INTRODUCTION Cultural tourism has a special place in India because of its past civilisation. Among the various motivating factors governing travel in India, cultural tourism is undoubtedly the most important. For any foreigner, a visit to India must have a profound cultural impact and in its broader sense, tourism in India involves quite a large content of cultural content. It also plays a major role in increasing national as well as international good will and understanding. Thousands of archaeological and historical movements scattered throughout the country provide opportunites to learn about the ancient history and culture. India has been abundantly rich in its cultural heritage. Indian arts and crafts, music and dance, fairs and festivals, agriculture and forestry, astronomy and astrology, trade and transport, recreation and communication, monumental heritage, fauna and flora in wildlife and religion play a vital role in this type of tourism. Thus, it can be very well said that there remains a lot of potential for the progress of cultural tourism in India. Culturally, North East represents the Indian ethos of „unity in diversity‟ and „diversity in unity‟. It is a mini India where diverse ethnic and cultural groups of Aryans, Dravidians, Indo-Burmese, Indo Tibetan and other races have lived together since time immemorial. -

Empire's Garden: Assam and the Making of India
A book in the series Radical Perspectives a radical history review book series Series editors: Daniel J. Walkowitz, New York University Barbara Weinstein, New York University History, as radical historians have long observed, cannot be severed from authorial subjectivity, indeed from politics. Political concerns animate the questions we ask, the subjects on which we write. For over thirty years the Radical History Review has led in nurturing and advancing politically engaged historical research. Radical Perspec- tives seeks to further the journal’s mission: any author wishing to be in the series makes a self-conscious decision to associate her or his work with a radical perspective. To be sure, many of us are currently struggling with the issue of what it means to be a radical historian in the early twenty-first century, and this series is intended to provide some signposts for what we would judge to be radical history. It will o√er innovative ways of telling stories from multiple perspectives; comparative, transnational, and global histories that transcend con- ventional boundaries of region and nation; works that elaborate on the implications of the postcolonial move to ‘‘provincialize Eu- rope’’; studies of the public in and of the past, including those that consider the commodification of the past; histories that explore the intersection of identities such as gender, race, class and sexuality with an eye to their political implications and complications. Above all, this book series seeks to create an important intellectual space and discursive community to explore the very issue of what con- stitutes radical history. Within this context, some of the books pub- lished in the series may privilege alternative and oppositional politi- cal cultures, but all will be concerned with the way power is con- stituted, contested, used, and abused. -
MORE on “KAMARUPAN” Robbins Burling University of Michigan
Linguistics of the Tibeto-Burman Area Volume 36.1 — April 2013 DISCUSSION NOTE: MORE ON “KAMARUPAN”* Robbins Burling University of Michigan “Kamarupan” is the name that Jim Matisoff bestowed on a somewhat scattered and certainly disparate group of Tibeto-Burman languages. It includes the Tibeto- Burman languages that are spoken in northeast India and others from adjacent regions. I have long felt that the name is inappropriate for northeast Indian languages and I would like all Tibeto-Burmanists to understand why the name is so problematic. The term is derived, ultimately, from “Kamarupa”, the name of an ancient Hindu Kingdom that flourished about a thousand years ago and had its capital in the lower Assam Valley. Today, “Kamrup” is the name of a “district” (a political subdivision of a state, similar to an American “county”) of the lowland state of Assam. Both ancient Kamarupa and the name of the modern Kamrup district are indelibly associated in the minds of all who live or work in northeastern India with the non-tribal, Indo-Aryan speaking, segment of the population. Historically, “Kamrup” and “Kamarupa” have had nothing at all to do with Tibeto-Burman speakers. Kamrup District probably has a higher proportion of Indo-Aryan speakers and a correspondingly lower proportion of Tibeto-Burman speakers than any other district in Northeast India except, perhaps, for the Khasi Hills, where Mon-Khmer languages predominate. As a linguistic term, “Kamarupan” has two problems. The first, and less serious, one is that it is not a genetic term at all, but simply a catch-all geographical label under which to include otherwise uncategorized languages. -

Heavy Floods in Assam Have Affected All the 27 Districts of the State
SITUATION REPORT - ASSAM FLOODS NATURE OF HAZARD : FLOODS DATE: 03.08.04 at 9.30 AM Heavy floods in Assam have affected all the 27 districts of the state. These districts are Tinsukia, Dibrugarh, Shivsagar, Jorhat, Golaghat, Nagoan, Morigaon, Kamrup, Kamrup Metro, Darrang, Sonitpur, Dhemaji, Lakhimpur, Nalbari, Berpetta, Bongaigaon, Kokrajhar, Goalpara, Dhubri, Chirang, Karbi Anglong, Karimganj, Hailakhandi, Cachar, Udalguri, North Cachar Hills and Baska. Heavy rainfall over the state and in neighboring uphill states and countries for a sustained period since the last week of June has resulted in the rise of water level in the whole river network – Brahmaputra and it’s tributaries in the state. Large no. of villages got submerged with the overflowing of these rivers.The worst affected districts during the current flood are Barpeta, Cachar, Dhemaji, Dhubari, Goalpara, Kamrup ( rural), Morigaon, Nagaon, Nalbari, Sonitpur, Udalguri. The rise in the water level, breaches along the river & dam embankments, release of water from upper catchment areas (Bhutan), landslides and sudden change of course by rivers, aggravated and deteriorated overall flood situation of the state. The flood has also caused widespread damages to human life, property, standing crops, flood control embankments, tea gardens and other basic infrastructure in the state. Most of the wild life sanctuaries - Kaziranga National Park, National Parks of Manas, Orang and Dibru-Saikhowa, and Wild Life Sanctuaries Burha Chapori, Pobitora, Laokhowa and Bornodi were affected under the grip of the flood. CURRENT SITUATION : Overall flood situation of the state is improving with the receding of the rivers and less rainfall over the state and adjoining areas in the past few days and there has been no fresh damages reported except the increase in the death toll. -

International Journal of Research Studies in Biosciences (IJRSB) Volume 2, Issue 6, July 2014, PP 26-32 ISSN 2349-0357 (Print) & ISSN 2349-0365 (Online) www.arcjournals.org Amphibian Diversity of Wetlands of Bongaigaon District of Assam with a Note on the Morphometric Characters of Duttaphrynus Melanostictus M. Chetia1, D. K. Sharma1, S. Sengupta2 1Department of Zoology, Gauhati University, Guwahati, Assam 2Department of Zoology, Arya Vidyapith College, Guwahati, Assam [email protected] Abstract: Situated in the northwestern part of Assam Bongaigaon district is gifted with lot of wetlands significantly Tamranga , Konara and Dalani wetland is home of 12 amphibian species under 5 family. Of which 1 species belonged to family Bufonidae, 2 species to family microhylidae, 1 species to family Rhacophoradae, 6 species to family Dicroglossidaeand and 2 species to Ranidae. Morphometric study was carried out for Duttaphrynus melanostictus. Significant variation was observed in the morphometric characteristics of D. melanostictus with its Lectotype. Supratympanic fold was found to be present and parietal ridge is absent in case of specimens of Bongaigaon, while vice versa in Lectotype. Webbing formula found to be I0-1II0-1½III1-3½IV3½-1½ in case of lectotype, where as in the specimens from Bongaigaon it is I1-1½II1½-2½III1½-3½ IV3½-1½. Keywords: Amphibia, Wetland, Duttaphrynus melanostictus 1. INTRODUCTION Wetlands are one of the world's most productive and important ecosystems. The word 'wet-land' tell us that they are lands that are wet. These ecosystems fall somewhere between terrestrial and aquatic categories. They are more shallow and characterized by the presence of vegetation rather than open water.
