Its international arm, Fondazione CINI International, is based in [[Verona]], Italy.

The CINI was founded by a [[Pediatrics|Pediatrician]], [[Samir Chaudhuri]] in 1974 and is involved in many community development-focused projects in India, addressing the underlying social causes of poverty, and collaborates with the Indian government and other local and international [[Non-governmental organization|NGOs]]. CINI focuses primarily on health, nutrition, education of children and mothers. To date, its activities have reached around five million people, living in the states of [[West Bengal]] and [[Jharkhand]].

The organisation is actively involved in projects in other countries within the continents of Asia and Africa, in cooperation with both [[aid organisation]]s and UN agencies.

CINI shares its approaches with other organisations working in related fields, especially smaller, locally based, community NGOs.

Villiers-Stuart was considered highly persuasive, and on one occasion persuaded the Prince of Wales to invite her to tea at [[Sandringham House]].<ref name=":2" />

== Career ==
In India, Villiers-Stuart researched and collected material about Mughals garden, including taking a solo trip to [[Shimla|Simla]], [[Himachal Pradesh]], where she was the guest of the Maharaja [[Bhupinder Singh of Patiala]].<ref name=":3">{{Cite news |last=Richardson |first=Tim |date=2022-07-08 |title=How one adventurous Edwardian lady discovered paradise in a Mughal garden |url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/gardening/gardening-events/how-one-adventurous-edwardian-lady-discovered-paradise-mughal/ |access-date=2025-04-09 |work=The Telegraph |language=en-GB |issn=0307-1235}}</ref> Her research was published in the 1913 book, ''Gardens of the Great Mughals,''<ref name=":4">{{Cite book |last=Conan |first=Michel |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=I8GpYG1QVAQC&dq=Constance+Villiers-Stuart&pg=PA124 |title=Perspectives on Garden Histories |date=1999 |publisher=Dumbarton Oaks |isbn=978-0-88402-265-7 |pages=8, 132 |language=en}}</ref> which was the first full-length book on Mughal Gardens and launched their historical study.<ref name="WescoatWolschke-Bulmahn1996" /><ref name="Villiers-Stuart1913">{{cite book |author=Prior |first=Mary Ann |title=Constance Villiers Stuart: In Pursuit of Paradise |publisher=Unicorn Publishing Group |year=2022 |isbn=9781914414435 |edition=1st |location=London, UK |language=English}}</ref> She was the first to discuss the [[Persian language|Persian]] term ''chahārbāgh'' and to interpret it as a "large garden divided by four waterways".<ref>{{Cite book |last=Mahmoudian |first=Safa |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=14EoEQAAQBAJ&dq=Constance+Villiers-Stuart&pg=PT11 |title=Palace Gardens in Lower Mesopotamia: 8th to 11th Centuries |date=2024-10-31 |publisher=Edinburgh University Press |isbn=978-1-3995-2428-5 |language=en}}</ref> Her book also included sketches and watercolour paintings,<ref name=":2" /> including of the Taj Mahal and Delhi Palace,<ref name=":5">{{Cite book |last=Herbert |first=Eugenia W. |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=Evt1Zg9-nrMC&dq=Constance+Villiers-Stuart&pg=PT401 |title=Flora's Empire: British Gardens in India |date=2013-01-15 |publisher=Penguin Books Limited |isbn=978-81-8475-871-9 |language=en}}</ref> and she had photographed an ornate marble swing in the gardens of the [[Deeg Palace]].<ref name=":3" />
[[File:TajPlanMughalGardens.jpg|thumb|Plan of the [[Taj Mahal]] gardens by Villiers-Stuart]]
In her book, chapter XII, titled "Some garden contrasts and a dream," urges respect for Indian design traditions. The "dream" in the chapter title concerned her hopes to influence the design of [[New Delhi]].<ref name=":5" /> Villiers-Stuart's called for New Delhi to follow an Indian town plan and mobilised the [[Royal Society of Arts]] in London to support the idea.<ref name=":5" /> She conversed on the matter with architect [[Edwin Lutyens]], who also read her book. Working with [[Gertrude Jekyll]] had also given Lutyens a sympathy for garden design.<ref name=":5" />

Both Lutyens and the [[Viceroy of India]], [[Charles Hardinge, 1st Baron Hardinge of Penshurst|Lord Charles Hardinge]], were impressed with her ideas, which was important for her as they were designing both the new capital city and the Viceroy's palace.<ref name="WescoatWolschke-Bulmahn1996">{{cite book|author1=James L.

During [[World War I]], her husband was posted to [[Gallipoli]] and she accompanied him to the [[Gallipoli campaign|front line]], staying at the Hotel Splendid in [[Salonica]]. Her husband had written earlier to his mother, saying that: "she is nearly sure to come here and I don't suppose anything I could have said would have stopped her.”<ref name="Villiers-Stuart1913" /> While in Salonica, Villiers-Stuart wrote about the native flowers of Macedonia for the British ''[[Country Life (magazine)|Country Life]]'' magazine.<ref name="Villiers-Stuart1913" /><ref name=":3" />

Villiers-Stuart later published her second book ''Spanish Gardens: Their History, Types and Features,'' after completing a solo research trip in the mid-1920s to visit the [[Moorish architecture|Moorish]] gardens of Spain''.''<ref name=":1" /><ref name=":2" /> This book made comparisons between the Spanish garden designs and the Mughal Gardens of her previous work.<ref name=":4" />

== Suffrage activism ==
Villiers-Stuart was the secretary of the [[National Union of Societies for Equal Citizenship]] (NUSEC). She campaigned in 1919 for ''some'' Indian women to be granted the right to vote in elections, such as landowners and university graduates.<ref>{{Cite book |last1=Fletcher |first1=Ian Christopher |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=7U5hln57PtkC&dq=Constance+Villiers-Stuart&pg=PA205 |title=Women's Suffrage in the British Empire: Citizenship, Nation and Race |last2=Levine |first2=Philippa |last3=Mayhall |first3=Laura E.

The '''Jan Shatabdi Express''' ({{lit|People's Century Express}}) is a more affordable and economical version of the [[Shatabdi Express]]''.'' The word 'Jan' refers to common people. Being an economical version of the Shatabdi Express, it provides the passenger with Air Conditioned Chair Car, Second Class Seating and Unreserved classes. Though its priority is less than that of the trains like [[Rajdhani Express]], [[Shatabdi Express]] and [[Duronto Express]], it enjoys a greater priority than the Mail, Express and the Superfast Express trains of Indian Railways. The maximum permissible speed of this train is 130 km/h.

==Traction==
All Jan Shatabdi Express trains are hauled by either [[Indian locomotive class WDM-3D|WDM-3D]]– and [[Indian locomotive class WDP-4|WDP-4]]–class diesel locomotives, or [[Indian locomotive class WAP-4|WAP-4]]– and [[Indian locomotive class WAP-7|WAP-7]]–class electric locomotives.

'''''The New Yorker''''' is an American magazine featuring journalism, commentary, criticism, essays, fiction, satire, cartoons, and poetry. It was founded on February 21, 1925, by [[Harold Ross]] and his wife [[Jane Grant]], a reporter for ''[[The New York Times]]''. Together with entrepreneur Raoul H. Fleischmann, they established the F-R Publishing Company and set up the magazine's first office in [[Manhattan]]. Ross remained the editor until his death in 1951, shaping the magazine's editorial tone and standards, such as its robust [[fact-checking]] operation, for which ''The New Yorker'' is widely recognized.<ref>{{cite book|author-last=Cain|author-first=Sarah|title=Writing for The New Yorker: Critical Essays on an American Periodical|editor-last=Green|editor-first=Fiona|publisher=Oxford University Press|chapter=2:‘We Stand Corrected’: New Yorker Fact-checking and the Business of American Accuracy |date=2015}}</ref>

Although its reviews and events listings often focused on the [[Culture of New York City|cultural life of New York City]], ''The New Yorker'' gained a reputation for publishing serious essays, [[long-form journalism]], well-regarded fiction, and humor for a national and international audience, including work by writers such as [[Truman Capote]], [[Vladimir Nabokov]], and [[Alice Munro]]. In the late 20th and early 21st centuries, the magazine adapted to the [[Information Age|digital era]], maintaining its traditional print operations while expanding its online presence, including making its archives available on the Internet and introducing a digital version of the magazine. [[David Remnick]] has been the editor of ''The New Yorker'' since 1998.

''The New Yorker'' is published 47 times annually, with five of these issues covering two-week spans. It is well known for its illustrated and often topical covers, such as ''[[View of the World from 9th Avenue]]'',<ref>{{Cite web |last=Temple |first=Emily |date=February 21, 2018 |title=20 Iconic New Yorker Covers from the Last 93 Years |url=https://lithub.com/20-iconic-new-yorker-covers/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180223110900/https://lithub.com/20-iconic-new-yorker-covers/ |archive-date=February 23, 2018 |access-date=February 23, 2018 |publisher=Literary Hub}}</ref> its commentaries on popular culture and eccentric [[American culture]], its attention to modern fiction by the inclusion of [[Short story|short stories]] and literary [[review]]s, its rigorous fact checking and [[copy editing]],<ref>{{Cite news |last=Norris |first=Mary |author-link=Mary Norris (copy editor) |date=May 10, 2015 |title=How I proofread my way to Philip Roth's heart |language=en |work=[[The Guardian]] |url=https://www.theguardian.com/books/2015/may/10/between-you-and-me-confessions-of-a-comma-queen-mary-norris-extract |url-status=live |access-date=July 12, 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180712221432/https://www.theguardian.com/books/2015/may/10/between-you-and-me-confessions-of-a-comma-queen-mary-norris-extract |archive-date=July 12, 2018 |quote=It has been more than 20 years since I became a page OK'er—a position that exists only at the ''New Yorker'', where you query-proofread pieces and manage them, with the editor, the author, a fact-checker, and a second proofreader, until they go to press.}}</ref><ref name="TED Talk">{{Cite web |title=Mary Norris: The nit-picking glory of the New Yorker's comma queen |date=April 15, 2016 |url=https://www.ted.com/talks/mary_norris_the_nit_picking_glory_of_the_new_yorker_s_comma_queen |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180728025944/https://www.ted.com/talks/mary_norris_the_nit_picking_glory_of_the_new_yorker_s_comma_queen |archive-date=July 28, 2018 |access-date=July 12, 2018 |publisher=[[TED (conference)|TED]] |quote=Copy editing for The New Yorker is like playing shortstop for a major league baseball team—every little movement gets picked over by the critics ...

== Overview and history ==
[[File:TheNewYorker30May1925.jpg|thumb|right|Cover of the issue from May 30, 1925, illustrated by [[Ilonka Karasz]], a regular cover artist for ''The New Yorker'']]
''The New Yorker'' was founded by [[Harold Ross]] (1892–1951) and his wife [[Jane Grant]] (1892–1972), a ''[[The New York Times|New York Times]]'' reporter, and debuted on February 21, 1925. Ross wanted to create a sophisticated humor magazine that would be different from perceivably "corny" humor publications, such as ''[[Judge (magazine)|Judge]]'', where he had worked, or the old ''[[Life (humor magazine)|Life]]''. Ross partnered with entrepreneur Raoul H. Fleischmann (who founded the General Baking Company)<ref>[https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/timeline "Timeline"], ''The New Yorker''. {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131107183533/http://www.newyorker.com/magazine/timeline |date=November 7, 2013 }}.</ref> to establish the F-R Publishing Company. The magazine's first offices were at 25 West 45th Street in [[Manhattan]]. Ross edited the magazine until his death in 1951. During the early, occasionally precarious years of its existence, the magazine prided itself on its cosmopolitan sophistication. Ross declared in a 1925 prospectus for the magazine: "It has announced that it is not edited for the old lady in [[Dubuque, Iowa|Dubuque]]".<ref>{{Cite news |last=Johnson |first=Dirk |date=August 5, 1999 |title=Dubuque Journal; The Slight That Years, All 75, Can't Erase |work=[[The New York Times]] |url=https://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9500E2D81730F936A3575BC0A96F958260&sec=&spon=&pagewanted=1 |access-date=February 13, 2017 |archive-date=June 4, 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240604013841/https://www.nytimes.com/1999/08/05/us/dubuque-journal-the-slight-that-years-all-75-can-t-erase.html |url-status=live }}</ref>

Although the magazine never lost its touches of humor, it soon established itself as a preeminent forum for serious fiction, essays and journalism. Shortly after the end of [[World War II]], [[John Hersey]]'s essay ''[[Hiroshima (book)|Hiroshima]]'' filled an entire issue. The magazine has published short stories by many of the most respected writers of the 20th and 21st centuries, including [[Ann Beattie]], [[Sally Benson]], [[Maeve Brennan]], [[Truman Capote]], [[Rachel Carson]], [[John Cheever]], [[Roald Dahl]], [[Mavis Gallant]], [[Geoffrey T. Hellman|Geoffrey Hellman]], [[Ernest Hemingway]], [[Stephen King]], [[Ruth McKenney]], [[John McNulty (journalist)|John McNulty]], [[Joseph Mitchell (writer)|Joseph Mitchell]], [[Lorrie Moore]], [[Alice Munro]], [[Haruki Murakami]], [[Vladimir Nabokov]], [[John O'Hara]], [[Dorothy Parker]], [[S.J. Perelman]], [[Philip Roth]], [[George Saunders]], [[J. D. Salinger]], [[Irwin Shaw]], [[James Thurber]], [[John Updike]], [[Eudora Welty]], and [[E. B. White]]. Publication of [[Shirley Jackson]]'s "[[The Lottery]]" drew more mail than any other story in the magazine's history.<ref name="Lottery letters">{{Cite magazine |last=Franklin |first=Ruth |date=June 25, 2013 |title='The Lottery' Letters |url=https://www.newyorker.com/books/page-turner/the-lottery-letters |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180612140626/https://www.newyorker.com/books/page-turner/the-lottery-letters |archive-date=June 12, 2018 |access-date=June 11, 2018 |magazine=The New Yorker |publisher=[[Condé Nast]]}}</ref>

The nonfiction feature articles (usually the bulk of an issue) cover an eclectic array of topics.

The magazine is known for its editorial traditions. Under the rubric ''Profiles'', it has published articles about prominent people such as Ernest Hemingway, [[Henry Luce|Henry R. Luce]], [[Marlon Brando]], Hollywood restaurateur [[Michael Romanoff]], magician [[Ricky Jay]], and mathematicians [[Chudnovsky brothers|David and Gregory Chudnovsky]]. Other enduring features have been "Goings on About Town", a listing of cultural and entertainment events in New York, and "The Talk of the Town", a [[feuilleton]] or miscellany of brief pieces—frequently humorous, whimsical, or eccentric vignettes of life in New York—in a breezily light style, although latterly the section often begins with a serious commentary. For many years, newspaper snippets containing amusing errors, unintended meanings or badly mixed metaphors ("Block That Metaphor") have been used as filler items, accompanied by a witty retort. There is no masthead listing the editors and staff. Despite some changes, the magazine has kept much of its traditional appearance over the decades in typography, layout, covers, and artwork. The magazine was acquired by [[Advance Publications]], the media company owned by [[Samuel Irving Newhouse Jr.|Samuel Irving Newhouse Jr]], in 1985,<ref>{{Cite news |last=Easley |first=Greg |date=October 1995 |title=The New Yorker: When a Magazine Wins Awards But Loses Money, the Only Success is the Editor's Private One |work=[[Spy (magazine)|Spy]] |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=fM4yPDNHtHQC&q=1984+newhouse+the+new+yorker&pg=PA58 |access-date=October 20, 2020 |archive-date=June 4, 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240604013925/https://books.google.com/books?id=fM4yPDNHtHQC&q=1984+newhouse+the+new+yorker&pg=PA58#v=snippet&q=1984%20newhouse%20the%20new%20yorker&f=false |url-status=live }}</ref> for $200 million when it was earning less than $6 million a year.<ref name="mahon19890910">{{Cite news |last=Mahon |first=Gigi |date=September 10, 1989 |title=S.I.

Ross was succeeded as editor by [[William Shawn]] (1951–1987), followed by [[Robert Gottlieb]] (1987–1992) and [[Tina Brown]] (1992–1998). The current editor of ''The New Yorker'' is [[David Remnick]], who succeeded Brown in July 1998.<ref>{{Cite news |last=Harper |first=Jennifer |date=July 13, 1998 |title=New Yorker Magazine Names New Editor |work=The Washington Times |agency=Knight Ridder/Tribune Business News |url=https://www.highbeam.com/doc/1G1-20900047.html |url-status=dead |access-date=December 22, 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171010075840/https://www.highbeam.com/doc/1G1-20900047.html |archive-date=October 10, 2017|via=[[HighBeam Research]]}}</ref>

Among the important nonfiction authors who began writing for the magazine during Shawn's editorship were [[Dwight Macdonald]], [[Kenneth Tynan]], and [[Hannah Arendt]], whose ''Eichmann in Jerusalem'' reportage appeared in the magazine,<ref>{{Cite magazine |last=Arendt |first=Hannah |date=1963-02-08 |title=Eichmann in Jerusalem |language=en-US |magazine=The New Yorker |url=https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/1963/02/16/eichmann-in-jerusalem-i |access-date=2023-11-27 |issn=0028-792X |archive-date=September 21, 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190921143945/https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/1963/02/16/eichmann-in-jerusalem-i |url-status=live }}</ref> before it was published as [[Eichmann in Jerusalem|a book]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=Eichmann in Jerusalem by Hannah Arendt – Reading Guide: 9780143039884 |url=https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/320983/eichmann-in-jerusalem-by-hannah-arendt/9780143039884 |access-date=2023-12-22 |website=PenguinRandomhouse.com |language=en-US |archive-date=December 22, 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231222033817/https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/320983/eichmann-in-jerusalem-by-hannah-arendt/9780143039884/ |url-status=live }}</ref>

Brown's tenure attracted more controversy than Gottlieb's or even Shawn's, due to her high profile (Shawn, by contrast, had been an extremely shy, introverted figure), and to the changes she made to a magazine with a similar look for the previous half-century. She introduced color to the editorial pages (several years before ''The New York Times'') and included photography, with less type on each page and a generally more modern layout. More substantively, she increased the coverage of current events and topics such as celebrities and business tycoons, and placed short pieces throughout "Goings on About Town", including a racy column about nightlife in Manhattan.

Since the late 1990s, ''The New Yorker'' has used the Internet to publish current and archived material, and maintains a website with some content from the current issue (plus exclusive web-only content).

=== Influence and significance ===
''The New Yorker'' influenced a number of similar magazines, including ''The Brooklynite'' (1926 to 1930), ''[[The Chicagoan]]'' (1926 to 1935), and Paris's ''The Boulevardier'' (1927 to 1932).<ref>{{Cite book |last=Lee |first=Judith Yaross |url=https://archive.org/details/definingnewyorke00leej |title=Defining New Yorker Humor |date=2000 |publisher=Univ.

[[Kurt Vonnegut]] said that ''The New Yorker'' has been an effective instrument for getting a large audience to appreciate modern literature.<ref>{{Cite book |last=Vonnegut |first=Kurt |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=bLQeOR_m2YMC&pg=PA164 |title=Conversations with Kurt Vonnegut |publisher=University Press of Mississippi |year=1988 |isbn=9780878053575 |editor-last=Allen |editor-first=William Rodney |location=Jackson |pages=163–164}}</ref> [[Tom Wolfe]] wrote of the magazine: "The ''New Yorker'' style was one of leisurely meandering understatement, droll when in the humorous mode, tautological and [[litotes|litotical]] when in the serious mode, constantly amplified, qualified, adumbrated upon, nuanced and renuanced, until the magazine's pale-gray pages became High Baroque triumphs of the relative clause and [[Apposition|appository]] modifier".<ref>Wolfe, Tom, "Foreword: Murderous Gutter Journalism", in ''Hooking Up''. New York: Farrar Straus Giroux, 2000.</ref>

Joseph Rosenblum, reviewing [[Ben Yagoda]]'s ''About Town'', a history of the magazine from 1925 to 1985, wrote, "''The New Yorker'' did create its own universe. As one longtime reader wrote to Yagoda, this was a place 'where [[Peter DeVries]] ...{{sic}} was forever lifting a glass of [[Piesporter]], where [[Niccolò Tucci]] (in a plum velvet dinner jacket) flirted in Italian with [[Muriel Spark]], where Nabokov sipped tawny [[Port wine|port]] from a prismatic goblet (while a [[Vanessa atalanta|Red Admirable]] perched on his pinky), and where John Updike tripped over the master's Swiss shoes, excusing himself charmingly{{' "}}.<ref>{{Cite book |last=Rosenblum |first=Joseph |title=Magill's Literary Annual 2001: Essay-Reviews of 200 Outstanding Books Published in the United States During 2000 |publisher=Salem Press |year=2001 |isbn=0-89356-275-0 |editor=Wilson, John D. |location=Pasadena, CA |page=5 |chapter=About Town |editor-last2=[[Steven G.

== Cartoons ==
''The New Yorker'' has featured cartoons (usually [[gag cartoon]]s) since it began publication in 1925. For years, its cartoon editor was [[Lee Lorenz]], who first began cartooning in 1956 and became a ''New Yorker'' contract contributor in 1958.<ref>{{Cite magazine |title=Lee Lorenz |url=https://www.newyorker.com/contributors/lee-lorenz |url-status=live |magazine=The New Yorker |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171203023855/https://www.newyorker.com/contributors/lee-lorenz |archive-date=December 3, 2017 |access-date=July 31, 2015}}</ref> After serving as the magazine's art editor from 1973 to 1993 (when he was replaced by [[Françoise Mouly]]), he continued in the position of cartoon editor until 1998. His book ''The Art of the New Yorker: 1925–1995'' (Knopf, 1995) was the first comprehensive survey of all aspects of the magazine's graphics. In 1998, [[Robert Mankoff]] took over as cartoon editor and edited at least 14 collections of ''New Yorker'' cartoons. Mankoff also usually contributed a short article to each book, describing some aspect of the cartooning process or the methods used to select cartoons for the magazine. He left the magazine in 2017.<ref>Cavna, Michael. [https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/comic-riffs/wp/2017/05/01/bob-mankoff-named-humor-editor-for-esquire-after-exiting-new-yorker-job/ "Bob Mankoff named humor editor for Esquire one day after exiting the New Yorker"], {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180129080600/https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/comic-riffs/wp/2017/05/01/bob-mankoff-named-humor-editor-for-esquire-after-exiting-new-yorker-job/ |date=January 29, 2018 }} ''Washington Post'' (May 1, 2017).</ref>

''The New Yorker''{{'}}s stable of cartoonists has included many important talents in American humor, including [[Charles Addams]], [[Peter Arno]], [[Charles Barsotti]], [[George Booth (cartoonist)|George Booth]], [[Roz Chast]], [[Tom Cheney (cartoonist)|Tom Cheney]], [[Sam Cobean]], [[Leo Cullum]], [[Richard Decker]], [[Pia Guerra]], [[J. B. Handelsman]], [[Helen E. Hokinson]], [[Pete Holmes]], [[Ed Koren]], [[Reginald Marsh (artist)|Reginald Marsh]], [[Mary Petty]], [[George Price (New Yorker cartoonist)|George Price]], [[Charles Saxon]], [[Burr Shafer]], [[Otto Soglow]], [[William Steig]], [[Saul Steinberg]], [[James Stevenson (illustrator)|James Stevenson]], [[James Thurber]], and [[Gahan Wilson]].

Many early ''New Yorker'' cartoonists did not caption their cartoons. In his book ''The Years with Ross'', Thurber describes the newspaper's weekly art meeting, where cartoons submitted over the previous week were brought up from the mail room to be looked over by Ross, the editorial department, and a number of staff writers. Cartoons were often rejected or sent back to artists with requested amendments, while others were accepted and captions were written for them. Some artists hired their own writers; Hokinson hired James Reid Parker in 1931. [[Brendan Gill]] relates in his book ''Here at The New Yorker'' that at one point in the early 1940s, the quality of the artwork submitted to the magazine seemed to improve. It later was found out that the office boy (a teenaged [[Truman Capote]]) had been acting as a volunteer art editor, dropping pieces he did not like down the far end of his desk.<ref>Gill, Brendan. ''Here at The New Yorker''. New York: Berkley Medallion Press, 1976. p. 341.</ref>

Several of the magazine's cartoons have reached a higher plateau of fame. One 1928 cartoon drawn by [[Carl Rose (cartoonist)|Carl Rose]] and captioned by [[E. B. White]] shows a mother telling her daughter, "It's broccoli, dear". The daughter responds, "I say it's spinach and I say the hell with it". The phrase "[[I say it's spinach]]" entered the vernacular, and three years later, the Broadway musical ''Face the Music'' included [[Irving Berlin]]'s song "[[I Say It's Spinach (And the Hell with It)]]".<ref>Gill (1976), p. 220.</ref> The [[catchphrase]] "[[wikt:back to the drawing board|back to the drawing board]]" originated with the 1941 Peter Arno cartoon showing an engineer walking away from a crashed plane, saying, "Well, back to the old drawing board".<ref>{{Cite web |title=Michael Maslin – Finding Arno |url=http://michaelmaslin.com/index.php?page=finding-arno |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080917221618/http://michaelmaslin.com/index.php?page=finding-arno |archive-date=September 17, 2008 |access-date=May 30, 2008}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=CBR.com – The World's Top Destination For Comic, Movie & TV news |url=http://goodcomics.comicbookresources.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/arno11.jpg |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110131235442/http://goodcomics.comicbookresources.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/arno11.jpg |archive-date=January 31, 2011 |access-date=September 7, 2010}}</ref>

The most reprinted is [[Peter Steiner (cartoonist)|Peter Steiner]]'s 1993 drawing of two dogs at a computer, with one saying, "[[On the Internet, nobody knows you're a dog]]". According to Mankoff, Steiner and the magazine have split more than $100,000 in fees paid for the licensing and reprinting of this single cartoon, with more than half going to Steiner.<ref>{{Cite news |last=Fleishman |first=Glenn |date=December 14, 2000 |title=Cartoon Captures Spirit of the Internet |work=[[The New York Times]] |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2000/12/14/technology/14DOGG.html?pagewanted=1&ei=5070&en=f0518aafeccf36fd&ex=1183089600 |access-date=October 1, 2007 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090416205920/http://www.nytimes.com/2000/12/14/technology/14DOGG.html?pagewanted=1&ei=5070&en=f0518aafeccf36fd&ex=1183089600 |archive-date=April 16, 2009}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Peter Steiner's 'On the Internet, nobody knows you're a dog.' |url=http://www.unc.edu/depts/jomc/academics/dri/idog.html |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20051029045942/http://www.unc.edu/depts/jomc/academics/dri/idog.html |archive-date=October 29, 2005 |access-date=July 24, 2007}}</ref>

Over seven decades, many hardcover compilations of ''New Yorker'' cartoons have been published, and in 2004, Mankoff edited ''The Complete Cartoons of The New Yorker'', a 656-page collection with 2,004 of the magazine's best cartoons published during 80 years, plus a double CD set with all 68,647 cartoons ever published in the magazine.<ref>{{Cite book |editor-last=Mankoff |editor-first=Robert |editor-link=Robert Mankoff |year=2004 |title=The Complete Cartoons of ''The New Yorker'' |url=https://archive.org/details/completecartoons0000unse |url-access=registration |edition=First hardcover |location=New York |publisher=Black Dog & Leventhal Publisher |isbn=9781579123222 |oclc=1547920310 |access-date=3 November 2025}}</ref> This features a search function allowing readers to search for cartoons by cartoonist's name or year of publication. The newer group of cartoonists in recent years includes [[Pat Byrnes]], [[J. C. Duffy]], [[Liana Finck]], [[Emily Flake]], [[Robert Leighton (cartoonist)|Robert Leighton]], [[Michael Maslin]], [[Julia Suits]], and [[P. C. Vey]].

In April 2005, the magazine began using the last page of each issue for "The New Yorker Cartoon [[Caption Contest]]". Captionless cartoons by ''The New Yorker''{{'}}s regular cartoonists are printed each week. Captions are submitted by readers, and three are chosen as finalists. Readers then vote on the winner. Anyone age 13 or older can enter or vote. At first, the winner received a print of the cartoon (with the winning caption) signed by the artist who drew the cartoon, but this practice ceased.<ref>{{Cite magazine |title=Caption Contest Rules |url=https://www.newyorker.com/about/caption-contest-rules |url-status=live |magazine=The New Yorker |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180712223454/https://www.newyorker.com/about/caption-contest-rules |archive-date=July 12, 2018 |access-date=July 12, 2018}}</ref> In 2017, after [[Bob Mankoff]] left the magazine, [[Emma Allen]] became its youngest and first female cartoon editor.<ref>{{Cite news |last=Cavna |first=Michael |date=2021-10-06 |title=Emma Allen is redefining what a New Yorker cartoon can be |language=en-US |newspaper=Washington Post |url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/arts-entertainment/2021/10/05/emma-allen-new-yorker-cartoon-editor/ |access-date=2023-11-04 |issn=0190-8286 |archive-date=March 8, 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230308062535/https://www.washingtonpost.com/arts-entertainment/2021/10/05/emma-allen-new-yorker-cartoon-editor/ |url-status=live }}</ref>

== Crosswords and puzzles ==
In April 2018, ''The New Yorker'' launched a crossword puzzle series with a weekday crossword published every Monday. Subsequently, it launched a second, weekend crossword that appears on Fridays and relaunched cryptic puzzles that were run in the magazine in the late 1990s. In June 2021, it began publishing new cryptics weekly.<ref>{{cite magazine |title=Announcing an All-New Weekly Cryptic Crossword from The New Yorker |magazine=The New Yorker |url=https://www.newyorker.com/puzzles-and-games-dept/cryptic-crossword/announcing-an-all-new-weekly-cryptic-crossword-from-the-new-yorker |access-date=September 9, 2022 |archive-date=September 28, 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220928173002/https://www.newyorker.com/puzzles-and-games-dept/cryptic-crossword/announcing-an-all-new-weekly-cryptic-crossword-from-the-new-yorker |url-status=live }}</ref> In July 2021, ''The New Yorker'' introduced Name Drop, a trivia game, which is posted online weekdays.<ref>{{cite magazine |title=Introducing Name Drop: a Daily Trivia Game from The New Yorker |magazine=The New Yorker |url=https://www.newyorker.com/puzzles-and-games-dept/introducing-name-drop-a-daily-trivia-game-from-the-new-yorker |access-date=September 9, 2022 |archive-date=September 9, 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220909204500/https://www.newyorker.com/puzzles-and-games-dept/introducing-name-drop-a-daily-trivia-game-from-the-new-yorker |url-status=live }}</ref> In March 2022, ''The New Yorker'' moved to publishing online crosswords every weekday, with decreasing difficulty Monday through Thursday and themed puzzles on Fridays.<ref>{{cite magazine |title=You Can Now Play The New Yorker Crossword Every Weekday |magazine=The New Yorker |url=https://www.newyorker.com/puzzles-and-games-dept/crossword/you-can-now-play-the-new-yorker-crossword-every-weekday |access-date=September 9, 2022 |archive-date=September 9, 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220909210008/https://www.newyorker.com/puzzles-and-games-dept/crossword/you-can-now-play-the-new-yorker-crossword-every-weekday |url-status=live }}</ref> The puzzles are written by a rotating stable of 13 constructors.

It was based on an 1834 caricature of the [[Alfred Guillaume Gabriel, Count d'Orsay|Count d'Orsay]] that appeared as an illustration in the 11th edition of the ''[[Encyclopædia Britannica]]''.<ref>{{Cite web |date=March 29, 2010 |title=Eustace Tilley |url=http://hoc.uspoc.us/2010/eustace-tilley/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110817123844/http://hoc.uspoc.us/2010/eustace-tilley/ |archive-date=August 17, 2011 |access-date=March 29, 2010}}</ref> The character on the original cover, now known as Eustace Tilley, was created for ''The New Yorker'' by [[Corey Ford]]. The hero of a series titled "The Making of a Magazine", which began on the inside front cover of the August 8 issue that first summer, Tilley was a younger man than the figure on the original cover. His [[top hat]] was of a newer style, without the curved brim. He wore a [[morning coat]] and striped [[formal trousers]]. Ford borrowed Eustace Tilley's last name from an aunt—he had always found it vaguely humorous{{Citation needed|date=September 2025}}. He selected "Eustace" for [[Phonaesthetics|euphony]].<ref>{{Cite book |last=Kunkel |first=Thomas |url=https://archive.org/details/geniusindisguise00kunk |title=Genius in Disguise |date=June 1996 |publisher=Carroll & Graf Publishers |isbn=9780786703234 |page=512 |url-access=registration}}</ref>

The character has become a kind of mascot for ''The New Yorker'', frequently appearing in its pages and on promotional materials. Traditionally, Irvin's original Tilley cover illustration is used every year on the issue closest to the anniversary date of February 21, though on several occasions a newly drawn variation has been substituted.<ref>{{Cite magazine |last=Mouly |first=Françoise |date=February 16, 2015 |title=Cover Story: Nine for Ninety |url=https://www.newyorker.com/culture/culture-desk/cover-story-nine-ninety |url-status=live |magazine=The New Yorker |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150804074621/http://www.newyorker.com/culture/culture-desk/cover-story-nine-ninety |archive-date=August 4, 2015 |access-date=July 31, 2015}}</ref>

=== "View of the World" cover ===
{{main|View of the World from 9th Avenue}}

Saul Steinberg created 85 covers and 642 internal drawings and illustrations for the magazine. His most famous work is probably the cover for issue March 29, 1976,<ref>{{Cite web |title=New Yorker March 29, 1976 by Saul Steinberg |url=https://condenaststore.com/featured/new-yorker-march-29-1976-saul-steinberg.html |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220304212518/https://condenaststore.com/featured/new-yorker-march-29-1976-saul-steinberg.html |archive-date=March 4, 2022 |access-date=April 5, 2022 |website=[[Condé Nast]]}}</ref> featuring an illustration, most often called "View of the World from [[Ninth Avenue (Manhattan)|9th Avenue]]", sometimes called "A Parochial New Yorker's View of the World" or "A New Yorker's View of the World", which depicts a map of the world as seen by self-absorbed New Yorkers.

The illustration is split in two, with the bottom half showing Manhattan's 9th Avenue, 10th Avenue, and the [[Hudson River]], and the top half depicting the rest of the world. The rest of the US is the size of the three New York City blocks and is drawn as a square, with a thin brown strip along the Hudson representing "[[New Jersey|Jersey]]", the names of five cities (Los Angeles; Washington, D.C.; [[Las Vegas, Nevada|Las Vegas]]; [[Kansas City, Missouri|Kansas City]]; and Chicago) and three states ([[Texas]], [[Utah]], and [[Nebraska]]) scattered among a few rocks for the U.S. beyond New Jersey. The Pacific Ocean, perhaps half again as wide as the Hudson, separates the US from three flattened land masses labeled China, Japan and Russia.

The illustration—depicting New Yorkers' self-image of their place in the world, or perhaps outsiders' view of New Yorkers' self-image—inspired many similar works, including the poster for the 1984 film ''[[Moscow on the Hudson]]''; that movie poster led to a lawsuit, ''[[Steinberg v. Columbia Pictures Industries, Inc.]]'', 663 F. Supp. 706 ([[United States District Court for the Southern District of New York|S.D.N.Y.]] 1987), which held that [[Columbia Pictures]] violated the [[copyright]] that Steinberg held.

The cover was later satirized by [[Barry Blitt]] for the cover of ''The New Yorker'' on October 6, 2008, featuring [[Sarah Palin]] looking out of her window seeing only Alaska, with Russia in the far background.<ref>{{Cite web |date=October 6, 2008 |title=New Yorker Cover – 10/6/2008 at The New Yorker Store |url=http://www.condenaststore.com/-sp/The-New-Yorker-Cover-October-6-2008-Prints_i8482999_.htm |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120118060355/http://www.condenaststore.com/-sp/The-New-Yorker-Cover-October-6-2008-Prints_i8482999_.htm |archive-date=January 18, 2012 |access-date=October 15, 2010 |publisher=Newyorkerstore.com}}</ref> The cover of the March 21, 2009, issue of ''[[The Economist]]'', titled "How China sees the World", is an homage to Steinberg, depicting the viewpoint from Beijing's [[Chang'an Avenue]] instead of Manhattan.<ref>{{Cite news |date=March 21, 2009 |title=Issue Cover for March 21, 2009 |newspaper=[[The Economist]] |url=http://www.economist.com/node/21521345 |url-status=dead |access-date=August 26, 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120225030405/http://www.economist.com/node/21521345 |archive-date=February 25, 2012}}</ref>

=== 9/11 ===
Hired by Tina Brown in 1992, [[Art Spiegelman]] worked for ''The New Yorker'' for ten years, but resigned a few months after the [[September 11 terrorist attacks]]. Spiegelman and Françoise Mouly received wide acclaim for their cover for the issue from September 24, 2001; it was voted as being among the top ten magazine covers of the past 40 years by the American Society of Magazine Editors:

{{blockquote|''New Yorker'' Covers Editor Françoise Mouly repositioned Art Spiegelman's silhouettes, inspired by [[Ad Reinhardt]]'s black-on-black paintings, so that the North Tower's antenna breaks the "W" of the magazine's logo. Spiegelman wanted to see the emptiness, and find the awful/awe-filled image of all that disappeared on 9/11. The silhouetted Twin Towers were printed in a fifth, black ink, on a field of black made up of the standard four color printing inks. An overprinted clear varnish helps create the ghost images that linger, insisting on their presence through the blackness.}}

The cover appears to be totally black, but upon close examination it reveals the silhouettes of the [[World Trade Center (1973–2001)|World Trade Center]] towers in a darker shade of black. In some situations, the ghost images become visible only when the magazine is tilted toward a light source.<ref>{{Cite web |title=ASME's Top 40 Magazine Covers of the Last 40 Years – ASME |url=http://www.magazine.org/asme/magazine-cover-contests/asmes-top-40-magazine-covers-last-40-years |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181104050040/http://www.magazine.org/asme/magazine-cover-contests/asmes-top-40-magazine-covers-last-40-years |archive-date=November 4, 2018 |access-date=December 23, 2015}}</ref> In September 2004, Spiegelman reprised the image on the cover of his book ''[[In the Shadow of No Towers]]''.

=== "New Yorkistan" ===

In December 2001, the magazine printed a cover by [[Maira Kalman]] and [[Rick Meyerowitz]] showing a map of New York in which neighborhoods are labeled with humorous names reminiscent of Middle Eastern and Central Asian place names and referencing the neighborhood's real name or characteristics (e.g., "Fuhgeddabouditstan", "Botoxia"). The cover had cultural resonance in the wake of September 11, and became a popular print and poster.<ref>{{Cite news |date=February 2002 |title=The New Yorker uncovers an unexpected profit center – Ancillary Profits – by licensing cover illustrations |work=Folio: The Magazine for Magazine Management |url=https://www.highbeam.com/doc/1G1-83296829.html |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160504224203/https://www.highbeam.com/doc/1G1-83296829.html |archive-date=2016-05-04}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news |author=Daniel Grand |date=February 12, 2004 |title=A Print by Any Other Name... |work=OpinionJournal |url=http://www.opinionjournal.com/la/?id=110004685 |url-status=live |access-date=May 9, 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070930202457/http://www.opinionjournal.com/la/?id=110004685 |archive-date=September 30, 2007}}</ref>

On July 21, 2008, "The Politics of Fear", a cartoon by [[Barry Blitt]], was featured on the cover of ''The New Yorker'', depicting then presumptive [[Democratic Party (United States)|Democratic]] [[2008 United States presidential election|presidential]] nominee [[Barack Obama]] in the [[turban]] and [[shalwar kameez]] typical of many [[Muslim]]s, [[fist bump]]ing with his wife, [[Michelle Obama|Michelle]], portrayed with an [[Afro]] and wearing [[Military camouflage|camouflage]] trousers with an [[assault rifle]] slung over her back.

Many ''New Yorker'' readers saw the image as a lampoon of "The Politics of Fear", its title. Some Obama supporters, as well as his presumptive [[Republican Party (United States)|Republican]] opponent, [[John McCain]], accused the magazine of publishing an incendiary cartoon whose irony could be lost on some readers.

==Plot==
The demon king [[Kamsa|Kans]] reigns as a tyrant over the Kingdom of [[Mathura]] and aims to conquer the world. To put an end to his bloodthirsty reign, the gods decide to incarnate on Earth [[Vishnu]], who is born in the form of [[Krishna]], son of [[Devaki]], the sister of Kans. The baby, nephew of the tyrant, is born in the village of [[Vrindavan]], where he is adopted by the village chief, [[Nanda (Hinduism)|Nanda]], who raises him in the same way as his own slightly older son, [[Balarama|Balram]]. Krishna grows up in a good mood and becomes a mischievous little boy, who makes his mother see all the colors and is always ready to play a trick on the [[Gopis|Gopi]], the cowherds who watch over him. But he distinguished himself very early on by his miraculous exploits, and the music of his flute charmed men and beasts. Krishna especially befriends a little girl of his age, [[Radha]] (his future wife in [[Hindu mythology]]), but also befriends several boys, including Madhumangal. He can also count on the help of the monkey Dabiloba and the lamb Hamsi. Krishna must soon come to the aid of the people of the kingdom and face the supernatural perils sent to him by Kans, mainly the demons [[Trinavarta]], [[Bakasura|Bakasur]] and [[Putana|Pootna]]. But, seeing Krishna easily defeating each of his envoys, Kans ends up challenging him to a duel in the coliseum of his capital, resulting in the latter killing him and releasing his parents from the dungeon. Several songs punctuate the film.

'''Maheshwar''' is a [[town]], near [[Khargone|Khargone city]] in [[Khargone district]] of [[Madhya Pradesh]] state, in central [[India]]. It is located on State Highway-38 ([[Khargone|Khargone city]]-[[Barwaha]]- [[Bandheri]] Highway),13.5 km east of National Highway 3 (Agra-Mumbai highway) and 91 km from [[Indore]], the commercial capital of the state. The Town lies on the north bank of the [[Narmada River]]. It was the kingdom of Chakravarty Samrat [[Sahastraarjun]], [[Kartavirya Arjuna]] a [[Heheya]] king. Lately, after many years, it was the capital of the [[Malwa]] during the [[Maratha]] [[House of Holkar|Holkar reign]] till 6 January 1818, when the capital was shifted to [[Indore]] by Malhar Rao Holkar III.

==Etymology==
The word Maheshwar in Hindi means ''Great God, ''an epithet of [[Lord Shiva]].

==History==
Writers such as [[Hasmukh Dhirajlal Sankalia|HD Sankalia]],<ref>{{cite book |author=Hasmukhlal Dhirajlal Sankalia |title=Aspects of Indian History and Archaeology |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=2pwtAAAAMAAJ |year=1977 |publisher=B. R. |page=218 |isbn=9789350500347 }}</ref> [[Pramatha Nath Bose|PN Bose]]<ref name="PNBose_1882">{{cite book |author=PN Bose |publisher=Asiatic Society |location=Calcutta, India |title=Note on Mahishmati |work=Proceedings of the Indian History Congress |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=VVsyAQAAMAAJ&pg=RA1-PA129 |year=1882 |pages=129}}</ref> and [[Francis Wilford]],<ref name="PNBose_1882"/> among others, identify Maheshwar as the ancient town of [[Mahishmati]]. Also known as [[Minnagara]] to Greeko-Romans.

Maheshwar is believed to be built on the site of the ancient city of Somvanshya Shastrarjun Kshatriya, and was the capital of king [[Kartavirya Arjuna]], (Shree Shastrarjun) who is mentioned in the [[Sanskrit]] epics [[Ramayana]] and [[Mahabharata]]. According to a popular legend, one day the King Sahasrarjun and his 500 wives went to the river for a picnic. When the wives wanted a vast play area, the King stopped the mighty river Narmada with his 1000 arms. While they were all enjoying themselves, [[Ravana]] flew by in his Pushpak Vimana. Downstream, when he saw the dry river bed, he thought it was an ideal place to pray to Lord Shiva. He made a Shivalinga out of the sand and began to pray. When Sahasrajuna's wives were done playing and they stepped out of the river bed, he let the waters flow. The voluminous river flowed down sweeping Ravana's Shivalinga along, messing up his prayers. Furious, Ravana tracked Sahasrajuna and challenged him. Armed to the hilt the mighty Ravana was in for a huge surprise. The mighty Sahasrarjuna with the 1000 arms pinned Ravana to the ground. Then he placed 10 lamps on his heads and one on his hand. After tying up Ravana, Sahasrarjuna dragged him home and tied him up to the cradle pole of his son. A humiliated Ravana stayed prisoner until his release was secured. [[Jamadagni]] rishi, [[Renuka]] Devi and Lord [[Parashurama]] with whom Kartavirya Arjuna's story is closely associated also lived nearby.

In Mahabharata,<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.sacred-texts.com/hin/m02/m02030.htm|title=The Mahabharata, Book 2: Sabha Parva: Jarasandhta-badha Parva: Section XXX|website=www.sacred-texts.com}}</ref> there is a narration of an unusual tradition wherein marriage as a civil institution was not universal in Mahishmati unlike in rest of Aryavarta, which is also narrated in the Telugu-language ''[[Andhra Mahabharatam|Andhra Mahabharata]]'' in ‘Sabha parva’.

As per the legend, there was a Nishada king named Nila who ruled over Mahishmati. King Nila had a daughter who was exceedingly beautiful. So much so that [[Agni]] (lord of fire) fell in love with her which was reciprocated. The princess always used to stay near the sacred fire of her father, causing it to blaze up with vigour. And king Nila's sacred fire, even if fanned, would not blaze until agitated by the gentle breath of her lips. Agni, assuming the form of a [[Brahman (cattle)|Brahman]] starts courting with the princess for long. But, one day the couple was discovered by the king, who became furious. Nila thereupon ordered the Brahman to be punished according to law. At this the illustrious deity flamed up in wrath and beholding the terrible flame, the king felt terrified and bent his head low on the ground. King hails Lord Agni and says he cannot punish a god who is responsible for the origin of Vedas, source of all Knowledge and Dharma. Pacified Agni then grants a boon to Nishada, and the King requests for the protection of his kingdom from any invasions. Agni swears to protect his kingdom on the condition that the king should sanctify pleasure out of pure love a legitimate action in his kingdom. Liberated from the orthodoxy of marriage as a prelude, women of Mahishmati enjoyed freedom that was then unheard of elsewhere in Arya-Varta.

Years later, after the epic war the victorious [[Yudhishthira]] plans on conducting a [[Yagna]] by winning over everyone else on Earth. [[Sahadeva]], the youngest of Pandavas knowing that Lord Agni was protecting the Nishada kingdom, prays to Lord Agni successfully and there upon moves to [[Saurashtra people|Saurashtra]] kingdom.<ref>{{Cite book|title=Andhra Mahabharatha}}</ref>{{page needed|date=May 2016}}

Of note, even to this day, the Sahasrarjun temple at Maheshwar lights 11 lamps in honour of Lord Agni blessing the Kingdom. Alternatively, this tradition is attributed to Sahasrarjun queens humiliating captive ten-headed Ravana by lighting up candles on his foreheads.

In the late eighteenth century, Maheshwar served as the capital of the great [[Maratha]] queen [[Rajmata Ahilya Devi Holkar]]. She embellished the city with many buildings and public works, and it is home to her palace, as well as numerous temples, a [[fort]], and riverfront ''ghats'' (broad stone steps which step down to the river).
[[File:Fort ahilya.jpg|left|thumb|309x309px|Temples situated within Fort Ahilya - A Major Attraction in Maheshwar]]
Jagadguru Kripaluji Maharaj has performed various akhand (continues) sankirtan outside the Shiva temple at Maheshwar for more than months. Even though Kripaluji was from mahu (30 km from Maheshwar), he frequently visited this place in his early life with devotees of lord Krishna to perform sankirtan on the banks of the Narmada river in Maheshwar.

Maheshwar is the home of one of India's finest handloom fabric traditions. It is noted as a centre for weaving colourful [[Maheshwari Saree]] .<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://qohindia.com/collections/all/maheshwari|title=Products|website=Queen of Hearts India}}</ref> It rose to popularity under the rule of strong maratha leader Queen [[Ahilyabai Holkar|Devi Ahilya Bai Holkar]]. Ahilya Bai wanted royal gifts for the royal guest. Hence weavers from Mandu and Surat were hired and [[Maheshwari Saree]] and turban were weaved. It is said that Ahilya Bai herself designed first saree.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://the13thstore.in/blogs/fabric-of-india/maheswari-saris-queen-attire|title=Maheswari Saris – Queen Attire|website=THE 13th STORE|language=en|access-date=2019-09-23}}</ref> These sarees were worn by female members of the royal court. These saris were also gifted to royal guests. You can easily see inspiration of designs in saris in local architecture.

'''Keshav Rai Temple''' is a popular [[Hinduism|Hindu]] temple, situated on the banks of the [[Chambal River]] in [[Keshoraipatan]], [[Rajasthan|Rajasthan (India)]]. The temple is dedicated to ''Keshav Rai'' or [[Vishnu]]. It was constructed by [[Rao Raja Chattar Sal|Rao Raja Chhatrasal]] in 1641.

== History ==
It is believed that Lord Vishnu was pleased with the intense devotion of Raja Ranti Deo. He appeared in the form of two idols, one of Shri Keshavji in white stone and the other of Shri Charbhuja Nath in black Stone. Raja Ranti Deo started the building of the temple in Samvat 1307. This building work was completed in four generations as the domestic conditions of the royal family, palace intrigues and political upheavals disturbed the work which was completed only by fits and starts. Finally the work was brought to completion in the year Samvat 1698 (1641 AD) by [[Rao Raja Chattar Sal]]ji. The famous prayer of lord Keshav Rai "Keshavastak" with Sastriya music melody has recently been written by main priest (pujari) and Vedvigya Pandit Jamna Lal Sharma. As revealed by Pandit Sharma, it is believed that Chambal river takes U-turn after touching the feet of lord Keshav Rai. The temple has another statue of lord Shiva "Jambu Margeshwar" which is located in the same campus in another temple. It is believed that it was founded by Rishi Parasuram who did austerity at Chambal river bank.

== Brief of the deity ==
An idol of Lord Keshavaraiji is seated in a posture of Padmasan or lotus like seating position. The idol is of white stone. The left hand holds a discus while the right hand holds a conch. On the breast lies vaijayantimala and the idol is wearing a Janeu which from the left shoulder goes diagonically to the right side. Initially the pooja of the temple was performed in accordance with the tradition of Ramanuj Sampradaya, but in due course of time, this was replaced by a pooja in accordance with Pushtimargiya tradition. The Pujari of the temple attains priesthood rights by hereditary lineage.

== Architecture ==
The temple stands on a strong base of a very big platform. The grand and imposing temple has beautiful entrance in the typical style of architecture adopted for the main gates of the temples of medieval times. The walls have an elaborate carving work and images of various Gods and Goddesses have been incurved.On the shikhar itself images of gods and goddesses nymphs and fairies, Yakshas and Gandarvas have been incurved. There appeared to be four stories of the Shikhar. Because in every story there is a shrine like projection on the frontage within which images of gods and Ggddesses have been incurved. The uppermost portion tapers off and on the top there is a Kalash. This shikhar is on the sanctum sanctorum. The shikhar on the Jagmohan is in the round shape. What makes the temple magnificent and artistically rich is the immaculate sculpture and architecture.

To the countless images on the shikhar and panels of the temple, the floral patterns, images of animals and mythical features of gods and goddesses and demons. The interior of the Jagmohan also has beautiful design in which circular patterns have been drawn and joining these circles interlacing patterns have also been made. Again images of Gods and Goddesses are shown in these circles. The outer portion of the temple is of two storeys over which canopies in the typical Rajasthani style have been built. Behind the entrance, the structure of the building is wider and the third portion is still wider. Every where wherever there is scope, images of animals of elephants, horses and images of gods and goddesses have been encarved.

== Religious aspects ==
The temple commands respect of the masses, the visitors first take a dip in the holy water of the Chambal river and then they have a darshan of Lord Keshavaraiji.

== Festivals and fairs ==
Kartik poornima, Holi, Dusshera, Dol Yatra, Sharad Poornima, Janmasthmi and Ram Navmi.

Many devotees take baths in the Chambal River during Kartik poornima and take part in the Kartik fair.

== Plot ==
Saravanan is a bus driver and Kili is the bus cleaner in a college. He also takes care of an orphanage which is home to many children and old-aged people. Indhu, a student of the college, tries to woo Saravanan. Meanwhile, a few rowdies are found dead. Those rowdies happened to be henchmen of Chakravarthy, a local powerful politician. It is revealed that Saravanan is the man behind the murders.

A flashback is shown where Saravanan's actual name is Chatrapathy. He is an army major and recipient of [[Param Vir Chakra]], the highest military decoration in India. On his visit to his native village in Tamil Nadu, Chatrapathy finds that Chakravarthy has grabbed majority of the land in his village from poor farmers with plans of constructing a beer factory. Chakravarthy also troubles Chatrapathy's widowed sister by forcing her to hand over her land where she runs a small orphanage. As Chatrapathy opposes this, Chakravarthy and his henchmen beat up Chatrapathy and his sister cheating, following which she dies. They also demolish the orphanage, which leads to the deaths of a few children. They also finally grab the land. An angered Chatrapathy kills Chakravarthy's henchmen and goes into hiding to escape from police, waiting for an opportunity to kill Chakravarthy.

Chakravarthy finds out that Chatrapathy is behind him for taking revenge and tries to protect himself. However Chatrapathy kills Chakravarthy cheating in the end and surrenders to the police. The court hands over Chatrapathy to the army.

}}'''Bardhaman''' ({{IPAc-en|ˈ|b|ɔr|d|ə|ˌ|m|ɑː|n|}}, {{IPA|bn|ˈbɔrˌd̪ʱo.man|lang|}}), officially '''Bardhaman Sadar''', is a city and municipality located on the northern bank of the [[Damodar River|Damodar]] river in the state of [[West Bengal]], India. It is the headquarters of [[Purba Bardhaman district]], having become a district capital during the [[British India|period of British rule]]. '''Burdwan''', an alternative name for the city, has remained in use since then.
==Etymology==
The history of Burdwan is known from about 5000 BC (the Mesolithic or Late Stone Age).<ref>{{Cite web |title=History and Background |url=https://purbabardhaman.nic.in/history/ |website=Purba Bardhaman District, Government of West Bengal, India |access-date=30 April 2024}}</ref> The origin of this name dates back to the sixth century BCE and is ascribed to Vardhamāna or [[Mahavira|Mahāvīra]] (599-527 BCE), the 24th [[Tirthankara|Tīrthāṅkara]] of [[Jainism]], who spent some time in Astikagrama, according to the Jain scripture of [[Kalpa Sūtra]]. This place was renamed as ''Vardhamana'' in his honour.

==History==
The city owes its historical importance to being the headquarters of the Maharajas of Burdwan, the premier noblemen of lower Bengal, whose rent-roll was upwards of 300,000. [[Bardhaman Raj]] was founded in 1657 by Sangam Rai, of a Hindu Khatri family of Kotli in [[Lahore]], [[Punjab region|Punjab]], whose descendants served in turn the [[Mughal Emperor]]s and the [[British government]]. The [[East Indian Railway]] from [[Howrah]] was opened in 1855. The great prosperity of the raj was due to the excellent management of Maharaja Mahtab Chand (died 1879), whose loyalty to the government especially during the "Hul" ([[Santhal rebellion]]) of 1855-56 and the [[Indian rebellion of 1857]] was rewarded with the grant of a coat of arms in 1868 and the right to a personal salute of 13 guns in 1877. Maharaja [[Bijaychand Mahtab]] (born 1881), who succeeded his adoptive father in 1888, earned great distinction by the courage with which he risked his life to save that of [[Sir Andrew Fraser]], the lieutenant-governor of Bengal, on the occasion of the attempt to assassinate him made by freedom fighters of Bengal on 7 November 1908.<ref name=EB1911>{{EB1911|inline=1|wstitle=Burdwan|volume=4|page=811}}</ref>

Mahtab Chand Bahadur and later Bijoy Chand Mahtab struggled their best to make this region culturally, economically and ecologically healthier. The chief educational institution was the Burdwan Raj College, which was entirely supported out of the maharaja's estate. [[Kamalakanta Bhattacharya (West Bengal)|Sadhak Kamalakanta]] as composer of devotional songs and Kashiram Das as a poet and translator of the great [[Mahabharata]] were possibly the best products of such an endeavour. Pratap Chandra Roy was the publisher of the first translation in the world to translate [[Mahabharata]] in English (1883–1896).<ref name=tra>{{cite book |title=The Mahabharata Book 1: Adi Parva |author= Kisari Mohan Ganguli tr.|chapter= Translator's Preface|year=1883|page=xii |chapter-url=http://www.sacred-texts.com/hin/m01/m01001.htm}}</ref> The society at large also continued to gain the fruits. We find, among others, the great rebel poet [[Kazi Nazrul Islam]] and Kala-azar-famed U. N. Brahmachari as the relatively recent illustrious sons of this soil. [[Batukeshwar Dutt]] an Indian revolutionary and independence fighter in the early 1900s was born on 18 November 1910 in a village Oari in Burdwan district. He is best known for having exploded a few bombs, along with [[Bhagat Singh]], in the Central Legislative Assembly in New Delhi on 8 April 1929. The city became an important centre of North-[[Indian classical music]] as well.

==Culture==
{{unreferenced section|date=March 2014}}
Bardhaman has a multi-cultural heritage. The [[deul]]s (temples of [[rekha]] type) found here are reminiscent of Bengali Hindu architecture. The old temples bear signs of ancient [[Hinduism]], mostly belonging to the [[Shakti|Sakta]] and [[Vaishnava]] followers.

The Kankaleswari [[Kali]] is also located in the city of Bardhaman. Bardhaman experienced and survived numerous violent conflicts, due to [[Mughal Empire|Mughal]], [[Pashtun people|Pashtun]] and [[Maratha]] invaders. The city of Bardhaman was visited by notables of the [[Delhi Sultanate]] from Raja Todarmal to [[Daud Khan Karrani|Daud Karrani]], from [[Sher Afghan Khan]] and Kutub-ud-din to Ajimuswan to the future Mughal emperor [[Shah Jahan]] while he was still a rebel. Bardhaman also has a number of Bengali Christians, and although they are a minority, there are many churches in the city.

It was after the abolition of the [[Zamindar]]i system in the fifties that [[Bardhaman Raj#Udaychand Mahtab|Uday Chand Mahtab]], the last representative of the Burdwan Raj, left his entire property in Burdwan to the state government. This, coupled with the initiative of the then [[Chief Minister of West Bengal]], [[Bidhan Chandra Roy]], facilitated the establishment of this university. Presently, the administrative works are mostly done at the Rajbati (the palace of Barddhamana Maharaja) campus; on the other hand, academic activities centre on the Golapbag campus. With social responsibilities in mind, the university actively patronised the construction of a science centre and the Meghnad Saha Planetarium.

==Biography==
===Family and early years===
Joy Goswami was born on November 10, 1954, in [[Kolkata]]. Shortly after his birth, his family moved to [[Ranaghat]], a town beside the [[Churni River]] in [[Nadia district|Nadia]]. His father, Madhu Goswami, was a well-known freedom fighter in the area. His mother, Sabita Goswami, worked as a school teacher. At the age of eight, he lost his father and was raised by his mother. Joy attended Ranaghat High School but dropped out from his courses in class 11.<ref>{{Cite book |last1=Goswami |first1=Joy |title=Selected poems |last2=Chattarji |first2=Sampurna |date=2018 |publisher=Harper Perennial |isbn=978-93-5277-497-5 |location=Noida, Uttar Pradesh, India}}</ref>

===Early writing===
As a quiet kid, Joy kept a journal. One day, his brother found it and read his poems out loud to friends, humiliating him. He decided to stop writing but later changed his mind. To protect his thoughts, he wrote in a way that would confuse anyone who tried to read them. He said, “There was this simultaneous process of trying to give vent to my thoughts as well as an attitude of trying to hide what I was trying to express. That is what I would call the birth of metaphor.”<ref name=":0" /> Thus at 13, he wrote his first poem about the [[ceiling fan]] in his room.<ref>{{Cite web |last= |date=2007-06-16 |title=Celebrated Bengali poet crosses language barrier |url=https://twocircles.net/2007jun16/celebrated_bengali_poet_crosses_language_barrier.html |access-date=2025-04-12 |website=TwoCircles.net |language=en-US}}</ref>

His poem was first published at 19 in three magazines: ''Simanta Sikha'', ''Paddokhep'', and ''Homsikha''. For the next 15–16 years, he wrote extensively for [[Little magazine|little magazines]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=জয় গোস্বামী |url=https://www.milansagar.com/kobi/joy_goswami/kobi-joygoswami.html |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240713030116/https://www.milansagar.com/kobi/joy_goswami/kobi-joygoswami.html |archive-date=July 13, 2024 |access-date=2025-04-12 |website=www.milansagar.com |language=Bn}}</ref>
===Career===
His first poetry collection, ''[[Christmas o Sheeter Sonnetguchcho (Sonnets of Christmas and Winter)]]'', was published in 1976 with only eight poems. He financed the publication with 145 INR, borrowed from his mother. His first poem in [[Desh (magazine)|Desh]] appeared in 1976. In 1978, he again relied on his mother's support to publish his second book, ''[[Pratnjiv (book)|Pratnjiv]]''. His third collection, ''[[Aleya Hrod (book)|Aleya Hrod]]'', was published in 1981 after poet [[Shankha Ghosh]] helped him find a publisher.

After thirty years in Ranaghat, he returned to Kolkata where he has continued to live ever since.

In 2001, he joined the [[International Writing Program]] at the [[University of Iowa]], sponsored by the [[U.S. Department of State]].<ref name=":0">{{Cite web |last=Subramaniam |first=Arundhathi |title=Joy Goswami (poet) - India - Poetry International |url=https://poetryinternationalweb.org/pi/site/poet/item/2722/27/Joy-Goswami |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20241108085338/https://poetryinternationalweb.org/pi/site/poet/item/2722/27/Joy-Goswami |archive-date=November 8, 2024 |access-date=2025-03-22 |website=poetryinternationalweb.org}}</ref>

In a review for [[Anandabazar Patrika]], [[Bhaskar Chakraborty]] praised Joy Goswami’s second poetry collection, ''[[Pratnajeev (book)|Pratnajeev]]'', writing, “Most poems in this collection are long, each masterful in its form. [...] His words pour like a fountain, erasing the boundaries of time—at times imagining a world millions of years ahead, at others capturing the mysteries of the present. His themes are sweeping, filled with haunting imagery—scorched earth, fear, and an unexpected cast of lovers, ghosts, and witches.”<ref>{{Cite book |last=চক্রবর্তী |first=ভাস্কর |title=গদ্যসমগ্র |publisher=Bhashabandhan Prakashani |edition=1st |location=Kolkata-32 |publication-date=2013 |page=238 |language=bn |trans-title=A collection of prose}}</ref>

His mother died in 1984. He has received the Anita-Sunil Basu Award from the Bangla Academy, Govt of W.B. the prestigious [[Ananda Purashkar]] in 1989 for [[Ghumiyechho, Jhaupata? (poetry collection)|''Ghumiyechho, Jhaupata?'' (Have you slept, pine leaf?)]] and the [[Sahitya Akademi]] Award, 2000 for his anthology [[Pagali Tomar Sange|''Pagali tomara sange'' (With you, O crazy girl)]]. He possesses a great deal of admiration for [[Mamata Banerjee|Mamata Bandyopadhyay]] and openly extends his support for her, for which he has also been criticised.

In 1976, he joined [[Desh (magazine)|Desh]] as a staff writer and later served as the magazine's poetry editor. In his role, he brought diverse poets into the fold of the Ananda Bazar Patrika group, and bridged the gap between alternative literary circles and a wider middle-class readership in the 1990s.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Chakravarty |first=Prasanta |title=Divergences within amalgamation in contemporary Bengali poetry |url=https://www.goethe.de/ins/in/lp/prj/ptp/mag/en15311671.htm |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231205024722/https://www.goethe.de/ins/in/lp/prj/ptp/mag/en15311671.htm |archive-date=December 5, 2023 |access-date=March 24, 2025 |website=Goethe Institut}}</ref>

After leaving [[Desh (magazine)|Desh]], he became a staff writer at [[Sangbad Pratidin]], where he wrote a Sunday column on poetry criticism. He was laid off from the position in 2019. After knowing about his condition, the [[Chief minister (India)|state CM]] [[Mamata Banerjee]] appointed him in a state-funded institution.<ref>{{Cite book |last=গোস্বামী |first=জয় |title=কবিতা প্রকাশের ৫০ বছরে |date=2024 |language=Bn}}</ref>

===Poems===
====''Malatibala Balika Vidyalaya (Malatibala Girls' School)''====
The second poem from ''Aaj Jodi Amake Jiges Koro (If You Ask Me Today)'' is a 32-line monologue that follows a woman reminiscing her teenage love for Benimadhob—who never noticed her and was already engaged. The poem explores Bengali society’s subtle prejudice against dark-skinned, lower-middle-class people. It is noted for its musicality, which is difficult to preserve in translation. In 1996, Samir Chattopadhyay and [[Lopamudra Mitra]] adapted it into a widely popular song, now available on YouTube. Some of the lines are also frequently [[Allusion|alluded]] to in literature and media.
===Short stories===
====''Mallar Jekhane Name''====
Joy Goswami's best-known short stories include ''Mallar Jekhane Name (Where Mallar Descends)''. "Mallar," or "Malhar" is a [[Malhar|Hindustani classical raga]] linked to [[Heavy rain (meteorology)|heavy rains]].

Set in the 1990s, the story follows a middle-aged poet and a college girl who meets him daily on his commute. A fervent admirer, she bombards him with questions about his works, making the introverted poet uneasy as it draws curious stares from fellow passengers. The poet never gets angry at her—because he doesn’t know how. At times, something close to anger stirs within him. But he swallows it.

The story unfolds in three parts. In the first, they converse on his way to work. In the second, the poet, lost in thought, reflects on his life—his relationships, a clash with a political figure at a poetry summit, his sexuality, his writing—and finds solace in the raga, [[Malhar|Mallar]]. In the third part, on a train to a literary summit, the girl confesses to writing him a letter she never sent, calling it an imaginary conversation. She keeps ticket stubs from their meetings, which he finds absurd. She asks him to read poems at the summit from her favorite book of his. She won’t stop insisting.

Then, all of a sudden, the poet imagines Mallar descending. Outside, the sun blazes, and the train paces, but the world around him fades into a night sky sealed with heavy rain. He tries to resist, but he cannot. He imagines the earth’s heartbeat rising from the deepest trench—a deep, pounding rhythm.

And the girl asks, "You'll read it, won’t you? Please say you will."

The poet, unable to control his rage, gets up on his feet. Blood flickers in his eyes. His hands, his legs, tremble violently. And he wails: "Say one more word, and I’ll tear your tongue out! Where were you when I was twenty-five? Where were you?!"<ref>{{Cite book |last=Goswami |first=Joy |title=Galpasamagra |publisher=Dey's Publishing |isbn=978-93-89377-51-4 |location=Kolkata |publication-date=2020 |pages=9–19 |language=bn |trans-title=Short story collection}}</ref>
==Political views==

Joy Goswami has consistently raised his voice against state brutalities, genocide, and [[Weapon of mass destruction|weapons of mass destructions]].<ref name=":2">{{Cite web |title=writers |url=https://www.almostisland.com/writers |access-date=2025-04-11 |website=almostisland |language=en-US}}</ref> After India's [[Pokhran-II|second nuclear test]] in May 1998—coincidentally on the anniversary of his mother's death 14 years earlier—he wrote the poem ''[[Ma Nishad (poem)|Ma Nishad]]'', published in ''[[Desh (magazine)|Desh]]''.

On March 21, 2022, [[Trinamool Congress|AITC]] leader Bhadu Sheikh was murdered at the Bogtui intersection in [[Rampurhat]], [[Birbhum district|Birbhum]]. That night, a riot broke out, resulting in the deaths of eight people who were burned alive.<ref>{{Cite news |last=Singh |first=Shiv Sahay |date=2022-12-13 |title=Accused in Bogtui killing case dies in CBI custody |url=https://www.thehindu.com/news/cities/kolkata/accused-in-bogtui-killing-case-dies-in-cbi-custody/article66255796.ece |access-date=2025-03-23 |work=The Hindu |language=en-IN |issn=0971-751X}}</ref> In response, Goswami published [[Dagdha (poetry collection)|''Dagdha'' ''(দগ্ধ)'']], a collection of eight poems.

==Writing style==
Joy Goswami has been writing poetry for half a century on a wide range of topics—from the human mind, desires, and details of life to the very essence of human existence, as well as [[Pokhran-II|nuclear weapon tests]] and [[atomic theory]]. He has experimented with different forms and structures, causing his style to vary widely over the years, and some critics have compared it to that of [[Rabindranath Tagore]]. Yet, he says he has yet to find a definitive language that truly expresses his thoughts.<ref name=":1">{{Cite news |last=মজুমদার |first=অভীক |title=অণু থেকে অতিকায় |url=https://www.anandabazar.com/editorial/essays/a-special-write-about-the-indian-poet-joy-goswami/cid/1559107 |work=[[Anandabazar Patrika]]}}</ref>

Talking to a section of media recently Rani said, "In 2004 I was shooting for a Bhojpuri film titled ''[[Sasura Bada Paisawala]]'' and one day we were shooting a sequence in a temple where I have to bang my head on the floor. And while the shoot was on a few media people had come to interview me also there was a lot of crowd was also watching the shoot. So my director thought revealing my original name might create a scene as I am a Muslim. So when someone people asked my name he said Rani and when they asked about my surname so he couldn't think of anything and said Chatterjee as [[Rani Mukerji]] was very famous at that point of time. And she also became famous with this name".<ref name="JanSatta">{{cite news |title=मंदिर की उस घटना ने सबीहा शेख को बना दिया रानी चटर्जी, भड़क गए थे एक्ट्रेस के घरवाले |url=https://www.jansatta.com/photos/picture-gallery/bhojpuri-actress-rani-chatterji-is-muslim-and-her-real-name-is-sabiha-sheikh-this-is-how-she-change-her-identity/1428891/ |access-date=2 February 2021 |work=Jansatta |date=5 June 2020 |language=hi |archive-date=26 October 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211026030653/https://www.jansatta.com/photos/picture-gallery/bhojpuri-actress-rani-chatterji-is-muslim-and-her-real-name-is-sabiha-sheikh-this-is-how-she-change-her-identity/1428891/ |url-status=live }}</ref>

'''Koda''', also known as '''Kora''', '''Kaora''', '''Korali''', '''Korati''', '''Kore''', '''Mudi''', or '''Mudikora''',<ref>{{e21}}</ref> is an endangered [[Munda language]] of [[India]] and [[Bangladesh]] spoken by the [[Kora (tribe)|Kora]]. The Kora mainly live in West Bengal, in the districts of [[Paschim Medinipur district|Paschim Medinipur]] and [[Bankura district|Bankura]], with a few in neighbouring [[Odisha]] and [[Jharkhand]]. In 2005, there were 1,300 speakers in the [[Rajshahi Division]] of Bangladesh, though many said that [[Bengali language|Bengali]] was their best language. Koda is closely related to the [[Kol language (Bangladesh)|Kol language]].

Koda-speaking villages include Kundang and Krishnupur in [[Rajshahi Division]], Bangladesh, while [[Kol language (Bangladesh)|Kol]] villages include Babudaing village.

Koda verbs are inflected for tense-aspect-mood and person, number, finite/infinite, subject/object, possessor, animacy and transitivity. In recent times Koda is code-mixing with Bangla: including vocabulary replacement and greater adoption of Bengali syntax. These processes are seen more in younger speakers.<ref>{{Cite book |last=Lahiri |first=Bornini |title=Queries in Structure of Language |isbn=9788194649977 |pages=131–137 |chapter=Effect of Bangla on Koda verbs |date=2020 |publisher=Central Institute of Indian Languages & Linguistic Society of India |oclc=1419790634 |chapter-url=https://www.researchgate.net/publication/344713421}}</ref>

'''Thirumullaivoyal''' is a western neighbourhood of [[Chennai]] the capital of the [[India]] state of [[Tamil Nadu]], under [[Avadi City Municipal Corporation]] Limits. It is located in the [[Chennai Metropolitan Area]] in [[Thiruvallur district]], {{convert|3|km|abbr=on}} from [[Avadi]] and {{convert|3|km|abbr=on}} from [[Ambattur]] O.T Bus depot. The neighbourhood is served by [[Thirumullaivoyal (Chennai Suburban Railway)|Thirumullaivoyal railway station]] and [[Annanur Railway Station]]. The region was historically part of Thondaimandalam, a region in [[Chola Empire]] during 9th century CE.

The place was originally called Mullaivanam, a forest, after which the suburb is named. The history of the suburb revolves around the [[Masilamaniswara Temple, Thirumullaivoyal|Masilmaninathar temple]]. The place is also one of the five revenue firkas under the Avadi Taluk.<ref>{{cite web|title=Revenue administration|url=https://tiruvallur.nic.in/revenue-administration/|publisher=Tiruvallur district administration|accessdate=11 July 2021}}</ref> The place is a pilgrimage location and also houses several other religious and natural tourist destinations.

==Etymology==
In ancient times, the forest surrounding Tirumullaivayil was ruled by two notorious tribesmen, Vaanan and Onan from the Kurumbar tribe. they are feudal lords of thirumullaivayil. King Thondaiman wanted to the area under his control . All his attempts went futile and finally he decided to defeat them in war. He set out for the war with all his infantry and cavalry with elephants and chariots. En route to the war, they waded through a dense growth of Mullai plants (Jasmine climbers). The foot of the elephant on which he was mounted was entangled in the dense foliage. The king and his men, in an attempt to free the elephant from this mess, went on to cut the wild twines with their swords and daggers. Suddenly they noticed blood gushing out from the leaves and found a 'lingam' bleeding. Shocked, the king was in great distress that he has committed a sin. Seeking mercy and forgiveness from Shiva, he prayed to him. Without any delay Shiva and Parvati appeared before the king lest he indulge in causing self-inflicted injury out of grief. Shiva asked the King to build a temple for him right there and promised that he would reside there as Masilamaniswara, Shiva who is as precious as a gem, but without stains ['maasu' - dirty or stain (caused by the profuse bleeding), 'ila' - without, 'mani' - gem]. It is believed that Shiva also promised to support him in destroying the Kurumbars by sending his holy steed, the Nandi bull. On his orders, the Nandi also gets ready to go and fight for the King. This is why the Nandi in this temple faces outwards, ready to leave for the battle on the orders of Shiva, whereas in all other Shiva temples, it faces inwards facing the sanctum.m.<ref name="dinamalar">{{cite web|title=Sri Othandeeswarar temple|url=https://temple.dinamalar.com/en/new_en.php?id=141|publisher=Dinamalar|access-date=31 May 2014|year=2014}}</ref><ref name=R>{{cite book|title=An introduction to religion and Philosophy - Tévarám and Tivviyappirapantam|last=R.|first=Dr. Vijayalakshmy|publisher=International Institute of Tamil Studies| location=Chennai|year=2001|edition=1st|pages=386–7}}</ref>

==History==
[[File:TMVoyal thirukkulam.JPG|alt=View of the temple tank|250px|thumb|The temple tank|left]]
The history of the region is obtained from the inscriptions from the Masilamninathar temple. It has inscriptions from the period of [[Chola]] and [[Pandya]], as per which, it was located on the banks of a tributary of river [[Palar]].<ref>{{cite book|title=Madras, Chennai: A 400-year Record of the First City of Modern India, Volume 1|editor-last=S.|editor-first=Muthiah|page=107|publisher=Palaniappa Brothers|year=2008|isbn=9788183794688}}</ref> The temple has inscriptions from the period of [[Medieval Cholas]] and has received various architectural additions during their regime. An inscription from the period of [[Uttama Chola]] (970-85 CE) recorded as AR 669 of 1904 indicates that [[Sembiyan Mahadevi]], the mother of Uttama bought 9,300 ''kulis'' of land for 80 ''kalanju'' of gold from the Mahasabha of Ambattur and made a gift to the temple. This is the northernmost of temples where Sembiyan Mahadevi donated for the temple construction. There are also inscriptions from the regime of Parthivendravarman, a feudatory of Uttama Chola, which mentions the reconquest of the regions lost to [[Rashtrakuta dynasty|Rashtrakutas]] during the [[Battle of Takkolam]] fought during 949 CE. Another inscription recorded as 677 and 678 of 1904 from the period of [[Rajendra I]] (1012–1044 CE) records gifts to the temple. There are other inscriptions from subsequent Chola kings like [[Kulothunga Chola III|Kulothunga III]] (1178–1218 CE) and [[Rajaraja III]] (1216–1256 CE). There are inscriptions from [[Pandya]] king [[Jatavarman Sundara Pandyan I]] and from kings of [[Vijayanagara Empire]] like [[Harihara Raya II]] (1377–1404 CE), [[Harihara Raya II]] (1377–1404 CE) and [[Mallikarjuna Raya]] (1446–1465 CE).<ref name=early>{{cite book|title=Early Chola temples Parantaka I to Rajaraja I (AD. 907-985)|last=S.R.|first=Balasubramanyam|year=1975|publisher=Thomson Press (India) Limited|url=http://ignca.gov.in/Asi_data/49443.pdf|pages=209–14}}</ref> The large [[Nandi Bull]] statue is believed to have been built to commemorate the victory of king Thondaiman over two demon brothers.<ref>{{cite book|title=Myth quest 2: Nandi: The Divine gatekeep|page=39|last=Kumar|first=Anuradha|publisher=Hachette UK|year=2012|isbn=9789350093917}}</ref>

The '''39th Garhwal Rifles''' was an [[infantry]] [[regiment]] of the [[British Indian Army]].

==History==
[[File:Typical Garhwal riflemen (Estaire La Bassée Road, France). Photographer- H. D. Girdwood. (13875264813).jpg|thumb|Typical Garhwal riflemen (Estaire La Bassée Road, [[France]]). Photographer- H. D. Girdwood. (13875264813)]]
The first proposal to raise a separate Regiment of the Garhwali's was originated by HE Field Marshal The Hon’ble Sir FS Roberts, VC, KG, KP, GCB, OM, GCSI, GCIE, C-in-C, India in January 1886. In April 1887, orders were issued for raising of the 2nd Battalion of the Third (Kumaon) Gorkha Regiment to be composed of Garhwali's from Upper Garhwal. The initial class composition of the battalion was to consist of six companies of Garhwali's and two companies of Gorkhas. The nucleus with its British officers assembled under Lt Col EP Mainwaring of the Fourth Gorkhas at Almora in May 1887. The date of raising of the battalion was 5 May 1887. Later that year, the battalion marched to Kaludanda (Lansdowne), where it arrived on 4 November 1887. On 1 March 1901, the Second Battalion was raised at Lansdowne by Lt Col JHT Evatt, DSO and was designated as the 49th (The Garhwal Rifles) Regiment of the Bengal Infantry. In November 1901, both the battalions were redesignated as the 1st and 2nd Battalions of The 39th Garhwal Rifles.<ref>{{Citation |title=Garhwal Rifles |date=2025-11-07 |work=Bharatpedia |url=https://en.Bharatpedia.org/w/index.php?title=Garhwal_Rifles&oldid=1320948089 |access-date=2025-11-12 |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite book |last=Evatt, J. |title=Historical Record of the Royal Garhwal Rifles Vol I, 1887–1922. |publisher=Gale and Polden}}</ref>

The [[Victoria Cross]] (VC) is the highest and most prestigious award for gallantry in the face of the enemy that can be awarded to [[United Kingdom|British]] and [[Commonwealth of Nations|Commonwealth]] forces. Indian troops only became eligible for the award in 1911. Three members of the regiment won the award:

* [[Darwan Singh Negi]] was among the earliest [[British Raj|India]]n recipients of the Victoria Cross. A [[Naik (military rank)|Naik]] in the 1st Battalion, 39th Garhwal Rifles during World War I when the following deed took place for which he was awarded the VC, the citation was published in a supplement to ''[[The London Gazette]]'' of 4 December 1914 (dated 7 December 1914) and read:
{{blockquote|For great gallantry on the night of the 23rd–24th November, near [[Festubert]], [[France]], when the regiment was engaged in retaking and clearing the enemy out of our trenches, and, although wounded in two places in the head, and also in the arm, being one of the first to push round each successive traverse, in the face of severe fire from bombs and rifles at the closest range.<ref name=LG_VC1>{{London Gazette | issue=28999 | supp=y |page=10425 | date=7 December 1914 }}</ref>}}
:His award was gazetted on the same date as that of [[Sepoy]] [[Khudadad Khan]], but Negi is considered the first Indian VC winner.<ref name=Haythornthwaite244>{{harvnb|Haythornthwaite|1996|p=244}}</ref>

* [[Gabar Singh Negi]] was a [[Rifleman]] in the 2nd Battalion, 39th Garhwal Rifles, during World War I and was awarded the Victoria Cross for his actions on 10 March 1915 at the [[Battle of Neuve Chapelle]], [[France]].{{sfn|Edmonds|Wynne|1927|p=94}}
{{blockquote|During an attack on the German position Rifleman Gabar Singh Negi was one of a bayonet party with bombs who entered their main trench, and was the first man to go round each [[Traverse (trench warfare)|traverse]], driving back the enemy until they were eventually forced to surrender. He was killed during this engagement.<ref name=LG_VC2>{{London Gazette | issue=29146 | supp=y |page=4143 | date=27 April 1915 }}</ref>}}

* [[William David Kenny]] was a [[lieutenant]] in the 4th Battalion, 39th Garhwal Rifles during the [[Waziristan campaign 1919–1920|Waziristan Campaign]] when the following deed took place for which he was awarded the VC. The citation was published in a supplement to the ''London Gazette'' of 7 September 1920 (dated 9 September 1920):<ref name=LG_VC3>{{London Gazette|issue=32046|supp=y|pages=9133–9134|date=7 September 1920}}</ref>
{{blockquote|For most conspicuous bravery and devotion to duty near [[Kot Kai]] (Waziristan), on 2 January 1920, when in command of a company holding an advanced covering position, which was repeatedly attacked by the [[Mahsud]]s in greatly superior numbers.

For over four hours this officer maintained his position, repulsing three determined attacks, being foremost in the hand-to-hand fighting which took place, and repeatedly engaging the enemy with bomb and bayonet. His gallant leadership undoubtedly saved the situation and kept intact the right flank, on which depended the success of the operation and the safety of the troops in rear.

In the subsequent withdrawal, recognising that a diversion was necessary to enable the withdrawal of the company, which was impeded by their wounded, with a handful of his men he turned back and counter-attacked the pursuing enemy, and, with the rest of his party, was killed fighting to the last.

This very gallant act of self-sacrifice not only enabled the wounded to be withdrawn, but also averted a situation which must have resulted in considerable loss of life.}}

'''Purni Suder Shah''' or '''Purn Suder Shah''', also known as ''The Dwelling Place Of Sufi Saint Suder Shah'', is a village in the [[Budgam district]] in the [[India]]n [[States and union territories of India|union territory]] of [[Jammu and Kashmir (union territory)|Jammu and Kashmir]]. It lies in the [[Narbal]] tehsil of district Budgam, on the eastern side of [[Mazhom railway station]]. It is a small village and only a few generations have lived here. It is recognised for its vegetation and agriculture.

[[File:Purni Suder Shah View From Mazhom Railway Station Side.jpg|thumb|View Purni Suder Shah from Mazhom railway station]]
[[File:Snow Fall in Purni Suder Shah .jpg|thumb|Snow Fall in Purni Suder Shah]]

==History==
The village of Purn was first settled around the year 1800 AD by Abdul Ahad Mir (son of the late Abdul Habib Mir), whose ancestors hailed from the nearby village of [[Kanihama]]. Today, Purn is home to approximately 45-50 households.
Historically, the village was connected to other parts of the district by a single road leading to [http://village.org.in/Archanderhama Archanderhama]. However, in 2023, a new metal road under the Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY) was completed, enhancing connectivity. This new road now links the village directly to Mazhom Railway Station and provides access to the Narbal-Gulmarg Road, significantly improving transportation and access to neighboring regions.
Archaeological evidence suggests that the area was inhabited in ancient times. During excavations for farming purposes, various artifacts, such as terracotta vessels, have been discovered, indicating the presence of early settlers. It is believed that these ancient inhabitants might have abandoned the area due to its vulnerability to floods or, alternatively, might have been displaced or wiped out by a catastrophic event.
The village [[google:Masjid+Bilal+Purni+Sadar+Shah&oq=Masjid+Bilal+Purni+Sadar+Shah&aqs=chrome..69i57j33.2080j0j9&client=ms-android-hmd-rev2&sourceid=chrome-mobile&ie=UTF-8#trex=m t:lcl akp,rc f:,rc ludocids:16859417619718320468,rc q:Masjid%20Bilal%20Purni%20Sadar%20Shah,ru q:Masjid%20Bilal%20Purni%20Sadar%20Shah|''Purni Suder Shah'']] is named after Suder Shah, a Sufi saint who is believed to have lived in the area and is buried in a local graveyard. The name "Purn" derives from the Kashmiri word “purn”, which means "dwelling place," reflecting its historical role as a settlement.

==Geography==
Purni Suder Shah, also known as Pati-Purni Suder Shah, is a small village located in the Kawoosa Jagir area of Tehsil Narbal in the [[Budgam]] district of Jammu and Kashmir, India. The village is situated approximately 2.5 kilometers from the Kanihama-Gulmarg road and about half a kilometer from [[Mazhom railway station]]. Historically, Purni Suder Shah was not directly connected to the railway station or the main district; instead, it was linked to the surrounding areas through a road passing via Archanderhama, which lies in the neighboring [[baramulla]] district.
In 2023, the completion of a new metal road under the Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY) significantly improved connectivity. The road now directly links Purni Suder Shah to [[Mazhom railway station]] and provides a direct route to the Budgam district.

Geographically, the village is positioned at 34.11°N latitude and 74.620°E longitude, with an average elevation of 1,569 meters (5,147 feet) above sea level.

Nearby landmarks include [[Mazhom railway station]], Kanihama (famous for its Kani shawls), Magam (a busy marketplace), Archanderhama, and Habak.

==Education==

==History==
The DSA was originally founded as the '''Delhi Football Association''' in 1926. The parent organisation was founded by Professor Mohammed Zubair Qureshi, along with Sardar Sabha Singh and Youngmen FC secretary RB Sen. Qureshi also served as the first secretary of Delhi FA.<ref>{{Cite news|title=Delhi Football - A trip down memory lane|url=https://www.sportskeeda.com/indian-football/delhi-football-a-trip-down-memory-lane|publisher=Sportskeeda|date=17 November 2012}}</ref> In the 1980s, due to the deep factions, rebel leagues and dual teams emerging for Santosh Trophy from Delhi football environment, the Delhi Soccer Association was formed in order to bring the factions under a single umbrella and reach a compromise following a court ruling in 1992–93. The organisation and logo were rebranded by the then elected President [[Shaji Prabhakaran]] to ''Football Delhi'' in 2017.<ref>{{Cite news|title=DSA: Delhi Soccer Association to get a new name and logo|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/sports/football/top-stories/delhi-soccer-association-to-get-a-new-name-and-logo/articleshow/62292965.cms|publisher=The Times of India|date=29 December 2017}}</ref> This was reversed in 2023, following the election of the President Anuj Gupta.

[[File:Adiyarkku-nallar commentary on Silappathikaram page 10.jpg|250px|thumb|Commentary on Silappathikaram]]
{{Tamil literature}}
The '''Five Great Epics''' ({{langx|ta|ஐம்பெரும்காப்பியங்கள்|Aimperumkāppiyaṅkaḷ}}) are five [[Tamil language|Tamil]] epics according to later Tamil literary tradition. They are ''[[Silappatikaram|Cilappatikāram]]'', ''[[Manimekalai]]'', ''[[Cīvaka Cintāmaṇi]]'', ''[[Valayapathi]]'' and ''[[Kundalakesi]]''.{{sfn|Mukherjee|1999|p=277}}

Three of the five great epics of Tamil literature are attributed to [[Tamil Jain]]s, while two are attributed to [[Tamil Buddhism|Tamil Buddhists]]. ''Cīvaka Cintāmaṇi'', ''Cilappathikāram'', and ''Valayapathi'' were written by [[Tamil Jain]]s, while the ''Manimekalai'' and ''Kundalakesi'' were authored by Buddhists. The first mention of the ''Aimperumkappiyam'' "five large epics" occurs in Mayilainathar's commentary, the ''[[Nannūl]]''. However, Mayilainathar does not mention their titles. The titles are first mentioned in the late-18th-to-early-19th-century work ''Thiruthanikaiula''. Earlier works like the 17th-century poem ''Tamil vidu thoothu'' mention the great epics as ''Panchkavyams''.{{sfn|Zvelebil|1992|p=73}}{{sfn|Purnalingam Pillai|1994|p=115}} Among these, the last two, ''Valayapathi'' and ''Kundalakesi'' are not extant.{{sfn|Das|2005|p=80}}

These five epics were written between the 5th to 10th centuries and act and provide historical information about the society, religions, culture and academic life of [[Tamil people]] over that period. ''Cīvaka Cintāmaṇi'' introduced long verses called ''virutha pa'' in Tamil literature,{{sfn|Datta|2004|p=720}} while ''Cilappatikāram'' used ''akaval'' meter (monologue), a style adopted from [[Tamil Sangams|Sangam]] literature.

===''Cilappatikāram''===
''Cilappatikāram'' also referred to as Silappathikaram or Silappatikaram, is the earliest Tamil epic. It is a poem of 5,730 lines in almost entirely akaval (aciriyam) meter and is a tragic love story of a wealthy couple, Kannaki and her husband Kovalan.{{sfn|Parthasarathy|1993|pp= 1-6, backpage}} It is set in [[Poompuhar]] a seaport city of the [[Early Cholas|early Chola]] kingdom. Kannaki and Kovalan are a newly married couple, blissfully in love.{{sfn|Parthasarathy|1993|pp= 2–5}} Over time, Kovalan meets Madhavi – a courtesan and falls for her, leaves Kannaki and moves in with Madhavi. He spends lavishly on her. Kannaki is heartbroken, but as the chaste woman, she waits despite her husband's unfaithfulness. During the festival for [[Indra]], the rain god, there is a poem recital competition.{{sfn|Parthasarathy|1993|pp= 2–5}} Kovalan recites a poem about a woman who hurt her lover. Madhavi then recites a song about a man who betrayed his lover. Each debated on what is the chasity? and how a woman should be treating her husband. Each interprets the song as a message to the other. Kovalan feels Madhavi is unfaithful to him, leaves her, returns to Kannaki.{{sfn|Parthasarathy|1993|pp= 2–5}} Kovalan is poor, they move to Madurai, and try to restart their life. Kannaki gives him one from her pair of jeweled anklets to sell and raise capital.{{sfn|Parthasarathy|1993|pp= 2–5}} Kovalan sells it to a merchant who grows suspicious of the stranger and falsely accuses of theft of the queen' jeweled anklet which is also missing. The king orders his execution, hurrying the checks and processes of justice.{{sfn|Parthasarathy|1993|pp= 2–5}}<ref name="jp1977">{{cite book|author=E.T. Jacob-Pandian|editor=K Ishwaran|title=Contributions to Asian Studies: 1977|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=VRMVAAAAIAAJ&pg=PA56|year=1977|publisher=Brill Academic|isbn=90-04-04926-6|pages=56–59}}</ref> Kannaki learns what has happened. She protests the injustice and then proves Kovalan's innocence by breaking the remaining anklet of the pair in the court . The king accepts his mistake. Kannaki curses the king and the people of Madurai, tears off her left breast and throws it at the gathered public. The king dies of heartbreak and the city of Madurai is burnt to the ground.{{sfn|Parthasarathy|1993|pp= 2–5}} In the third section of the epic, gods and goddesses meet Kannaki and she goes to heaven with god [[Indra]]. The royal family of the Chera kingdom learns about her, resolves to build a temple with Kannaki as the featured goddess. They go to the Himalayas, bring a stone, carve her image, call her goddess ''Pattini'', dedicate a temple, order daily prayers, and perform a royal sacrifice.{{sfn|Parthasarathy|1993|pp= 2–5}}

===''Manimekalai''===
''Manimekalai'', also spelled Manimekhalai or Manimegalai, Manimekalai, is a Tamil epic composed by Kulavāṇikaṉ Cittalaic Cātaṉār (குல வணிகன் - சீத்தலைச் சாத்தனார்) probably around the 6th century. It is a Buddhist "anti-love" sequel to the ''[[Cilappatikaram]]'', with some characters from it and their next generation.{{sfn|Zvelebil|1974|pp=140–141}} The epic consists of 4,861 lines in akaval meter, arranged in 30 cantos. ''Manimekalai'' is the daughter of Kovalan and Madhavi, who follows in her mother's footsteps as a dancer and a Buddhist nun.{{sfn|Alain Danielou (Translator)|1993}} The epic tells her story. Her physical beauty and artistic achievements seduces the Chola prince Udhayakumara.{{sfn|Alain Danielou (Translator)|1993|pp=xxi–xxiv}} He pursues her. She, a nun of Mahayana Buddhism persuasion, is committed to free herself from human ties. She rejects his advances, yet finds herself drawn to him.{{sfn|Zvelebil|1974|p=141}} She hides, prays and seeks the help of her mother, her Buddhist teacher Aravana Adikal and angels. They teach her Buddhist mantras to free herself from fears. One angel helps her magically disappear to an island while the prince tries to chase her, grants her powers to change forms and appear as someone else. On the island, she receives a magic begging bowl. Later, she takes the form and dress of a married woman in the neighborhood, as the prince pursues her.{{sfn|Zvelebil|1974|p=141}} The husband sees the prince tease her, and protects "his wife" – Manimekalai-in-hiding – by killing the prince. The king and queen learn of their son's death, order the arrest of Manimekalai, arrange a henchman to kill her. Angels intervene and Manimekalai miraculously disappears as others approach her, again. The queen understands and repents. Manimekalai is set free. Manimekalai converts the prison into a hospice to help the needy, teaches the king the dharma of the [[Buddha]].{{sfn|Alain Danielou (Translator)|1993|pp=xxi–xxiv}} In the final five cantos of the epic, Buddhist teachers recite main doctrines of Buddhism. She goes to goddess [[Kannaki]] temple in Vanci (Chera kingdom), prays, listens to different religious scholars, and practices severe self-denial to attain [[Nirvana (Buddhism)|Nirvana]] (release from rebirths).{{sfn|Alain Danielou (Translator)|1993|pp=xxi–xxiv}}{{sfn|Zvelebil|1974|p=141}}

===''Cīvaka Cintāmaṇi''===
''Cīvaka Cintāmaṇi'', an epic of the 10th century CE was written by Thiruthakka Thevar, a [[Jain]] monk. The epic is organized into 13 cantos and contains 3,145 quatrains in viruttam poetic meter. It narrates a supernatural fantasy story of a prince who is the perfect master of all arts, perfect warrior and perfect lover with numerous wives.{{sfn|Zvelebil|1974|pp=136–137}}{{sfn|David Shulman|2016|pp=176–182}} The epic begins with the story of a treacherous coup, where the king helps his pregnant queen escape in a peacock-shaped air machine but is himself killed. The queen gives birth to a boy. She hands him over to a loyal servant to raise and becomes a nun herself.{{sfn|Zvelebil|1974|pp=136–137}} The boy grows up into a super-human man perfect in every art, every skill, every field of knowledge. He excels in war and peace, kills his enemies, wins over and marries every pretty girl he meets, then regains the kingdom his father had lost. After enjoying power, sex and begetting many sons with his numerous wives, he renounces the world and becomes a Jain ascetic.{{sfn|Zvelebil|1974|pp=136–137}}{{sfn|David Shulman|2016|pp=176–178}}

===''Kundalakesi''===
The ''Kundalakesi'' epic has partially survived into the modern age in fragments, such as in commentaries written centuries later. From these fragments, it appears to be a tragic love story about a Hindu{{sfn|Zvelebil|1992|p=71}} or Jain{{sfn|Zvelebil|1992|p=70}} girl of merchant caste named Kundalakesi who falls in love with Kalan – a Buddhist criminal on a death sentence.{{sfn|Zvelebil|1974|p=142}} The girl's rich merchant father gets the criminal pardoned and freed, the girl marries him. Over time, their love fades and they start irritating each other. During an argument, Kundalakesi reminds him of his criminal past which angers Kalan. A few days later, he invites her to a hike up a hill.{{sfn|Zvelebil|1974|p=142}} When they reach the top, he tells her that he will now kill her. The wife requests that he let circum-ambulate him – her husband – three times like a god, before her death and he agrees. When she is behind him, she pushes her husband over into the valley below and kills him. She feels remorse for her actions and pines for the boy she once fell in love with and married. She meets teachers of various religious traditions, adopts Buddhism, renounces and becomes a nun, then achieves Nirvana.{{sfn|Zvelebil|1992|p=71}}{{sfn|Zvelebil|1974|p=142}}

===''Vaḷaiyāpati''===
''Vaḷaiyāpati'' is another lost work, that has survived in fragments as quoted in other Tamil texts. There is no actual story for ''Vaḷaiyāpati or'' Valayapathi. The story that is popularly spread in books and internet has no connection with the poem or its core moral. Through some misinterpreted oral and written traditions ''Vaḷaiyāpati'' poem got a story and no one has challenged it yet. According, to the mystical story - It is a story of a father known as Navakodi Narayanan who has two wives, abandons his second wife from lower caste who gives birth to their son, and the son grows up and seeks his real father.{{sfn|Zvelebil|1992|pp=73–74}} The available content and the commentaries that mention ''Valayapathi'', suggest that it was partly a [[Jainism|Jain]] text that disputed and criticized other Indian religions,{{sfn|Purnalingam Pillai|1994|pp=132–134}} that it supported the ideologies found in early [[Jainism]], such as asceticism, horrors at meat consumption, and monastic aversion to women.{{sfn|Zvelebil|1992|pp=73–75}} It is therefore "almost certain" to be a Jain epic, written by a Jain ascetic, states Kamil Zvelebil – a Tamil literature scholar.{{sfn|Zvelebil|1992|pp=73–75}} However, the substantial sections on Shaivism have led to uncertainty.{{sfn|Zvelebil|1992|pp=73–75}}

==Style==
The great Tamil commentator Atiyarkkunallar (12th–13th century CE) wrote that poems were of two kinds – ''Col thodar nilai ceyyuḷ'' ({{lang|ta|சொல் தொடர் நிலை செய்யுள்}}) or poems connected by their formal properties and ''Poruḷ toṭar nilai ceyyuḷ'' ({{lang|ta|பொருள் தொடர் நிலை செய்யுள்}}) or poems connected by content that forms a unity.{{sfn|Zvelebil|1974|p=130}} ''Cilappatikāram'', the Tamil epic is defined by Atiyarkkunallar as ''Iyal icai nāṭaka poruḷ toṭar nilai ceyyuḷ'' ({{lang|ta|இயல் இசை நாடக பொருள் தொடர் நிலை செய்யுள்}}), poems connected by content that unites with elements of poetry, music and drama.{{sfn|Zvelebil|1974|p=130}}{{sfn|Purnalingam Pillai|1904|p=69}} Such stanzas are defined as {{Transliteration|ta|[[kāvya]]}} and {{Transliteration|ta|kappiyam}} in Tamil. In Mayilainathar's commentary (14th century CE) on the grammar ''[[Naṉṉūl]]'', there is the first mention of {{Transliteration|ta|aimperumkappiyam}}, the five great epics of Tamil literature.{{sfn|Zvelebil|1974|p=130}}

Each of these epics have long cantos, like in ''Cilappatikāram'', which has 30 referred as monologues sung by any character in the story or by an outsider as his monologue related to the dialogues he has known or witnessed.{{sfn|Zvelebil|1974|p=131}} It has 25 cantos composed in ''akaval'' meter, used in most poems in Sangam literature. The alternative for this meter is called ''aicirucappu'' (verse of teachers) associated with verse composed in learned circles.{{sfn|Pollock|2003|p=295}} ''Akaval'' is a derived form of verb {{Transliteration|ta|akavu}} which means "to call" or "beckon". ''Cilappatikāram'' is an example of the claim that folk songs institutionalised literary culture with the best-maintained cultures rooted in folk origin.{{sfn|Pollock|2003|p=295}} ''Manimekalai'' is an epic in ''ahaval'' metre and is noted for its simple and elegant description of natural scenery.{{sfn|Purnalingam Pillai|1904|p=68}} ''Cīvaka Cintāmaṇi'' is one of the earliest works of Tamil literature in long verses called ''virutha pa''.{{sfn|Datta|2004|p=720}}

==Five minor Tamil epics==
{{main|Five Minor Epics}}
Similar to the five great epics, Tamil literary tradition classifies five more works as ''Ainchirukappiyangal'' ({{langx|ta|ஐஞ்சிறுகாப்பியங்கள்}}) or five minor epics. The five lesser Tamil epics are ''[[Neelakesi]]'', ''[[Naga Kumara Kaviyam]]'', ''[[Udayana Kumara Kaviyam|Udhyana kumara Kaviyam]]'', ''[[Yashodhara Kaviyam]]'' and ''[[Culamani]]''.{{sfn|Mukherjee|1999|p=277}}{{sfn|Parmeshwaranand|2001|p=1151}}

==Historiography==
[[U. V. Swaminatha Iyer]] (1855–1942 CE) resurrected the first three epics from neglect and wanton destruction of centuries.{{sfn|Lal|2001|pp=4255–4256}} He reprinted the literature present in the palm leaf form to paper books.{{sfn|Purnalingam Pillai|1994|p=194}} Ramaswami Mudaliar, a Tamil scholar first gave him the palm leaves of ''Cīvaka Cintāmaṇi'' to study.{{sfn|Lal|2001|pp=4255–4256}} Swaminatha Iyer faced difficulties in interpretation, missing leaves, textual errors and unfamiliar terms.{{sfn|Lal|2001|pp=4255–4256}} He set for journeys to remote villages in search of the manuscripts. After years of toil, he published ''Cīvaka Cintāmaṇi'' in book form in 1887 CE followed by ''Cilappatikāram'' in 1892 CE and ''Manimekalai'' in 1898 CE.{{sfn|Lal|2001|pp=4255–4256}} Along with the text, he added much commentary and explanatory notes of terms, textual variations and context.{{sfn|Lal|2001|pp=4255–4256}}

===Criticism and comparison===
[[File:Statue of Kannagi.jpg|thumb|200px|right|Statue of [[Kannagi (Tamil mythology)|Kannagi]] at [[Chennai]] [[Marina Beach]].]]
"After the last line of a poem, nothing follows except literary criticism," observes Iḷaṅkō in ''Cilappatikāram''. The postscript invites readers to review the work. the five poems are criticized for being unfamiliar and difficult to understand. To some critics, ''Maṇimēkalai'' is more interesting than ''Cilappatikāram'', but in literary evaluation, it seems inferior.{{sfn|Zvelebil|1974|p=141}} The story of ''Maṇimēkalai'' with all its superficial elements seems to be of lesser interest to the author whose aim was pointed toward spread of Buddhism.{{sfn|Zvelebil|1974|p=141}} In the former, ethics and religious are artistic, while in the latter reverse is the case. ''Maṇimēkalai'' criticizes Jainism and preaches the ideals of Buddhism, and human interest is diluted in supernatural features. The narration in ''akaval'' meter moves on in ''Maṇimēkalai'' without the relief of any lyric, which are the main features of ''Cilappatikāram''.{{sfn|Zvelebil|1974|p=142}} ''Maṇimēkalai'' in puritan terms is not an epic poem, but a grave disquisition on philosophy.<ref name="cal"/>

There are effusions in ''Cilappatikāram'' in the form of a song or a dance, which does not go well with the Western audience as they are assessed to be inspired on the spur of the moment.{{sfn|Panicker|2003|p=7}} Calcutta review claims that the three works on a whole have no plot and insufficient length characterization for an epic genre.<ref name="cal"/> They believe plot of ''Cīvaka Cintāmaṇi'' is monotonous and deficient in variety in strength and character and does not stand the quality of an epic.<ref name="cal">University of Calcutta 1906, pp. 426–427</ref>

==Popular culture==
There have been multiple movies based on ''Silappathikaram''. The most famous is the portrayal of Kannagi by actress Kannamba in the 1942 Tamil movie ''[[Kannagi (1942 film)|Kannagi]]'' with P.U. Chinnappa as Kovalan. The movie faithfully follows the story of ''Silappathikaram'' and was a hit when it was released. The movie ''[[Poompuhar (movie)|Poompuhar]]'', penned by [[M. Karunanidhi]], is also based on ''Silapathikaram''.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://movies.msn.com/movies/movie/kannagi/ |title=Kannagi (1942) – Overview – MSN Movies |access-date=2011-12-17 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120322002345/http://movies.msn.com/movies/movie/kannagi/ |archive-date=2012-03-22 |url-status=dead }}</ref> There are multiple dance dramas as well by some of the exponents of [[Bharatanatyam]] (a South Indian dance form) in Tamil as most of the verses of ''Silappathikaram'' can be set to music.{{citation needed|date=July 2020}}

''Maṇimēkalai'' has been shot as a teleserial in [[Doordarshan]].{{citation needed|date=July 2020}}

In 2000, when Uttar Pradesh was reorganised by forming [[Uttarakhand|Uttaranchal]] out of its northern areas, Allahabad division and the district was majorly reorganised too. The [[Etawah]], [[Farrukhabad]], [[Kanpur Nagar district|Kanpur Nagar]] and [[Kanpur Dehat district|Kanpur Dehat]] districts of the Allahabad division were made into a separate [[Kanpur division]]. Parts of the western areas of Allahabad district were carved out to create a new district named [[Kaushambi district|Kaushambi]]. At the same time, [[Pratapgarh, Uttar Pradesh|Pratapgarh]] district, that falls in the [[Awadh]] region, was included in the Allahabad division.

Since 2000, Prayagraj division consists of the following districts:-
* [[Fatehpur district|Fatehpur]]
* [[Kaushambi district|Kaushambi]]
* [[Pratapgarh district, Uttar Pradesh|Pratapgarh]]
* [[Prayagraj district|Prayagraj]]

Prior to 2000, Allahabad division consisted of all the districts of the lower Doab:-
* [[Prayagraj district|Allahabad]]
* [[Etawah district|Etawah]]
* [[Farrukhabad district|Farrukhabad]]
* [[Fatehpur district|Fatehpur]]

'''Mulkila''' is a mountain in [[India]].

==Description==
Mulkila is a {{Convert|6517|m|ft|abbr=off|adj=on}} summit in the [[Himalayas]].<ref name=peakvisor/> The glaciated mountain is situated in the state of [[Himachal Pradesh]], {{convert|155|km|mi}} north of the capital city of [[Shimla]]. Precipitation runoff from this mountain's slopes drains east to the Chandra River and west to the Bhaga River, and these two rivers ultimately converge to form the [[Chenab River]]. [[Topographic relief]] is significant as the south face rises 1,117 metres (3,665 ft) in {{convert|1|km|mi|spell=in}}. The first ascent of the summit was accomplished on September 7, 1939, by Ludwig Krenek, Robey Johnson, and Dr. Fritz Kolb.<ref name=THJ>[https://www.himalayanclub.org/hj/13/5/the-mountains-of-central-lahul/ ''The Mountains of Central Lahul''], Ludwig Krenek, The Himalayan Journal, 1946, Retrieved June 21, 2025.</ref> The first ascent by Indians was made on August 22, 1989, by Goutam Dutta and R.S.

==History==
On 5 April 1964, reformist [[Prime Minister of Bhutan|Prime Minister]] [[Jigme Dorji]] was assassinated in Phuntsholing by monarchist cadres as the king lay ill in Switzerland. The [[Dorji family]] was subsequently put under close watch.<ref name=Rahul>{{cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=oiJuAAAAMAA |title=Royal Bhutan: a political history |author=Ram Rahul |publisher=[[Vikas Publishing|Vikas]] |pages=94–95 |year=1997 |isbn=81-259-0232-5}}</ref> It was 1958 when the first one-storeyed cottage was constructed to house a shop. The late [[Prime Minister of Bhutan|Prime Minister]], [[Jigme Dorji]] informed Phuentsholing residents that concrete houses could be constructed.
Tashi group of companies constructed the first concrete house, followed by Tibetans and Indians. Some of the structures that exist to this day are the buildings housing Bhutan Enterprise, Jatan Prasad Lal Chand Prasad shop and a beauty parlour near [https://bhutanpilgrimage.com/zangdo-pelri-lhakhang-a-replica-of-guru-rinpoches-paradise-in-phuentsholing/ Zantdopelri lhakhang]. After the announcement, 18 shops were built around Zangdopelri area. The Zangdopelri area was a bus terminal, and on Saturday a market would be assembled. Apart from the cottages, there were several huts and Phuentsholing was beginning to grow.<ref>{{cite news |url=http://www.kuenselonline.com/becoming-the-gateway-to-bhutan/#.VUFk7CGqqko |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150724161505/http://www.kuenselonline.com/becoming-the-gateway-to-bhutan/#.VUFk7CGqqko |archive-date=2015-07-24 |title=Becoming the Gateway to Bhutan | KuenselOnline }}</ref>

== Architecture and culture==
The India-Bhutan border separates two different urban areas. [[Jaigaon]] across the border is larger, bustling and loud, similar to many other [[West Bengal]] centres of commerce, albeit with many Bhutanese shoppers. Phuntsholing is uniquely more urban than other Bhutanese towns as it is the Bhutan financial, industrial and trading capital. It is more orderly than its neighbour.{{cn|date=May 2024}}

==Economy==
The majority of goods traded into Bhutan transit through Phuntsholing, making the town the gateway to Bhutan for trade with India. The border with China is closed.

==Indian border crossing==
[[File:Bhutan gate in Phuentsoling 0.jpg|200px|thumb|right|The ornate border gate between Bhutan and India, seen from Bhutan]]
[[File:Bhutan gate in Phuentsholing 1.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Bhutan India
border seen from [[Jaigaon]], India]]
The border is separated by a long wall with a single Bhutanese gate. Locals can sometimes even cross without being asked for papers. Tourists from India, Bangladesh and Maldives do not need visa to enter Bhutan but have to show proof of identity such as a passport or voter ID card and apply for a permit at Phuntsholing to enter Bhutan. Other foreigners need a visa presented by a hired registered tour guide. The entry gate into the town is manned by the [[Sashastra Seema Bal]] and [[Royal Bhutan Army|Bhutanese Army]] guards. The terrain inclines soon after the gate.

==Transportation==
[[File:Bhutan highways labeled location map.png|thumb|right|300px|[[Transport in Bhutan|Highways of Bhutan]]]]

The town is connected to the rest of the major cities via national highway. The town does not have airport facilities or a railway but [[Indian Railways]] has railway stations nearby. A {{convert|20|km|0|abbr=on}} railway track has been planned from the nearest railway stone
[[Hasimara]] in North Bengal to Phuntsholing.

[[Siliguri]] is the nearest large city in India. [[New Jalpaiguri]] and [[New Alipurduar railway station|New Alipurduar]] are the nearest large railway junctions. Buses are available from the towns in North Bengal. Buses are operated by both Indian based companies and Bhutanese government. Once at Phuntsholing, the [[Lateral Road]] gives travelers access to the rest of Bhutan.

From almost anywhere in the city, one can see the road to [[Thimphu]] snaking up the hillside, and in the evening it is easy to see the headlights of distant vehicles heading towards the capital. Opposite the big ground PSA is the road that connects the rest of the cities of Bhutan. The [[Lateral Road]], Bhutan's main highway, begins in Phuntsholing and winds some {{convert|636|km|mi}}<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.google.com/maps/dir/Phuentsholing,+Bhutan/Trashigang,+Bhutan |work=[[Google Maps]] |title=Directions from Phuentsholing to Trashigang |access-date=2021-07-20}}</ref> to [[Trashigang]] in the east.

The '''1984 Sriharikota cyclone''', officially named ''Tropical Cyclone 03B'', was the worst to hit the central east coast of India in seven years. Its erratic movement along the coast of Andhra Pradesh brought intense flooding in the Indian states of [[Andhra Pradesh]] and [[Tamil Nadu]], resulting in 604 fatalities. The short-lived storm was the most powerful of the [[1984 North Indian Ocean cyclone season]].

==Background==
In 1984, the North [[Indian Ocean]] saw two uneventful cyclones prior to November 9. ''Tropical Cyclone OIA'' formed in late May, which developed over the western [[Arabian Sea]]. This storm tracked west-southwest and into the [[Gulf of Aden]]. It struck about {{cvt|65|km}} west of [[Berbera]], Somalia, where it quickly dissipated. ''Cyclone OIA'' is the first documented and one of a few tropical cyclones to transit the Gulf of Aden since space satellites began tracking in 1966.<ref name="nesdis1">{{cite web |title=Rare Tropical Cyclone in the Gulf of Aden |url=https://www.nesdis.noaa.gov/news/rare-tropical-cyclone-the-gulf-of-aden |website=[[National Environmental Satellite, Data, and Information Service]] |publisher=[[National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration]] |access-date=22 August 2022 |date=18 May 2018}}</ref> There were no casualties or damage.<ref name="84atcr">{{cite report|publisher=Joint Typhoon Warning Center|page=135, 145|title=1984 Annual Tropical Cyclone Report|access-date=22 August 2022|url= https://www.metoc.navy.mil/jtwc/products/atcr/1984atcr.pdf }}</ref>

On October 12, ''Tropical Cyclone 02B'' developed in the north-central Bay of Bengal. Due to the presence of [[Tropical Storm Susan (1984)|Tropical Storm Susan]] in the [[South China Sea]], it could not develop into a stronger storm. It followed a north–northwest path. The storm made landfall about {{cvt|19|km}} south of [[Balasore]], where it rapidly weakened and eventually dissipated. Heavy rains were reported but the storm did not cause damage.<ref name="84atcr" />

==Meteorological history==
{{storm path|03B 1984 track.png}}
''Tropical Cyclone 03B'' developed as a [[low-pressure area]] over the south-central Bay of Bengal on the morning of November 9. The storm intensified into a deep depression in the evening. It followed a west-northwestward path, becoming a tropical storm on November 10 and a cyclone on the 11th. By the evening, it had become a severe cyclonic storm. A break in the ridge brought it northward, where steering currents collapsed on 13th. The storm traveled north on the 12th, where a {{cvt|11–28|km}}-wide eye was observed via satellite. The storm maintained a mostly stationary position during the 13th. After attaining peak winds of {{cvt|100|mph}}, the cyclone looped slowly to the west and crossed [[Sriharikota]] in southern Andhra Pradesh on the 14th. It gradually dissipated on the 15th.<ref name="84atcr" /><ref name="Pandey89">{{cite journal |last1=Pandey |first1=M. K. |last2=Singh |first2=J. |last3=Sharma |first3=P.

A survivor recalled having to cling onto a tree for two days to escape the water.<ref name="Venkatramani84" />

==Response==
Six satellites were operating during the duration of the storm which provided warning to the area. This was in response to the 1977 cyclone, hence the death toll was lower this time. Many [[AIADMK]] ministers from Tamil Nadu had moved to [[New Delhi]] to attend to [[1984 Indian general election|electoral matters]] with the [[Indian National Congress|Congress]] when the cyclone struck. Officials, food and other emergency supplies were rushed to four districts, including Nellore prior to the cyclone's arrival. Rescue operstions took place as soon as the storm subsided.<ref name="Venkatramani84" /> After the disaster, [[Prime Minister of India|Prime Minister]] [[Rajiv Gandhi]] ordered an assessment team to evaluate the damage in the affected states. [[N. T. Rama Rao]] and Prime Minister Gandhi participated in an aerial survey of the area. Prime Minister Gandhi later allocated ₹[[Indian rupees|100 million]] for relief efforts.<ref name="Venkatramani84" />
