INTRODUCTION 1 1 Lepcha Is a Tibeto-Burman Language Spoken In
CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION 11 Lepcha is a Tibeto-Burman language spoken in Sikkim, Darjeeling district in West Bengal in India, in Ilm district in Nepal, and in a few villages of Samtsi district in south-western Bhutan. The tribal home- land of the Lepcha people is referred to as ne mayLe VÎa ne máyel lyáng ‘hidden paradise’ or ne mayLe malUX VÎa ne máyel málúk lyáng ‘land of eternal purity’. Most of the areas in which Lepcha is spoken today were once Sikkimese territory. The kingdom of Sikkim used to com- prise all of present-day Sikkim and most of Darjeeling district. Kalim- pong, now in Darjeeling district, used to be part of Bhutan, but was lost to the British and became ‘British Bhutan’ before being incorpo- rated into Darjeeling district. The Lepcha are believed to be the abo- riginal inhabitants of Sikkim. Today the Lepcha people constitute a minority of the population of modern Sikkim, which has been flooded by immigrants from Nepal. Although the Lepcha themselves estimate their number of speakers to be over 50,000, the total number is likely to be much smaller. Accord- ing to the 1991 Census of India, the most recent statistical profile for which the data have been disaggregated, the total number of mother tongue Lepcha speakers across the nation is 29,854. While their dis- tribution is largely in Sikkim and the northern districts of West Ben- gal, there are no reliable speaker numbers for these areas. In the Dar- jeeling district there are many Lepcha villages particularly in the area surrounding the small town of Kalimpong. -

Inspiria Excellence Series Multidisciplinary Conference on Future Paradigms in Industry, Inspiria Knowledge Campus, Siliguri (ICFPI-2018). Nov 01-02, 2018 COOPERATIVES – Marketing role in Rural Development Prajjawal Pradhan Assistant Prof. of Commerce, Darjeeling Government College, Darjeeling 734101, India. Abstract: Cooperatives are an integral part of the Indian rural economy. They have direct and indirect impact on agricultural growth and rural development. Individual’s traditionally posses efficient skill in producing products like milk, dairy products, carrot, red chili pepper, poultry farming, tea plantation, cardamom etc. Their market is not confined only to the district of Darjeeling alone but in different districts of West Bengal. However, these individuals suffer from a lack of adequate training and face problems in managing their capital and marketing their products. With the value addition to these local products through cooperatives the quality and life of the product increases providing a better return to the local producer. This paper reviews the evolution of cooperative movement, examines its role as a medium, a marketing institution for small individual producers and Self Help Groups of the rural areas under Kurseong which lies under the jurisdiction of West Bengal. Key Words: Cooperatives, Rural Development, Self Help Group, Local Producers, Marketing. I. INTRODUCTION state ownership can match the advantages of Co-operative organizations.
