The Cen:;us Operalions in the Central Provinces and Berar began with Change; afecting the Cen,us the appointment of thf' Provincial Superintendent from the Organi~~tivn- 1st ...\pril 1920. There werc Ill) changes during the ckcade, which affected the external boundaries of the Provinrf', and internallv the redistribution of territory between the districts of Bhandara and Halaghat . caused the only important n{odification of population and areas. Except for the inter-change of one village between Kanker State and Raipur the Feudatory States remained as they were. 2. From the Census Administration Report of 19 [I it appears that eve ry Records of thp- previous precaution was adopted to enable the records of that Census. Census to be preserved intact. This, however, did oot stay the hand of the eliminator in the Secretariat, and of the compilations of important orcins carefully prepared in I91 I all but O1W copy had been eliminated. This had been required by the Census Commissiullt'f for India, but he returned it for my use. I was ahle, however, to obtain partly' from District offices a complete set of forms, circulars and rult's in English, Hindi and Marathi. The majority of the office flIes prt'sern~d in 1911 escaped destruction. A list shU'wing the compilations no\\' prt'st:n-cd is appended to this repol t (Appendix B). In each District and Stall' also the authority concerned has been asked to preserve carefully all important Census records such as the General Yillage Register, the Circle lists, Census maps, important correspondence, orders issued by them and five compilations of forms, circulars, rules, etc., in English and the Vernacular used in the Disi rid or State. 3· Tht-' Census Operations began in these Provinces 'with the appointment The prli'liminary organ;' of the Provincial :-1upcrintendent on the I st April 1920; sation. and as the cost at the next Census is likely to be very considerablv greater if it be found necessary to pay the Enumerators, it will not be out of place to suggest a means whereby the expenditure can be kept down. The first matter to \vhich attention has to be directed is the supply of the large amount of papfT necessary for usc in the enumeration, and after this the drafting and issue of tht' various chapters of the Ct"nSllS Code. In provinces like this 1n which there is a well defined village, which makes the preparation of ~omplete village lists unnecessarY, the first actual operation in districts is that ot house­ numbering, \vhich should be undertaken in the month of October or earlier if the rains hav~ ceased earlier. Prior to this, there is a certain amount of preliminary organisation in districts, and a report in the form of the General Village Register has to be sent to the Census Superintendent by the end of July, in which the Census arrangenlf'nts arc set out an:.1 the Dumber of houses reported. 1 would 2 DRAF rING, TRANSLATION AND PRINTING OF ORDERS, ETC. [Chap. II. suggest that this report be omitted altogether and that no preliminary estimate of the number of houses be sent in. The Superintendent would b..-:: unable to check thp number of forms actually required, and it would therefore be necessary to provide a iomewhat larger reserve, but given a reasonable reserve the estimate based all the population of the last Census, and the number of reported births and deaths would be sufficiently near the mark. As regards the district organi­ sation and the division of the country into circles, ch':lTges and blocks the arrangements of the last Census are 110\\' so closely followed, and the officers on the spot arc so much better informed of the local conditions that the Superintendent is unlikely to he able to suggest any useful alterations If, therefore, the Deputy Commissioner is in a position to issue final orders on the Cen5ius organisation at the end of Septemher it is then possible to proceed at once with the !10use-numbering towards the end of Octoher. It follows that if the Deputy Commissioner has nothing to refer back to the Superintendent he will have sufficient time if he receives his first instructions at the beginning of August. The preparation of the Census Code by the Provincial Superin­ tendent can he done very quickly, as he has only to adopt the Imperia1 COlle with a few alterations to suit local conditions. He should have no difficulty in iS5uing the earlifT chapters within two months of their receipt. If, therefore, the Superintendent has a supply of paper delivered in Nagpur by June 1st, he can gtart his work on that date; and there is no reason that the simple calculation for the amount of paper should not be made by the Census Commissioner for India, who, when he arranges the paper contract, can at the same time state the quantity to be sent to each province. It must be borne in mind that the Provincial Superintendent has little opportunity of introducing any changes in the actual met.hod of enumeration which is standardised for the whole of India. He will have sufficient time to study the subject, and form his idea as to the matter to be presented in the report during the preliminary organisation.

Department of Anthropology & Tribal Studies, Sidho-Kanho-Birsha University, Purulia, West Bengal, India. Corresponding author: [email protected] keywords abstract Census data, India, Literacy, The present paper is based entirely on secondary sources of information, mainly drawn Tribal, West Bengal from the 2001 and 2011 Censuses of India and West Bengal. In this paper, an attempt has been made to analyse the present literacy trends of the ethnic communities of West Bengal, and comparing the data over a decade (2001 – 2011). The difference between male and female has also been focused. The fact remains that a large number of tribal women might have missed educational opportunities at different stages and in order to empower them varieties of skill training programmes have to be designed and organised. Implementation of systematic processes like Information Education Communication (IEC) should be done to educate communities. Introduction The term, tribe, comes from the word ‘tribus’ which in Latin is used to identify a group of persons forming a community and claiming descent from a common ancestor (Fried, 1975). Literacy is an important indicator of development among ethnic communities. According to Census, literacy is defined to be the ability to read and write a simple sentence in one’s own language understanding it; it is in this context that education has to be viewed from a modern perspective.

A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy McMaster University © Copyright by Carla E. Brown, June 2017 Ph.D. Thesis – C. Brown; McMaster University – Chemistry and Chemical Biology McMaster University DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (2017) Hamilton, Ontario (Chemical Biology) TITLE: Design and Synthesis of Novel Small-molecule Antimicrobials AUTHOR: Carla E. Brown, BArtSc. (McMaster University), M.Sc. (University of Toronto) SUPERVISOR: Professor James McNulty NUMBER OF PAGES: xiii, 281 ii Ph.D. Thesis – C. Brown; McMaster University – Chemistry and Chemical Biology There is a need to discover new antimicrobial drugs to combat drug-resistant infections. We are trying to find new molecules that can prevent the growth of parasites and viruses by developing and using novel chemical reactions, as well as by isolating new products from plants and fungi. This text describes a new way to make quinolines, a type of molecule found in many drugs. A molecule prepared by this method inhibited the parasite T. gondii at low concentrations. We have also identified quinazolinones, molecules that can be rapidly assembled by combining three components, which inhibit parasites and viruses. The thesis also includes a faster way to make derivatives of an antiviral molecule from daffodils, which can help determine which parts of the molecule are important for antiviral activity. We have also identified new molecules from the fungus Xylaria polymorpha and an antiviral compound from the Ficus benjamina tree.

  • Tribes in India
    SIXTH SEMESTER (HONS) PAPER: DSE3T/ UNIT-I TRIBES IN INDIA Brief History: The tribal population is found in almost all parts of the world. India is one of the two largest concentrations of tribal population. The tribal community constitutes an important part of Indian social structure. Tribes are earliest communities as they are the first settlers. The tribal are said to be the original inhabitants of this land. These groups are still in primitive stage and often referred to as Primitive or Adavasis, Aborigines or Girijans and so on. The tribal population in India, according to 2011 census is 8.6%. At present India has the second largest population in the world next to Africa. Our most of the tribal population is concentrated in the eastern (West Bengal, Orissa, Bihar, Jharkhand) and central (Madhya Pradesh, Chhattishgarh, Andhra Pradesh) tribal belt. Among the major tribes, the population of Bhil is about six million followed by the Gond (about 5 million), the Santal (about 4 million), and the Oraon (about 2 million). Tribals are called variously in different countries. For instance, in the United States of America, they are known as ‘Red Indians’, in Australia as ‘Aborigines’, in the European countries as ‘Gypsys’ , in the African and Asian countries as ‘Tribals’. The term ‘tribes’ in the Indian context today are referred as ‘Scheduled Tribes’. These communities are regarded as the earliest among the present inhabitants of India. And it is considered that they have survived here with their unchanging ways of life for centuries. Many of the tribals are still in a primitive stage and far from the impact of modern civilization.

This work could not have taken its current shape in the absence of their contributions. I thank them all. First and foremost, I owe my greatest debt of gratitude to my advisor Gail Minault for her guidance and assistance. I am grateful for her useful comments, sharp criticisms, and invaluable suggestions on the earlier drafts, and for her constant encouragement, support, and generous time throughout my doctoral work. I must add that it was her path breaking scholarship in South Asian Islam that inspired me to come to Austin, Texas all the way from New Delhi, India. While it brought me an opportunity to work under her supervision, I benefited myself further at the prospect of working with some of the finest scholars and excellent human beings I have ever known.

GANDHI CENTENARY YEAR 1969 To the memory of the Man Who spoke the following Words This work is respectfully Dedicated • • • • "1 CANNOT CONCEIVE ANY HIGHER WAY OF WORSHIPPING GOD THAN BY WORKING FOR THE POOR AND THE DEPRESSED •••• UNTOUCHABILITY IS REPUGNANT TO REASON AND TO THE INSTINCT OF MERCY, PITY AND lOVE. THERE CAN BE NO ROOM IN INDIA OF MY DREAMS FOR THE CURSE OF UNTOUCHABILITy .•.. WE MUST GLADLY GIVE UP CUSTOM THAT IS AGA.INST JUSTICE, REASON AND RELIGION OF HEART. A CHRONIC AND LONG STANDING SOCIAL EVIL CANNOT BE SWEPT AWAY AT A STROKE: IT ALWAYS REQUIRES PATIENCE AND PERSEVERANCE." INTRODUCTION THE CENSUS Organisation of Rajasthan has brought out this Ethnographic Atlas of Rajasthan with reference to the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes. This work has been taken up by Dr. U.B. Mathur, Deputy Census Superin­ tendent of Rajasthan. For the first time, basic information relating to this backward section of our society has been presented in a very comprehensive form. Short and compact notes on each individual caste and tribe, appropriately illustrated by maps and pictograms, supported by statistical information have added to the utility of the publication. One can have, at a glance. almost a complete picture of the present conditions of these backward communities. The publication has a special significance in the Gandhi Centenary Year. The publication will certainly be of immense value for all official and Don­ official agencies engaged in the important task of uplift of the depressed classes.
