL BENGAL Abdullah AI-Ahsan* Abstract: Today'sMuslim-majority Bangladeshis surroundedby non-Muslim northern India in the westand BuddhistMynamar in the east. Many non-Muslim scholars have argued that force was applied in convertingindigenous Hindus, while a number of Muslim scholars have emphasisedthe migration of Muslims from other parts of India, as an explanation. Scholars have differences of opinion regarding the time when Bangladeshbecame a Muslim-majority area. This paper arguesthat the area constitutingBangladesh was a Buddhistmajority area before conversionto Islam, and that this conversionwas largely voluntary, through the preaching of sufis. Bengal had alreadybecome a Muslim-majority area when Mughals arrived there. Bangladeshtoday is geographicallya territory isolated from the rest of the Muslim world. It is isolatedfrom Pakistanand the Middle Eastto the west by the non-Muslim areasof India and from the Malay world to the east by Burma and Thailand. When and how did Bengal become a Muslim-majority territory? Why did this areabecome Muslim-majority region while the rest of northernand southernIndia failed to do so? This paper intends to addressthese questions. Modern historians disagreeon the questionsof when and how Islam spread in Bengal. For example,while a Hindu historian, R.C. Majum- dar, emphasizedthe role of forced conversion, a Muslim one, M.A. Rahim, points to the migration of Muslims from other parts of the world, along with the conversionof low-casteHindus, as the primary methods of Islamization in Bengal. This paperreviews the availableliterature on the subject. * Associate Professor, Departmentof History and Civilization, International Islamic University Malaysia.

  • Past and Future: a Collection of Bengali Literature, 1
    Past and Future: A Collection of Bengali Literature, 1 Smita Ghosh Newton Collection Past and Future: A Collection of Bengali Literature I was introduced to Bengali literature early in life because although I was born and raised in America, my father is Bengali. My father was born in Kolkata and lived there until he was 25. (Kolkata is the new spelling of Calcutta, the capital city of the state of West Bengal in India. The language spoken there is Bengali.) He moved to America for graduate school, met my mother, a Caucasian American, and eventually settled here. He has always kept Indian literature in our house, scattered across the bookshelves the way that the scent of curry powder lingered in the crevices of our tiny New York kitchen; incidental or normal for me as a child, but also powerfully meaningful in retrospect. I wouldn’t want to make this a story about my father, though. While he introduced me to the field and has always supported my interest, I really got involved in reading Bengali literature on my own, especially when it converged with my academic program. In high school I read Bharati Mukherjee’s Jasmine and Leave it to Me. I was aware of Indian literature mostly in terms of these prototypes, I thought of Indian literature as books written in English—for English speakers—about being Indian in the Western world. When I came to Swarthmore, I was determined to learn how to speak Bengali. I had never connected this desire to speak Bengali with the desire to read more Bengali writing.

    INTEGRAL STUDY OF THE SILK ROADS: ROADS OF DIALOGUE 21-22 JANUARY 1991 BANGKOK, THAILAND Bengal and Southeast Asia: Trade and Cultural Contacts in Ancient Period Prof. A. M. Chowdury 1 Bengal and Southeast Asia: Trade and Cultural Contacts in Ancient Period Prof. A. M. Chowdury The labors of a few generations of Indian, South East Asian and European scholars have brought to light valuable data regarding the trade and consequent cultural contact between Indian subcontinent and the South Asian countries, both mainland and the archipelago. The contact resulted in very profound influence – mainly in the spheres of religion, art, culture and society and the intensity of this “Indianisation” have led scholars to designate the area as Ancient Indian Colonies in the Far East (1) or parts of “Greater India” (2) or even the unchallenged dean of Southeast Asian classical scholarship G. Coedes titled his work as “The Indianised States of Southeast Asia” (3) (Les Etats hindouisés d’Indochine at d’Indonésie). The geographical situation of the Indian Subcontinent combined with its eastern sea-board; the monsoon wind facilitated this contact. The affinities of the climate and agriculture had made the contact easy and meaningful. Thus scholars have found justification in grouping together the countries of Monsoon Asia as opposed to Western and Central Asia (4). It is only in comparatively recent times that the region roughly east of India and south of China, but excluding Australia and the Pacific Islands has been called “South-east Asia” (a term which does not go beyond the Second World War) and the area was seen as an entity in its our right, distinct from the rest of Asia.

  • Coming of Age on Bangladesh Avenue: the Remaking of Love, Kinship and Property in Detroit
    Coming of Age on Bangladesh Avenue: The Remaking of Love, Kinship and Property in Detroit Sunanda Samaddar Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2015 © 2015 Sunanda Samaddar All rights reserved ABSTRACT Coming of Age on Bangladesh Avenue: The Remaking of Love, Kinship and Property in Detroit Sunanda Samaddar Encompassing transnational practices of marriage and kinship within the scope of domestic research provides a critical vantage point by which to examine how families are able to access, value and use education. Exploring arranged marriage as a register for larger social formations, this 2 year study shadowed the lives of Bangladeshi ESL students attending high school in Detroit’s inner city. As a ‘Coming of Age’ ethnography, this study examined the life trajectories of working class Muslim students navigating between the institutions of transnational kinship and the Detroit Public Schools. The competing and often contradictory agenda of multiculturalism and racial integration reveal the dysplasia of ethnic working class subjects living within the interstices of biracial America. This paper describes how multicultural discourse’s myopic engagement with the feminine served to mute the systematic disenfranchisement of working class Bangladeshi men while constructing feminine narratives of discontent. As a ‘coming of age’ ethnography, this 2 year study examines the life trajectories of young Bangladeshi men and women navigating between the institutions of transnational kinship and American urban education. Whereas the bodies of working class Muslim school girls became the sites for inscribing competing ideals of modernity, self-realization and womanhood, boys were condescended toward as enjoying chauvinistic privilege by the family.
