Received: February 18, 2019 Accepted: March 21, 2019 ABSTRACT: There is a common perception that British rule resulted in poverty, de industrialization etc in India. But as for as princely state of Jammu and Kashmir is concerned the British intervention resulted in positive outcomes. The British intervention resulted in modernization of various fields of Jammu and Kashmir. The introduction of modern education, land settlements ,modern health care, transportation etc. where the outcomes of British intervention. This paper highlights that British intervention resulted in modernization of Jammu and Kashmir not only in short run but in long run. Key Words: INTRODUCTION Once British became absolute political power in the Indian sub-continent, there policy towards princely states remained of two type’s i.e., direct and indirect policy. Direct policy was promoted towards the states which were directly ruled by British through their governors and indirect policy was conceded towards the states, ruled indirectly by British through their residents. The preference to bring a state under direct or indirect policy was mostly determined by state’s geography and economic resources. British annexed Punjab in 1846 and Kashmir being part of Lahore Darbar also came under the suzerainty of British. But at that time fate of Kashmir was determined by the need of time when British found sale of Kashmir inevitable because Punjab was yet to consolidate and North-West Frontier and Afghanistan unsettled. -
A Woman's Life for Kashmir : Irene Petrie, a Biography
(J BV Carus-Wilson, Ashley Kashmir 3280 A woman s life for K38C3 1901 A WOMAN S LIFE FOR KASHMIR Irene Petrie A BIOGRAPHY By Mrs. Ashley Car\is-Wilson, B.A. "WitK an Introduction By ROBERT E. SPEER WitH Portraits Map and Illustrations CHicago New TforK Toronto FLEMING H. REVELL COMPANY 19O1 THE CAXTON PRESS NEW YORK. \ \<\o\ C IRENE PETRIE TO MY CHILDREN MARTIN MACDOWALL, LOUIS CHARLES, AND ELEANORA MARY Introduction great missionary biographies are the records THEof incompleted lives. May it not be that the influence exerted by the record is the completion of the work that seemed to be prematurely laid down ? David Brainerd died at the age of thirty, Henry Martyn at thirty-two, Keith Falconer at thirty-one, Mackay at forty-one,, There are biographies of older men, Livingstone, Judson, Patteson, French, which have powerfully affected men, but a disproportionate number of the effective books have dealt with short lives. This life of Irene Petrie is another illustration of this fact. She spent four years in missionary service, and died at the very beginning of her work. It was one more incompleted life awaiting fulfilment in the lives of men and women who will take up the work which she loved and served, through the holy persuasion of her example and spirit. Irene Petrie was one of the first representatives of the missionary movement among students to fall in the forefront of foreign missions. The call came to her in 1891, -and in 1893 she sailed for India. In 1897 she passed away at Leh in the Himalayas. -

Medical Missionaries and the Politics of Health in Kashmir
International Journal of History and Cultural Studies (IJHCS) Volume 3, Issue 2, 2017, PP 39-50 ISSN 2454-7646 (Print) & ISSN 2454-7654 (Online) DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.20431/2454-7654.0302004 www.arcjournals.org Organizing Missions into Distant Lands: Medical Missionaries and the Politics of Health in Kashmir Sajad Ahmad Mir Research Scholar, Centre for Historical Studies Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi Abstract: This paper analyzes the medical measures initiated by medical missionaries in the second half of nineteenth century in Kashmir. It was a significant period in the history of Kashmir on account of various economic and political developments. Similarly the valley of Kashmir witnessed an arrival of medical missionaries who introduced the modern forms of medicine and later on this task was persuaded by the colonial masters while reforming and reorganizing state administration. This arrival of medical missionaries has to be studied in the larger contours of history. An aspect relatively neglected by the existing body of Kashmiri scholarship who studied these missionary measures in isolation and not relating them what was happening largely at the Indian subcontinent. In such writings the missionaries have been presented as messiahs for the people without going into the deeper currents of history. Thus it is under this background, this paper argues that these medical missions have to be understood not only in the larger narratives of the socio-economic and political conditions of Kashmir, but, equally in the greater issues of Indian history. Keywords: Kashmir, medical missionaries, colonialism, health and politics. The colonial masters initiated modernization on the pretext of modernizing colonies and empowering the masses at large. -
The Workmans: Travellers Extraordinary
The Workmans: Travellers Extraordinary MICHAEL PUNT (Plates 76-79) For much of this century that formidable American couple, Dr William Hunter Workman and Mrs Fanny Bullock Workman, have exercised a certain fascination on the mountaineering world. My favourite picture of the Workmans shows them at lunch, or rather tiffin, at 14,000ft on the Chogo Lungma glacier in the Karakoram. They are wearing pith helmets and sit formally at a little table, attended by a bearer wearing a puggaree ofthe correct design. They do not give the impression that, had you been passing, you would have been invited to take pot luck. In fact this picture encapsulates the strangeness of the Workmans. It is not only their achievement - the seven great Himalayan expeditions that they mounted between 1899 and 19I2 - that is remarkable. It is also the extraordinary lengths to which they went to conceal every detail of their own personalities, feelings and indeed of their lives generally, except where these were concerned with marching across glaciers and up mountains. During the past two years I have been fortunate enough to gain some access to this unknown region. I stumbled across what are, in effect, the Workman archives - a large collection of papers, photographs, newspaper articles and unpublished writings, together with the notebooks kept by both the Workmans during the expeditions. These papers had been in the possession of their daughter, the late Lady Rachel MacRobert. Their background was patrician. She was the daughter of a governor of Massachusetts and he the son of a distinguished doctor. In both cases their education included polishing in Europe and their marriage, in a ceremony of almost royal splendour, was the social event of 188 I atWorcester, Massachusetts. -
Their Footprints Remain
publications series Monographs 1 Their Footprints Remain Remain Footprints Their Their Footprints Remain At the end of the 19th century, Western medicine was introduced into Tibet, Sikkim and Bhutan by British imperial medical officers and Christian medical missionaries. Their Footprints Remain: Biomedi- cal Beginnings Across the Indo-Tibetan Frontier uses archival sources, Biomedical Beginnings Across personal letters, diaries, and oral sources to tell the fascinating story of how the new medical system became imbedded in the Himalayas. It identifies the individuals involved, including the local employees the Indo-Tibetan Frontier of the British, describes how the new system spread, and discusses how it was received by the local people of this region, whose own Alex McKay medical practices were based on an entirely different understanding of the world. It will appeal to everyone with an interest in medical history and anthropology, or the Himalayan world. › Alex McKay has a PhD in South Asian History from the School of Alex McKay Oriental and African Studies (London University). A former research fellow at SOAS and the Wellcome Trust Centre for the History of Medicine at University College London, he is an affiliated fellow at the International Institute for Asian Studies in Leiden. His research centres the history and culture of Tibet and the Indian Himalayas, particularly during the British colonial period. ‘Alex McKay provides a well-written and thoughtful account that reflects his wide knowledge and broad approach. This book makes an important contribution to how we consider the many issues in- volved in the introduction and spread of ‘Western medicine’ in dif- ferent parts of this fascinating region.’ — Dr. -

Printed in Great Bt'itain by Turnbull&,, Spears, Edinburgl, TO MY WIFE WHOSE FELLOWSHIP IN MY MISSIONARY SERVICE, BOTH ABROAD AND AT HOME, HAS ENRICHED IT IN COUNTLESS WAYS, SEEN AND UNSEEN PREFACE DR HODGKIN writes as a medical man who has served in the mission field, as an administrator familiar with all the hopes and hardships of a mission board at home, as a member of the Medical Missions Sub-Committee of the World Conference Continuation Committee, but last, and chiefly, as one ever eager to do the work of an evangelist. The book will, it· is hoped, afford sufficient, but not too much, material for those who have hitherto done little or no mission study. On the other hand, it is believed that the lines of Dr Hodgkin's treatment are sufficiently generous, and the references to other literature sufficiently full, to make the book an adequate basis for work by advanced students. Editorial acknowledgments are due in the fullest degree to the author, who to his enthusiasm added patience, and to the many medical friends who rendered help on both the manuscript and the proofs. -

155 Penetration of Medical Missionaries in Kashmir
The Communications Vol.27. No (01) ISSN: 0975-6558 Penetration of Medical Missionaries in Kashmir: Reaction, Response and Impact Tanveer ul Islam Khan, Department of CCAS, University of Kashmir. Abstract Medicinal History has been increasingly attracting the attention of historians over the past few decades. It is through this academic exercise that the knowledge gained by our ancestors over centuries of experiences, interactions and inheritance is preserved and made easily accessible to a broader readership. Health being fundamental priority among the hierarchy of human priorities, and pre-requisite for smooth and prosperous life, its status impinges on every structure of the society. Health and medicinal culture of a society is reflective of its, interactions with the outside world, intellectual status, receptions to exogenous influences, continuities in change and differences in the society, as medicinal culture varies among different sections of society as per their variegated economic conditions and levels of exposure. It helps us in understanding the changes in demographic history-stable population in pre-modern period and population explosion after scientific and technological revolution. This paper, though mainly aims to offer a holistic overview of health status of Kashmir during nineteenth century, also deals with how English Medical Missionaries penetrated in the valley of Kashmir and radically changed the scenario of health and medicine. Keywords: Kashmir, Health, Medicine, Missionaries, Dogra Rule The valley of Kashmir is isolated from the outside world by a massive chain of mountain ranges. As a naturally corollary Kashmir remained by and large immune from outside influences and developed a character of its own. However, it was with the establishment of Dogra rule in Kashmir in mid nineteenth century that the isolated character of the valley was broken and was linked with rest of India through a network of roads and sub-roads.
