To Ratika Yumnam National Youth President National People’S Party (NPP) To Ratika Yumnam National Youth President National People’s Party (NPP) Subject: Condemnation of Mr. Yumnam Devjit for communal provocation against Pangal minority of Manipur Dear Ms Ratika Yumnam, It has come to our notice that Mr. Yumnam Devjit, S/o Mr Yumnam Joykumar who is a party member of NPP and is currently the Deputy Chief Minister of the state under the BJP-NPF-NPP coalition government in Manipur and brother of Ms. Ratika Yumnam (D/o Mr. Yumnam Joykumar), National Youth President, NPP has created a tense situation among the citizens of Manipur with communal undertones. Mr. Yumnam Devjit, on 2nd September 2017, the auspicious day of Eid-ul-adha, had posted a status update in his facebook account stating that Qurbani, according to him, is nothing but training the Muslims (Pangals in this context) to kill people. The original Facebook post reads thus: “Kurbani Kaina, sha hatpa, mi hatpa heinaba practice touhanbani ni. Atei keim nte.” Since then many civil bodies of Manipur have poured in condemnation regarding the said statement by Mr. Yumnam Devjit. On 3th September 2017, the Manipur Muslim Welfare Organization (MMWO) submitted a complaint against Mr. Yumnam Devjit Singh at the Cyber Crime Police Unit, Imphal. The next day, there was a brief road blockade at the Hatta area in the evening demanding Mr. Yumnam Devjit's punishment. The Muslim Council Manipur, the All Manipur Muslim Development Committee and the Lilong local council (Thoubal district) of All India Tanzeem-e- Insaaf also demanded the state government to take action against Devjit for hurting the religious sentiments of the Pangals of the state. The All Manipur Muslim Organization Coordinating Committee (AMMOCC), on 5th September 2017, has also lodged a complaint against Devjit with the Cyber Crime Police Unit, Imphal. Prominent student bodies like All Manipur Students’ Union (AMSU) and Pangal Students’ Organisation (PSO) have also condemned the communal statement of Mr. Yumnam Devjit. Unfortunately the Cyber Crime Police Unit of Imphal has declined the complaint filed by the civil bodies on the ground that the case cannot be taken under the Information Technology Act, 2000 and has refused to file an FIR against Mr. Yumnam Devjit. It is a known fact that the Muslims in Manipur, the Pangals/Meitei-Pangals, have been living in Manipur for many generations. Muslim settlement in Manipur started in 1606 A.D. during the reign of king Khagemba (1597-1652) and the incoming Muslims were permeated in the four districts of Manipur namely Imphal East, Imphal West, Thoubal and Bishenpur. The community formation of Pangals began through kinship relation with the Meiteis by marriage and thus they were absorbed into the larger Meitei society of the valley. They have adopted and were integrated into the Meitei community save for their faith by accepting the nomenclature Pangal to identify themselves. Since then, they have become one of the ethnic communities of Manipur settled mainly in the valley co-existing with the Meiteis. Manipur, as we know, has been troubled again and again by ethnic tensions and clashes. The state has witnessed three major ethnic clashes in the recent decades; the Kuki-Naga clashes in the 1990s, the Meitei-Pangal clashes in 1993 and the Kuki-Paite clashes in 1997. On May 3, 1993, an uncalled for situation emerged between two ethnic communities of the Manipur Valley, between the Meiteis and the Pangals. Though the Meitei-Pangal clash lasted only for a few days, the damage done was irreparable. As reported by media, ninety seven Pangals were killed and several houses were burned down while there were two Meitei casualties. The bitterness continues to haunt the communities till today. This was one of the ugliest ethnic clashes that has shadowed Manipur. We do not want this history repeating itself. Considering the existence of bitterness between the two communities which no one can deny and the recent provocation by Mr. Yumnam Devjit directed towards the Pangals we would like to bring to your notice that he is deemed fit to be booked under: 1. Section 153 (A) of IPC (promoting communal enmity between religious groups), a non- bailable offence, 2. Section 295 (A) of IPC (Deliberate and malicious acts, intended to outrage reli-gious feelings of any class by insulting its religion or reli-gious beliefs), a non-bailable offence. 3. Section 268 of IPC (Public nuisance.—A person is guilty of a public nuisance who does any act or is guilty of an illegal omission which causes any common injury, danger or annoyance to the public or to the people in general who dwell or occupy property in the vicinity, or which must necessarily cause injury, obstruction, danger or annoyance to persons who may have occasion to use any public right. A common nuisance is not excused on the ground that it causes some convenience or advantage.) Further, we would like to bring to your attention the fact that even after stating on his facebook that he did not mean to harm the sentiments of any community subsequently, Mr. Yumnam Devjit has been constantly posting provocative posts that are anti-minority and anti- faith with such gross impunity and no signs of remorse. He has successfully instigated the uninformed youths of Manipur to verbally attack the Pangal people's faith and practices, thereby creating an atmosphere of dangerous enmity among the people in Manipur. It makes us suspect that he has a larger aim of destabilising the hard-won fragile peace of our land and we are afraid that he might not be acting alone. It is therefore imperative that Mr. Yumnam Devjit be handed over to the concerned authorities of Manipur for making anti-minority statements and provoking the public with communal intent, and let the law of the land prevail. As the newly appointed National Youth President of NPP, we would like you to set an example to the youth of Manipur by committing to hold Mr. Yumnam Devjit accountable for his actions according to the law of the land. As his sister and a family member, we would like you to take the moral responsibility and bring a closure to this unfortunate incident. Furthermore, it is distressing to learn that the said Yumnam family, in their defence, have alleged that the Pangal community is trying to sabotage the political career of the current Deputy CM. Such an accusation is an insulting tactic that aims to silence the legitimate protests of a minority community by trying to divert the issue and instead put the blame on the already assaulted community by Mr. Yumnam Devjit. Considering the events that have unfolded after the outrageous Facebook post by Mr. Yumnam Devjit, there is enough evidence to establish that he is a public nuisance. We would like you to use your official position as National Youth President of NPP to pressure the Government of Manipur to take immediate actions against Mr. Yumnam Devjit and help us restore the peace of the land and build harmony and unity and not allow the ugly history to repeat. We request the following from you: 1. An official letter of condemnation from the National Youth President, NPP 2. A formal official complaint to the relevant police department of Manipur highlighting the aforementioned IPCs from the Youth Wing of NPP. This will help the police book the culprit Mr. Yumnam Devjit under the correct IPCs. We look forward to a positive and action-oriented response from you.

Scholar, The Institute of Chartered Financial Analysts of India (ICFAI) University Dehradun – 248197, India Abstract: This paper deals with a community of Jogis which is fighting for its survival in all phases and in each place (country). They are found in major religions but undeveloped and considered to be of low social status in all subcontinents and are victim of society. This community did that type of work for their livelihood which no other community does but they do it for their survival and livelihood. In this paper I throw the light upon the present living conditions and origin of Jogis in Afghanistan and their connections with Jogis of Jain origin these both communities are very petite in number now and the Jogis of Jain origin are may be now fully extinct. Keywords: Jogis; Jainism; Gorakhnath; Afghanistan; Tazkira(citizenship proof); Punjab; Rawal. 1. Introduction The Jogis as a community cannot be said to have any history; there are many branches into which they are split ranging from all Indian subcontinent (including Afghanistan) and pursuing various religions and different way of life. In many reports of UN there are disambiguate that Jogis came from Central Asia (Zahir, 2012) or of Jat origin (Samuel Hall Consulting, 2011),they are of a bigger ethnic group of Jogis which are of indegenious origin, they have a great past and culture they are basically followers of Gorakhnath or of his disciple, so they still live and uses customary beliefs and follow native culture.

  • Economy of Transport in Mughal India
    ECONOMY OF TRANSPORT IN MUGHAL INDIA ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE AWARD OF THE DEGREE OF Bottor of ^t)tla£foplip ><HISTORY S^r-A^. fi NAZER AZIZ ANJUM % 'i A ^'^ -'mtm''- kWgj i. '* y '' «* Under the Supervision of PROFESSOR SHIREEN MOOSVI CENTRE OF ADVANCED STUDY DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY ALIGARH MUSLIM UNIVERSITY 4LIGARH (INDIA) 2010 ABSTRACT ]n Mughal India land revenue (which was about 50% of total produce) was mainly realised in cash and this resulted in giving rise to induced trade in agricultural produce. The urban population of Mughal India was over 15% of the total population - much higher than the urban population in 1881(i.e.9.3%). The Mughal ruling class were largely town-based. At the same time foreign trade was on its rise. Certain towns were emerging as a centre of specialised manufactures. These centres needed raw materials from far and near places. For example, Ahmadabad in Gujarat a well known centre for manufacturing brocade, received silk Irom Bengal. Saltpeter was brought from Patna and indigo from Biana and adjoining regions and textiles from Agra, Lucknow, Banaras, Gazipur to the Gujarat ports for export. This meant development of long distance trade as well. The brisk trade depended on the conditions and techniques of transport. A study of the economy of transport in Mughal India is therefore an important aspect of Mughal economy. Some work in the field has already been done on different aspects of system of transport in Mughal India. This thesis attempts a single study bringing all the various aspects of economy of transport together.

  • Ethnic Subnationalist Insurgencies in South Asia
    Ethnic Subnationalist Insurgencies in South Asia This book provides a micro-historical analysis of the emergence and con- temporary dynamics of recent ethnic subnationalist insurgencies in South Asia. Using comparative case studies, it discusses the causes of each insurgency, ana- lyses the trajectory and dynamics of each, including attempts at resolution, and highlights the wider theories of ethnonationalist insurgency. Bringing together an international group of contributors, the book covers insurgencies in India, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Nepal, and Bangladesh. It questions why ethnic subnationalist insurgencies occurred at particular points in time and not at others, and explores the comparative trajectories of these movements. The book goes on to discern reappearing patterns of conflict escalation/de-escalation through the method of comparative process- tracing. It argues that while identity is a necessary factor for insurgency, it is not a sufficient one. Instead, ethnic mobilization and insurgency only emerge when it is activated by tension emerg- ing from political competition between ethnic and central state elites. These political dynamics, when combined with favorable socio-economic conditions, make the ethnic masses primed to accept the often symbolically rich appeals from their leaders to mobilize against the central state. Providing an important study on ethnonationalist insurgencies in South Asia, the book will be of interest to those working in the fields of South Asian Politics, Security Studies and Ethnic Conflict. Jugdep S. Chima is an Assistant Professor of Political Science at Hiram College, Ohio, USA. He was previously a Lecturer of Political Science at the University of California, Berkeley, USA, and Associate Editor for South Asia at Asian Survey at the same institution.
