Vulture Killing Stirs a Hornet's Nest Source: the Sangai Express Vulture killing stirs a hornet's nest Source: The Sangai Express Imphal, February 17 2012: Following the reported killing and presentation of a vulture by an individual to an independent candidate who contested the 10th Manipur Legislative Assembly election in Chingai AC, the State Government has come under fire from the Ministry of Environment and Forest (MoEF) . A reliable source informed that one Pamrei Pheirey, a resident of Phungcham, Ukhrul killed the vulture and presented it to independent candidate Khasim Vashum in the first week of February and the same matter was published in some sections of the media. Taking serious note of the killing of a vulture weighing 13 Kgs and measuring four feet in height, MoEF has quizzed the State Government asking if any action has been initiated for killing the wild bird which is included under Schedule IV . The Chief Secretary has already received a written intimation from the Ministry of Environment and Forest in this regard. Meanwhile, Forest Department has initiated due procedures to nab and penalise the individual who killed the vulture. Moreover, the department is mulling to file a complaint at Court. Commenting on the matter, environmentalist and Indian Bird Conservation Network, Manipur Chapter co-ordinator Dr RK Ranjan lamented that the vulture was killed at a time when strong measures have been already initiated all over the country to increase the number of vultures. At the advice of the Bombay Natural History Society, Diclofenac which was used to treat sick animals has been banned in view of its ill-effects on vultures. It has been more than 30 years since vultures have not been sighted in Manipur, he added. © Disclaimer: All efforts have been made to make the information as accurate as possible. .

This has led to shift in land use in which polyculture of variety of traditional crops are being slowly replaced by market driven monoculture system of cultivation to meet the demands to market on one side and maximization of production on the other side. As a result, the traditional crops in homegarden are being threatened in many areas. A study on conservation of tradition crops in homegarden in Tangkhul community in Ukhrul District of Manipur, India was carried out to assess the impact of such change in terms of crop species and their socioecological significance. A total of 73 plant species of economic, social and cultural values belonging to 27 families were recorded in homegardens. Result of this study shows that Tangkhul traditional community has vast indigenous knowledge on conservation of biodiversity in limited homegarden sites. Understanding traditional knowledge concerning HGs and how this form the knowledge for choice of species across the local community could help developing better strategies for sustainable management of traditional homegarden.

    ================================================================= Language in India www.languageinindia.comISSN 1930-2940 Vol. 16:8 August 2016 ================================================================= Syllable in Somdal, a Dialect of Tangkhul - A Preliminary Investigation Bijayanti Devi Haobam, Ph.D. Scholar ================================================================= Abstract Somdal, also known as Shongran (endonym) is one of the dialects of Tangkhul, a Tibeto-Burman language. This dialect of Tangkhul is found spoken in a village called Somdal, which is located in west of Ukhrul district of Manipur, India. As per 2011 census, the village has a total of 468 families of 2375 persons, of which 1209 are males while 1166 are females. Of the total population, 13.14 % are in the age group of 0-6 years. The average sex ratio of the village is 964 female per 1000 male. The literacy rate of the village is 92.39%. The present paper attempts to describe the syllable structure in Somdal, which is one of the dialects of Tangkhul language. Key words: Tibeto-Burman, Tangkhul, Naga, Somdal, syllable structure. 1. Introduction Somdal is one of the dialects of Tangkhul language, a Tibeto-Burman language. Like many other dialects of Northeast India, Somdal is a hitherto undescribed, undocumented and unexplored dialect of Tangkhul, which is found spoken in west of Ukhrul district, Manipur, India. Linguistically, according to the Grierson’s Linguistic Survey of India Volume III part II. (1904), Tangkhul belongs to the Kuki-Chin Naga subgroup of the Tibeto-Burman family. But Benedict and Shafer (1940-1) clubbed it under the Kukish section which includes Central-Kuki, Northern-Kuki, Old-Kuki, Southern-Kuki, Northern-Naga, and Lushai. Tangkhul is also known as Luhuppa in old literatures (see Grierson’s L.S.I Vol.

I. Meetei Director, Netaji Subhas Regional Institute of Cooperative Management, Kalyani,West Bengal, India Mr.VS. Khathing Asst. Prof., Pettigrew College, Ukhrul,Manipur ABSTRACT A joint venture project of International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD) and Government of India was launched in Ukhrul District of Manipur in February 1998. Among various components of the upland area development, microfinance programme was incorporated for rural poverty alleviation. The Ukhrul Community Resource Management Society (URMS) took up activity on formation of SHGs and 654 SHGs were set up in 103 villages. Required microcredit linkage was made with UBI, Ukhrul bank and NIM. To examine the impact of microfinance programme under IFAD sponsored project an empirical study has been carried out. 200 sample units (SHG- Members) have been selected through multistage stratified random sampling method. Poverty Eradication Index (PEI) is employed for measurement of extent of poverty eradication. Employment generation and income generation are taken as causal factors. Consumption pattern, knowledge & skill level, and health care are taken as impact factors. The value of PEI indicates that 47.61% of the SHG members have crossed poverty line during last two decades and 48.5%of them are enabled to construct their own houses.
