Vijayanand PREFACE The plight of the labouring poor in India is still in a pitiable condition. The National Commission for Enterprises in the Unorganised Sector set up by the Government of India, in has drawn much public attention to this state of affairs. The findings of the Commission was revealing and shocking. At the outset, it is pointed out that 86 per cent of the total work force in India, is in the informal sector. But, at the same time they contribute 45 per cent to the GDP. Self employment based on a wage at piece rate still dominate in the production sector. With the onslaught of the neoliberal policies, causalisation of labour has almost became the order of the day. Informal sector workers are basically poor and vulnerable, and belong to the lower strata of the social hierarchy based on caste and religion. They become victims of double burden both economically and socially. Corroborating with this, in the informal sector, sizeable proportion are women and majority of them belongs to the Scheduled Castes (SCs) and Scheduled Tribes (STs). Since this sector lacks reliable and efficient enactment of labour laws, they are not in a position to bargain with their so-called “masters”. To address these pitiable condition and to lower the scale of multiple vulnerabilities, the Government of India had initiated different types of rights based legislations and related activities. Very recently, the International Food Policy Research Institute had released its Global Hunger Index (GHI). It is a composite index and prepared on the basis of components like undernourishment, child mortality, and stunting. India was ranked 97 from a list of 118 underdeveloped countries, where the score and vulnerability of hunger go in the same direction. Apart from these national scenario, the world itself is heading towards an epochal crisis, because of the simultaneous occurrence of the world economic crisis and world ecological Preface / !viii crisis. The former is leading to a secular stagnation in the world over and the latter manifests as climate change. Both of then will lead to a chain reaction in the economy and society. The marginalised and poverty ridden people are the worst affected by these, and the world is recognised that decentralisation is one of the areas that stood as a potential resistance in reducing multiple vulnerability of the people at large. It was in this background that the Kerala Institute of Local Administration (KILA), Government of Kerala, prepared to conduct an international conference on Marginalisation, Poverty and Decentralisation. The present volume is an outcome of the said conference, held during 19-22 November 2016. The Conference aimed to deliberate the issues of Marginalisation, Poverty and Decentralisation, across the world. It also deliberated on lessons that local self government institutions, states and countries can learn from Kerala’s democratic decentralisation experiments. It also aimed at to make a common platform for discussion on the programmes for poverty alleviation being practiced in Kerala and its impacts on marginalisation. The present volume comprises of 14 chapters, fully devoted to the issues of marginalisation, livelihood and poverty; giving special emphasis to the state of the tribals, dalits and adivasis within India and abroad. Three chapters are focusing issues at abroad and ten from different states of India; especially the backward states. There is one chapter from Kerala, that addresses a livelihood issue of the state, i.e., drinking water. First chapter contains the inaugural address of Jaleel which provides an overall context of the international conference on ‘marginalisation, poverty and decentralisation’, the basis of which this volume is developed. He underline the importance of democratic decentralisation and participatory planning in the process of inclusive sustainable development. Second chapter by Elain et. al. discusses the importance of a housing programme (PAC) being practiced in the Southern Brazil. The paper aims to provide issues to figure out whether the Growth Acceleration Programme (PAC) has made an effective contribution to the social inclusion of the affected population. In the second chapter, the issues of allocative Preface / !ix efficiency as an end of decentralisation at the local level in Ghana is addressed. The author of chapter three, Dick-Sagoe from Ghana, serves in India, as a doctoral fellow in the Veer Narmad South University, in Surat. The chapter focuses on the financial ability of sub-national government to provide their tailer-made goods and services which meet the preferences of the Sowal Citizen in Ghana. The fourth chapter by ChoforChe explains the experience of decentralisation in Camaroon. The central question that the paper raises is, does the decentralised system under the Camaroon constitution of 1996, provide adequately for the accommodation of ethnic diversity of the country. The paper seeks to analyse the process historically. Mita Yasyca from the Women’s Study Centre in Indonesia examines India’s micro finance practices as part of the current global trend of financialisation of the poor in chapter five. The author bring up post-structuralisation approach gives us a theoretical understanding on how gender underpin money, capital contradictions. The study focusses on the issue of micro finance in the state of Andhra Pradesh. In chapter six, Thamilarasam from the Madras University is trying to depict the socio-cultural practices, income generation activities and marginalisation, etc. The chapter concentrates on the livelihood activities of the Irula tribe of the Nilgiri district in Tamil Nadu. The chapter seven by Ganesha Somayaji, examines the nature of participation of the marginalised people in their socio- economic development. It underscores inclusions in the ST as the only objective of political motivation. The chapter concludes that the efficacy of the state sponsored programmes aimed at amelioration depends on the degree of participation by the people. Bidyut Mohanti on Marginalisation Poverty and Deprivation illustrates the plight of Nayada, the hamlets of the Juanga tribe, one of the most primitive tribes in Odisha in chapter eight. On the basis of field survey the author reiterates that the tribals in Odisha are suffering under multifaceted poverty in spite of the reported growth rate of the state’s economy. Abhish Babu, in chapter nine, based on a field study, explore the reasons for the failure of projects for water supply in Kerala. The study revealed that the new diffusion strategy reinforced Preface / !x the structural imbalances in the society. The socially and economically marginalized people were always either marginalized or excluded from the project. In chapter ten, by Feroze, Ray, Johny and Ram, explores the issues of yak rearing relating to climate change in north Sikkim. The study reveals that the climate is changing, especially temperature is increasing at higher altitude and snowfall has reduced in the study area. It has immense effect on pasture and therefore the migration timing and duration, milk yield, disease infestation and mortality of yaks. The identified the various activities for reducing the impact of the climate change on yak rearing. Tanveer Kaur and Rajeev Kumar, in chapter elevan, describe the story of Parbati hydroelectric project in Beas Valley and highlights the issues relating to rural sustenance. The fragile topography of the mountainous regions of the Valley makes it highly vulnerable to ecological degradation due to the construction activities of such projects. The impact of all these changes adversely affects the local people and they are excluded from availing the benefits of the project. The major beneficiary of the hydroelectric power projects should be, the authors argue, the local communities in terms of job opportunities, rehabilitation schemes, education and health facilities, inter-linking

  • Nilgiris District, Tamil Nadu Connie Smith Tamil Nadu Overview
    Nilgiris District, Tamil Nadu Connie Smith Tamil Nadu Overview Tamil Nadu is bordered by Pondicherry, Kerala, Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh. Sri Lanka, which has a significant Tamil minority, lies off the southeast coast. Tamil Nadu, with its traceable history of continuous human habitation since pre-historic times has cultural traditions amongst the oldest in the world. Colonised by the East India Company, Tamil Nadu was eventually incorporated into the Madras Presidency. After the independence of India, the state of Tamil Nadu was created in 1969 based on linguistic boundaries. The politics of Tamil Nadu has been dominated by DMK and AIADMK, which are the products of the Dravidian movement that demanded concessions for the 'Dravidian' population of Tamil Nadu. Lying on a low plain along the southeastern coast of the Indian peninsula, Tamil Nadu is bounded by the Eastern Ghats in the north and Nilgiri, Anai Malai hills and Palakkad (Palghat Gap) on the west. The state has large fertile areas along the Coromandel coast, the Palk strait, and the Gulf of Mannar. The fertile plains of Tamil Nadu are fed by rivers such as Kaveri, Palar and Vaigai and by the northeast monsoon. Traditionally an agricultural state, Tamil Nadu is a leading producer of agricultural products. Tribal Population As per 2001 census, out of the total state population of 62,405,679, the population of Scheduled Castes is 11,857,504 and that of Scheduled Tribes is 651,321. This constitutes 19% and 1.04% of the total population respectively.1 Further, the literacy level of the Adi Dravidar is only 63.19% and that of Tribal is 41.53%.

Towards taking forward the urban reform agenda, the GoTN is now implementing the TNUDP-III with focus on furthering the reforms initiated under TNUDP-II. The Tamil Nadu Urban Infrastructure Financial Services Limited (TNUIFSL), as a financial intermediary, intends to assist the Commissionerate of Town Panchayats (CTP) in strengthening and improving the financial position of its Town Panchayats for effective capital investment management and urban service delivery. These towns possess a good potential for implementation of such financial reforms for which it is essential to formulate a City Corporate Cum Business Plan.

  • Anthropological of Perspective Tribes and Inter Ethnic Relationship in the Nilgiris District *Dr.K.Rajukkannu *Assistant Professor of Commerce A.V.V.M
    IJEMR – May 2015 - Vol 5 Issue 5 - Online - ISSN 2249–2585 Print - ISSN 2249-8672 Anthropological Of Perspective Tribes and Inter Ethnic Relationship in the Nilgiris District *Dr.K.Rajukkannu *Assistant Professor of Commerce A.V.V.M. Sri Pushpam College,Poondi – 613 503. Thanjavur. Tamilnadu. Introduction The term „tribe‟ has been widely used in anthropology, but there is no general consensus as to its precise definition or appropriate application. The Roman word “TRIBUA” meant a political unit, and was used to refer to social groups defined by the territory they6 occupied. institutions but not political ones. MAINE (1861) defined the tribe as a group which possessed social institutions but not political ones. MAINE (1861) characterized it as a group in which legal relations were based on the principle of status rather than that of contract. It is in this sense of a pre-political or pre-contract society, that the term is used by Charlotte Seymour-Smith (1986”281). The term thus “TRIBE” passed into general usages as a synonym for a PRIMITIVE SOCIAL GROUP. Among the social sciences, the „Cultural Anthropology‟ was identified until fairly recently as the study of „PRIMITIVE PEOPLE‟ and was distinguished from other disciplines such as Sociology, Political Science and Economics because of its pre occupation with „primitive societies‟. Gradually due to the broadening of perspectives, terms of condescension like „primitive societies‟ was replaced by the term „simple societies‟. The term savage was widely used in the 19th and early 20the centuries. The term „tribe‟ does not have any derogatory connotation; in the social science, it simply refers to cultures that are technologically less developed.
