    SK: You are a poet. Could you please tell us about your Kosli poetry collection “Maraguda” and other Kosli language books? SKM: Maraguda is my first poem collection. The book got published in the year 2006. My another published book is a short story named as Raet sarta Tamar Sange and one more collection of short stories entitled Chere Guda is soon to be published. I can say on my literary works in kosli language that all are serious writings and can be compared with the literature of other languages. SK: How would you explain the broader significance of your literary work to a layperson from western Odisha? SKM: The basic purpose of a writer is to connect to his people, the readers. I always chose theme from the locality and most of my characters are also drawn from the region. Its like reflecting back through my memories and experiences with the rural folk. So when I started writing in Kosli it brought the common men closer to my theme and characters. The basic technique to connect to the laypersons is to give them a sense of involvement in the storyline which I do through selection of my theme and language. Apart from these the locales I use is also very much close to the heart of the common persons. They can easily locate themselves with the names, settings, mountains, lands, forests everything and that way they will never feel the sense of alienation or isolation. SK: Do you know about the research work done by Dr. Dologobind Bishi? Can you tell us briefly about his book “Kosli Bhasa Ra Sankhipta Parichaya”? SKM: Yes, I heard about that book.

    SOCIAL TRENDS1 Journal of the Department of Sociology of North Bengal University Vol. 5, 31 March 2018; ISSN: 2348-6538 UGC Approved Social Relationships Through Feminist Lens Jhuma Chakraborty Abstract: This paper endeavours to discuss two real life relationships from the perspective of two philosophers- Carol Gilligan, a renowned psychologist and philosopher and Simone de Beauvoir an existentialist philosopher. I will show how the readings of these relations become difficult from the perspectives of two philosophies. Both of them have critiqued the patriarchal top down structure like any other feminist and have explored and interpreted human relations from novel perspectives. Gilligan maintains that human beings are essentially related. Gilligan suggests that the entire relational network of a society can be sustained through care and empathetic listening of the voices of the ‘Other’. Beauvoir is an existentialist philosopher who maintains that human existence creates his/her being through freedom. One should go beyond the constraints of our contingent existence and give meaning to everyday relations through a never-ending venture of taking new projects. Keywords: Relational self, voice, empathetic listening, freedom, facticity. Introduction My paper focuses on two stories and their interpretation from feminist perspective. I am concerned with the ethical aspect of the two happenings. I want to discuss them from feminist perspective simply because patriarchal values will not appreciate the moral dilemma involved in these two stories. These are real life stories and are not a product of my imagination. The names of the characters are the only changes that I have made and the rest has been a description of what actually occurred.

    ALL-INDIA WRITERS' MEET 24-25 March 2018, Kohima, Nagaland In collaboration with Nagaland University, a two-day All-India Writers' Meet was organized on 24-25 March 2018 at Kohima, Nagaland. For the first time the Akademi organized a national-level programme at Nagaland. The very objective of this mega event was a challenge to bring reputed writers from various languages and from different parts of the country to Nagaland and usher in a new environment for the Naga writers. This was an opportunity to bring together different languages of the country with the languages of Nagaland. Dr K. Sreenivasarao, Secretary, Sahitya Akademi, while welcoming the delegates, encouraged the native writers to bring out the beautiful Naga cultural and literary traditions so as to make them known to others. Dr D. Kuolie, General Council Member, Sahitya Akademi, asserted that the idea of organizing this event was a constructive endeavour, an attempt to bring the writers of the country together. Professor Temsula Ao, eminent English writer, delivered the keynote address and observed that the Nagas have a rich oral tradition, but modern generation has lost many knowledgeable story-tellers and folk-singers, which she considered as the greatest casualties of progress and development of the society. She encouraged and appreciated the younger generation to create a new tradition where the soul of oral tradition resonates with new vigour. Prof. Temsula Ao delivering the keynote address Dr Madhav Kaushik speaking during the event Professor Ramesh C. Gupta, Pro Vice-Chancellor, Nagaland University, gave a brief historical account on the institutionalization of Sahitya Akademi and highlighted the aspiration of the pioneers.

    PREFACE Bargarh, previously a Sub-Division of undivided Sambalpur District was conferred the status of a district on 1st April 1993 to usher in better and faster service delivery, to bridge the gap between the Government and the governed and to ensure governance at the doorstep. The district owes its name to “Vagharkotta” as revealed by the Rastrakuta inscription of 12th Century AD. This province acquired its present name "Bargarh “during the reign of Balaram Dev, the King of Chauhan dynasty of Sambalpur. Historically, this district as contributed its mite in India’s freedom struggle. Ghess Zamindar Madho Singh, his four sons Hatte Singh, Kunjel Singh, Bairi Singh, Airi Singh and his son-in-law Narayana Singh have become legends of the district due to their extraordinary valour shown during the first war of independence. Similarly, village Panimora has received a special recognition in the history of freedom struggle due to the participation of 42 young men in the Satyagraha Movement of Gandhiji out of which 32 persons were incarcerated by the Britishers. An enthusiastic young girl Parbati Giri of village Samaleipadar showed her bravery inthe freedom struggle, who in the post- independence time is credited with the opening of “Kasturaba Gandhi Matruniketan”, the first ever orphanage of the district at Paikmal. Further, Debrigarh, a peak in the Barapahad hills of Ambabhona block, was used as a rebel stronghold by Lakhanpur Jamidar Balabhadra Deo and the noted freedom fighter Veer Surendra Sai stands as a mute spectator to the first revolt against the Britishin this area. In the post-independence period, Bargarh became the laboratory for different experimentations under the Cooperative Movement in Odisha.

    SOCIAL TRENDS37 Journal of the Department of Sociology of North Bengal University Vol. 5, 31 March 2018; ISSN: 2348-6538 UGC Approved Rethinking Kosli Identity: Language, Literature and Culture of Western Odisha Tila Kumar Abstract: Western Odisha’ once upon a time, formed a part of the ancient Koshal kingdom having its distinctive history, culture and unique salient features. The proponents of the separate Koshal state movement which is going on in the western part of Odisha have been mobilizing people and spearheading their movement along such a historic path so as to bring back their golden past and to preserve, protect and promote their rich cultural heritage. The people of western Odisha living in as many as eleven different districts not only ascertain their common ancestry but also share their common fate of being backward and underdeveloped due to ‘internal colonialism’ including state apathy and ‘coastal conspiracy’. Nevertheless, they are struggling and mobilizing forcefully to deconstruct their stigmatized identity and asserting today a unique ‘Kosli identity’, which is increasingly being recognized world over. And it is this ‘Kosli identity’ - which the leaders of the Koshal movement are using to garner people’s support and galvanize Kosli consciousness and ‘Kosli nationalism’ - the emblematic chord of the demand for a separate Kosal state. It is, therefore, that we discuss in the present article, some of the significant markers of what constitute Kosli identity in terms of a) Kosli language and literature and b) Kosli culture. Keywords: Western Odisha, Koshal, Kosli, Sambalpuri, Odia, Language, Dialect, Culture, Identity, Region, Nation, Nationality, State. Introduction ‘Western Odisha’ once upon a time, formed a part of the ancient Koshal kingdom having its distinctive history, culture and unique salient features.

  • “ I Will Give You a Talisman. Whenever You Are in Doubt, Or When the Self Becomes Too Much with You, Apply the Following Test
    CHAPTER-XI EVOLUTION OF LOCAL SELF GOVERNMENT AT THE DISTRICT LEVEL “ I will give you a talisman. Whenever you are in doubt, or when the self becomes too much with you, apply the following test. Recall the face of the poorest and the weakest man [woman] whom you may have seen, and ask yourself, if the step you contemplate is going to be of any use to him [her]. Will he [she] gain anything by it? Will it restore him [her] to a control over his [her] own life and destiny? In other words, will it lead to Swaraj [freedom] for the hungry and spiritually starving millions? Then you will find your doubts and yourself melt away." One of the last notes left behind by Gandhi in 1948, expressing his deepest social thought. The aforesaid principle of the Father of the Nation popularly known as Gandhi‟s Talisman finds translated in the 73rd Amendment of the Constitution of India which has immensely and logically empowered the common man at the grass root level and the succeeding stages in the hierarchy of development instilling the self-confidence and the modalities by which this vision can be materialized. Further, Gandhiji was of the opinion that the Self-Government means continuous effort to be independent of Government control, whether it is Foreign Government or whether it is National Swaraj Government, will be a sorry affair if people look up to it for the regulation of every detail of life.
