The areas given have been obtained from the District Gazetteers under the orders of Government: where the y differ from those given in 1901, the change is due to revised survey : the area shown for Naga Hills, which is the same as in 1901, is for the surveyed area only and excludes the previously unadministered territory added since 1901, the area of which is unknown.

  • Tribes in India
    SIXTH SEMESTER (HONS) PAPER: DSE3T/ UNIT-I TRIBES IN INDIA Brief History: The tribal population is found in almost all parts of the world. India is one of the two largest concentrations of tribal population. The tribal community constitutes an important part of Indian social structure. Tribes are earliest communities as they are the first settlers. The tribal are said to be the original inhabitants of this land. These groups are still in primitive stage and often referred to as Primitive or Adavasis, Aborigines or Girijans and so on. The tribal population in India, according to 2011 census is 8.6%. At present India has the second largest population in the world next to Africa. Our most of the tribal population is concentrated in the eastern (West Bengal, Orissa, Bihar, Jharkhand) and central (Madhya Pradesh, Chhattishgarh, Andhra Pradesh) tribal belt. Among the major tribes, the population of Bhil is about six million followed by the Gond (about 5 million), the Santal (about 4 million), and the Oraon (about 2 million). Tribals are called variously in different countries. For instance, in the United States of America, they are known as ‘Red Indians’, in Australia as ‘Aborigines’, in the European countries as ‘Gypsys’ , in the African and Asian countries as ‘Tribals’. The term ‘tribes’ in the Indian context today are referred as ‘Scheduled Tribes’. These communities are regarded as the earliest among the present inhabitants of India. And it is considered that they have survived here with their unchanging ways of life for centuries. Many of the tribals are still in a primitive stage and far from the impact of modern civilization.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY With the Government of Bangladesh driving its National Sanitation Campaign from 2003-2012, Bangladesh has made significant progress in reducing open defecation, from 34 percent in 1990 to just once percent of the national population in 20151. Despite these achievements, much remains to be done if Bangladesh is to achieve universal improved2 sanitation coverage by 2030, in accordance with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Bangladesh’s current rate of improved sanitation is 61 percent, growing at only 1.1 percent annually. To achieve the SDGs, Bangladesh will need to provide almost 50 million rural people with access to improved sanitation, and ensure services are extended to Bangladesh’s rural poor. Many households in rural Bangladesh do not have sufficient cash on hand to upgrade sanitation systems, but can afford the cost if they are able to spread the cost over time.

  • Index of Fieldwork in India 1986 Peter Cooke These Recordings Were
    Index of Fieldwork in India 1986 Peter Cooke These recordings were made in 1986 during a visit funded by the Indian High Commission through the auspices of the then functioning Inter University Circuit for Indian Classical Music. The first part of the visit was spent visiting various teaching institutions in India and meeting with highly regarded classical musicians. When this tour finished I remained in India since I was interested in researching the use of the bagpipe in India: this included the Scottish Highland bagpipe which over two centuries was diffusing throughout India and which was played in many Indian army, police and school bands, but also in the indigenous bagpipe which had received rare mention in the scholarly press. After Delhi my visit took me to the foothills of the Himalayas (Almora district) and to Rajasthan where I had arranged to meet with Komal Kothari, the late director of the Rajasthani Folk Music Insitute. We first met at a camp at Dungargarh in the Rajasthan desert where he had assembled a small team of musicians in connection with the filming of a folk drama but then we returned to his home in Jodhpur where numerous musicians came to visit and we enjoyed long hours recording and discussing music together. This latter part included the recording of long epic tales played on the indigenous bagpipe by Bhopa musicians who sang and narrated as they played. The recordings were made on a stellavox stereo reel-to-reel machine with (usually) a crossed-pair of Sennheiser microphones. On return I discovered that a fault in the wiring of one of the microphones had resulted in the stereo recordings being 180 degrees out of phase.

ISEC works with central, state and local governments as well as international agencies by undertaking systematic studies of resource potential, identifying factors influencing growth and examining measures for reducing poverty. The thrust areas of research include state and local economic policies, issues relating to sociological and demographic transition, environmental issues and fiscal, administrative and political decentralization and governance. It pursues fruitful contacts with other institutions and scholars devoted to social science research through collaborative research programmes, seminars, etc. The Working Paper Series provides an opportunity for ISEC faculty, visiting fellows and PhD scholars to discuss their ideas and research work before publication and to get feedback from their peer group. Papers selected for publication in the series present empirical analyses and generally deal with wider issues of public policy at a sectoral, regional or national level.
