District Profile Sepahijala GOVERNMENT OF TRIPURA DDISTRICT PPROFILE SSEPAHIJA LA,, 22001177 1 | P a g e DISTRICT MAP 2 | P a g e INTRODUCTION Tripura, one of the full-fledged states of North-East India, had a long history as a princely state, stretching back into antiquity. According to versions presented in different editions of ‘Rajmala’, altogether 184 kings of the Manikya dynasty had ruled the state. Scholars on Tripura’s history, however attribute all the pre-fifteenth century kings to the realm of mythology though continued sway of the Manikya dynasty has been attested since the yearo1432. After India became independent, Tripura acceded to the Indian Union on 15th October, 1949 as a “C” category state and became a Union Territory in November, 1956. Tripura attained full statehood on January 21, 1972. Till then, Tripura was a single District state. Since 1978, several landmark initiatives have been taken by the State Government to strengthen democratic values in the state in General and penetrated the essence of democracy at grass-root level, in particular. On introduction of 3-tier Panchayti Raj local- self-governance model, common people of the state had been empowered to elect their own representatives at village level through democratic elections. 3 | P a g e Tripura, which had once a single District only is now divided into eight districts, twenty-three subdivisions and fiftyeight blocks. Besides, a special feature of the state is the vibrant existence of an Autonomous District Council (ADC) for tribals based on 6th schedule of the Indian constitution. The ADC in Tripura homes roughly one third of the State’s population. According to the Government decision, after trifid of West Tripura District, the Sepahijala District started its administrative functioning at the fag end of the year 2011 in the premise of one double storied office building, earlier used by Executive Engineer, PWD Division No.II. The District is bounded west by Bangladesh, north by West Tripura District, east and south by Gomati, Khowai and South Tripura District. It has a unique diversity in respect of terrain and also religion, culture of different communities, with a peaceful co- existence among all communities. The District consists of 3 (three) Sub-Divisions, 7(seven) Blocks, 2(two) Municipal Council and 1(one) Nagar Panchayat. The main source of the lively hood of local people is agriculture. A large number of people have taken rubber plantation as a source of livelihood. The Collectorate is located by the side of NH-44 and in the vicinity of Bishramganj market and motor stand. There are some important tourist places, namely, Sepahijala Wildlife Sanctuary & Zoo, Neermahal, Buddha Stupa and KashbeswariKalibari located in this district. 4 | P a g e DISTRICT AT A GLANCE Sl.

  • Existing Health Care Services in Tripura
    CHAPTER – IV EXISTING HEALTH CARE SERVICES IN TRIPURA 4.1 Present Health Care Services in Tripura This research work is oriented to provide an overview of the existing health care system and its utilization in India with special reference to Rural Tripura. Utilization is nothing but the satisfied demand. If at any given period of time, a part of population with a self-perceived medical problem thinks that the problem is worthy of treatment then they constitute a group with self-perceived need of care. Among those with a self-perceived need there will be some who will translate this need into the action of seeking care. Again part of those demanding will indeed obtain care. This group represents satisfied demand or utilization. In this chapter an attempt has been made to analyse the utilization of health care facilities in rural Tripura. But before going through the relevant details it is desirable to have a brief notion about the state profile of Tripura. 96 4.2 Tripura-State Profile a) Location Tripura is a hilly State in North East India, located on the extreme corner of the Indian sub –continent. It lies approximately between 22056‟N and 24032‟N northern latitudes and 91009‟E and 92020‟E eastern longitude.

  • Introduction Introduction
    ~ I I INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION Historical (short history) backgrounda Origin and present shape of Tripura State Tripura is among the most ancient States of India. The name of Tripura has a halo of mystery arcund it. Different perscns and scholars expressed {rarious opinions at various times regarding geonomy of Tripura. The original name of Tripura cannot be con- elusively traced back to any recorded source of history. Common belief is tl)at the name Tripura has originated from the goddess "Tripura Sundar!". But this is not correct, because the country had been known as Tripura even before the installation of the'· deity which took place at the time of Maharaja 11 Dhan'1arnaniJ<ya" in the first half of the sixteenth century. Others treat Tripilra as a • derivative from "Tripuram" nieaning end of three cities. There is also a popular belief that a mythical king called • Trip'Ur' named· his Kingdan Tripuras • after his own name. Analysing the name etymologically, some researchers have found it to be a co~ination from two tribal (Tripuri) words •twi' and •pra• which mean a 11 L·and adjoining water" so, it is very much difficult to ascertain the real reason behind the state • s name. The ruling time of Tripura Raja can be divided into three periodsa (1) Ancient period (2) Medifval period (3) Modern period. About 184 Kings ruled in Tripura upto 1947. Past history and old map of ·Tripura (Map Nos. 1, 2, 3) shows that present shape of the state has changed much from the ancient period. The present shape is derived from several ruling periods.

    NRC for Tripura Why in news? \n\n Demand for National Register of Citizens for Tripura, on the lines of the NRC in Assam, has been rising in recent times. \n\n Who are Tripura’s indigenous people? \n\n \n There are 19 notified Scheduled Tribes in Tripura, among whom the Tripuris are the largest group. \n The Tripuris are also considered the aboriginals as they migrated first. \n The princely state of Tripura was ruled by the Manikya dynasty, belonging to the Tripuri community, from the late 13th century until the signing of Instrument of Accession with the Indian government on October 15, 1949. \n Other important groups that are migrated at various times include Reang and Jamatia (via the Chittagong Hill Tracts from parts of Burma), Bhil, Orang and Santhal (from parts of central India and Bengal). \n The 2011 Census puts the number of Tripuris, who belong to the Indo- Mongoloid family, at 5.92 lakh, followed by Reangs (1.88 lakh) and Jamatias (83,000). \n \n\n \n\n \n\n What is the extent of migration by non-tribal groups? \n\n \n From 63.77% of Tripura’s population in 1881, tribal population were reduced to 31.80% in 2011. \n This followed the migration of 6.10 lakh Bengalis between 1947 and 1971, displaced from then East Pakistan. \n The migration was also present before 1947, though it became high after Partition. \n The Manikya kings had hired Bengalis from their estate in Bangladeshto work in its administration, and encouraged them to settle in the plains to spread settled cultivation.

They form an important place in the country and its political process. At present, Muslim minorities constitute 8.60% of the total population of Tripura. Tracing the origin and settlement of Muslims in Tripura, the findings suggest that most Indian Muslims are ethnically Indian since they are the descendants of the early converts to the Muslim religion. Again, Muslim rule in India and its relation to non-Muslim rulers in Tripura also played the role to spread Muslim population across the state. Comparative demographic and socio-political statuses are presented for various minority communities to explain the differential status of the Muslims. The relative backwardness of the Muslim minority is considered as a factor in the comparatively low literacy, and low participation rates in the socio-political field observed among the Muslims. The paper goes on to examine the problem of socio-political exclusion that has characterised the Indian political scene. The present study concludes with arguments in favour of ensuring justice and development for minority communities, emphasising the importance of government policy of inclusion and the positive role they could play in enhancing the condition of the all-minority community in Tripura.

D.) of Tripura was the pioneer in the Tripura dynasty to commit to writing by competent hands the oral tradition of the history of the Tripura state, which is situated in between Assam and Bengal *. He entrusted the task to Durlabhendra Cantai, the High priest, and the Court-poets, Banesvar Deva Sarman ** and Sukresvar Deva Sarman, who composed the first volume. Subsequently, some other kings continued to patronize the task, so that the book has run into several volumes of various dates (15th-19th century) and assumed an encycl opaedic proportion. The name of this famous work is Sri Rajmala, according to K. P. Sen, though “Sri” does not occur in any colophon.
