(USA) Online ISSN: 2249-460x & Print ISSN: 0975-587X Gorkha Identity and Separate Statehood Movement By Dr. Anil Kumar Sarkar ABN Seal College, India Introduction- The present Darjeeling District was formed in 1866 where Kalimpong was transformed to the Darjeeling District. It is to be noted that during Bhutanese regime Kalimpong was within the Western Duars. After the Anglo-Bhutanese war 1866 Kalimpong was transferred to Darjeeling District and the western Duars was transferred to Jalpaiguri District of the undivided Bengal. Hence the Darjeeling District was formed with the ceded territories of Sikkim and Bhutan. From the very beginning both Darjeeling and Western Duars were treated excluded area. The population of the Darjeeling was Composed of Lepchas, Nepalis, and Bhotias etc. Mech- Rajvamsis are found in the Terai plain. Presently, Nepalese are the majority group of population. With the introduction of the plantation economy and developed agricultural system, the British administration encouraged Nepalese to Settle in Darjeeling District. It appears from the census Report of 1901 that 61% population of Darjeeling belonged to Nepali community.

  • Prout in a Nutshell Volume 3 Second Edition E-Book
    SHRII PRABHAT RANJAN SARKAR PROUT IN A NUTSHELL VOLUME THREE SHRII PRABHAT RANJAN SARKAR The pratiika (Ananda Marga emblem) represents in a visual way the essence of Ananda Marga ideology. The six-pointed star is composed of two equilateral triangles. The triangle pointing upward represents action, or the outward flow of energy through selfless service to humanity. The triangle pointing downward represents knowledge, the inward search for spiritual realization through meditation. The sun in the centre represents advancement, all-round progress. The goal of the aspirant’s march through life is represented by the swastika, a several-thousand-year-old symbol of spiritual victory.

  • Setting the Stage: a Materialist Semiotic Analysis Of
    SETTING THE STAGE: A MATERIALIST SEMIOTIC ANALYSIS OF CONTEMPORARY BENGALI GROUP THEATRE FROM KOLKATA, INDIA by ARNAB BANERJI (Under the Direction of Farley Richmond) ABSTRACT This dissertation studies select performance examples from various group theatre companies in Kolkata, India during a fieldwork conducted in Kolkata between August 2012 and July 2013 using the materialist semiotic performance analysis. Research into Bengali group theatre has overlooked the effect of the conditions of production and reception on meaning making in theatre. Extant research focuses on the history of the group theatre, individuals, groups, and the socially conscious and political nature of this theatre. The unique nature of this theatre culture (or any other theatre culture) can only be understood fully if the conditions within which such theatre is produced and received studied along with the performance event itself. This dissertation is an attempt to fill this lacuna in Bengali group theatre scholarship. Materialist semiotic performance analysis serves as the theoretical framework for this study. The materialist semiotic performance analysis is a theoretical tool that examines the theatre event by locating it within definite material conditions of production and reception like organization, funding, training, availability of spaces and the public discourse on theatre. The data presented in this dissertation was gathered in Kolkata using: auto-ethnography, participant observation, sample survey, and archival research. The conditions of production and reception are each examined and presented in isolation followed by case studies. The case studies bring the elements studied in the preceding section together to demonstrate how they function together in a performance event. The studies represent the vast array of theatre in Kolkata and allow the findings from the second part of the dissertation to be tested across a variety of conditions of production and reception.

  • Longing, Belonging and Other Stories: Tales of Bengali Identity and Collective Memory
    LONGING, BELONGING AND OTHER STORIES: TALES OF BENGALI IDENTITY AND COLLECTIVE MEMORY A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Arts in Communication, Culture and Technology By Proma Huq, B.S. Washington, DC August 14th, 2020 Copyright 2020 by Proma Huq All Rights Reserved ii LONGING, BELONGING AND OTHER STORIES: TALES OF BENGALI IDENTITY AND COLLECTIVE MEMORY Proma Huq, B.S. Thesis Advisor: Diana M. Owen, Ph.D. ABSTRACT Bangladesh is one of the few nations where living citizens can recall being subjects of three different countries, all within one lifetime. Additionally, it is the only nation founded in pursuit of linguistic recognition. This non-traditional study explores the manner in which collective memory is used in nation building, the formation of Bengali identity and the evolution of this identity in the face of political upheaval, war, and for some, eventual migration. By examining the identity politics and cultural implications of establishing collective memory, this project analyzes the pivotal role played by the concept of “imagined communities” (Anderson, 1983) – the idea that nations are socially constructed by constituents who perceive themselves as a group. Using a triangulation of existing literature, a content analysis of era-specific political rhetoric and collected oral histories, this study further examines the arbitrary lines drawn across the former Indian subcontinent, establishing such imagined communities and effectively rendering millions as prisoners of geography. The timeline for this longitudinal study includes: the end of the British Raj, the Partition of 1947, the Bengali Language Movement, and the Bangladeshi Liberation War of 1971, moving onwards into the twenty-first century.

    INDIA SUB-NATIONAL PROBLEM SET CODEBOOK, 1960-2004 Designed and Compiled for the Political Instability (State Failure) Task Force Monty G. Marshall, Shonali Sardesi, and Donna Ramsey Marshall Center for Systemic Peace August 30, 2005 NOTE: The India Sub-National Problem Set was compiled from the Keesings Record of World Events (Keesings Online) and covers the period 1960-2004. It is a representative data compilation based on specific event records and general news reporting; it must not be considered a comprehensive data collection. It was collected to identify and delineate the general parameters of distinct conflict events and processes, in terms of location, magnitude, and time frame, which have characterized politics in India since 1960. No comprehensive delineation of such conflicts is known to have been created prior to this effort. CNUM Conflict Number (4 digit numeric; nominal) Unique numerical conflict indentification variable; numbering begins with the number eleven (11). A conflict event must be 1) violent (resulting in at least one death or substantial property destruction) and 2) inherently political (performed by or for a distinct societal group with the intent of affecting existing political relations between that group and government authorities or another societal group). CTAG1 Conflict Tag Number–Level 1 (4 digit numeric; nominal) Situates micro-conflict events within a larger macro- or meta-conflict event or process by “tagging” the case to the larger event’s CNUM (each case has a unique CNUM value). “Nested” meta-conflict

  • Assam: Social, Economic and Political Dynamics
    SOCIAL, ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL DYNAMICS IN EXTREMIST AFFECTED AREAS CHAPTER-I: INTRODUCTION A. The Narrative Northeastern India: The volatile Northeast region of India, in recent times, is demonstrating signs of returning towards normalcy. A fundamental factor initiating this wind of change is the marginalisation of many armed insurgent movements of the region, as a result of internal as well as external pressures. The absence of violence is beginning to translate into a phase of consolidation of peace. In spite of the fact that certain pockets in Assam, Manipur and Nagaland continue to remain violence prone, an outbreak of peace in those areas too cannot be ruled out. Much would, however, depend on how the prevailing peace is handled, sustained and carried forward to unleash forces of development. The over five-decades long history of insurgency in the Northeast is as much a narrative of violence and mayhem as an unending story of remoteness, underdevelopment and alienation, each of these phenomena feeding the other. High levels of corruption in government departments, in charge of utilisation of substantial amount of developmental fund allocated by the centre, have resulted in slow economic and industrial development of the Northeast. Inadequate or non-implementation of developmental programmes continuing over decades perpetuates the sense of alienation among the common people, who perceive the Northeast to be far removed from the Indian mainland. The monitoring mechanism of the development programmes have either not been effective or have been bypassed by the respective states. Deployment of security forces in the region in response to the fragile security situation is an unavoidable evil.
