MOREH-NAMPHALONG BORDER TRADE Marchang Reimeingam∗ Abstract Level of border trade (BT) taking place at Moreh-Namphalong markets along Indo-Myanmar border is low but significant. BT is immensely linked with the third economies like China which actually supply goods. Moreh BT accounts to two percent of the total India-Myanmar trade. It is affected by the bandh and strikes, insurgency, unstable currency exchange rate and smuggling that led to an economic lost for traders and economy at large.

Intekhab Hossain Lecturer, Department of Sociology, Aliah University, Kolkata, India; e-mail: [email protected] KEYWORDS ABSTRACT Muslims; deprivation; West Bengal is a multi-ethnic, multi-lingual and multi-religious state of India where various seclusion; backwardness; ethnic groups and creeds have been living side by side since long past. Muslims are the principal development minority of this multi-religious state and constitute about 27% of the state’s total population. Yet little is known about the socio-economic and political dynamics of this community due to lack of fieldwork. This paper focuses on the contemporary dynamics of the Muslim life in West Bengal from an anthropological perspective. A especial effort has also been made in order to find out the factors contributing to form a bottleneck in development and social change. Introduction The economic growth of a country cannot be attained without the development of its entire population at both micro and macro level. Poverty is considered to be a curse to any economy and Muslims are generally the poorest segment of Indian society in spite of the fact that they are both able and willing to be educated and work in any field. They are considered a backward community in India both educationally and economically. Moreover, unless an assessment is made in order to find out the root causes of their backwardness and poverty, they will remain so and thus continue to contribute negatively to the economic progress of the country (Rahaman and Bhuimali 2011:9).

  • Religious Conditions in the 14 Century A. D. Deccan

D. Deccan PSVSV Prasada Rao, Ph. D. Abstract: History is important as its study can influence a better society for the future generations. The lessons learnt from the past should be utilized so as to form a harmonious civilization. The significance of the religious conditions in the 14th century Deccan is that it lead to a peaceful existence among the various sects of religions without any problematic issues related to religion. It is essential for us to learn from our history so as to build a better tomorrow for the future generation. This article briefly studies some select sects of Muslim and Hindu religions that were progressive and prevalent in the 14th century Deccan. The objective of the article is to bring to light that though there were various sects of Hindu and Muslim religions, the basic tenets of these sects seem to be based on similar principles. The article examines the Vaishnava, Virasaiva, Madhwa, Mahanubhava and Nathpanth sects in Hinduism and Sufism in Islam religion to show that all these sects had similar ideals to work towards the betterment of society. Both the religions clearly gave importance to humanity irrespective of class and creed. These sects were against idolatry and encouraged self-discipline and selflessness. This article is a modest attempt in trying to understand the social system in the period of study.
