Formation Dates of Indian States Formation Dates of Indian States Post India’s independence in 1947, there were 562 princely states. Most of the states acceded to India. Many of these princely states were transformed into new states. Later with the States Reorganization Act of 1956, Indian states were arranged on a linguistic basis. Hence, it becomes important to know which states were formed when. The topic, ‘Indian States Formation Dates’ envisages to list down the foundation days of Indian States and UTs. Indian States Formation Dates The list below comprises the formation dates of indian States. There are states that were formed as provinces but achieved statehood on a later date which is also mentioned in the table below: Formation Indian Dates/Year Status Before States s Formed By Foundation 1 Andhra November Part of Andhra State and Pradesh 1953 States Reorganisation Act, 1956.

  • 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.

  • The Land in Gorkhaland on the Edges of Belonging in Darjeeling, India
    The Land in Gorkhaland On the Edges of Belonging in Darjeeling, India SARAH BESKY Department of Anthropology and Watson Institute for International and Public Affairs, Brown University, USA Abstract Darjeeling, a district in the Himalayan foothills of the Indian state of West Bengal, is a former colonial “hill station.” It is world famous both as a destination for mountain tour- ists and as the source of some of the world’s most expensive and sought-after tea. For deca- des, Darjeeling’s majority population of Indian-Nepalis, or Gorkhas, have struggled for sub- national autonomy over the district and for the establishment of a separate Indian state of “Gorkhaland” there. In this article, I draw on ethnographic fieldwork conducted amid the Gorkhaland agitation in Darjeeling’s tea plantations and bustling tourist town. In many ways, Darjeeling is what Val Plumwood calls a “shadow place.” Shadow places are sites of extraction, invisible to centers of political and economic power yet essential to the global cir- culation of capital. The existence of shadow places troubles the notion that belonging can be “singularized” to a particular location or landscape. Building on this idea, I examine the encounters of Gorkha tea plantation workers, students, and city dwellers with landslides, a crumbling colonial infrastructure, and urban wildlife. While many analyses of subnational movements in India characterize them as struggles for land, I argue that in sites of colonial and capitalist extraction like hill stations, these struggles with land are equally important. In Darjeeling, senses of place and belonging are “edge effects”:theunstable,emergentresults of encounters between materials, species, and economies.

  • India’S Destiny
    40317_u01.qxd 2/9/09 12:48 PM Page 1 one The Environment Thou art the ruler of the minds of all people, Thou Dispenser of India’s destiny. Thy name rouses the hearts Of the Punjab...Gujrat, and Maratha, Of Dravid, Orissa, and Bengal. It echoes in the hills of the Vindhyas and Himalayas, Mingles in the music of Jumna and Ganges, And is chanted by the waves of the Indian sea. from rabindranath tagore’s Jana Gana Mana (“The Mind of the Multitude of the People”), India’s national anthem india is the world’s most ancient civilization, yet one of its youngest nations. Much of the paradox found everywhere in India is a product of her inextricable antiquity and youth. Stability and dynamism, wisdom and folly, abstention and greed, patience and passion compete without end within the universe that is India. Everything is there, usually in magnified form. No ex- treme of lavish wealth or wretched poverty, no joy or misery, no beauty or horror is too wonderful, or too dreadful, for India. Nor is the passage to India ever an easy one for Western minds. Superficial similarities of language and outward appearances only compound confusion. For nothing is obviously true of India as a whole. Every generalization that follows could be disproved with evidence to the contrary from India itself. Nor is anything “Indian” ever quite as simple as it seems. Each reality is but a facet of India’s infinity of ex- perience, a thread drawn from the seamless sari of her history, a glimpse be- –s hind the many veils of her maya world of illusion.

    Culture survival for the indigenous communities with reference to North Bengal, Rajbanshi people and Koch Bihar under the British East India Company rule (1757-1857) Culture survival for the indigenous communities (With Special Reference to the Sub-Himalayan Folk People of North Bengal including the Rajbanshis) Ashok Das Gupta, Anthropology, University of North Bengal, India Short Abstract: This paper will focus on the aspect of culture survival of the local/indigenous/folk/marginalized peoples in this era of global market economy. Long Abstract: Common people are often considered as pre-state primitive groups believing only in self- reliance, autonomy, transnationality, migration and ancient trade routes. They seldom form their ancient urbanism, own civilization and Great Traditions. Or they may remain stable on their simple life with fulfillment of psychobiological needs. They are often considered as serious threat to the state instead and ignored by the mainstream. They also believe on identities, race and ethnicity, aboriginality, city state, nation state, microstate and republican confederacies. They could bear both hidden and open perspectives. They say that they are the aboriginals. States were in compromise with big trade houses to counter these outsiders, isolate them, condemn them, assimilate them and integrate them. Bringing them from pre-state to pro-state is actually a huge task and you have do deal with their production system, social system and mental construct as well. And till then these people love their ethnic identities and are in favour of their cultural survival that provide them a virtual safeguard and never allow them to forget about nature- human-supernature relationship: in one phrase the way of living.

BELFIGLIO Norman, Oklahoma 1970 THE FOREIGN RELATIONS OF INDIA WITH BHUTAN, SIKKIM AND NEPAL BETWEEN 1947-196?: AN ANALYTICAL FRAMEWORK FOR THE STUDY OF BIG POWER-SMALL POWER RELATIONS APPROVED BY DISSERTATION COMMITTEE PREFACE The following International Relations study is an effort to provide a new classification tool for the examination of big power-small power relationships. The purpose of the study is to provide definitive categories which may be used in the examination of relationships between nations of varying political power. The rela­ tionships of India with Bhutan, Sikkim, and Nepal were selected for these reasons. Three different types of relationships each of a distinct and unique nature are evident. Indian- Sikkimese relations provide a situation in which the large power (India) controls the defenses, foreign rela­ tions and internal affairs of the small power. Indian- Bhutanese relations demonstrates a situation in which the larger power controls the foreign relations of the smaller power, but management over internal affairs and defenses remains in the hands of the smaller nation.

To the best of my knowledge it has not been submitted to any other University or institution for a Ph.D degree or any other Award. ( Manashi Sengupta) 2 3 Preface Ever since my childhood, I had been cherishing in my mind a desire to know the history of Socio – Political movements in details. And the present work – ‘Social and Political Movements of North Bengal 1911-1969’ had offered me a bright scope to satisfy, to some extent the very desire of my mind. The social movements which emerged during this period created serious identity problem of different ethnic groups of this region. The movements though started as a social one but ended as a political one. So the social problems were inextricably connected with the political problem. As a result the social and political movements influenced each other and finally led to the complexities of life of the area. I had mentally decided to work on this interesting topic and when I intimated this to my teachers Dr.
