  • 1 BIODATA Born to a Family of Theatre Practioners and Painters, Ashes Was Inherently Inspired to Think of the World in Terms Of
    BIODATA Born to a family of theatre practioners and painters, Ashes was inherently inspired to think of the world in terms of colour. As he grew up, he took to the brush quite naturally. This passion for colours , both on and off canvas, prompted him to pursue a theoretical formulation of colour-usage- colour response application in te xtual space for his doctoral thesis. His love for the North East of India, his homeland, has been the stimulus behind much of his academic and critical work ranging from situating Mamang Dai’s poetry in an authentic NE philosophic and aesthetic paradigm to analyzing the mnemonics of recall foregrounding refugee narratives and comprehending the plebian banter at work in subverting divinity as a remote construct in popular dance performances by the subalterns. As a professor in the department of English, Tripura University, Ashes has been trying to promote NE literature and culture persistently. In his capacity as a documentary film maker on aspects of NE and Tripura, he has created a rich audio-visual archive of lesser known aspects of his homeland. His academic endeavor has been to interrogate the notion of perceived marginality attributed to the North East and to counter such ‘mainstream motives’ by circumscribing an academic and cultural space with NE as the centre. Having widely travelled Ashes has represented the NE and Tripura across various lit. fests such as Goa Art and Literature Fest, Kaziranga Lit. Fest. Guwahati, Rivertalks Guwahati, World Book Fair N. Delhi, Converse Gangtok, to name a few. His remarkable literary works include Colourscapes: Theorising Colours, The Fragrant Joom-Translation of Modern Kokborok Poetry to English, The Fragrant Joom Revisited: A Translation of Modern Kokborok Poetry to English; The Mystic Mountain: An Anthology of Tripura Bangla Poetry in English, The Golden Rendezvous, Phoenix etal.

  • BA Semester VI- the Lower Section Society Movement (Peasant, Labour and Lower Caste)- (HISKB 604)
    BA Semester VI- The Lower Section Society Movement (Peasant, Labour and Lower Caste)- (HISKB 604) Dr. Mukesh Kumar (Department of History) KMC Language University Lucknow, U.P.-22013 UNIT-I Revolt in Bengal and Eastern India- The establishment and spread of the East India Company's rule in Bengal and its adjoining areas resulted in many civil rebellions and tribal uprisings beginning from the latter half of the eighteenth century. The British rule in Bengal after 1757 brought about a new economic order which was disastrous for the zamindars, peasants, and artisans alike. The famine of 1770 and the callousness on the part of the Company to redress the sufferings of the common man were seen as direct consequences of the alien rule. Sanyasi Revolt: Also known as the Sanyasi-Fakir rebellion, it was a confrontation between armed wandering monks and the Company's forces in Bengal and Bihar which began in the 1760s and continued until the middle of 1800s. These groups were severely affected by the high revenue demands, resumption of rent-free tenures, and commercial monopoly by the Company. The Company also placed restrictions on their access to holy places. This resulted in organized raids by the sanyasis on the Company's factories and state treasuries in retaliation. Only after prolonged military actions, this revolt was contained. Chuar Uprising: Famine, enhanced land revenue demands, and economic distress forced the Chuar tribesmen of Midnapur district to take up arms against the Company. The revolted lasted from 1766 to 1772 and then again surfaced between 1795 and 1816. 1 Ho Uprising: The Ho and Munda tribesmen of Chhota Nagpur and Singhbhum challenged the Company's forces in 1820-1822, again in 1831 and the area remained disturbed till 1837.

  • Sidhu and Kanhu
    © 2019 JETIR May 2019, Volume 6, Issue 5 www.jetir.org (ISSN-2349-5162) The Literary (Re)Presentation of the Tribal Heroes: Sidhu and Kanhu Teresa Tudu Assistant Professor Department of English Avvaiyar Government College for Women, Karaikal, Puducherry (Senior Research Fellow, BHU) Abstract The Santhal Revolt of 1855-56, also considered as the first peasant movement, was led by two young Santhals- Sidhu and Kanhu. This revolt which was believed to be guided by their God- ‘Thakur’ was aimed to get rid of the clutches of oppressive ‘Dikus’ and the Outsiders viz. Britishers. These two leaders, who have now acquired the status of gods and are worshipped by their tribesmen, have been extensively researched and written about. Even, they have been significantly mentioned in the stories, novels, poems, and songs. Although, they have been highly venerated by their tribesmen, some authors, and administrators of Colonial period differ in their opinion of these heroes. They have pointed out some drawbacks in their character and tried to showcase them merely as common men. This paper is aimed to critically analyze the personality of these two tribal leaders- Sidhu and Kanhu with the help of their portrayal in the available literature. This would lead us to draw a transparent and authentic image of these leaders. Keywords: Tribals, Revolt, Leaders, Hero-worship, Literature. I. INTRODUCTION Every year on 30th June Santhal folks celebrate Hool diwas commemorating their brave leaders of ‘Santhal Rebellion’ of 1855, Sidhu and Kanhu. Thousands of Santhals gather at Bhognadih, the birth place of Sidhu and Kanhu, and the Santhal rebellion.

  • Introduction Introduction
    ~ I I INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION Historical (short history) backgrounda Origin and present shape of Tripura State Tripura is among the most ancient States of India. The name of Tripura has a halo of mystery arcund it. Different perscns and scholars expressed {rarious opinions at various times regarding geonomy of Tripura. The original name of Tripura cannot be con- elusively traced back to any recorded source of history. Common belief is tl)at the name Tripura has originated from the goddess "Tripura Sundar!". But this is not correct, because the country had been known as Tripura even before the installation of the'· deity which took place at the time of Maharaja 11 Dhan'1arnaniJ<ya" in the first half of the sixteenth century. Others treat Tripilra as a • derivative from "Tripuram" nieaning end of three cities. There is also a popular belief that a mythical king called • Trip'Ur' named· his Kingdan Tripuras • after his own name. Analysing the name etymologically, some researchers have found it to be a co~ination from two tribal (Tripuri) words •twi' and •pra• which mean a 11 L·and adjoining water" so, it is very much difficult to ascertain the real reason behind the state • s name. The ruling time of Tripura Raja can be divided into three periodsa (1) Ancient period (2) Medifval period (3) Modern period. About 184 Kings ruled in Tripura upto 1947. Past history and old map of ·Tripura (Map Nos. 1, 2, 3) shows that present shape of the state has changed much from the ancient period. The present shape is derived from several ruling periods.

    UUddyyaammii BBaannggllaa MSME-Development Institute Kolkata 2nd Year, Vol: IX, August 2020 Udyami Bangla 2nd Year, Vol: IX, August 2020 This page is left blank intentionally 2 Udyami Bangla 2nd Year, Vol: IX, August 2020 From the Desk of Director In-Charge: From a complete standstill situation, economy started moving forward slowly in the unlock phases. Situation of the economy is very critical. According to some estimates, India’s economy may have contracted by as much as a fourth in the June quarter because of the Covid-19 pandemic and the lockdown that ensued. The government has taken several measures to revive the Indian economy. It is expected that the economy will return to high growth trajectory soon. While the countrywide lockdown brought most economic activities to a grinding halt in urban areas, rural India continued to be normal in view of exemptions from restrictions allowed to farmers to conduct farming operations. These exemptions helped to maintain continuity in the supply chain. Food Corporation of India and State Governments carried out massive procurement of rabi crops, mainly wheat. A vibrant agricultural sector is a guarantee for meeting the primary needs of the poor, vis-à-vis the rural demand may be maintained. Low crude oil price is also a boon for Indian economy which is largely dependent on oil imports. Covid-related crash in crude oil prices has proved to be a windfall for India. Import bill has reduced, making the current account deficit in the balance of payments more manageable. India is enjoying enormous benefits as a result of the current low prices of crude oil.
