Download or read book Migration and Development Nexus in the Princely State Tripura 1900 1949 written by Dr. Nilanjan De and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2021-11-09 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The development of a state cannot be confined only to its economic arena but the socio-political, as well as cultural fields of a state, were also needed to be developed and modernized. Among the various guiding forces behind the development process of a state, migration sometimes plays a vital role in it. During the last fifty years of Manikya rule, a large number of immigrants, especially Bengali immigrants, entered into the princely, hilly state of Tripura from colonial India. These immigrations though outnumbered the aborigines of this hilly state, but it stimulated the developmental process of this Princely State which was initiated by the Manikya rulers in the last quarter of the 19th century. This book is a humble attempt to find out the relations between migration and the material development of Tripura. Furthermore, how much migration is responsible for changing the total infrastructural change of the Princely State Tripura and what were the factors that worked behind the immigrations during the last fifty years of Manikya rule are highlighted from a historical perspective.

Download or read book The Mughals and the North East written by Sajal Nag and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-07-17 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a perception that the region of north-east India maintained its ‘splendid isolation’ and remained outside the reach of the Mughals and did not have a pre-colonial past. The present book is an attempt to decenter and demolish the said perceptions and asserts that north-east India had a ‘medieval’ past through linkage with the dominant central power in India – the Mughals. The eastern frontier of this Mughal Empire was constituted by a number of states like Bengal, Koch Bihar, Assam, Manipur, Dimasa, Jaintia, Cachar, Tripura, Khasi confederation, Chittagong, Lushai and the Nagas. Of these, some areas like Bengal were an integral part of the Mughal Empire, while others like Koch Bihar and Assam were in and out of the empire. Tripura, Manipur, Jaintia and Cachar were frequently overrun by the Mughals whenever the State was short of revenue and withdrew soon without incorporating them in the state. Despite not being a formal part of the Mughal Empire, the society, economy, polity and culture of the north-east India, however, had been majorly impacted by the Mughal presence. The brief, but effective advent of the Mughals had supplanted certain political and revenue institutions in various states. It generated trade and commerce, which linked it to the rest of India. A number of wondering Sufi saints, Islamic missionaries, imprisoned Mughal soldiers and officers were settled in various states, which resulted in a substantial Muslim population growth in the region. Besides the population, there are numerous Islamic and syncretic institutions, cultures, and shrines which dot the entire region.

Download or read book People of India Tripura written by K. S. Singh and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Anthropological Survey of India launched the People of India project on 2nd October 1985 to generate an anthropological profile of all communities of India and to highlight the impact on them of change and the development process and the links that brought them together. As part of this all-India project the ethnographic survey of Tripura was taken up for the first time. Seventy-eight communities were identified and studied. Tripura combines the ethnographic characteristics of eastern and north-eastern India. Historically it derives its identity from the Tipera or Tripuri, an ancient tribe which was part of Kirat or the Indo-Mongoloid stream. Tripura received waves of immigrants from many parts of the country. After partition, the influx of refugees from across the international border upset the demographic balance and further reduced tribals to a minority, causing enormous pressure to build up on tribal resources and sparking off tribal resistance in various forms. Remedial action followed, including the extension of the Sixth Schedule and the deepening of the concept of autonomy to include the developmental function. This book presents an ethnographic profile of all communities which made Tripura their home, of their history and migration ecology and food habits, social organization, religion, economy and occupation, and impact of change and development. Tripura is linguistically heterogeneous with as many as 23 languages being spoken. Some of the ethnographic traits of Tripura communities which stand out in relation to those of the rest of the country are: a higher degree of non-vegetarianism, a large number of middle ranking communities, clan endogamy, a higher level of participation of women in economy, gradual extension of plough cultivation and survival of shifting cultivation, the manifestations of tribal religion with a thin veneer of sanskritisation, vigorous forms of folk arts and folk traditions. K. S. Singh is former Director General, Anthropological Survey of India. Prof. J. Gan Chaoudhry is Assistant Professor in Political Science, B. B. Evening College. S. Sailo, Additional Director, Directorate of Welfare for Scheduled Caste, Government of Tripura. M. S. Dutta, now retired, was Anthropologist (Cultural), Anthropological Survey of India.

Book excerpt: This book is a historical study of the development of agrarian-class relations among the tribal population in Tripura. Tracing the evolution of Tripura and its agrarian relations from monarchy in the nineteenth century to democracy in the twentieth century, the book discusses the nature of the erstwhile princely state of Tripura, analyses the emergence of differentiation within tribes, and documents the emergence of the tribal movement in the state. It specifically focuses on the tribal movement led by the Ganamukti Parishad, beginning with the historic revolt of 1948-51 against state repression on the tribal people, followed by the mass movements in the 1950s and 1960s, which were founded on a recognition of class relations and the slogan of unity across the tribal and non-tribal (Bengali) peasantry. The first of its kind, the book will be indispensable for students and researchers of tribal studies, agrarian studies, exclusion studies, tribe-class relationships, minority studies, sociology, development studies, history, political science, northeast India studies, and South Asian studies. It will also be useful for activists and policymakers working in the area.

This book was released on 2021-11-09 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: People from India’s Northeast have crafted distinct as well as diverse cultural cryptograms, discernments and personality which is frequently at loggerheads with the power politics from outside the region. Thus, attention is often on the societies of the Northeast India as they putter with transforming institutions and more intensive resource consumption in the wake of modernization and development activities. This volume is an examination into questions of who exercises control, who constructs knowledge/ideas about the region and how far such discourses are people-centric. It inspects how India’s Northeast have been understood in colonial and post-colonial contexts through the contributions from research scholars and faculties from different academic spaces. These contributions are both from within the region as well as from neighbourhood. Thus, presenting a cross-dimensional gaze on social, political, economic as well as issues related to space-relation.

Download or read book North East India Land People and Economy written by K.R. Dikshit and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-10-21 with total page 828 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: North-East India, comprising the seven contiguous states around Assam, the principal state of the region, is a relatively unknown, yet very fascinating region. The forest clad peripheral mountains, home to indigenous peoples like the Nagas, Mizos and the Khasis, the densely populated Brahmaputra valley with its lush green tea gardens and the golden rice fields, the moderately populated hill regions and plateaus, and the sparsely inhabited Himalayas, form a unique mosaic of natural and cultural landscapes and human interactions, with unparalleled diversity. The book provides a glimpse into the region’s past and gives a comprehensive picture of its physical environment, people, resources and its economy. The physical environment takes into account not only the structural base of the region, its physical characteristics and natural vegetation but also offers an impression of the region’s biodiversity and the measures undertaken to preserve it. The people of the region, especially the indigenous population, inhabiting contrasting environments and speaking a variety of regional and local dialects, have received special attention, bringing into focus the role of migration that has influenced the traditional societies, for centuries. The book acquaints the readers with spatial distribution, life style and culture of the indigenous people, outlining the unique features of each tribe. The economy of the region, depending originally on primitive farming and cottage industries, like silkworm rearing, but now greatly transformed with the emergence of modern industries, power resources and expanding trade, is reviewed based on authentic data and actual field observations. The epilogue, the last chapter in the book, summarizes the authors’ perception of the region and its future.
