    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. According to Census-2011, 68.84 per cent of total population of the country lives in the county side.

Man enjoys the beauties of nature and lives on them. But he also becomes a victim of the fury of nature. Natural calamities like famines and floods take a heavy toll of human life and property. Man seems to have little chance in fighting against natural forces. The topography of the district of Darjeeling is such that among the four sub-divisions, three sub-divisions are located in the hills where disasters like landslides, landslip, road blockade are often occurred during monsoon. On the other side, in the Siliguri Sub-Division which lies in the plain there is possibility of flood due to soil erosion/ embankment and flash flood. As district of Darjeeling falls under Seismic Zone IV the probability of earthquake cannot be denied. Flood/ cyclone/ landslide often trouble men. Heavy rains results in rivers and banks overflowing causing damage on a large scale. Unrelenting rains cause human loss. In a hilly region like Darjeeling district poor people do not have well constructed houses especially in rural areas. Because of incessant rains houses collapse and kill people. Rivers and streams overflow inundating large areas. Roads and footpaths are sub merged under water.

  • CHAPTER Ill CHRONOLOGICAL HISTORY of LAND-USE CHANGES
    CHAPTER Ill CHRONOLOGICAL HISTORY OF LAND-USE CHANGES 3.1 INTRODUCTION A review of the changes of land-use pattern in Kurseong Sub-Division over the years, since the discovery of the Darjeeling area for its suitability as a hill station, reveals the various environmental factors that influence the degradation of an otherwise once a densely forest covered area in an ecologically fragile region. The study unfolds a plethora of man's heedless actions to nature, which have ultimately lead towards man's own destruction. The changes that have taken place and all that that have resulted through man's activities provide us with very important lessons which perhaps should not be ignored while planning any sort of developmental changes in the area. 3.2 LAND-USE IN THE PRE-BRITISH ERA The area, which belonged to the Raja of Sikkim till 1835, was practically covered by dense forest inhabited perhaps by a few migratory Lepchas in the hills and the Meches in the foothills. There is a consensus among the reports of the early travellers in the region that the area was entirely covered by dense forests (Hooker, 1843). Captain Herbert, then Deputy Surveyor General described the area in 1830 as "completely clothed with forest from the very top to the bottom". The only other land-use, though negligible, is worth mentioning, as it was the most crude and primitive form of cultivation known as shifting cultivation. The trees were not felled but stripped of their main branches and debarked until they died. The dead trees were felled only when required for building purposes or for fuel.

  • CHAPTER II Darjeeling: Historical and Geographical Contours
    CHAPTER II Darjeeling: Historical and Geographical Contours • Origins of the Name of the District • Physical Settings and Topography CJ Location and Boundaries CJ Geological Formation CJ Topography • Brief History of Darjeeling CHAPTER II Darjeeling: Historical and Geographical Contours 2.1 Origins of the Name of the District The name ofthe district 'Darjeeling' probably has Tibetan origin. This means where lndra's (the Hindu God) thunderbolt or sceptre rested (Dorje - the majestic thunderbolt, Ling - place, hence 'the place of the thunderbolt'). This was also the name of a Buddhist monastery once situated on the top of the Observatory Hill in Darjeeling (Mordecai and Agarwala, 1960). A L Waddell, who visited Darjeeling in 1889 informs us that Darjeeling means the cave of the mystic thunderbolt on the Observatory Hill from which cave Dorje-ling or Darjeeling derives its name. Earl of Ronaldsay says, 'In the interests of historical accuracy I should, perhaps, add that I believe the commonly accepted explanation to be incorrect. A derivation, seldom heard, but which I have the best of grounds for believing to be correct, is that which attributes the word Dorje in the first half of Darjeeling to the name of a Lama, Dorje-rinzing, who founded the monastery which once stood on Observatory Hill. The shrine was subsequently removed to the Bhutia Basti, where it remains to this day; but the former site retained the name of the place of Dorje-Lama.' According to another view Darjeeling is the corruption of the Sanskrit word 'Durjaya-Linga' means 'Siva of invincible prowess, who rules the Himalayas'.
