  • Report of the Population Estimates of India
    PR G. 37 (N) 500 CENSUS OF INDIA,1961 REPORT ON THE POPULATION ESTIMATES OF INDIA (1820-1830) EDITED By DURGAPRASAD BHATTACHARYA BIBHAVATI BHATTACHARYA of the Socio-Economic Research Institute, C-19, .College Street Market, Calcutta-I2 GOVERNMENT OF INDIA MINISTRY OF HOME AFFAIRS OFFICE OF THE REGISTRAR GENERALt INDIA Price: Rs. 6-50 Paise or 15 sb. 2 d. or 2 $ 34 Cents. FOREWORD This is the first of eight projected volumes on Population Estimatesfor various parts of India, made from the eighteenth century upto 1870, when the first Census of India was plannedfor execution in-1872. The enthusiasm expressed by Sri D_urgap/asad Bhattac!!arya of the Socio-Economic Research Institute of Calcutta, made the project possible. Certain suggestions made by me on the uniform presentation of data were readily accepted and the present volume represents the fruit of searches made for population estimates roughly for the decade 1820-1830. As this volume is one of the first ventures of its kind, I advised that there should be a minimum of editing, appraisal being limited to ten paints mentioned in para 1.5 in the editor's Preface. The Executive Council of the Socio-Economic Research Institute accepted these suggestions and the editors have presented the material, as far as possible, under the ten prescribed heads. This first volume is primarily designed to elicit suggestions and criticisms for improvement. The Census Commission, therefore, invites comments and criticisms so that the future volumes may be enriched. A bib/iog(aphy of Indian Census Publications is also ready for the press.

  • Nankar Uprising of Surma-Barak Valley from 1914
    প্রতঢধ্বতদ the Echo ISSN: 2278-5264 প্রতঢধ্বতদthe Echo A journal of Humanities & Social Science Chief Editor: Bishwajit Bhattacahrjee Published by: Dept. of Bengali Karimganj College, Karimganj, Assam, India. Website: www.thecho.in NANKAR UPRISING OF SURMA-BARAK VALLEY FROM 1914 – 64 Sumsun Noor Choudhury, PhD Scholar, Department of History, Assam University, Silchar, Email: sn_choudhury @yahoo.com ABSTRACT The Nankar uprising of Sylhet District now in Bangaladesh and present Karimganj District of India was a purely subaltern uprising, a series of which took place at different places of pre portioned Sylhet of erstwhile Surmavalley. At the time of British rule the permanent settlement was extended over the District, but in a peculiar form. One features of the Zamindary or Mirashdary system of Sylhet was that the Mirashdars or land holders possessed Nankar Proza (tenants). They cultivated the land and enjoyed the product of land without paying any revenue to the landlords. But they had to render free services in houses or agricultural fields of Mirashdars or Zamindars, whatever might be case. The term Nankar is derived from Persian words Nan and kar. The Nan means Bread and Kar means service. So the term Nankar means earning of bread in exchange of service. Actually the Nankar Proza or subject was such a wretched person who has no land of his own for cultivation and even constructing his home and hearth. Again, the person was a saleable commodity along with landed property. The revenue system which prevalent in medieval sylhet gave the shape of Nankar system which continued to British period with modification.
