Act, 1961 Our Mission Mission of Bolpur Manab Jamin is to actively serve vulnerable communities specially women, girls, children, disables, senior citizens, indigenous people with encouraging innovations for developing collective and inclusive social change in West Bengal . Our Vision Bolpur Manab Jamin envisages a society where people cooperates, empathies, trusts and become sustainable to protect social, economical and cultural interest of every living being and environment. From the desk of Secretary: Did we help the community? After every small step taken towards development processes either it be community meeting or observance of important day or implementation of a project, the big question knocks into our mind. But certainly there are long-term impacts of some programmes that we implemented today. We are very happy to see the glitters into the eyes of the children taking the nutritious food in the village centers. We are happy to see the faces of the farmers seeing their pulse field and the seed growers taking their part of profit after selling their lentil seed to Farmers Club and Bolpur Manab Jamin. We are also very happy to see the satisfied expressions of the mother and the father of an un-well child after getting treatment at no cost. The smiling face of the Donors, when their project has been implemented successfully gives us a feeling that we are flying high into the sky. The appreciations and small gesture of thanks giving toward our team makes us happy and help us forget the scorching heat, the high voltage thunderstorm, the quivering wintry weather and many more odd situations we have to face during field works. And this feeling gives us an immense power to continue our development process. We are very happy to draw an overview through our Annual Report of our activities done in the year 2015-16. Let’s work together to ensure development in our households, workplaces, schools, institutions, and community. Secretary Bolpur Manab Jamin CONDOLENCE MESSAGE LATE SUNANDA MUKHOPADHYAY Born: 18th July 1939 Passed Away: 2nd January 2016 “Death is not extinguishing the light; it is only putting out the lamp because the dawn has come.” ~ Rabindranath Tagore Sunanda Mukhopadhyay or we can say our beloved Sunandadi was one of the kindest, most caring people we knew, and always went out of her way to help friends, neighbours and society. She used to watch over our programmes especially Education Support for tribal students who are very much needy. We have many cherished memories of Sunandadi and will always remember her ready smile and open heart. Bolpur Manab Jamin extends its condolences with affection and deep sympathy to her Sons and the rest of her family. CONDOLENCE MESSAGE LATE GOPAL CHANDRA DE Born: 18th April 1948 Passed Away: 10th May 2016 “Though nothing can bring back the hour of splendor in the grass, of glory in the flower, we will grieve not; rather find strength in what remains behind.” ~ William Wordsworth Bolpur Manab Jamin offers deepest condolences on the recent passing of our Societies Advisory Prof. Dr. Gopal Chandra De. To say Prof. De was a larger than life character would be an understatement. He will always be remembered as an immense activist.

INTRODUCTION Bolpur Manab Jamin, a Non-Governmental Organization was established with the motivation to take an active role in the civil society development through different programme keeping in mind sustainable development concept. It is situated in a dry zone area that has Laterite soil and Vindhya Alluvial soil. The area has mono cropping with rice, which is entirely rain fed. The project area is near Santiniketan about 161 km from Kolkata; however, the area is underdeveloped and has a large population of landless farmers. It is Schedule Tribe and Schedule Caste majority area. We are dedicated towards different programme like sustainable agriculture, upliftment nutritional status, environmental protection, education support, right based approach, skill development training, etc. which will strengthen sustainable future and lead towards social and economic improvements of the social communities at national level. In order to achieve this, BMJ is committed to work with different range of stakeholders in order to foster cooperation and joint work for the purpose of achieving sustainable future.

Programme Objectives: • To improve Food Security • To upgrade the Nutritional Status of families • To reduce school dropout • Improve financial inclusion • Involve more people in Income Generation Schemes. • Increase environmental awareness ON GOING PROGRAMMES: Pulse Seed Production cum Demonstration Programme Bolpur Manab Jamin (BMJ) with the support of International Centre for Agricultural Research in Dry Areas (ICARDA) focused on training, information dissemination, technical and financial assistance for rural sharecropper and marginal farmers to cultivate Lentil for generating alternative income based on market economy & marketing, combat malnutrition and to improve soil fertility. Apart from increasing the production and productivity of Lentil by the participating farmers another purpose is to inspire other farmers in the adjoining areas to accept these technologies for the betterment of development and sustainability.

Each farmer got special variety of Foundation and Certified Seeds of Lentil (Subrata, Moitree, Ranjan) to demonstrate this programme.

  • Cultural/Yoga/Games/Sports
    4.1.2 CULTURAL/YOGA/GAMES/SPORTS 1. Cultural Activities The overall ambience of Visva Bharati truly demands exceptionality. Here learning is a holistic all-encompassing process rather than a regulated and stifling experience. Large portions of the campus are open to the general public as Santiniketan and Visva-Bharati are as much cultural pilgrimage spaces as they are educational institutes. The overall ambience of the university is a small town with students, teachers, administrative staff rubbing their shoulders in the common campus space with locals and visitors. It must be noted that entry of visitors into academic classes and spaces during the academic exercise are not permitted. Many of the university’s facilities and spaces – washrooms, roads, museums, parts of the core Ashrama areas during specific times – are open to public viewing and visiting. During cultural events and utsavs in Visva-Bharati’s packed academic calendar, visitors are allowed into the campus especially during the two major events of Vasanta Utsav and Poush Mela. During those times, a large number of Visva-Bharati facilities and spaces are open to the public albeit under careful scrutiny and control. 1. Poush Mela: Poush Mela is celebrated for three days in mid-December that takes place in the large Mela Maath opposite the ashram. Poush Mela is an annual fair and festival that marks the harvest season. The event is characterized by its live performances of Bengali folk music, especially Bauls, tribal dance (Santhali), firework displays. The rows of stalls here sell a wide variety of products like toys, garments, books, household items, utensils and local handicrafts.

Keywords social responsibility – higher education – Tagore and Santiniketan (Visva-Bharati) 1 Introduction Turn a tree into a lag and it will burn for you, but it will never bear living flower and fruit. (Rabindranath Tagore) Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) are centres of knowledge, intelligent tal- ent, teaching and research. Their ways of functioning and, indeed, their entire existence has both a direct and indirect relationship of responsibility with society, because they are the place where the future workforce is nurtured. Traditionally, HEIs were expected only to perform their core duties of teach- ing, research and extension activities; however, the scenario has now changed. They are now expected to also exhibit their societal importance through these three functions, by taking their knowledge to nearby communities, as a form of social responsibility. HEIs are, thus, not only a place where theoretical knowledge is imparted and degrees are awarded to students – they are also © Sarita Anand, 2021 | DOI: 10.1163/9789004459076_017 This is an open access chapter distributed under the terms of the CC BY-NC 4.0 License.
