  • When Tradition Marries Opulence
    MARWAR January-February 2018 COVER STORY When tradition marries opulence The extravagance, élan, and elaborate detailing of a Marwari wedding is like none other. It’s like transporting yourself to a fairy-tale land, or reading from the pages of royal history. Traditional rituals and customs are at the heart of a Marwari wedding, which surrounded by unbridled fun and festivity make for a grand spectacle indeed. Text: Benaifer J Mirza Band, Baaja, Baaraat… just these three words can sum up the mood and gaiety around a wedding. And, of course, a Marwari wedding isn’t simply a wedding; it’s a mega event, to say the least. Months of planning, weeks of preparations, days of ceremonies—all come together for that one special moment when the couple commits to eternal togetherness. Though the Marwari community takes pride in remaining rooted in traditions, there is often a modern twist to some wedding rituals. However, the crux largely remains unshaken. While some customs and rituals may or may not be a part of some Marwari families, here is how the Marwari wedding affair more or less flows: Pre-wedding rituals The celebrations begin with the Sagaai or Mudha-Tikka. This is held at the groom’s home, where the bride’s brother applies a kumkum-and-rice tikka on the groom’s forehead. This is a sign that the match has been accepted and sealed. Women are usually not present for this ceremony. Two days before the wedding, the bride’s and groom’s families initiate the wedding rituals by placing an idol of Lord Ganesha on a sacred pedestal, at the Ganpati Sthapana ritual.

    Center for Sami Studies Faculty of Humanities, Social Science and Education Visual Representation of Mithila Culture Through Mithila folk arts A study based on the search for cultural significance — Prameshwar Mandal Master of Philosophy In Indigenous Studies May 2018 VISUAL REPRESENTATION OF MITHILA CULTURE THROUGH MITHILA FOLK ARTS (A study based on the search for cultural significance) By Prameshwar Mandal Master of Philosophy in Indigenous Studies UiT The Arctic University of Norway May 2018 Thesis Supervisor Svein Aamold i Cover painting portrays Rama and Sita’s wedding Art by Amit Kumar Dutt Style: Madhubani painting ii Abstract Mithila paintings are at the center to signify the cultural importance not only in Nepal and India, but also in other countries. The artists of Mithila devote their much time to portray different cultural aspects and their importance, however, the artists have not got much recognition from the Nepal government. Yet, they keep on painting to promote Mithila culture globally. In this context, the present study seeks to explore the visual representation of Mithila culture through Mithila artifacts. The current study is the result of the field visit conducted in Janakpur and its neighboring villages in Nepal in June 2016. This study includes the voices of the artists, amateur artists of villages, scholars, teachers, social activists, and together with the researcher’s observation notes. Based on the theories of representation, the study aims at finding out how different cultural practices of Mithila are understood through the folk arts and cultural representation is needed to spread the message around the world. This thesis can be used to develop the tradition of Mithila paintings and to preserve the indigenous culture.

Advaniji, the leader of the Opposition and the Prime Ministrial candidate for BJP, Smt. Sushma Swaraj, former Chief Minister of Delhi and one of the leaders of the BJP party along with other BJP leaders. The meeting was not only very amicable but also very fruitful, and a joint declaration was signed at the end by all parties.

  • Organising the Unorganised
    Organising the Unorganised A Case Study of the Kagad Kach Patra Kashtakari Panchayat (Trade Union of Waste-pickers) By: Poornima Chikarmane Laxmi Narayan 1 We analyse the evolution of the 10 year old Kagad Kach Patra Kashtakari Panchayat (trade union of waste-pickers) based in Pune city, India and draw out its distinctive features in terms of ideology, structure and process in support of our argument that process and methodology are critical in empowering the poor, and in realising the transformatory potential of organisations of the poor. We also highlight the meanings of "collective ownership", "participation" and "empowerment" as they are understood and operationalised by the organisation. Section 1: The Genesis It was while implementing the National Adult Education Programme through the SNDT Women's University in 1990 that we first met child waste-pickers at one education centre. Inspired by the pedagogical method of Paulo Freire, we accompanied them on their forays into the garbage bins and soon realised that collection of source segregated scrap would offer them better working conditions and more time for ‘education’. We campaigned for source segregation of garbage in an elite neighbourhood nearby so that the girls could source the scrap easily. Excited by the prospect, their mothers, who were also waste-pickers told us that, "our daughters have never been to school, let them learn. We'll enrol them in school and we'll collect the segregated scrap". About thirty adult women waste-pickers were issued identity cards by SNDT for collecting source segregated scrap in the neighbourhood. Their earnings improved dramatically because source segregated scrap fetched better rates, reduced their hours of work and improved the actual physical conditions of their work.
