After decades of adopting peaceful means (with sporadic attacks on government property or staff), militant factions of the movement started targeting non-Bodo residents since the late 1980s. Over time, organizations and coalitions have emerged among non-Bodo communities – both recognized as indigenous or as marginalized immigrants such as Adivasis1 and Bengali-speaking Muslims2.

  • Understanding the Historical Conflicts Behind Today's Violence in Assam
    Understanding the Historical Conflicts Behind Today’s Violence in Assam Arpita Bhattacharyya August 29, 2012 Recent violence between the Bodo tribe and immigrant minorities in the northeastern Indian state of Assam has cost the lives of at least 96 people and caused more than 300,000 residents to flee their homes for refugee camps. The violence also led to mass panic among northeastern migrants across India, when text messages and videos circulated social media sites warning of attacks on northeastern migrants in southern Indian cities such as Bangalore and Pune in retaliation for the deaths of Muslim minorities in Assam. The violence and resulting panic revealed a fragile peace in Assam and demonstrated the speed with which historical tensions can bubble over into larger confrontations that could roil the whole country. A lot of this tension could worsen with the confluence of climate change, migration patterns, and community security in Assam and India—a confluence that the Center for American Progress is examining in a series of papers and events on cli- mate change, migration, and security. Before looking at those patterns in Assam, let’s first take a look back at Assam’s history to better understand today’s conflicts. Assam’s troubled past Assam is located in the northeastern part of India and shares a border with China, Myanmar, Nepal, Bhutan, and Bangladesh. This underdeveloped region, which is con- nected to India politically by a small land bridge, is also known as the “Seven Sisters” and includes the states Assam, Arunachal Pradesh, Nagaland, Manipur, Meghalaya, Tripura, and Mizoram.

  • A Discourse on the Religious Practices of the Rabha Community of West Bengal, India
    International Journal of Research in Social Sciences Vol. 8 Issue 7, July 2018, ISSN: 2249-2496 Impact Factor: 7.081 Journal Homepage: http://www.ijmra.us, Email: [email protected] Double-Blind Peer Reviewed Refereed Open Access International Journal - Included in the International Serial Directories Indexed & Listed at: Ulrich's Periodicals Directory ©, U.S.A., Open J-Gage as well as in Cabell‟s Directories of Publishing Opportunities, U.S.A A DISCOURSE ON THE RELIGIOUS PRACTICES OF THE RABHA COMMUNITY OF WEST BENGAL, INDIA Arpita Sarkar* Dr. Tapas Mistri** Abstract Religion becomes the important part of the human society since the dawn of the civilization. The Rabha is a scheduled tribe community belonging to the Indo-Mongoloid group of people. In West Bengal, they mainly settled in Jalpaiguri, Alipurduar and Cooch Behar district. The Rabha community has magnificent traditional beliefs and social practices. With selected structured questionnaire, field survey and interactions with the inhabitants of the community the present study partakes to understand the actual form and position of the religion along with the transition and trends of changes in religion of the Rabha community in the segregated parts of the west Bengal. It is observed that their traditional religious philosophy is mainly based on Animism. But the influence of Hinduism and Christianity has a far reaching impact on the religious tradition and structure of the Rabhas. Besides the Rabha society have also constantly changes in the process of Hinduism, Sanskritisation and Christianization (Singha, 2004). These changing trends have effects on their socio-cultural, economic, political life, social institution etc.

  • TERRITORIES of BELONGING Citizenship and Everyday Practices of the State in Bodoland
    TERRITORIES OF BELONGING Citizenship and everyday practices of the state in Bodoland Saba Sharma Department of Geography University of Cambridge This dissertation is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Hughes Hall April 2019 Declaration This thesis is the result of my own work and includes nothing which is the outcome of work done in collaboration. It is not substantially the same as any that I have submitted, or, is being concurrently submitted for a degree or diploma or other qualification at the University of Cambridge or any other University or similar institution, except as declared in the Preface and specified in the text. I further state that no substantial part of my dissertation has already been submitted, or, is being concurrently submitted for any such degree, diploma or other qualification at the University of Cambridge or any other University or similar institution except as declared in the Preface and specified in the text. It does not exceed the prescribed word limit of 80,000 words of the Degree Committee for the Faculty of Earth Sciences & Geography. 2 Thesis Summary My thesis looks at the construction of citizenship in the Bodoland Territorial Area Districts (BTAD, or Bodoland for short) in Western Assam, India. The BTAD is an autonomous sub- region within the state of Assam, which in turn is part of a cluster of states in Northeast India. I look primarily at the everyday practices of the state in an ethnically diverse region with a history of separatism, armed militant struggle, and violence between different ethnic groups. Two related strands of difference underlie the notion of citizenship here — the territorialised expression of ethnicity as manifested in the Indian context; and the idea of India’s Northeast as being a space of exception vis-à-vis the rest of the country.

  • PLP 2016-17 Kokrajhar District
    PLP 2016-17 Kokrajhar District EXECUTIVE SUMMARY I. The criticality of capital formation ‘in’ and ‘for’ agriculture need not be overemphasized. However, the recent declining trend in investment credit vis-à-vis crop loan has serious implications for sustaining capital formation. The theme selected for the PLP 2015-16 is “Accelerating the pace of capital formation in agriculture and allied sector”. The PLP maps the potential in priority sectors which could be exploited with institutional credit within a specified time frame. PLP are intended to provide a meaningful direction to the flow of credit to different sectors at the ground level taking into account all relevant factors. The various linkage and other support required to be provided by line departments to facilitate credit flow as planned are also listed in the PLP. II. Kokrajhar district is one of the four districts of the Bodoland Territorial Autonomous Districts (BTAD). The district comprises of three sub-divisions namely Kokrajhar, Gossaigaon and Parbatjora; eleven development blocks of which five are full blocks namely – Kokrajhar, Dotoma, Gossaigaon, Kochugaon and Debitola and six are partial blocks which were earlier parts of Dhubri district namely Hatidura, Rupsi, Mohamaya, Chapar Salkosha, Golakganj and Bilasipara. The BTAD authority is in charge of all the developmental activities including agriculture and rural development. The district Headquarter at Kokrajhar is also the Headquarters of the BTAD. The BTAD came into existence in the year 2005. The visible effects are noticed in the rapid urbanization of the BTAD headquarters – Kokrajhar.

A total of 52 wild edible plants were surveyed. Plants are the nature’s gift to mankind and consumed wholly or in parts either cooked or raw. These are delicious, refreshing and chief sources of vitamins, minerals and protein. Vegetables constitute a major part of daily food intakes and play an important role in well-balanced diet and maintain healthy living. Utilization of wild plant resources in day-to-day life of Bodo tribes has been an old-age practice and recently popularity of the same has declined. Hence, prime importance should be given to them in order to maintain and popularize this important source of non-conventional food supply. In this paper, the scientific names along with family, local names in Bodo, time of availability, edible parts used and method of use of the wild edible plants are presented. Key words: Wild edible vegetables, Kokrajhar district, Bodo tribe, Assam. ____________________________________________________________________________________________ INTRODUCTION Plants are the nature’s gift to mankind and have been used as an important source of food and medicine from the very beginning of time.
