  • Primary Education and Language in Goa: Colonial Legacy and Post-Colonial Conflicts* Afonso Botelho** Abstract
    Primary Education and Language in Goa: Colonial Legacy and Post-Colonial Conflicts* Afonso Botelho** Abstract Languages are a privileged means of social, economic and political mo- bility. In multilingual countries, like India, they are functionally dis- tributed and the relationship among the different language categories, viz. official language, mother tongue, etc., is hierarchical. Mother tongue languages evoke strong emotions. However, socially less prestigious mother tongues are often discarded in favour of languages useful for social and economic advancement. The language shifts at home, school and other spheres are determined by the social, cultural and political contexts. This paper examines language shifts in the context of primary education and language in colonial and post-colonial Goa. The language shifts and the consequent controversies in Goa are manifestations of two opposing forces: the instrumental draw of language assimilation and the primordial pull of language preservation. The latter regard language shift as pathological and ubiquitous; the former view it as perfectly normal. Introduction Goa joined the linguistic states of India on May 30, 1987, with Konkani, the mother tongue of 95 per cent of the Goans, as its official language. According to UNESCO, ‘ideally, the medium of instruction for a child living in its own language environment should be the mother tongue’ (quoted in Pattanayak 1998: 134). In Goa, however, due to the anti-Konkani colonial policy, not many Goans could study in Konkani-medium schools for the last few centuries as there were hardly any such schools. In post-colonial Goa, English and Marathi dominated the educational scene, especially at the primary level.

Arif Anwar Hashami1*, Ashok Kumar Sharma2 ABSTRACT Women are one of the important entities of any society, but in India it has a status like a goddess since Vedic era but at the same time there was few difficulties in her life. The worst situation of women in this century in terms of crime index leads to break our myths about the goddess position of women. Position of women cannot be analyzed only with the myths or saying by the people. This article investigating position of women in terms of her status in Vedic era, Medieval period, British era and after Independence. Review investigating the position through psychology, Rights, health, education, FLFP and registered crime. This article tried to find out the exact position of women of last century. Keywords: Indian Women, Health, Education, MMR, Rights, Notable Women Indian women’s specification itself makes them weak in terms of an organization as rural women or urban women, about middle class or lower class women, about Brahmin or scheduled caste women, about Hindu women or Muslim women. All these distinctions makes them weak through making division between them but it is her sign in the society by which she can be seen by the people like a person may be in favor of women who belongs to her community, So group and section also makes variation in her position.

  • Sub:- Medium of Instruction
    1 Sub:- Medium of Instruction BACKGROUND After liberation in 1961 the first Chief Minister of Goa (Union Territory) late Shri. Dayanand alias Bahusaheb Bandodkar opened Govt. Primary schools in every village of Goa in Marathi Medium to promote education in local Languages as medium of Instruction. The main moto behind this was to give top priority to spread education by making it accessible to all the sections of society, who have been deprived of the same, due to lack of facility in the neighbourhood. This not only ensured literacy but many of those who had opportunity at primary level went on to complete their High school and college education including professional courses such as Engineering, Medicine, Architecture, etc. In 1983 government headed by Shri. Pratapsingh Rane took a decision to make Konkani or Marathi as compulsory subject in all English medium primary schools. In 1990 ble Education Minister Smt. Shashikala Kakodkar took a decision to release grants to those primary schools which have switched over to Regional language/mother tongue as medium of instruction. After this decision many institutions opted to shift from English Medium to Konkani/Marathi as medium of instruction for std I to IV. The number of Konkani medium primary schools increased to 103 and English medium primary schools reduced to 22 only. While implementing the above decision Smt. Kakodkar also took a decision not to allow any new English medium primary schools in the state. However during subsequent years this decision of not permitting English medium primary schools was not adhered to, by subsequent Governments thereby permitting 139 English primary unaided schools, by year 2011- 12 having enrollment of 21472 i.e.

  • Topic of the Week for Discussion: 23 Rd to 29Th March 201 7
    Topic of the week for discussion: 23 rd to 29th March 201 7 Topic: The fringe goes ‘mainstream ’ Yogi Adityanath, the controversial hardliner advocate of Hindutva, took over as the 32nd Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh . Two Deputy Chief Ministers - Dinesh Sharma and Keshav Prasad Maurya and 47 Ministers were sworn in. Yogi Adityanath, the new Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh, is a well-known figure in the State. He made headlines in the past with his fiery brand of communal politics, promotion of the most virulent and masculinist Hindutva , the ups and downs of his relations with his party, the Bharatiya Janata Party, and the activities of his Hindu Yuva Vahini (HYV). This is perhaps the first time in India that a head of a religious institution has become the head of a political institution. This chief ministerial appointment can thus be seen as a metaphor for the cementing of the institutional relation between religion and the state under the BJP. Lord of the east In his mid-40s and a parliamentarian since the age of 26 from Gorakhpur, Mr. Adityanath is the mahant of the Gorakhnath mutt, or peeth , which for centuries, has had a large following mainly among the marginal working sections. The mutt is the seat of the Nathpanthis, who were known for their reformist bent. In the Hindutva spectrum, if the Vishva Hindu Parishad (VHP) occupies a position to the ‘right’ of the BJP, then Mr. Adityanath occupies a position which is far to the ‘right’ of even the late VHP leader Ashok Singhal. He would be placed on the same plane as Pravin Togadia, the VHP’s current chief, but unlike him, he is not confined to the VHP but is active in electoral politics through the BJP.
