Malli Road Below Flower Patch, Alaichikop,Kalimpong, 734301, West Bengal, India 1. Structure of the Project / Staff the My Peace 1. Structure of the project / staff The My Peace Music Institute is the first project of My Peace Organization Kalimpong, a not- for-profit organization, founded by Chogyal Tulku (28) in Kalimpong, West Bengal, India, in 2007 (Reg.Nr. 329-I296/2007). The music institute is funded by donations. The staff consists of 3 local music teachers (part time), 2 Ladies who take care of organizational and office matters (part-time) and a night-watchman. Accounting and fiscal reporting is taken care of by a chartered accountant in Kalimpong. The MPMI is monitored and supported in management matters by MPO Austria, a non-profit association founded in 2008 (ZVR 143104693). 2. General aims • The My Peace Music Institute (MPMI) introduces young people from marginal backgrounds or orphans to local and western classical music and provides them with a free training to become music teachers or musicians. The completion of the training will enable them to find jobs in the region or country. • Simultaneously the institute contributes funds to the childrens’ basic education and seeks to promote those who are determined to complete the musical training to a higher educational level. • The MPMI performs concerts and contributes to the cultural life of the community, the students are encouraged by public acknowledgement • Social responsibility, team spirit as well as intercultural cooperation, understanding and support.is fostered. Presently (2013) 32 boys and girls are trained free of charge. All instruments are provided by the institute. Exams are conducted by the Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music (ABRSM) once a year. At completion of grade 8 a student is very able to work as a teacher. In the Himalayan Hills area qualified music teachers are in demand. Several are employed without having completed grade 8. The MPMI was one of about 80 international projects featured in a United Nations sponsored compendium titled “Music As A Natural Resource: Solutions for Social and Economic Issues” (fall 2010). 3. Impediments to the project’s further development and progress The region lacks qualified music teachers who would be able to well advance the students from grade 5 onwards. Presently the MPMI is not in a position to engage such teachers (eg piano) from outside the area or to finance visiting teachers from abroad. If this problem cannot be solved, the higher grade students will temporarily have to be trained in Kolkatta, Delhi or elsewhere which requires quite some funds as well. The very determined students would extremely profit from the chance to temporarily further and extend their abilities abroad. At the same time this would benefit the project’s future, because such a student upon his/her return would certainly be interested to work as a music teacher at the MPMI. To provide the piano accompaniment for the higher grade violinists at their ABRSM exams poses a serious problem. And the quality of it does effect the evaluation.

  • INTRODUCTION 1 1 Lepcha Is a Tibeto-Burman Language Spoken In
    CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION 11 Lepcha is a Tibeto-Burman language spoken in Sikkim, Darjeeling district in West Bengal in India, in Ilm district in Nepal, and in a few villages of Samtsi district in south-western Bhutan. The tribal home- land of the Lepcha people is referred to as ne mayLe VÎa ne máyel lyáng ‘hidden paradise’ or ne mayLe malUX VÎa ne máyel málúk lyáng ‘land of eternal purity’. Most of the areas in which Lepcha is spoken today were once Sikkimese territory. The kingdom of Sikkim used to com- prise all of present-day Sikkim and most of Darjeeling district. Kalim- pong, now in Darjeeling district, used to be part of Bhutan, but was lost to the British and became ‘British Bhutan’ before being incorpo- rated into Darjeeling district. The Lepcha are believed to be the abo- riginal inhabitants of Sikkim. Today the Lepcha people constitute a minority of the population of modern Sikkim, which has been flooded by immigrants from Nepal. Although the Lepcha themselves estimate their number of speakers to be over 50,000, the total number is likely to be much smaller. Accord- ing to the 1991 Census of India, the most recent statistical profile for which the data have been disaggregated, the total number of mother tongue Lepcha speakers across the nation is 29,854. While their dis- tribution is largely in Sikkim and the northern districts of West Ben- gal, there are no reliable speaker numbers for these areas. In the Dar- jeeling district there are many Lepcha villages particularly in the area surrounding the small town of Kalimpong.

  • It Is Well Known That After Independence, West Bengal Has Been Lagging Increasingly Behind Many Other States of India in the Field of Industrial Production
    The Political Economy of Decline of Industry in West Bengal: Experiences of a Marxist State Within a Mixed Economy Subhash C. Ray University of Connecticut Working Paper 2011-10 May 2011 THE POLITICAL ECONOMY OF DECLINE OF INDUSTRY IN WEST BENGAL: EXPERIENCES OF A MARXIST STATE WITHIN A MIXED ECONOMY Subhash C Ray Department of Economics University of Connecticut Storrs CT 06269 USA [email protected] Over more than six decades following Independence, industry in West Bengal has steadily gone downhill. Usually the Left Front government effectively controlled by the Marxist Communist Party (CPM), that has ruled the state for the past 34 years until its recent defeat in the state assembly elections, is held responsible for the plight of industry in the state. The party and its followers, on the other hand, blame denial of the due share of the state in the central resources by a hostile government at the center for industrial retardation. This paper takes a close look at the available statistical evidence to argue that the main reason for the decline is a direct outcome of poor work culture, political interference, and failure of governance that has resulted in industrial anarchy that scares off private investment in the state. While the Left Front has its share of responsibility, the newly anointed Chief Minister of the State, Mamata Banerjee, has herself contributed generously to fostering and cultivating this chaos by calling wildcat general strikes in her erstwhile role as the ‘one person opposition party’. The only thing that can revive industry in West Bengal is liberating civil administration from the grip of political party bosses.

  • A Study on Barasat City, West Bengal, India
    Journal of Urban and Regional Analysis, vol. IV 2, 2012, p. 173 -188 ANALYSIS OF MICRO LEVEL DISPARITIES IN URBAN FACILITY-UTILITY SERVICES: A STUDY ON BARASAT CITY, WEST BENGAL, INDIA Suman PAUL Krishnagar Govt. College, Krishnanagar, India Abstract: The regional disparity is a challenging issue to the urban planners, policy makers, academicians, bureaucrats and technocrats in the developing countries. In India, wide range of socio-economic disparities are commonly evident even in Class-I cities. Such an undesirable phenomena reflects on the spatial variation of quality of life, level of living as well as well-being and welfare of the inhabitants. Moreover, it is against the constitutional law of equity and social justice. The present study is based on the empirical observation focused on ward-wise variation of availability of and accessibility to socio- economic and utility services in Barasat city of West Bengal. On the basis of ‘Cronbach’s Alpha’ and ‘Principal Component Analysis’, entire set of data have been arranged into six factors of which first three factors have been considered to examine the dimension of socio-economic disparities and level of development in the city. Key Words: disparity, utility services, Cronbach’s Alpha, principal component analysis Introduction The development of socio-economic infrastructure and urban facility-utility facilities indicate the quality of life of the people of a particular area. The availability of all socio-economic infrastructures is solely not meant for the development until and unless it is adequately available corresponding to the population size and extent of area. Such an adequacy should ensure the accessibility to socio-economic infrastructure by the people.
