Investment in transport infrastructure projects involves a wide range of direct and indirect effects, out of which the present research work aims to highlight spatial network analysis and influence of road network in urban development. Materials and Methods: Spread and diameter of road network have been evaluated for five community development (C.D.) blocks representative from North, South, East, West and central part of North Twenty Four Parganas district respectively considered as study area on the basis of major roads. Space-potential map has been constructed on the basis of space-potential values derived at 12 urban centres throughout the district to assess the extent of regional accessibility. Again, it is of prime concern that the benefits of socio-economic facilities are not uniformly distributed over the study area and therefore categorical classification of two samples villages from each of the five C.D. -

Hungry Bengal: War, Famine, Riots, and the End of Empire 1939-1946
Hungry Bengal: War, Famine, Riots, and the End of Empire 1939-1946 By Janam Mukherjee A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Anthropology and History) In the University of Michigan 2011 Doctoral Committee: Professor Barbara D. Metcalf, Chair Emeritus Professor David W. Cohen Associate Professor Stuart Kirsch Associate Professor Christi Merrill 1 "Unknown to me the wounds of the famine of 1943, the barbarities of war, the horror of the communal riots of 1946 were impinging on my style and engraving themselves on it, till there came a time when whatever I did, whether it was chiseling a piece of wood, or burning metal with acid to create a gaping hole, or cutting and tearing with no premeditated design, it would throw up innumerable wounds, bodying forth a single theme - the figures of the deprived, the destitute and the abandoned converging on us from all directions. The first chalk marks of famine that had passed from the fingers to engrave themselves on the heart persist indelibly." 2 Somnath Hore 1 Somnath Hore. "The Holocaust." Sculpture.
