NASIRUDDIN AHMED Member Ex- MLA, Kaliagunj 7 MESSAGE from Chairman's Desk Established under The West Bengal Minorities Development & Finance Corporation Act 1995, WBMDFC started functioning since 1996 for socio –economic development of notified minority communities (Muslims, Christians, Sikhs, Buddhists, Parsis and Jains) of the state. To promote inclusive and sustainable development and reduce poverty in all its dimension , the need of the hour is to formulate a comprehensive strategy, policies and programmes for the minorities. To this end it has also adopted a multi pronged strategy with focus on economic empowerment, women empowerment, educational empowerment, skill development . To realise this goal WBMDFC has implemented different schemes/programmes like Term Loan scheme, DLS scheme (For SHG), scholarship scheme, different vocational and job oriented training programmes. The corporation with a view to disseminate information about its different schemes, organises awareness programme in different minority dominated areas of the state, bring out booklet, handouts etc. The Corporation, with a view to provide marketing facility, encourages its beneficiaries to participate in different melas, being organised in and out of the state where they can sell their products. In short the Corporation is leaving no stones unturned to bring about a comprehensive development of the minorities of the state. I am pleased to note that in connection with its annual function “PRAGATIR PATHE” being organised by MAME deptt., the Corporation is bringing out a an INFORMATION BOOKLET of its different schemes and programmes. The book also contains other important information about the Corporation and its different personnel who should be approached in case of need. I think this book will provide an effective tool to bridge the gap of information between WBMDFC and the people, particularly the minority communities. I hope the minority communities will come forward and make use of this BOOKLET for their benefit. JAI HIND 8 MESSAGE from Managing Director WEST BENGAL MINORITIES' DEVELOPMENT & FINANCE CORPORATION FOREWARD West Bengal Minorities Development & Finance Corporation(WBMDFC) is going to publish an ‘Information Booklet’ on the eve of Minorities Programme to the be held on 5th December, 2017 at Netaji Indoor Stadium.

MITRA of the Indian Civil Service, Superintendent of Census Operations and )oint Development Commissioner, West Bengal PuBLISHED BY THE MANAGER OF PUBLICATIONS, DELHI PRDftii:D By THE GoVERNMENT OF INDIA PRESS, CALCUTTA, INDIA, l953, Price : Rs. 18-4 or 19 sh. FEw PEOPLE ouTSIDE realise that census is an administrative operation of great dimensions and, in addition, it is a scientific process. ·Indian census, in particular, covers the largest population in the world and it is also one of the most economical administrative operations. Census as an institution goes back to the remote past, but• it is no longer a mere counting of heads ; it involves extraction of information which plays a vital· role in the determination of many of our administrative policies. The facts elicited during the course of this operation yield valuable ·scientific data of sociological importance. In many matters it provides a useful guide for the effectiveness or otherwise of our economic policies. The · theory of population is iii ifself an interesting part· of economics. The census helps us to test ·and adapt that theory to .facts. There is also another significant advantage which I should like to stress. Census affords an opportunity for Government to reach every home ·throughout the length and breadth of this country ; little hamlets in far off jungles or perched .on mountain tops alike feel with prosperous and easily accessible townships the beat and throb of a pulsating administration. It is also· one of the greatest achievements of honorary endeavour ; for instance, the process of enumeration would involve visits by over a million honorary ·enumerators to about 64 million homes inhabiting 350 million .

  • Checklist of Fish Diversity of Patan Wetland, Murshidabad, West Bengal
    Harvest (online); Bi-Annual Spl. Environment Issue Volume 1, 2017 CHECKLIST OF FISH DIVERSITY OF PATAN WETLAND, MURSHIDABAD, WEST BENGAL Santi Ranjan Dey Assistant Professor, Department of Zoology, Rammohan College, 102/1, Raja Rammohan Sarani, Kolkata 700009 West Bengal, India. Email: [email protected] Abstract Wetlands are amongst the most productive ecosystems on the Earth. Wetlands are recognized for providing habitat, food, and protection to many different species of animals and also for their valuable role as nurseries for a wide variety of species of fish and shellfish. West Bengal has rich freshwater fish genetic resources constituting about 28.34% to the freshwater fish diversity of India. „Patan Beel‟, an relatively unexplored wetland of North-West Murshidabad, West Bengal, India is located between latitude 24° 2‟ 4” North to 24° 3‟ 20‟‟North and longitude 88° 1‟ 18‟‟ East to 88° 0‟ 15‟‟ East. The approximately 3000 bighas of Patan Beel contains forested area, some human habitation, and low but cultivable land. The area is unique in flora and fauna composition. An inventory of wetlands of any region is a pre-requisite for their conservation and management. Fishes are the keystone species which determine the distribution and abundance of other organism in the ecosystem they represent and are good indicators of water quality and health of the ecosystem. Knowledge of the species composition and distribution patterns of fishes is fundamental for conservation and management of native fish fauna. In this present investigation a checklist of the fish diversity of Patan Beel is prepared. This checklist should be considered as a working document and several additional species are likely to be added with additional survey work.

  • Epidemic Jaundice (Weil's Disease) Or Malaria in Kandi Subdivision of Murshidabad District in 1928
    EPIDEMIC JAUNDICE (WEIL'S DISEASE) OR MALARIA IN KANDI SUBDIVISION OF MURSHIDABAD DISTRICT IN 1928. * By S. N. SUR, m.b., d.p.h., d.t.m., Assistant Director of Public Health, Malaria Research, Bengal, and HARIPADA SARKAR, l.m.s., d.p.h., Assistant to the Assistant Director of Public Health, Malaria Research, Bengal. In October 1928, Mr. S. C. Singha of Panchthupi village of Kandi Subdivision stated in a letter addressed to the senior writer that " in the subdivision of Kandi a new malady has been in evidence; it is like epidemic jaundice." On asking particulars from him as to the place of occurrence of such cases he informed me that the medical officer of the local S. S. Charitable Dis- cured all the three cases which had come pensary " under his treatment. Several other cases were treated bv various other medical practitioners of the locality. The largest number of cases, some cf which proved fatal, occurred at and about Kandi. Malaria is less in evidence this year owing, I think, to the excess in rainfall. The cases of jaundice have cropped up during the break which has continued since the middle of August." The junior author of this paper was deputed to investigate the matter in the same month. He called on the Assistant Surgeon-in-charge of the Kandi Charitable Dispensary and three other private medical practitioners of_ the town. No acute cases of jaundice were available at the time and most of the cases that had suffered from jaundice had got over the trouble, while only one old woman had died.
