  • The Partition of India and Socio–Economic Transformations of the Mufassal Towns in Jalpaiguri District in the Post Colonial Period
    The Partition of India And Socio–Economic Transformations of the Mufassal Towns in Jalpaiguri District in the Post Colonial Period 1947 – 2011 A Thesis submitted to the University of North Bengal for the Award of Doctor of Philosophy in History By Swapan Kumar Bhowmik Under the Supervision of Dr. Dahlia Bhattacharya Department of History University of North Bengal October, 2018 Abstract The role of the Partition of India or the Second Partition of Bengal in 1947 is the most remarkable and diversified event in India. The Partition had broadly changed the demography and administrative structure in India specially West Bengal and precisely Jalpaiguri district which is too close to the international boundary of East Pakistan (now Bangladesh) and Bhutan and also Assam, Sikkim. Thus, the nature of demography of Jalpaiguri is different from other districts in Bengal. Besides this, this district has 151 languages of 40 Adivashi clans (tribal communities). So, the administrative district Jalpaiguri is a land of variety, specially in view of ethnicity. The Partition was followed by a massive influx of refugees from East Pakistan which was actually started with the Noakhali Riot (1946). Thereafter millions of refugees intruded into West Bengal and Jalpaiguri district in different waves. The title of Ph.D thesis - “The Partition of India And Socio–Economic Transformation of The Mufassal Towns in Jalpaiguri District in The Post Colonial Period (1947–2011)” aims to highlight the impact of the transformation in the border district of Jalpaiguri which is wide and valuable for its location from the administrative point of view. The year of Independence or the Partition (1947) brought the subsequent changes in the fields of administration, demography, economy, polity and livelihood apart from ethnicity.

  • Indigenous Physical Culture of Bengal During the British Regime
    Indigenous Physical Culture of Bengal During the British Regime Dr. Subhabrata Kar ================================================================= Language in India www.languageinindia.com ISSN 1930-2940 Vol. 13:6 June 2013 ================================================================= Abstract During the British regime, Bengal was ahead in all types of revolutionary activity, much influenced by different components of the then Bengali society. Those components were the influence of some great philosophers or thinkers, influence of akhra, bratachari and revolutionary movements, influence of indigenous rural games, great clubs and other physical activities of Bengal regarding physical culture of the Bengali people. Obviously, Bengali physical culture was very much influenced by revolutionary activities of akhras or clubs and at the same time it is proper to mention that in rural Bengal there was a great storage of indigenous minor and folk games. In British India Bengali people were very much fond of indigenous rural games and sports as well as bratachari dance and activities. Introduction From the middle of the nineteenth century, there was a growing awareness of the potentiality for a national physical culture that would raise Indian individuals and society from the degeneracy into which they were perceived to be sunk. For example, from the 1850s until at least the 1930s the nationalistic Bengali Hindu elite “strove to overcome its supposed degeneracy through the pursuit of physical culture.” The struggle to define an Indian form of body discipline was rendered ambivalent by the acceptance of certain core ideological values of a Western, and ultimately imperialist, discourse on manliness and the body. The a ha a and the Hindu mela or ed alongside and sometimes s uarely ithin the current of colonial education reform and “indigenous” physical culture movements maintained a permeability to Western influence, based on a deep appreciation of the cultural and political potential of the nationalistic gymnastic movements of Europe.
