The goal setting was done on the basis of identified rationales and the task was accomplished by dedicated participation of multidisciplinary group of scientists each committed to his/her own field. In 2001, the three Regional Research Stations extended adequate support in formulation of new Directorate of Research of Uttar Banga Krishi Viswavidyalaya (UBKV) born out of bifurcation of BCKV and since then it became a constituent of the same. This also incurred some static change in scientists group through optional discontinuity of few seniors and subsequent refilling by fresher. Under the present era of UBKV, the stations observes due responsibility to keep parity with the predecessors vis-a-vis setting new goals pertaining with existing agro ecological dynamics of the zone. Based upon the research need of this area under consideration programmes are adopted and carried out accordingly on seasonal basis twice in a year i.e. Rabi and Kharif. Apart from half yearly project formulation session, Scientists meet regularly for technical discussion on progress of running programmes once in every month and all issues related with same are covered duly. The present Report comprises of results obtained out of programmes under taken at the three research station for three consecutive crop seasons i.e. Pre Kharif , Kharif 2017and Rabi 2017-18. Critical observations, suggestions on this report will be cordially accepted for further improvement of the same.

The idea emanates from ACCORD's mission to promote dialogue for the purpose of resolving conflicts and building peace. By introducing a few new contributors from Asia and Latin America, the editorial team endeavoured to foster a wider conversation on the way that conflict is evolving globally and to encourage dialogue among practitioners and academics beyond Africa. The contributions featured in this issue record unique, as well as common experiences, in conflict and conflict resolution. Finally, ACCORD would like to acknowledge the University of Uppsala's Department of Peace and Conflict Research (DPCR).

In the first step, adaptation practices that had already been applied locally and/or had been previously introduced by national development, research and extension organizations were collected and documented by the project. The adaptation practices identified from the project area can be categorized as: a) agronomic management, b) water harvesting c) water resources exploitation, d) water use efficiency, e) crop intensification, f) alternative enterprise, g) alternative energy source etc. From this preliminary list, those adaptation options to be further promoted and/or replicated were selected through a sequence of evaluation processes at different levels starting from upazila-level DMC members, Upazila level Technical Implementation Groups (UTIWG) and National level Technical Implementation Working Groups (NTIWG). First consultative meetings and brief feed back workshops were also organized with the national research institutions (BARI, BRRI, BLRI and BFRI) and developmental organizations.

  • Land Tenures in Cooch Behar District, West Bengal: a Study of Kalmandasguri Village Ranjini Basu*
    RESEARCH ARTICLE Land Tenures in Cooch Behar District, West Bengal: A Study of Kalmandasguri Village Ranjini Basu* Abstract: This paper describes and analyses changes in land tenure in Cooch Behar district, West Bengal. It does so by focussing on land holdings and tenures in one village, Kalmandasguri. The paper traces these changes from secondary historical material, oral accounts, and from village-level data gathered in Kalmandasguri in 2005 and 2010. Specifically, the paper studies the following four interrelated issues: (i) land tenure in the princely state of Cooch Behar; (ii) land tenure in pre-land-reform Kalmandasguri; (iii) the implementation and impact of land reform in Kalmandasguri; and (iv) the challenges ahead with respect to the land system in Kalmandasguri. The paper shows that an immediate, and dramatic, consequence of land reform was to establish a vastly more equitable landholding structure in Kalmandasguri. Keywords: Kalmandasguri, Cooch Behar, West Bengal, sharecropping, princely states, history of land tenure, land reform, village studies, land rights, panel study. Introduction This paper describes and analyses changes in land tenure in Cooch Behar district, West Bengal.1 It does so by focussing on land holdings and tenures in one village, Kalmandasguri.2 The paper traces these changes by drawing from secondary historical material, oral accounts, and from village-level data gathered in Kalmandasguri in 2005 and 2010. Peasant struggle against oppressive tenures has, of course, a long history in the areas that constitute the present state of West Bengal (Dasgupta 1984, Bakshi 2015). * Research Scholar, Tata Institute of Social Sciences, [email protected] 1 Cooch Behar is spelt in various ways.

The term ‘circulation’ refers to temporary cyclical movement of a person or a group of person with no declared intention of permanent change of residence. It always ends in the place of origin. The study area, Cooch Behar district of West Bengal, India ranked 11 out of 19 districts (HDR, 2004) of West Bengal proves its incredible backwardness in every aspect. Inadequate employment opportunity due to industrial backwardness, inherited fragmented landholdings, minimum returns from agricultural activities, growing price of necessary commodities and increasing consumerist ideology have compelled simple rural male of the district to migrate in search of work elsewhere. In rural society of Cooch Behar district; women generally participate in food processing, child care, nursing, gossiping, and intensive agricultural task as helper. Temporary absence of man affects social status and life style of the women who are left behind both positively and negatively.

(USA) Online ISSN: 2249-460x & Print ISSN: 0975-587X Gorkha Identity and Separate Statehood Movement By Dr. Anil Kumar Sarkar ABN Seal College, India Introduction- The present Darjeeling District was formed in 1866 where Kalimpong was transformed to the Darjeeling District. It is to be noted that during Bhutanese regime Kalimpong was within the Western Duars. After the Anglo-Bhutanese war 1866 Kalimpong was transferred to Darjeeling District and the western Duars was transferred to Jalpaiguri District of the undivided Bengal. Hence the Darjeeling District was formed with the ceded territories of Sikkim and Bhutan. From the very beginning both Darjeeling and Western Duars were treated excluded area. The population of the Darjeeling was Composed of Lepchas, Nepalis, and Bhotias etc. Mech- Rajvamsis are found in the Terai plain. Presently, Nepalese are the majority group of population. With the introduction of the plantation economy and developed agricultural system, the British administration encouraged Nepalese to Settle in Darjeeling District. It appears from the census Report of 1901 that 61% population of Darjeeling belonged to Nepali community.
