    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.

  • Chapter 2 STUDY AREA STUDY AREA
    Chapter 2 STUDY AREA STUDY AREA Sub-Himalayan West Bengal, consisting of Terai and Duars are spreading through the districts of Jalpaiguri, Alipurduar and plains of Darjeeling are taken as study area for the present dissertation. A belt of moist forests passes along the study areas, at the foot of the majestic Himalayas. The undulatingTerai and Duars landforms and temporary or permanent virgin elaborate wetland systems are forming a mosaic of tall grasslands, savannas, evergreen and deciduous forests. The slope of the study area is gentle from north to south and located at 25º 57' to 26° 36' N latitude and 89° 54' to 88° 47' E longitude (Terai) & 26°.16' to 27°.0' N latitude and 88°.4' to 89°.53' E longitude (Duars) with altitudinal range varying from 80 to 100 m above mean sea level. The entire region is made up of sand, gravel and pebbles laid down by major and minor river and/or stream (Khola or Jhora) systems like Teesta, Torsa, Jarda, Raidak, Jaldhaka, Sankosh, and several other small rivulets coming from the Darjeeling and Sikkim Himalayas and also from the neighboring countries Nepal and Bhutan. The river Teesta has divided this entire area into two parts and the western part is referred as Terai whereas the eastern part is named as Duars orDooars. Based on forest types and nature of soil formation the Duars region can be further subdivided into the small parts, like Siliguri area as Western Duars, the middle or Jalpaiguri part as Central Duars and the easternmost end part of Alipurduar is referred as Eastern Duars.

The project is still incomplete and there is a very little chance for the completion of the entire project as executed. The dam constructed aimed to control flood, bring lands under irrigation, generate hydro electricity, navigation, fishing and tourism which after the completion of the first phase is still unachieved and far from fulfilment. This paper is attempted to study the objectives behind the construction of the project along with its achievements and unachieved goals. Changing natural habitat with emphasis on the impact of the project over human life in the catchment area have been tried to determine through selected study of respondents and using Remote Sensing techniques. The changes of LULC attributes within the catchment area in due course of time have few striking characteristics along with increasing sufferings for the locals due to some changes in geo- economic environment. Keywords: Teesta barrage, flood, irrigation, LULC, geo-economic environment 1. Introduction 2.
