Though a considerable body of literature tend to deal with the three issues separately, yet innate interconnections among them are also acknowledged and often discussed. The region has received streams of immigrants since colonial times.

North East Cane and Bamboo Development Council (NECBDC) ● NECBDC was incorporated with the objective of organizing the hitherto untapped bamboo sector of North East India. ● Formerly known as ‘Cane and Bamboo Development Council’ (CBDC) ● Why in news? : The Union Territory of Jammu & Kashmir will set up three Bamboo Clusters #Target_shots Addition National Bamboo Mission (NBM): ● Launched in April 2018. ● Aims to-increase area under bamboo cultivation and also adopting region based strategies to promote bamboo products. ● The NBM envisages promoting holistic growth of bamboo sector by adopting area-based, regionally differentiated strategy and to increase the area under bamboo cultivation and marketing. ● The NBM will be a sub-scheme of National Mission on Sustainable Agriculture (NMSA) under the umbrella scheme Krishonnati Yojana. Bamboo Flowering ● The ‘gregarious flowering of bamboo’ inside the Wayanad Wildlife Sanctuary (WWS) may pose a threat to wildlife in the Nilgiri biosphere. ● The bamboo groves in the Wayanad forest are the mainstay of herbivores in the Nilgiri biosphere during summer. ● The gregarious flowering may adversely affect migration of lower herbivores owing to the mass destruction of bamboo groves after the flowering. ● The farmers living near the sanctuary fear that the destruction of bamboo groves may worsen the increasing man-animal conflict. ● The bamboo flowering is considered a bad omen in several northeastern states of India, especially when accompanied by an increase in rodent population.

  • IPFT Puts Pet Tipraland Demand on the Backburner
    VISHNUIAS.COM WE PROVIDE A PATH FOR YOUR SUCCESS ANTHROPOLOGY SNIPPET-298 (Welcome To Vishnu IAS online ) (Research and Training Institute for the best civil services preparation in India) http://vishnuias.com/ 1 IPFT puts pet Tipraland demand on the backburner What is Greater Tipraland? ‗Greater Tipraland‘ is essentially an extension of the ruling tribal partner Indigenous Peoples Front of Tripura – IPFT‘s demand of Tipraland, which sought a separate state for tribals of Tripura. The new demand seeks to include every tribal person living in indigenous area or village outside the Tripura Tribal Areas Autonomous District Council (TTAADC) under the proposed model. However, the idea doesn‘t restrict to simply the Tripura tribal council areas, but seeks to include ‗Tiprasa‘ of 2 Tripuris spread across different states of India like Assam, Mizoram etc. as well, even those living in Bandarban, Chittagong, Khagrachari and other bordering areas of neighbouring Bangladesh. For the first time since its inception, the Indigenous Peoples Front of Tripura (IPFT) is not focusing on its pet Tipraland demand in the campaign for the elections to the Tripura Tribal Areas Autonomous District Council. The regional party, which had created a sentiment among the tribal masses with Tipraland (separate state for indigenous people) and other contentious issues, is now speaking words of harmony and need of bonding among the communities. The changes in the IPFT‘s style of politics came after it backed out from an electoral understanding with the TIPRA (Tipraha Indigenous People‘s Regional Alliance) last month and was compelled to tie up with the BJP — its senior ally in the State‘s coalition government.
