Pray for the Peace of Jerusalem (India) Psalm 122:6 10 Volume 6 Issue 8 August 2016 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem (India) Psalm 122:6 Friends Focus August 2016 1 Front Line... n 15th of this month we are celebrating the 70th Independence Day of our motherland. There were many who sacrificed their yesterday for Oour today. Ordinary men and women with love and passion filled their hearts for their motherland shook the foundation of an empire on which the sun never set. India has grown leap and bound in its 70 years of independence from the bondage of the British empire. The country which produced nothing then, reaches the space now. India is growing in its economic power and today become the fastest growing economy in the world. It is the most populous democracy in the world. Lot of social churning takes place and the marginalized and downtrodden communities are striving for their place in the country. We have to praise God for all who made a difference in the growth of this great nation. Paradoxically there is another India which is still craving for its share in the society. Bonded labour, child labour, malnutrition, poverty, child marriage, alcoholism, domestic violence, violence against the women and the weaker sections of the society, discord in the society, extremism, terrorism and many other social evils are plagued the nation. India is not able to be proud about its achievement on Human Development Index. It is hovering around 130 for few years now out of 188 nations. India is having the largest illiterate population. ¼ of its people are living below poverty line. The large population of this nation is yet to hear about the Saviour and His gift of salvation by grace through faith. In the month of India’s independence let us reiterate our commitment to pray that the country may be delivered from the ills afflicting this nation. God has given us a powerful weapon in the form of prayer to deliver this nation from the challenges it is facing. Let us pray for an India which is prosperous and knowing Christ. 2Ch 7:14 "if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.

Summary: The Santals who constitute one of the largest communities in India belong to the Austro- Asiatie linguistic group. They have managed to keep their language and their traditional system of values as well. Nevertheless, their attempt to forge a new identity has been expressed by developing new attitudes towards medicine, politics and religion. In the four aricles collected in this essay, deal with the relationship of the Santals to some other trbal communities and the surrounding Hindu society. Sammendrag: Santalene som utgjør en av de tallmessig største stammefolkene i India, tilhører den austro- asiatiske språkgrppen. De har klar å beholde sitt språk og likeså mye av sine tradisjonelle verdisystemer. Ikke desto mindre, har de også forsøkt å utvikle en ny identitet. Dette blir uttrkt gjennom nye ideer og holdninger til medisin, politikk og religion. I de fire artiklene i dette essayet, blir ulike aspekter ved santalene sitt forhold til andre stammesamfunn og det omliggende hindu samfunnet behandlet.

  • Ethnicity and Tribal Struggles for Self-Determination in Tripura
    Ethnicity and Tribal Struggles for Self-Determination in Tripura Dr. Lincoln Reang Assistant Professor, Department of History,Tripura University (India) ABSTRACT Tripura is a small State located in the Northeastern parts of India, bounded by Bangladesh on its north, south and west, while it share its border on the eastern side with the state of Assam and Mizoram. Autonomy struggles increasingly generate a fair amount of violence. In Tripura, self-determination movements have turned into armed struggles, triggering spirals of increased violence. Recently, the indigenous tribes for an aspiration to self- determination demanded for the right to establish a separate territorial state, or rather to obtain some form of autonomy within an existing state-structure. Although, the formation of Tripura Tribal Areas Autonomous District Council (TTAADC) under the Sixth Schedule of the constitution of India is believed to have fulfilled the long cherished dream of the tribal’s of Tripura who have for long clamored for self-determination (autonomy) for their socio-economic upliftment. But, TTAADC hardly has been successful to make any headway in finding solutions to any basic problems of the tribal’s. Key Words: Reang, Ethnicity, Autonomy, Self-Determination, TTAADC. INTRODUCTION Regionalism along social and ethnic lines has been a dominant development in the years since Independence. Ethnic self-consciousness and its consolidation and asserting along the lines of tribe, community or language groups have become increasingly manifest in the recent years in the entire Northeastern region. Ethnic clash, natural calamities, religious confrontation, armed conflict, poverty etc. form the core issue. This problem prevails in almost all the societies and states.

Nothing significant has ever changed in the tribal villages except that of penetration of party politics, growing de-fragmentation in the families/communities, heavy inflow of funds with least visible impacts, and increasing number of NGOs claiming empowering the gram sabhas. Question now arises, are the tribes the animals for our unprecedented experimentation, or do we respect them as equal human beings deserving to ‘determine themselves’ to rule, to govern their lives and resources? Public institutions, more often unaccountable, of the ‘mainstream’ seem to have dearth of willingness on the later question. Where do we want to land then? Tribal self-rule first and foremost is a peculiar area to understand, to work in. I so far have encountered the civil society actors
