    'Its interesting situation between Hindoostan and China, two names with which the civilized world has been long familiar, whilst itself remains nearly unknown, is a striking fact and leaves nothing to be wished, but the means and opportunity for exploring it.' Surveyor-General Blacker to Lord Amherst about Assam, 22 April, 1824. DAVID SCOTT IN NORTH-EAST INDIA 1802-1831 A STUDY IN BRITISH PATERNALISM br NIRODE K. BAROOAH MUNSHIRAM MANOHARLAL, NEW DELHI TO THE MEMORY OF DR. LALIT KUMAR BAROOAH PREFACE IN THE long roll of the East India Company's Bengal civil servants, placed in the North-East Frontier region. the name of David Scott stands out, undoubtably,. - as one of the most fasci- nating. He served the Company in the various capacities on the northern and eastern frontiers of the Bengal Presidency from 1804 to 1831. First coming into prominrnce by his handling of relations with Bhutan, Sikkim, and Tibet during the Nepal war of 1814, Scott was successively concerned with the Garo hills, the Khasi and Jaintia hills and the Brahma- putra valley (along with its eastern frontier) as gent to the Governor-General on the North-East Frontier of Bengal and as Commissioner of Assam. His career in India, where he also died in harness in 1831, at the early age of forty-five, is the subject of this study. The dominant feature in his ideas of administration was Paternalism and hence the sub-title-the justification of which is fully given in the first chapter of the book (along with the importance and need of such a study).

Delhi, 2013 under press. FINAL DRAFT, not to be quoted. Both the affirmative action policies of the Indian State and the demands of ethno- nationalist movements contribute to the ethnicization of territories, a process which began in colonial times. The division on an ethnic basis of the former province of Assam into States and Autonomous Districts2 has multiplied the internal borders and radically redefined the political balance between local communities. Indeed, cultural norms have been and are being imposed on these new territories for the sake of the inseparability of identity, culture and ancestral realms.

The result has been confusion and confrontation especially at the local level on a number of issues.2 This observation by the experts of the National Commission to Review the Working of the Constitution reflects the present crisis of governance in the North East Indian state of Meghalaya. In fact, the main tussle for power and control over resources seems to be between the tribal organisations that have been designated by the Constitution of India as ‘traditional institutions’, and the constitutionally elected bodies.
  • Working Through Partition: Making a Living in the Bengal Borderlandsã

    Working Through Partition: Making a Living in the Bengal Borderlandsã

    IRSH 46 (2001), pp. 393±421 DOI: 10.1017/S0020859001000256 # 2001 Internationaal Instituut voor Sociale Geschiedenis Working Through Partition: Making a Living in the Bengal Borderlandsà Willem van Schendel Summary: Partition, the break-up of colonial India in 1947, has been the subject of considerable serious historical research, but almost exclusively from two distinctive perspectives: as a macropolitical event; or as a cultural and personal disaster. Remarkably, very little is known about the socioeconomic impact of Partition on different localities and individuals. This exploratory essay considers how Partition affected working people's livelihood and labour relations. The essay focuses on the northeastern part of the subcontinent, where Partition created an international border separating East Bengal ± which became East Pakistan, then Bangladesh ± from West Bengal, Bihar, Assam, and other regions which joined the new state of India. Based largely on evidence contained in ``low-level'' state records, the author explores how labour relations for several categories of workers in the new borderland changed during the period of the late 1940s and 1950s. In the Indian subcontinent, the word ``Partition'' conjures up a particular landscape of knowledge and emotion. The break-up of colonial India has been presented from vantage points which privilege certain vistas of the postcolonial landscape. The high politics of the break-up itself, the violence and major population movements, and the long shadows which Partition cast over the relationship between India and Pakistan (and, from 1971, Bangladesh) have been topics of much myth-making, intense polemics, and considerable serious historical research. As three rival nationalisms were being built on con¯icting interpretations of Partition, most analysts and historians have been drawn towards the study of Partition as a macropolitical event.

Blah Assistant Professor, Dyal Singh College, University of Delhi, E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The official use of any language by the administration and employment of the said language by the state whether through educational institutions and administrators as a standard literary dialect, gives it recognition. The Education policy adopted by the British and the choice of English being made the language of instruction throughout the country is made evident in Macaulay’s Minute of 1835 and is reiterated again more than a decade later in the Minute of 1847. From the very beginning English was associated with the administration and the benefits that it would bring but they failed to take into account the people who were unfamiliar with it. The categorization and later association of languages with religion, caste, community, tribe and class is evident in the various census undertakings as the official recognition became a determination of its status. In the Census of 1891, the Khasis and Jaintias are relegated as “two groups statistically insignificant”, considering the population and the number of people who spoke the languages associated with the communities.

    lR&IOlTIOI STATISTICS or BRITISK IIDll Cl890 • 1946-47 K. B. PlDll GOIBALE IISTITUT! or POLITICS AID ECONOMICS, PUR 411 004 Irrigation Statistics of British ~ndia - Cl~90-J9&6147 ~. Preface Under the comprehensiYe project entitled 'Historical Statistics of India - First Phase' the ICSSR approyed a scheme aimed at building up a historical series of irriga• tion statistics wae submitted by the Institute in late 1979. Broadly, three kinds of such aeries were eou~ht to be built up 1 as proposed in the scheme. (a) ProYince-wise and district-wise areas irrigated (Cl890-1946/47) under goYern- ment canale 1 priYate canals 1 tanks 1 wells and other sources. (b) ProYince-wise and district-wise areas or crops irrigated (1920·1946/47) under rice 1 wheat 1 barley1 maise 1 jowar and other serials and non-food crops1 and (c) Financial results of irrigation projects. The first two 1 namely (a) and (b) of the aboYeo haye been completed. The third was subsequently dropped as (i) on maturer retlections1 it was feared that it would develop into a major research work by itself inYolYing considerable reading, computation and analysis. The deci­ sion was taken by the Project Director in consultation with the research worker, an economic historian and the initial formulator of the echeoe. He also left the 2 Institute subsequently; (ii) part (c) ot the scheme could not be fitted into or presented aa a 'aeriea' tor both the teaching community and the researchers in the field et ;" India as originally concaiyed by the Project Director and (iii) the principal objectiye ot historical statistics, by definition.
