  • 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.

    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.

Geography of multiplicity together with multiple ethnicities had significant role in form and formation of political power. 2.1.River System.
