[[C. F. Thomas]], who had represented the constituency for 40 years, died in September 2020. Because of the [[COVID-19 pandemic in Kerala|COVID-19 pandemic]] and also the nearby legislative assembly elections, a by-election was not held. The [[Kerala Congress (M)]] had left the [[United Democratic Front (Kerala)|UDF]] and had joined the [[Left Democratic Front (Kerala)|LDF]]. The [[Kerala Congress (Joseph)]] tied up with the Kerala Congress led by [[P. C. Thomas]] and contested the elections as [[Kerala Congress]] for the UDF. Kerala Congress lost in eight of the ten seats they contested, including Changanassery. The incumbent seat holding Kerala Congress (M) won the seat. &lt;br /&gt;

==Synopsis==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
SANKALP is a premium Indian socio-political drama that explores how power is manufactured not through elections, but through mentorship and institutional control. Inspired by the ancient Chanakya-Chandragupta chronicles, the series reimagines political strategy for modern India, where classrooms replace battlefields and bureaucrats replace soldiers.&lt;br /&gt;

The project marks Nana Patekar&#039;s debut in the OTT space and is set against a political backdrop, with the actor playing a lawyer-turned-politician while Sanjay Kapoor portrays his close associate. The series was officially unveiled by Jio Studios on 12 April 2023 during its large content slate announcement at the Jio World Convention Centre in Mumbai.

==Reception==&lt;br /&gt;
Rahul Desai of &#039;&#039;[[The Hollywood Reporter India]]&#039;&#039; calls it a &amp;quot;A welcome return to basics,&amp;quot; and as formulaic as Sankalp is, it&#039;s one of those uncannily sketched shows that mines a long-standing culture of reverence and obligation.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|first=Rahul|last=Desai|title=‘Sankalp’ Series Review: The Grassroots Allure of Prakash Jha’s Storytelling|url=https://www.hollywoodreporterindia.com/reviews/streaming/sankalp-series-review-the-grassroots-allure-of-prakash-jhas-storytelling|date=12 March 2026|website=The Hollywood Reporter India}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Archika Khurana of &#039;&#039;[[The Times of India]]&#039;&#039; gave 3.5 stars out of 5 and said that &amp;quot;With its mix of strategy, ideology and personal conflict, Sankalp ultimately stands as a thought-provoking exploration of how power operates—not just in politics, but in the relationships that shape it.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|first=Archika|last=Khurana|title=Sankalp Season 1 Review : Nana Patekar’s commanding presence drives this layered political drama|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/web-series/reviews/hindi/sankalp/sankalp-season-1/seasonreview/129356459.cms|date=11 March 2026|website=The Times of India}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;[[Bollywood Hungama]]&#039;&#039; rated it 2.5/5 stars and writes that &amp;quot;SANKALP rests on a compelling storyline and strong performances by Nana Patekar and the other lead actors. However, the excessive length, silly goings-on and weak climax dilute the impact. Nevertheless, the show should manage to garner viewership due to its mass-appealing treatment and casting.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|title=Web Series Review: SANKALP rests on a compelling storyline and strong performances but the length, silly goings-on and weak climax dilute the impact|url=https://www.bollywoodhungama.com/news/features/web-series-review-sankalp-rests-compelling-storyline-strong-performances-length-silly-goings-weak-climax-dilute-impact/|date=11 March 2026|website=Bollywood Hungama}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
BH Harsh of &#039;&#039;[[Cinema Express]]&#039;&#039; also gave 2.5 stars out of 5 and said that &amp;quot;The Prakash Jha series has its moments, but struggles to maintain momentum with its many subplots.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|first=B H|last=Harsh|title=Sankalp Series Review: Nana Patekar’s OTT debut lacks energy and coherence|url=https://www.cinemaexpress.com/ott/review/2026/Mar/13/sankalp-series-review-nana-patekars-ott-debut-lacks-energy-and-coherence|date=13 March 2026|website=Cinema Express}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Deepa Gahlot]] of &#039;&#039;[[Rediff.com]]&#039;&#039; gave 3 stars out of 5 and noted that &amp;quot;&#039;There is a fortune in stolen money, counterfeit notes floating around, and political skullduggery afoot, along with treachery, double dealing, kidnapping and all manner of wickedness packing the series so densely that the pace never flags and a profusion of twists keeps the story engaging even when it strains credibilit.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|first=Deepa|last=Gahlot|title=Sankalp: Lethal Weapons|url=https://www.rediff.com/movies/review/sankalp-review/20260312.htm|date=12 March 2026|website=Rediff.com}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Anuj Kumar of &#039;&#039;[[The Hindu]]&#039;&#039; observed that &amp;quot;The attempt at subversive social-political inquiry into mentorship and manipulation is diminished by overwriting and tiresome visual and creative contrivances.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|first=Anuj|last=Kumar|title=‘Sankalp’ series review: Nana Patekar anchors Prakash Jha’s game of thrones|url=https://www.thehindu.com/entertainment/movies/sankalp-series-review-nana-patekar-prakash-jha-amazon-mx-player-mohammed-zeeshan-ayyub/article70734608.ece|date=12 March 2026|website=The Hindu}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Zinia Bandyopadhyay of &#039;&#039;[[Firstpost]]&#039;&#039; rated it 2.5/5 stars and said that &amp;quot;Sankalp is a show with ambition, ideas and a commanding central performance. But a sprawling narrative and uneven pacing dilute what could have been a far sharper political drama.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|first=Zinia|last=Bandyopadhyay|title=&#039;Sankalp&#039; Review: Nana Patekar holds the centre in Prakash Jha’s political chessboard that takes too long to make its move|url=https://www.firstpost.com/entertainment/sankalp-review-nana-patekar-holds-the-centre-in-prakash-jhas-political-chessboard-that-takes-too-long-to-make-its-move-13988511.html|date=12 March 2026|website=Firstpost}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;[[Free Press Journal]]&#039;&#039;&#039;s Troy Ribeiro gave 3 stars out of 5 and said that &amp;quot;Sankalp is an engaging political thriller on mentorship, power and revenge, elevated by strong performances despite occasional narrative imbalance.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|first=Troy|last=Ribeiro|title=Sankalp Review: Nana Patekar &amp;amp; Sanjay Kapoor&#039;s Tale Of Strategy, Revenge &amp;amp; Mentor&#039;s Lasting Influence|url=https://www.freepressjournal.in/entertainment/sankalp-review-nana-patekar-sanjay-kapoors-tale-of-strategy-revenge-mentors-lasting-influence|date=11 March 2026|website=Free Press Journal}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

{{History of Bengal}}&lt;br /&gt;
{{Independence of Bangladesh}}&lt;br /&gt;
The &#039;&#039;&#039;Partition of Bengal&#039;&#039;&#039; in 1947, also known as the &#039;&#039;&#039;Second Partition of Bengal&#039;&#039;&#039;, part of the [[Partition of India]], divided the [[British Raj|British Indian]] [[Bengal Presidency|Bengal Province]] along the [[Radcliffe Line]] between the [[Dominion of India]] and the [[Dominion of Pakistan]]. The [[Bengali Hindu]]-majority [[West Bengal]] became a state of [[India]], and the [[Bengali Muslim]]-majority [[East Bengal]] (now [[Bangladesh]]) became a province of [[Pakistan]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On 20 June 1947, the [[Bengal Legislative Assembly (1937—1947)|Bengal Legislative Assembly]] met to decide the future of the Bengal Province, as between being a [[United Bengal]] within India or Pakistan or divided into West Bengal and East Bengal as the homelands for the Bengali Hindus and the Bengali Muslims, respectively. At the preliminary joint session, the assembly decided by 126–90 that if it remained united, it should join the new [[Constituent Assembly of Pakistan]]. Later, a separate meeting of legislators from West Bengal decided by 58–21 that the province should be partitioned and that West Bengal should join the existing [[Constituent Assembly of India]]. In another separate meeting of legislators from East Bengal, it was decided by 106–35 that the province should not be partitioned and by 107–34 that East Bengal should join Pakistan in the event of Partition.{{sfn|Bose|1986|p=230}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On 6 July 1947, the [[1947 Sylhet referendum|Sylhet referendum]] decided to sever [[Sylhet]] from [[Assam Province|Assam]] and merge it into East Bengal in order to join [[Pakistan]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The partition, with power transferred to Pakistan and India on 14–15 August 1947, was done according to what has come to be known as the 3 June Plan, or the [[Mountbatten Plan]]. Indian independence, on 15 August 1947, ended over 150 years of British rule and influence in the [[Indian subcontinent]]. East Pakistan became the independent country of Bangladesh after the 1971 [[Bangladesh Liberation War]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Background ==&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Since 1866, there had been discussions about splitting up the [[Bengal Presidency]], which had grown too large to be administered effectively from Calcutta. This was the official reason given in 1905 for the [[Partition of Bengal (1905)|first partition of Bengal]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book |last1=Bandyopadhyay |first1=Sekhar |author-link=Sekhar Bandyopadhyay |title=From Plassey to Partition: A history of modern India |date=2004 |publisher=Orient Longman |isbn=81-250-2596-0 |pages=251–253}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; However, the geography of that partition had another, political, purpose, to weaken Bengali resistance to British rule.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book |last1=Bandyopadhyay |first1=Sekhar |author-link=Sekhar Bandyopadhyay |title=From Plassey to Partition: A history of modern India |year=2004 |publisher=Orient Longman |isbn=81-250-2596-0 |page=253}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book |last1=Schendel |first1=Willem van |title=A History of Bangladesh |year=2009 |publisher=Cambridge University Press |isbn=978-0-521-86174-8 |page=79}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book |last1=Lewis |first1=David |title=Bangladesh: politics, economics, and civil society |year=2011 |publisher=Cambridge University Press |isbn=978-0-521-88612-3 |page=54}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book |last1=Hardiman |first1=David |author1-link=David Hardiman |title=The Nonviolent Struggle for Indian Freedom, 1905-19 |year=2018 |publisher=Oxford University Press |isbn=978-0-19-092067-8 |page=23}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The partition divided the province between West Bengal, whose majority was Hindu, and East Bengal, whose majority was Muslim, but left considerable minorities of Hindus in East Bengal and Muslims in West Bengal. While the Muslims were in favour of the partition, as they would have their own province, Hindus opposed it. The controversy led to increased violence and protest, and in 1911, the provinces were again united.{{sfn|Baxter|1997|pp=39–40|ps=: &amp;quot;The new province had a Muslim majority of about three to two... The partition was widely welcomed by Muslims and sharply condemned by Hindus. Hindu opposition was expressed in many forms, ranging from boycott of British goods to revolutionary activities.... protests eventually bore fruit, and the partition was annulled in 1911.&amp;quot;}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, the disagreements between Hindus and Muslims in Bengal that had sparked the Partition of Bengal in 1905 remained, and laws, including the Second Partition of Bengal in 1947, were implemented to fulfil the political needs of the parties involved.{{citation needed|date=May 2025}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Assembly resolution about partition==&lt;br /&gt;
According to plan, on 20 June 1947, the members of the Bengal Legislative Assembly cast three separate votes on the proposal to partition Bengal:&lt;br /&gt;
* In the joint session of the house, composed of all the members of the Assembly, the division of the joint session of the House stood at 126 votes against and 90 votes for partitioning of Bengal and joining the existing Constituent Assembly (India).&lt;br /&gt;
* The members of the Muslim-majority areas of Bengal in a separate session then passed a motion by 106–35 against partitioning Bengal and instead joining a new Constituent Assembly (Pakistan) as a whole.&lt;br /&gt;
* A separate meeting of the members of the non-Muslim-majority areas of Bengal then decided 58–21 to partition the province.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Under the Mountbatten Plan, a single majority vote in favour of partition by either of the notionally divided halves of the Assembly would have decided the division of the province, and hence the proceedings on 20 June resulted in the decision to partition Bengal. That set the stage for the creation of West Bengal as a province of [[Dominion of India|India]] and East Bengal as a province of the [[Dominion of Pakistan]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Also in accordance with the Mountbatten Plan, a referendum held on 6 July saw the electorate of Sylhet vote to join East Bengal. Further, the Boundary Commission, headed by Sir [[Cyril Radcliffe]], decided on the territorial demarcation between the two newly created provinces. Power was transferred to Pakistan and India on 14 and 15 August, respectively, under the [[Indian Independence Act 1947]].&lt;br /&gt;

[[Rezaul Karim (lawyer)|Rezaul Karim]], a Bengali Muslim leader in the [[Indian National Congress]], was a champion of [[Hindu-Muslim unity]] and a [[opposition to the partition of India|united India]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Khosa2022&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; He &amp;quot;argued that the idea that Hindus and Muslims are two distinct nations was ahistorical&amp;quot; and held that outside of the subcontinent, Indian Muslims faced discrimination.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Khosa2022&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; With respect to Indian civilization, Rezaul Karim declared that &amp;quot;Its Vedas, its Upanishads, its Rama, Sita, its Ramayana, and Mahabharat, its Krishna and Gita, its Asoka and Akbar, its Kalidas and Amir Khusru, its Aurangzeb and Dara, its Rana Pratap and Sitaram—all are our own inheritance.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Khosa2022&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; In 1941, Rezaul Karim published a book &#039;&#039;Pakisthan Examined with the Partition Schemes&#039;&#039; that firmly rejected the two-nation theory and opposed the division of India.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Khosa2022&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web |last1=Salim |first1=Saquib |last2=Khosa |first2=Aasha |title=Rezaul Karim fought against the Partition of India |url=https://www.awazthevoice.in/culture-news/rezaul-karim-fought-against-the-partition-of-india-12875.html |publisher=Awaz The Voice |language=en |year=2022}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;{{unreliable source?|date=March 2024}} Karim advocated for [[composite nationalism]], with historian Neilesh Bose of the [[University of Victoria]] stating that &amp;quot;Rezaul Karim developed a Bengali Muslim composite nationalism that aimed to connect religion, region and nation in the context of a subjunctive, possible future India.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Khosa2022&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

=== United Bengal plan ===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Suhrawardy of Bengal.jpg|thumb|upright|[[H. S. Suhrawardy]], the last [[Prime Minister of Bengal]], urged a separate independent status for the whole province]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Sarat Chandra Bose.jpg|thumb|upright|[[Sarat Chandra Bose]] supported the United Bengal plan]]&lt;br /&gt;
After it became apparent that the division of India on the basis of the [[two-nation theory]] would almost certainly result in the partition of Bengal along religious lines, the Bengal provincial Muslim League leader [[Huseyn Shaheed Suhrawardy]] came up with a new plan to create an independent Bengal state, which would join neither Pakistan nor India and remain unpartitioned. Suhrawardy realised that if Bengal was partitioned, it would be economically disastrous for East Bengal,{{sfn|Tripathi|1998|p=87}} as all coal mines, all but two [[jute mill]]s, and other industrial plants would certainly go to the western part since they were in overwhelmingly Hindu areas.{{sfn|Chakrabarty|2004|p=138}} Most importantly, [[Calcutta]], the largest city in India and an industrial and commercial hub and the largest port, would also go to the western part.{{citation needed|date=March 2024}} Suhrawardy floated his idea on 27 April 1947 at a press conference in Delhi.{{sfn|Chakrabarty|2004|p=132}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Muhammad Ali Jinnah]], leader of the [[All-India Muslim League|Muslim League]], wanted an undivided Bengal outside the Dominion of India. He had told [[Louis Mountbatten|Mountbatten]] only the day before, &amp;quot;What is the use of Bengal without Calcutta; they had better remain united and independent; I am sure that they would be on friendly terms with us&amp;quot;.{{sfn|Jalal|1994|p=265}} Opinion among the Bengal provincial Muslim League leadership was divided on the question of a United Bengal. The leader [[Abul Hashim]] supported it,{{sfn|Chakrabarty|2004|p=135}} but [[Khawaja Nazimuddin]], [[Nurul Amin]] and [[Mohammad Akram Khan]] opposed it.{{sfn|Chakrabarty|2004|p=135}}{{sfn|Jalal|1994|p=266|ps=: &amp;quot;The president of the Bengal League, Maulana Akram Khan, publicly rejected any notion of a Bengali nation in which Muslims and Hindus would share power.... The speaker of the Bengal assembly, Noorul Amin, was confident that he could become the chief minister of east Bengal and so wanted partition&amp;quot;.}} Suhrawardy lobbied Jinnah on 15 May for his support. Shortly thereafter, opponents of the proposal also met with Jinnah.{{sfn|Sen|1976|pp=236–237}} In letters, he privately entertained the idea,{{sfn|Franda|1970|p=594}} but did not publicly endorse either side.{{sfn|Harun-or-Rashid|2003|p=286}}{{sfn|Shamshad|2017|p=126}} Notwithstanding his earlier comment to Mountbatten, historians are divided as to whether he supported a United Bengal outside of Pakistan, and, if so, to what degree.{{sfn|Ullah|2013|p=86}} [[Bidyut Chakrabarty]] and [[Sirajul Islam]] wrote that Jinnah consented to or defended the scheme, perhaps believing that an independent Bengal could be a first step towards an undivided Bengal within a greater Pakistan.{{sfn|Chakrabarty|2004|pp=138–139}}{{sfn|Islam|1992|pp=412, 419}} Others say he either didn&#039;t support or opposed the plan.{{sfn|McDermott|Gordon|Embree|Pritchett|2014|p=838}}{{sfn|Mahmood|1972|p=248}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the Congress, only a handful of leaders agreed to the plan, such as the influential Bengal provincial Congress leader [[Sarat Chandra Bose]], the elder brother of [[Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose|Netaji]] and [[Kiran Shankar Roy]]. However, most other leaders and Congress leaders, including [[Jawaharlal Nehru]] and [[Vallabhbhai Patel]], rejected the plan. The nationalist [[Hindu Mahasabha]], under the leadership of [[Shyama Prasad Mukherjee]], vehemently opposed it{{sfn|Chakrabarty|2004|pp=140–147}} and considered it nothing but a ploy by Suhrawardy to stop the partition of the state so that its industrial west, including the city of Kolkata, would remain under League control. It also claimed that even if the plan was for a sovereign Bengal state, it would be a virtual Pakistan, and the Hindu minority would always be at the mercy of the Muslim majority.{{sfn|Chakrabarty|2004|pp=140–147}}{{sfn|Tripathi|1998|p=86}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Although the chance of the proposal seeing light without the Congress central committee&#039;s approval was slim, Bose and Suhrawardy continued talks to reach an agreement on the political structure of the proposed state. Like Suhrawardy, Bose also felt that partition would severely hamper Bengal&#039;s economy, and almost half of the Hindus would be left stranded in [[East Bengal]].{{sfn|Chakrabarty|2004|p=142}} The agreement was published on 24 May 1947,{{sfn|Chakrabarty|2004|p=141}} but was largely political. The proposal had little support at the grassroots level, particularly among Hindus.{{sfn|Chakrabarty|2004|p=149}} The Muslim League&#039;s continuous propaganda for the two-nation theory during the past six years, as well as the marginalisation of Hindus in the Suhrawardy ministry and the [[Direct Action Day|vicious 1946 riots]], which many Hindus believed to have been sponsored by the state, left little room for trust by the Bengali Hindus.{{sfn|Tripathi|1998|pp=86, 186}} Soon, Bose and Suhrawardy were divided on the nature of the electorate: separate or joint. Suhrawardy insisted upon maintaining the separate electorates for Muslims and non-Muslims. Bose opposed the idea and withdrew. The lack of any other significant support by the Congress caused the United Bengal plan to be discarded.{{sfn|Chakrabarty|2004|p=143}} Still, the relatively unknown episode marked the last attempt among Bengali Muslim and Hindu leadership to avoid Partition and to live together.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Displacement==&lt;br /&gt;
===1946–1951===&lt;br /&gt;
Following the partition of Bengal between the Hindu-majority [[West Bengal]] and the Muslim-majority [[East Bengal]], there was an influx of [[Bengali Hindu]]/[[Bengali Muslim]] refugees from both sides. An estimation suggests that before the Partition, West Bengal had a population of 21.2 million, of whom 5.3 million, or roughly 25 percent, were Muslim minorities. Most of the Muslim population were native Bengali Muslims, whereas East Bengal had 39.1 million people, of whom 10.94 million or roughly 28 percent were Hindu minorities, i.e. predominantly native Bengali Hindus. Nearly 2.04 million Bengali Hindus left Pakistan&#039;s East Bengal for India&#039;s West Bengal region, and 1.72 million Bengali Muslims left India&#039;s West Bengal for Pakistan&#039;s East Bengal region immediately after the Partition because of violence and rioting resulting from mobs supporting West Bengal and East Bengal. However, most Muslims who left in 1947 returned soon after to India&#039;s West Bengal before [[Liaquat–Nehru Pact]], which was signed in 1950.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite thesis |last=Kamal |first=Nahid |year=2009 |title=The Population Trajectories of Bangladesh and West Bengal During the Twentieth Century: A Comparative Study |url=https://etheses.lse.ac.uk/2342/1/U615290.pdf |degree=PhD |publisher=London School of Economics}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike [[Punjab]], where a full population exchange between [[Punjabi Muslims]] and [[Punjabi Sikhs]]/[[Punjabi Hindus]] during the partition happened, the same complete population exchange did not happen in [[Bengal]] (the population transfer between Bengali Hindus and Bengali Muslims was gradually slower due to the occurrence of less violence); overall it was one-sided, i.e. most of the Bengali Hindus, mainly from upper caste left East Bengal, but most of the Bengali Muslims didn&#039;t leave West Bengal.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news |url=https://www.firstpost.com/world/nothing-new-in-persecution-of-hindus-in-bangladesh-this-time-we-are-talking-about-it-openly-and-firmly-10064361.html |title=Nothing new in persecution of Hindus in Bangladesh: This time we are talking about it openly and firmly |work=Firstpost |date=18 October 2021 |type=Opinion}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; During Partition, [[Hindu Mahasabha]] leader [[Shyama Prasad Mukherjee]] demanded a full exchange of population—an exchange of the Bengali Muslim population of West Bengal with that of Bengali Hindus of East Bengal—but it didn&#039;t happen due to the lack of interest of [[Indian National Congress|Central Government]] leaders of that time.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news |url=https://www.thedailystar.net/views/in-focus/news/calcuttas-muslims-after-partition-2961151 |title=Calcutta&#039;s Muslims after Partition |work=The Daily Star |date=14 February 2022}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news |url=https://scroll.in/article/946454/the-nehru-liaquat-pact-failed-refugees-from-bangladesh-but-so-would-the-citizenship-bill |title=The Nehru-Liaquat Pact failed refugees from Bangladesh – but so would the Citizenship Bill |work=Scroll.in |date=11 December 2019}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Presently, only 8 percent of Bangladesh (then East Bengal) is Hindu, whereas West Bengal is still 27 percent Muslim, compared to 25 percent at the time of Partition.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |url=https://www.partitionmuseum.org/partition-of-india/bengal-assam/ |title=The Partition of Bengal &amp;amp; Assam}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===1960===&lt;br /&gt;
An estimated one million Hindu refugees had entered West Bengal by 1960, and close to 700,000 Muslims left for East Pakistan. The refugee influx in Bengal was also accompanied by the fact that the government was less prepared to rehabilitate them, which resulted in huge housing and sanitation problems for the millions, most of whom were owners of large property back in East Bengal.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news |title=Voices of Partition: A Dhaka Hindu and a Kolkata Muslim recount what Independence meant to them |url=https://indianexpress.com/article/research/70-years-of-independence-india-at-70-voices-of-partition-a-dhaka-hindu-and-a-kolkata-muslim-recount-what-independence-meant-to-them-4797754/lite/ |work=The Indian Express |date=15 August 2017 |language=en |access-date=25 March 2022 |archive-date=6 October 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221006123930/https://indianexpress.com/article/research/70-years-of-independence-india-at-70-voices-of-partition-a-dhaka-hindu-and-a-kolkata-muslim-recount-what-independence-meant-to-them-4797754/lite/ |url-status=live}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===1964===&lt;br /&gt;
During the East Pakistan riot of 1964, it is estimated, according to Indian authorities, 135,000 Hindu refugees arrived in West Bengal from East Pakistan, and the Muslims started to migrate to East Pakistan from West Bengal. According to Pakistani figures, by early April, 83,000 Muslim refugees had arrived from West Bengal.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;nyt05041964&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite news |url=https://www.nytimes.com/1964/04/05/moslemhindu-violence-flares-again.html |title=Moslem-Hindu Violence Flares Again |last=Brady |first=Thomas F. |date=5 April 1964 |work=The New York Times |access-date=17 August 2014 |archive-date=19 August 2014 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140819091106/http://www.nytimes.com/1964/04/05/moslemhindu-violence-flares-again.html |url-status=live}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===1971===&lt;br /&gt;
In 1971, during the [[Bangladesh Liberation War]] against [[Pakistan]], a large group of refugees numbering an estimated 7,235,916 arrived from Bangladesh to India&#039;s West Bengal. Nearly 95% of them were Bengali Hindus, and, after the [[independence of Bangladesh]], nearly 1,521,912 Bengali Hindu refugees decided to stay in West Bengal.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |url=https://www.timesnownews.com/india/article/indira-gandhi-rahul-gandhi-rajiv-gandhi-east-pakistan-pakistan-assam-accord-national-register-of-citizens-congress-bharatiya-janata-party-tripura/264462 |title=When Indira Gandhi said: Refugees of all religions must go back – Watch video |access-date=30 December 2020 |archive-date=23 January 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210123092721/https://www.timesnownews.com/india/article/indira-gandhi-rahul-gandhi-rajiv-gandhi-east-pakistan-pakistan-assam-accord-national-register-of-citizens-congress-bharatiya-janata-party-tripura/264462 |url-status=live}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The Bangladeshi Hindus were mainly settled in the Nadia, North 24 Parganas, and South 24 Parganas districts of West Bengal after 1971.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite news |url=https://scroll.in/article/845354/why-hindu-immigrants-from-bangladesh-are-a-key-component-of-the-bjps-west-bengal-expansion-strategy |title=Why Hindu immigrants from Bangladesh are a key component of the BJP&#039;s West Bengal expansion strategy |work=Scroll.in |date=10 August 2017 |access-date=30 December 2020 |archive-date=26 February 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210226061507/https://scroll.in/article/845354/why-hindu-immigrants-from-bangladesh-are-a-key-component-of-the-bjps-west-bengal-expansion-strategy |url-status=live}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Aftermath ==&lt;br /&gt;
Before the official Radcliffe Line was drawn in 1947, these were the religious demographics in Bengal:&lt;br /&gt;
* Muslim-majority districts: Dinajpur, Rangpur, Malda, Murshidabad, Rajshahi, Bogra, Pabna, Mymensingh, Jessore, Nadia, Faridpur, Dhaka, Tippera, Bakerganj, Noakhali and Chittagong.&lt;br /&gt;
* Hindu-majority districts: Calcutta, Howrah, Hooghly, Birbhum, Burdwan, Bankura, Midnapore, Jalpaiguri, Darjeeling, 24 Pargan and Khulna&lt;br /&gt;
* Buddhist-majority district: Chittagong Hill Tract&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Final division:&lt;br /&gt;
* Pakistan: [[Dinajpur District, Bangladesh|East Dinajpur]], [[Rangpur Division|Rangpur]], Rajshahi, Bogra, Pabna, [[Mymensingh Division|Mymensingh]], [[Sylhet Division|Sylhet]] (except Karimganj), [[Khulna Division|Khulna]], [[Barisal District|Bakerganj]], [[Meghna Division|Tippera]] (plain [[Tripura]]), [[Noakhali District|Noakhali]], [[Chittagong]], [[Jessore District|Jessore]], [[Kushtia District|East Nadia]], [[Chittagong Hill Tracts]].&lt;br /&gt;
* India: [[West Dinajpur district|West Dinajpur]], [[Jalpaiguri]], [[Darjeeling]], [[Malda district|Malda]], [[Murshidabad]], [[Nadia district|West Nadia]], [[Calcutta]], 24 Pargana, Burdwan, Birbhum, [[Midnapore]], [[Howrah]], [[Hooghly district|Hooghly]] and [[Karimganj district]] in Assam.&lt;br /&gt;
The second partition of Bengal left behind a legacy of violence that has continued ever since. As [[Bashabi Fraser]] put it, &amp;quot;There is the reality of the continuous flow of &#039;economic migrants&#039;/&#039;refugees&#039;/&#039;infiltrators&#039;/&#039;illegal immigrants&#039; who cross over the border and pan out across the subcontinent, looking for work and a new home, settling in metropolitan centres as far off as Delhi and Mumbai, keeping the question of Partition alive today&amp;quot;.{{sfn|Fraser|2006|p=40}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Displacement crisis ===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Gandhi in Noakhali 1946.jpg|thumb|[[Mahatma Gandhi|Gandhi]] in Noakhali, 1946]]&lt;br /&gt;
A massive [[population transfer]] began immediately after partition. Millions of [[Hindus]] [[Human migration|migrated]] to India from East Bengal, and most of them settled in West Bengal. A significant number even went to [[Assam]], Tripura and other states. However, the refugee crisis was markedly different from [[Punjab Province (British India)|Punjab]] at India&#039;s western border. Punjab had witnessed widespread [[communal riots]] immediately before partition. As a result, the population transfer in Punjab happened almost immediately after Partition, as terrified people left their homes from both sides. Within a year, the population exchange had been largely complete between [[East Punjab|East]] and [[West Punjab]], but in Bengal, violence was limited to [[Direct Action Day|Kolkata]] and [[Noakhali genocide|Noakhali]]. Hence, in Bengal, the migration occurred much more gradually and continued over the three decades after partition.{{sfn|Chatterji|2007|p=111}}&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Hindu&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; Although riots were limited in [[Bengal Presidency|pre-independence Bengal]], the environment was communally charged. Both Hindus in East Bengal and Muslims in West Bengal felt unsafe and had to take a crucial decision on whether to leave for an uncertain future in another country or to stay in subjugation under the other community.{{sfn|Chatterji|2007|pp=107–108, 110–111}} Among Hindus in East Bengal, those who were better placed economically left first. Government employees were given a chance to swap their posts between India and Pakistan. The educated urban upper and middle classes, the rural gentry, traders, businessmen and artisans left for India soon after partition. They often had relatives and other connections in West Bengal and settled with less difficulty. Muslims followed a similar pattern. The urban and educated [[upper class|upper]] and middle classes left for East Bengal first.{{sfn|Chatterji|2007|pp=115, 168-169}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, poorer Hindus in East Bengal, most of whom are Dalits found it much more difficult to migrate. Their only property was immovable land holdings. Many [[sharecropping|sharecroppers]] had no skills other than farming. As a result, most of them decided to stay in East Bengal. However, the political climate in Pakistan deteriorated soon after partition, and communal violence started to rise. In 1950, [[1950 East Pakistan genocide|severe riots occurred]] in [[Barisal]] and other places in East Pakistan, causing a further exodus of Hindus. The situation was vividly described by [[Jogendra Nath Mandal]]&#039;s [[s:Resignation letter of Jogendra Nath Mandal|resignation letter]] to [[Pakistani Prime Minister]] [[Liaquat Ali Khan]]. Mandal was a dalit leader and despite being of a depressed class, he supported the Muslim League as a protest to the subjugation of lower-castes by their higher-caste coreligionists.{{sfn|Chakrabarty|2004|p=113}} He fled to India and resigned from his cabinet minister&#039;s post. For the next two decades, Hindus left East Bengal whenever communal tensions flared up or the relationship between India and Pakistan deteriorated, [[1964 East Pakistan genocide|as in 1964]]. The situation of the Hindu minority in East Bengal reached its worst in the months preceding and during the [[Bangladesh Liberation War|Bangladesh Liberation War of 1971]], when the [[Pakistani Army]] systematically targeted ethnic Bengalis, regardless of religious background, as part of [[Operation Searchlight]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In independent Bangladesh, state-sponsored discrimination of Hindus largely stopped. However, like India, the two communities&#039; relationship remains tense and occasional communal violence occurred, such as in the aftermath of [[Babri Mosque]] [[Demolition of Babri Masjid|demolition]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Though Muslims in post-independence West Bengal faced some discrimination{{Citation needed|date=February 2014}}, it was unlike the [[state-sponsored racism|state-sponsored discrimination]] faced by the Hindus in East Bengal. Most Hindus fled from East Bengal, but Muslims largely stayed on in West Bengal. Over the years, however, the community became ghettoised and was socially and economically segregated from the majority community.{{sfn|Chatterji|2007|p=181}} West Bengali Muslims are highly marginalised, as can be seen from social indicators like [[literacy]] and per capita income.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite report |url=http://iamc.com/reports/2006/pmhlc.muslims.pdf |author=Rajinder Sachar |title=Sachar Committee Report |year=2006 |access-date=4 April 2012 |archive-date=14 January 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150114183503/http://iamc.com/reports/2006/pmhlc.muslims.pdf |url-status=dead}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Apart from West Bengal, thousands of [[Bihari Muslims]] also settled in East Bengal. They had suffered terribly in [[Direct Action Day#Bihar and rest of India|severe riots]] before partition. However, they supported [[West Pakistan]] during the Liberation War and were subsequently denied citizenship in independent Bangladesh. Most of the Bihari refugees [[Stranded Pakistanis|have remained stateless]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Statistics ====&lt;br /&gt;
The 1951 census in India recorded 2.523 million refugees from East Bengal, 2.061 million of whom settled in West Bengal. The rest went to Assam, Tripura and other states.{{sfn|Hill|Seltzer|Leaning|Malik|2005|p=13}} By 1973, their number reached over 6 million. The following table shows the major waves of refugee influx and the incident that caused it.{{sfn|Chatterji|2007|p=112}}{{refn|group=note|During the Bangladesh Liberation War, 11 million people from both communities took shelter in India.

&lt;br /&gt;
The 1951 census in Pakistan recorded 671,000 refugees in East Bengal, the majority of whom came from West Bengal. The rest were from [[Bihar]].{{sfn|Hill|Seltzer|Leaning|Malik|2005|p=13}} By 1961, the numbers reached 850,000. Crude estimates suggest that about 1.5 million Muslims migrated from West Bengal and Bihar to East Bengal in the two decades after partition.{{sfn|Chatterji|2007|p=166}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Government response ====&lt;br /&gt;
In Punjab, the Indian government anticipated a population transfer and was ready to take proactive measures. Land plots that were evacuated by Muslims were allotted to incoming Hindu and Sikh refugees.{{citation needed|date=June 2018}} The government allocated substantial resources for the rehabilitation of refugees in Punjab. In contrast, there was no such planning in the eastern part of the country. Neither the central nor the West Bengal state governments anticipated any large-scale population exchange, and no co-ordinated policy was in place to rehabilitate millions of homeless people. The newly independent country had few resources, and the central government was exhausted in resettling 7 million refugees in Punjab. Instead of providing rehabilitation, the Indian government tried to stop and even to reverse the refugee influx from East Bengal. India and Pakistan signed the [[Liaquat–Nehru Pact]] in 1950 to stop any further population exchange between West and East Bengal.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Hindu&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;{{sfn|Chatterji|2007|pp=128–130}} Even after it became clear that refugees were determined not to be sent back, the central government failed to provide any significant assistance.{{sfn|Chatterji|2007|p=128}} The government policy of East Bengal refugee rehabilitation mostly consisted of sending them to empty areas, mostly outside of West Bengal. One of the most controversial schemes was the government&#039;s decision to settle the refugees by force in [[Dandakaranya]], a barren plot of land in [[Chhattisgarh|Central India]].{{sfn|Chatterji|2007|pp=135–136}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Social impact ====&lt;br /&gt;
Without the government&#039;s assistance, the refugees often settled themselves. Some found jobs in factories. Many took small businesses and [[hawker (trade)|hawking]]. Numerous refugee colonies sprang up in [[Nadia district|Nadia]], [[North 24 Parganas district|24 Paraganas]] and [[Kolkata]]&#039;s suburbs. It has been argued recently that the refugees facilitated an incremental urbanization without accumulation, in the frontiers of Calcutta. The process has been termed as &#039;urbanization with de-accumulation&#039;.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book |last1=Bandyopadhyay |first1=Ritajyoti |title=Streets in Motion: The Making of Infrastructure, Property, and Political Culture in Twentieth-century Calcutta |year=2022 |publisher=Cambridge University Press |isbn=978-1-009-10920-8 |url=https://www.cambridge.org/core/books/streets-in-motion/2D42F4BF0D2086A1DBB254A5120ACB42 |access-date=3 July 2022}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Tripura&#039;s tribal insurgency ====&lt;br /&gt;
{{Main|Insurgency in Northeast India#Tripura}}&lt;br /&gt;
The [[Twipra Kingdom#British Era|princely state of Tripura]] had a predominantly-tribal population, but educated Bengalis were welcomed by the King and were prominent in the state&#039;s administration in pre-independence India. However, after partition, thousands of Bengali Hindus migrated to Tripura, which changed the state&#039;s [[demography]] significantly. Tripura&#039;s tribes became a minority in their own [[homeland]] and lost their land holdings. As a result, a tribal [[insurgency]] began, causing violent riots among tribes and Bengalis in 1980. A low-scale insurgency has continued ever since.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Manorama Yearbook 1998&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Many Bengalis migrated from East Bengal region during Partition and the Liberation War, but half of the Bengali community of Tripura has lived in Tripura for hundreds of years, according to the 1901 census report, which clearly stated that Bengali and Tripura had numbers that were almost equal.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Economic impact ===&lt;br /&gt;
==== West Bengal ====&lt;br /&gt;
[[Radcliffe Line|Radcliffe&#039;s line]] split Bengal, which [[History of Bengal|had always historically been]] a single economic, cultural and ethnic (Bengali-Hindu or Bengali-Muslim) zone, into two halves. Both halves were intricately connected. The [[Ganges Delta|fertile East]] produced food and raw materials, which the West consumed, and the industrialised West produced manufactured goods, which were consumed by the East. According to the POV, this was either considered an exploitative or a mutually beneficial trade and exchange. This was, naturally, severely disrupted by Partition. Rail, road and water communication routes were severed between them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After Partition, West Bengal suffered from a substantial food shortage as the fertile [[rice paddy|rice-producing]] districts went to East Bengal. The shortage continued into the 1950s and the 1960s. By 1959, West Bengal faced an annual food shortage of 950,000 tones. Hunger marches became a common sight in Kolkata.{{sfn|Chatterji|2007|pp=244–245}}&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Prafullachandra Ghosh &amp;amp; Msd Ali at Writers&#039; Building in 1947.jpg|thumb|[[Prafulla Chandra Ghosh]] (left), the first chief minister of West Bengal, with [[Mohammad Ali of Bogra]]]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[Jute]] was the largest industry in Bengal at Partition. The Radcliffe Line left every single jute mill in West Bengal but four fifths of the jute-producing land in East Bengal. The [[Jute#Tossa jute (Corchorus olitorius)|best-quality fibre yielding breeds]] of jute were [[jute cultivation|cultivated]] mostly in East Bengal. India and Pakistan initially agreed to a [[trade agreement]] to import raw jute from East Bengal for West Bengal&#039;s mills. However, Pakistan had plans to set up its own mills and put restrictions on raw jute export to India. West Bengal&#039;s mills faced an acute shortage, and the industry faced a crisis.{{sfn|Chatterji|2007|p=240}} On the other hand, jute farmers in East Bengal were now without a market to sell their produce. Exporting jute to West Bengal suddenly became an anti-national act for Pakistan. Smuggling of raw jute shot up across the border,{{sfn|Schendel|2005|pp=158–159}} but West Bengal rapidly increased jute production and in the mid-to-late 1950s became largely self-sufficient in jute.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;faostat.fao.org&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite web |url=http://faostat.fao.org/site/567/DesktopDefault.aspx?PageID=567#ancor |title=Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations |access-date=26 March 2011 |archive-date=19 June 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120619130038/http://faostat.fao.org/site/567/DesktopDefault.aspx?PageID=567#ancor |url-status=live}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; West Bengal&#039;s mills became less dependent on East Bengal for raw materials. Pakistan also set up new [[Adamjee Jute Mills|factories]] to process its local produce instead of exporting to India.{{sfn|Schendel|2005|p=159}} The following table shows jute production details in both countries in 1961:&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;faostat.fao.org&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

West Bengal&#039;s [[paper mill|paper]] and [[tannery (facility)|leather industry]] faced similar problems. The paper mills used East Bengal&#039;s [[bamboo]], and the tanneries consumed leather, which was also mainly produced in East Bengal. Like jute, the lack of raw materials pushed both industries into decline.{{sfn|Chatterji|2007|pp=241–242}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The pressure of millions of refugees, food shortages and [[deindustrialization|industrial decline]] after independence put West Bengal in a severe crisis.{{sfn|Chatterji|2007|p=251}} [[Bidhan Chandra Roy|Dr. B. C. Roy]]&#039;s government tried to cope with the situation by initiating several projects. The government built [[Irrigation|irrigation schemes]] such as the [[Mayurakshi River|Mayurakshi]] project and undertook construction of the [[Durgapur Steel Plant]], but they failed to arrest West Bengal&#039;s decline.{{sfn|Chatterji|2007|pp=255–256}} Poverty rose, and West Bengal lost its top place and lagged well behind other Indian states in industrial development. Massive political unrest, strikes and violence crippled the state for the three decades after Partition.{{sfn|Chatterji|2007|pp=238–239, 296, 313}}&lt;br /&gt;

==== North East India ====&lt;br /&gt;
Rail and road links connecting [[North East India]] to the rest of the country passed through East Bengal territory. The lines connecting [[Siliguri]] in [[North Bengal]] to Kolkata and Assam to [[Chittagong]] were severed. The whole [[Bengal Assam Railway|Assam Railway]] was cut off from the rest of the [[Indian Railways|Indian system]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;History of Indian railways&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite web |url=https://www.irfca.org/faq/faq-history4.html |title=History of Indian railways |access-date=26 March 2011 |archive-date=21 June 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190621083001/https://irfca.org/faq/faq-history4.html |url-status=live}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Those lines carried almost all [[freight]] traffic from those regions. The most important commodities were tea and timber. The [[Assam tea|tea industry in Assam]] depended on the [[Chittagong Port]] to export its produce and import raw materials for the industry, such as coal, which was used as the fuel to [[tea processing|dry]] the [[tea leaves]]. The industry was severely hit, as Chittagong went to Pakistan. Initially, India and Pakistan reached an agreement to allow cross-border transit traffic, but India now had to pay a [[tariff]]. By 1950, India had reconnected Assam to the rest of the country&#039;s rail network by building a 229&amp;amp;nbsp;km [[meter gauge]] rail link through the [[Siliguri Corridor]],&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;History of Indian railways&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; but now the Tea chests from Assam&#039;s [[tea garden (cultivation)|gardens]] would have to be carried over a much longer distance to reach the [[Port of Kolkata]]. Exporting tea via the nearby Chittagong port was still an option, but after the [[Indo-Pakistani War of 1965]], all transit traffic was switched off by Pakistan.{{sfn|Schendel|2005|p=150}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
East Pakistan became independent Bangladesh in 1971, but cross-border railway traffic did not resume until 2003. By the 1990s, India upgraded the Assam rail link to {{Track gauge|5ft6in|lk=on}} [[broad gauge]] up to [[Dibrugarh]], thereby easing the traffic problem in the [[Brahmaputra Valley]] region, but the southern section of the area, which comprises Tripura, [[Mizoram]], Manipur and [[Barak valley]] of Assam, still faces serious [[transport|connectivity]] problems. Talks between both countries are underway to allow transit traffic between the area and Mainland India through Bangladesh. In 2023, a new cross-border rail line through Bangladesh connecting Tripura to Kolkata was established, with the aim of reducing travel time to 12 hours.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite news |title=Explained: How New India-Bangladesh Rail Link Will Bring Northeast Closer |url=https://www.ndtv.com/india-news/explained-how-new-india-bangladesh-rail-link-will-bring-northeast-closer-4534257#:~:text=New%20Delhi%3A%20Bangladesh%20and%20India%20have%20established%20a,for%20example%2C%20Kolkata%20and%20Agartala%20and%20improve%20trade. |work=NDTV News}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

==== East Bengal ====&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Khawaja Nazimuddin of Pakistan.JPG|thumb|upright|[[Sir Khawaja Nazimuddin]], the first chief minister of East Bengal]]&lt;br /&gt;
At Partition, East Bengal had no large industry. There were few mineral resources in this region. Its economy was completely agrarian. The main produce was food grains and other crops, jute, bamboo, leather and [[fishery|fish]]. The raw materials were consumed by factories in and around Kolkata. Kolkata was the centre of Bengal&#039;s economic and social development for both Hindus and Muslims. All large industries, military bases and government offices, and most of the institutions of higher education were in Kolkata.{{citation needed|date=October 2017}} Without Kolkata, East Bengal was decapitated.{{sfn|Jalal|1994|p=3|ps=: &amp;quot;Stripped of Calcutta and western Bengal, eastern Bengal was reduced to the status of an over-populated rural slum.&amp;quot;}} It lost its traditional market for agricultural products. It also lost Kolkata, the most important port of the country. East Bengal had to begin from nothing. [[Dhaka]] was then only a district headquarters. Government offices had to be placed inside makeshift buildings. Dhaka also faced a severe human resource crisis. The majority of high-ranking officers in British Indian administration were Hindu and migrated to West Bengal. Often, the posts had to be filled up by West Pakistani officers. Desperately poor, East Bengal soon became politically dominated by West Pakistan. Economic disparities and subjugation of Bengalis by the [[Punjabi people|Punjabi]] elite eventually led to a struggle for separation in 1971.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== In popular culture ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;[[Chinnamul]]&#039;&#039; (The Uprooted), a 1950 [[Bengali language|Bengali]] film directed by [[Nemai Ghosh (director)|Nemai Ghosh]], first dealt with the theme of the partition of Bengal. This was followed by [[Ritwik Ghatak]]&#039;s trilogy, &#039;&#039;[[Meghe Dhaka Tara (1960 film)|Meghe Dhaka Tara]]&#039;&#039; (Cloud-covered Stars) (1960), &#039;&#039;[[Komal Gandhar]]&#039;&#039; (1961), and &#039;&#039;[[Subarnarekha (film)|Subarnarekha]]&#039;&#039; (1962), all dealing with the aftermath of the partition.{{sfn|Roy|Bhatia|2008|pp=66–68}} [[Deepa Mehta]]&#039;s (2012) film adaptation of [[Salman Rushdie]]&#039;s (1981) novel [[Midnight&#039;s Children (film)|Midnight&#039;s Children]] captures the uncertainty of partition in both the Punjab and Bengal context, subsequent violence, the transition of independent India and Pakistan stripped of British rule, and the [[Bangladesh Liberation War|liberation of Bangladesh]] in 1971 from [[West Pakistan]]. The film &#039;&#039;[[Rajkahini]]&#039;&#039; (2015), directed by [[Srijit Mukherji]] is based on the theme of the partition of Bengal in 1947. [[Tanvir Mokammel]]&#039;s (2017) documentary Seemantorekha (The Borderline) &amp;quot;documents the journey of four individuals to their erstwhile homes in Bangladesh and West Bengal&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite journal |last=Mukhopadhyay |first=Sumallya |year=2021 |title=Memories of the 1947 Bengal Partition and Its Aftermath: Tanvir Mokammel&#039;s Seemantorekha |journal=Studies in People&#039;s History |volume=8 |issue=1 |pages=135–146 |doi=10.1177/2348448921999039 |s2cid=235337005 |doi-access=free}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are other contemporary films as well that capture the aftermath of partition, however, mostly set in the context of Punjab and other parts of the subcontinent. Notably, [[Chandraprakash Dwivedi]]&#039;s (2003) period drama titled [[Pinjar (film)|Pinjar]], based on the [[Pinjar (novel)|Punjabi novel of the same name]] by [[Amrita Pritam]], portrays the horrors of partition, communal violence, and the predicament of women during the years preceding and succeeding 1947. The film &#039;&#039;[[Manto (2018 film)|Manto]]&#039;&#039; (2018), directed by [[Nandita Das]] on the life of the Urdu writer [[Saadat Hasan Manto]] portrayed the impact of partition, mass displacement, and communal violence in the northern and western parts of the Indian subcontinent. The web series [[Jubilee (TV series)|Jubliee]] (2023), created by [[Vikramaditya Motwane]] and [[Soumik Sen]], featuring [[Prosenjit Chatterjee]], [[Aparshakti Khurana|Aparshakti Kurana]], and [[Aditi Rao Hydari]] depicted the partition of India and its impact on cities like Lucknow and Bombay with communal riots and mass frenzy.&lt;br /&gt;

==History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== European ===&lt;br /&gt;
In 1760, Louis Berger started a [[dye]] and [[pigment]] manufacturing business in [[England]], which later changed to Louis Berger &amp;amp; Sons Limited. In 1770, Louis Steigenberger shifted from [[Frankfurt]] to [[London]] to sell a [[Prussian blue]] colour, which was made using his own formula. He perfected this process &amp;amp; art of the blue colour, which was the colour of most military uniforms of that time. He then changed his name to Lewis Berger. By 1870, Berger Paints was selling 19 different pigments such as black lead, sulphur, sealing wax and mustard. After his death, his sons took over the business.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:0&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite web |title=Berger Paints Pakistan Limited |url=https://dps.psx.com.pk/company/BERG}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite web |last=Hussain |first=Dilawar |date=2016-09-26 |title=Painting the future bright |url=http://www.dawn.com/news/1286041 |access-date=2022-04-02 |website=DAWN.COM |language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:4&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite web |title=Berger Paints India Limited |url=https://www.bergerpaints.com/about-us/history-milestones.html}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:5&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite web |date=2021-04-26 |title=History and Milestones - Berger Paints Bangladesh |url=https://www.bergerbd.com/history-and-milestones/ |access-date=2022-04-02 |language=en-US}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:6&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite web |title=Berger Paints Bangladesh Limited |url=https://www.linkedin.com/company/berger-paints-bangladesh-limited/about/}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; In the UK, the company, which by then was known as Berger, Jenson and Nicholson, was acquired by [[Hoechst AG]] in 1970 and by [[Williams Holdings]] in 1988.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |title=Berger, Jenson and Nicholson, Paint Makers Records |url=https://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/r/19b53177-a2de-4e6e-af52-3e87870d6deb|publisher=National Archives|access-date=23 March 2024}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Mahisasan&#039;&#039;&#039;  is a border railway station and a defunct railway transit facility point on the India–[[Bangladesh]] border in [[Karimganj district]] in the Indian state of [[Assam]]. The corresponding station on the Bangladesh side is Shahbajpur (also known as Latu) in [[Sylhet District]]. The border station is linked to [[Karimganj]] {{convert|11|km}} away. The Mahisasan–Shahbajpur route has not been operational since December 1996 due to lack of traffic.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web| url =http://pib.nic.in/newsite/erelease.aspx?relid=31026 |title = Rail Link with Bangladesh| publisher= Press Information Bureau, Government of India|date=7 September 2007| access-date = 2011-12-22 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==History==&lt;br /&gt;
In response to the demand of the Assam tea planters for a railway link to [[Port of Chittagong|Chittagong port]], [[Assam Bengal Railway]] started construction of a railway track on the eastern side of [[Bengal]] in 1891. A {{convert|150|km}} track between Chittagong and Comilla was opened to traffic in 1895. The Comilla–Akhaura–Kulaura–Badarpur section was opened in 1896–1898 and finally extended to {{stnlnk|Lumding}} in 1903.&amp;lt;ref name=banglapaedia &amp;gt;{{cite book |last=Fida |first=Quazi Abul |year=2012 |chapter=Railway |chapter-url=http://en.banglapedia.org/index.php?title=Railway |editor1-last=Islam |editor1-first=Sirajul |editor1-link=Sirajul Islam |editor2-last=Jamal |editor2-first=Ahmed A. |title=Banglapedia: National Encyclopedia of Bangladesh |edition=Second |publisher=[[Asiatic Society of Bangladesh]]}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web| url = https://books.google.com/books?id=pL_GfLfK3lYC&amp;amp;pg=PA46 |title = Report on the administration of North East India (1921-22) |work= p. 46|year = 1984 | via=Google Books|publisher= Mittal Publishers Distributors | access-date = 2011-12-16 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book| url = https://books.google.com/books?id=7OsLGZKYP5MC&amp;amp;pg=PA105 |title = Socio Economic and Political Problems of Tea Garden Workers: A Study of Assam|publication-date=2006|isbn= 81-8324-098-4|page=105 | author1= S.N.

With the partition of India in 1947, it assumed importance as a border station.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Broad gauge==&lt;br /&gt;
The [[Railway Budget]] for 2011–12 has approved the conversion of the metre-gauge Karimganj-Mahisasan section to broad gauge. Now this a broad-gauge single-track non-electrified line. Currently 2 passenger trains are running in this line from Silchar, [[Maishashan–Silchar Passenger]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Metre gauge===&lt;br /&gt;
Earlier it was functioning as a metre-gauge railway station, but after 2015, it was upgraded to BG.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Trans-Asian Railway==&lt;br /&gt;
Currently, all freight traffic originating from Asia destined for Europe goes by sea. The [[Trans-Asian Railway]] will enable containers from Singapore, China, Vietnam, Cambodia, India, Bangladesh, Myanmar, Thailand and Korea to travel over land by train to Europe. The Southern Corridor of the Trans-Asian Railway is of prime interest to India. It connects [[Yunnan]] in China and [[Thailand]] with Europe via Turkey and passes through India.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web| url = http://streamlinesupplychain.wordpress.com/2007/12/27/trans-asian-railways-tar/|title = Trans-Asian Railway| publisher= Streamline Supply Chain| access-date = 2011-12-22 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There is a general understanding between India and Myanmar that their railways will be interconnected via a 346-km line section that will extend from [[Kalay]] in Myanmar to [[Jiribam]] in India via the border point at [[Tamu, Myanmar|Tamu]] / [[Moreh, India|Moreh]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.unescap.org/ttdw/common/TIS/TAR/text/tar_priority.pdf |title=Priority Investment Needs for the development of the Trans-Asian Railway Network |publisher=Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific |access-date=2011-12-26 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120120222326/http://www.unescap.org/ttdw/common/TIS/TAR/text/tar_priority.pdf |archive-date=20 January 2012 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The proposed route will enter India through [[Tamu, Burma|Tamu]] and Moreh in [[Manipur]] bordering [[Myanmar]], then enter [[Bangladesh]] through  Mahisasan and Shahbajpur and again enter India from Bangladesh at [[Gede, Nadia|Gede]]. On the western side, the line will enter Pakistan at [[Attari]]. There is a {{convert|315|km|adj=on}} missing link on this route in the India–Myanmar sector; of this, {{convert|180|km}}, in India, is between [[Jiribam]]  in Manipur and Tamu in Myanmar. The rail link between Jiribam and [[Imphal]] has been sanctioned by Indian Railways, but that is unlikely to be completed before 2016. At present construction work is in progress in a {{convert|97|km}} stretch between Jiribam and Tupul.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web| url = http://www.lawrkhawm.com/index.php?page=475 |title = Agreement on Trans-Asian railway passing through Manipur signed| publisher= Larkhawm | access-date = 2011-12-22 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web| url = http://hindu.com/2007/07/01/stories/2007070150650900.htm | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20070812093328/http://www.hindu.com/2007/07/01/stories/2007070150650900.htm | url-status = dead | archive-date = 12 August 2007 |title   =India signs accord on trans-Asian railway network |date=1 July 2007| work = [[The Hindu]] |  access-date = 2011-12-22 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web| url = http://www.thefinancialexpress-bd.com/more.php?news_id=129648&amp;amp;date=2011-03-18 |title = B&#039;desh segment of TAR route preparation shows progress | work= Financial Express|date=18 March 2011| access-date = 2011-12-22 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web| url = http://www.telegraphindia.com/1110226/jsp/frontpage/story_13637652.jsp | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20110301105820/http://www.telegraphindia.com/1110226/jsp/frontpage/story_13637652.jsp | url-status = dead | archive-date = 1 March 2011 |title = Manipur gets rail gift for Trinamul bypoll win – Tall promises of connecting all capitals of region leaves Northeast industry captains unimpressed | work= The Telegraph|date=26 February 2011 | access-date = 2011-12-22 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

== Early life and education ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Career==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 1866, Deen Dayal entered government service as head estimator and draughtsman in the Department of Works Secretariat Office in [[Indore]].{{sfn|Thomas|1981|p=24}} Meanwhile, he took up photography. His first patron in Indore was [[Tukojirao Holkar II|Maharaja Tukoji Rao II]] of [[House of Holkar|Indore state]], who in turn introduced him to Sir [[Henry Daly]], agent to the [[Governor-General of India|Governor General]] for [[Central India]] (1871–1881) and the founder of [[Daly College]], who encouraged his work, along with the Maharaja himself who encouraged him to set up his studio in Indore. Soon he was getting commissions from Maharajas and the British Raj.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;raj&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; The following year he was commissioned to photograph the Governor-General&#039;s tour of Central India.{{sfn|Johnson|1990}} In 1868, Deen Dayal founded his studio – Lala Deen Dayal &amp;amp; Sons – and was subsequently commissioned to photograph temples and palaces of India.{{sfn|Johnson|1990}} He established studios in Indore (Mid 1870s), Secunderabad (1886) and Bombay (1896).&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web|url=http://www.laladeendayal.in/Biography.html|title=HOME :: Raja Lala Deen Dayal|website=www.laladeendayal.in|access-date=2019-06-02}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 1875–76, Deen Dayal photographed the Royal Tour of the [[Edward VII of the United Kingdom|Prince]] and [[Alexandra of Denmark|Princess of Wales]].{{sfn|Thomas|1981|p=24}} In the early 1880s he travelled with [[Sir Lepel Griffin]] through [[Bundelkhand]], photographing the ancient architecture of the region.{{sfn|Thomas|1981|p=39}} Griffin commissioned him to do archaeological photographs: The result was a portfolio of 86 photographs, known as &amp;quot;Famous Monuments of Central India&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;din&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite news|url=http://www.hindu.com/mag/2010/11/28/stories/2010112850240500.htm|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101205134303/http://www.hindu.com/mag/2010/11/28/stories/2010112850240500.htm|url-status=dead|archive-date=5 December 2010|work=[[The Hindu]]|title=Vignettes of a splendorous era|date=28 November 2010}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Soon afterward he moved from Indore to [[Hyderabad State|Hyderabad]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;din&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; In the same year he was appointed as the photographer to the [[Viceroy of India]].{{sfn|Thomas|1981|p=40}} In time, the Nizam of Hyderabad conferred the honorary title of &#039;&#039;[[Raja]]&#039;&#039; upon him. It was at this time that Dayal created the firm Raja Deen Dayal &amp;amp; Sons in Hyderabad.{{sfn|Thomas|1981|p=40}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Raja Deen Dayal was appointed photographer to [[Queen Victoria]] in 1897.{{sfn|Thomas|1981|p=40}}&lt;br /&gt;

== Plot ==&lt;br /&gt;

Instead of supporting his daughter, her father sends her away to their ancestral home in a remote village to live with her grandmother. Isolated and dejected, Sanju is unable to cope up with the village life where she encounters an imbecile house guest, Jonga, with whom she has a rough start. As time passes, however, she finds solace in his company and with him hatches a plan to raise just enough money to escape from the village and return to her home in the city. Meanwhile, Sanju gradually begins to understand her grandmother&#039;s pain of living a secluded life and they bond over being ostracised by the man who failed to be a good son and father at the same time.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The &#039;&#039;&#039;Naga Students&#039; Union, Delhi&#039;&#039;&#039; (&#039;&#039;&#039;NSUD&#039;&#039;&#039;) is the apex student body of the [[Naga people|Nagas]] living in [[Delhi]]. With over 40,000 members spread across the National Capital Region (NCR), it is one of the biggest students’ organisations in Delhi.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==History==&lt;br /&gt;
In the early 1960s, while Nagalim was in the turmoil of the political conflict, and the Nagas were divided into different administrative units, the 8 earliest Naga students in Delhi came together to consolidate themselves into a Union with the sense of reinforcing oneness among the Nagas at all fronts. Under the auspices of Dr. S. T. Toshi and Mr Yehike Sema, a meeting was convened on 25 August 1963 and unanimously elected Dr Aryo Shishak and Mr Khyomo Lotha as the [[President (corporate title)|President]] and [[General Secretary]] respectively. In due course of time, the constitution was drafted, adopted and came into force with the motto &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;&#039;Strength in Unity&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;quot; aimed at promoting the general welfare of the Nagas and the Naga students of Delhi in particular.{{fact|date=December 2022}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With the gradual growth of members and finance, the NSUD diversified its role into many areas. Apart from its regular undertakings of conducting Admission Assistance for the freshers, organising Freshers’ social functions and annual sports meets, the union also commenced various literary and cultural programs. As the pivot of the Naga community’s initiative in Delhi, the union also played vital role in the formation of other organisations for the Nagas. As early as 1966, the NSUD helped in reviving the then defunct Naga Students Federation (NSF). Besides, the Union prides for its service in establishing the Naga Christian Fellowship (NCF) in 1975, and forming the [[Naga People&#039;s Movement for Human Rights]] (NPMHR) in 1978.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[http://www.nagalandpost.com/channelnews/State/StateNews.aspx?news=TkVXUzEwMDAyNDA5MA%3D%3D-oALAX40bjvQ%3D Naga Peoples’ Movement for Human Rights (NPMHR) Naga unity call on 34th foundation day]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Membership==&lt;br /&gt;
In the first year, 15 members registered with the union. By the turn of the 1970, the number of members in the Union crossed half a century mark. In the 25th year of the Union, the union recorded more than 300 registered members. However, in the 1990s, the Union experienced a rapid rise of members consequent by the economic liberalisation in leading to the growth of umpteenth educational institutions in Delhi attracting thousands of Naga students seeking higher education. At the turn of the 21st century, the population of the Nagas in Delhi has risen into thousand folds, including both working professionals and students. At the time of the Golden Jubilee Celebration, there were more than 20,000 Nagas living in Delhi including working households, job seekers and students.{{fact|date=December 2022}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Educational Initiative and Publication==&lt;br /&gt;
The effort to promote education awareness and impart knowledge capacity to the Nagas have been the primary focus of the Union. From its formative stage till date, the NSUD has been giving admission information and assistance to freshers,&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[https://web.archive.org/web/20140610024724/http://www.hindustantimes.com/india-news/as-du-admissions-begin-organisations-offer-help-to-ne-students/article1-1227523.aspx As DU admissions begin, organisations offer help to NE students]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; besides occasionally conducting seminars and literary meets. The Union has published several newsletters, magazines and had published two books – Nagas at Work in 1996,&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite journal | url=https://www.jstor.org/stable/41919796 | jstor=41919796 | last1=Kawatra | first1=Anjali | title=Reviewed work: Nagas at work, R. Vashum, Aleube Iheilung, Nehemiah Panmei, Lanu Longkumer | journal=Indian Anthropologist | date=1996 | volume=26 | issue=1 | pages=81–84 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; and Nagas Today in 2010.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Political activism==&lt;br /&gt;
Since its inception, the NSUD has always remained vigilant to all the unfolding of political situations affecting the Nagas, and accordingly made innumerable interventions on its capacity by staging protest,&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[http://northeastmirror.com/index.php/north-east-india-state-news/625-ukhrul-unrest-nsud-s-protest-rally-at-jantar-mantar UKHRUL UNREST: NSUD&#039;s Protest Rally at Jantar Mantar]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; sensitising and mobilising the public, organising seminars on the political issues and human rights, and sending representations to the Indian leadership to impress upon with the desire of the Nagas.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Structure==&lt;br /&gt;
The NSUD has come a long way and gained a stature considerably both in numbers and activities and the Union has changed and restructured according to the needs and has functioned under different working systems since its inception, viz.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* 2 January 1965 to 3 September 1994 – [[Unitary state|Unitary]] Structure&lt;br /&gt;
* September 1994 to 1 February 2003 – Quasi-Unitary Structure&lt;br /&gt;
* 1 February 2003 – till date – [[Federation|Federal]] structure&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Unit Under NSUD==&lt;br /&gt;
At present, there are 20 units and these Units under NSUD officially formed their own respective tribal unions with their own constitutions and function within the framework of the constitution of NSUD, which stands at the apex.&lt;br /&gt;

Myndoli bananas are distinct due to their long, tusk-shaped appearance and larger size, setting them apart from other banana varieties in Goa. Under its [[Geographical Indications in India|Geographical Indication]] tag, it is referred to as &amp;quot;Myndoli Banana&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book |last1=Kole |first1=Chittaranjan |title=Genomic Designing for Biotic Stress Resistant Fruit Crops |date=18 March 2022 |publisher=Springer Nature |isbn=978-3-030-91802-6 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=YBFlEAAAQBAJ&amp;amp;dq=myndoli+banana&amp;amp;pg=PA60 |access-date=18 December 2024 |language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:7&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Name== &lt;br /&gt;
The Myndoli banana is believed to be named after the village of [[Moira, Goa|Moira]] in Bardez, where this variety is thought to have originated. The [[Franciscan priests]] are believed to have introduced the banana variety to the village of Moira in the 15th century.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news |title=Goa: Moira bananas, Harmal chillies get GI tag |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/goa/moira-bananas-harmal-chillies-get-gi-tag/articleshow/77294024.cms |access-date=18 December 2024 |work=The Times of India |date=1 August 2020}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; It is known as various names like Maidya/ Moidya/ Mainoli/ Mandoli/ Myndoli/ Moidechim kelim. The word &amp;quot;Kellim&amp;quot; means banana in [[Konkani language|Konkani]], - the state language of Goa.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news |title=Goan food becomes philatelic material |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/goa/goan-food-becomes-philatelic-material/articleshow/88350516.cms |access-date=18 December 2024 |work=The Times of India |date=18 December 2021}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Description==&lt;br /&gt;
Myndoli bananas are distinct due to their long, tusk-shaped appearance and larger size. They are a huge and tall-growing banana plant found in Goa, particularly in Pernem, Bicholim, and Bardez.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news |last1=Times |first1=Navhind |title=Khaje, Harmal chillies and Moira bananas get GI tag |url=https://www.navhindtimes.in/2020/08/01/goanews/khaje-harmal-chillies-and-moira-bananas-get-gi-tag/ |access-date=18 December 2024 |work=The Navhind Times |date=31 July 2020}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The unique soil and climatic conditions in these areas, along the tributaries of the [[Mapusa River|Mapusa]] and [[Chapora River|Chapora]] rivers, support the growth of this heavy feeder variety, imparting a particular taste to the bananas. They are fleshier than other types of bananas grown in Goa. A bunch of Myndoli bananas contains 85-98 bananas, with deep yellow to golden, meaty, and firm flesh. The skin turns from green to golden and develops black spots as it ripens.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:7&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web |title=Myndoli Banana |url=https://ipindia.gov.in/writereaddata/Portal/Images/pdf/Journal_138.pdf |website=Intellectual Property India |access-date=18 December 2024}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Myndoli bananas have several unique characteristics. They have a better taste and fewer seeds, making them widely used in preparing shakes in different variants. They also have a longer shelf life compared to other varieties. Notably, Myndoli bananas are the sweetest, with 30.85% TSS, the highest among all other varieties.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:7&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Myndoli bananas are in high demand, especially during festivals like [[Ganesh Chaturthi]], [[Diwali]], and [[Christmas]]. Locals have a special attachment to Myndoli bananas, considering them a best gift to relatives and friends during functions and festivals.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:7&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; They are also used to prepare traditional [[Goan cuisine|Goan dishes]] like &amp;quot;Myndolya Kelyacho Halvo&amp;quot; (Banana dessert - Ripe banana slices fried in [[ghee]] and cooked in sugar syrup).&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news |title=GI Tags for Goan Products {{!}} Business Goa |url=https://businessgoa.in/gi-tags-for-goan-products/ |access-date=18 December 2024 |date=30 October 2023}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news |last1=PRABHU |first1=PADMAVATI |title=Govt applies GT tag to Harmal chilli coconut vinegar Goan khaje and Myndoli bananas |url=https://www.gomantaktimes.com/news/goa/govt-applies-gt-tag-harmal-chilli-coconut-vinegar-goan-khaje-and-myndoli-bananas-1163 |access-date=18 December 2024 |work=Goa News on Gomantak Times |date=1 February 2020 |language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

==Geographical indication==&lt;br /&gt;
It was awarded the [[List of geographical indications in India|Geographical Indication]] (GI) status tag from the [[Geographical Indication Registry (India)|Geographical Indications Registry]], under the [[Government of India|Union Government of India]], on 14 September 2021 and is valid until 12 December 2029.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |title=Goa banana |url=https://search.ipindia.gov.in/GIRPublic/Application/Details/680 |website=Intellectual Property India |access-date=19 December 2024}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news |last1=Braganza |first1=Miguel |title=Why marigolds spell good news for Goa&#039;s Myndoli banana |url=https://www.gomantaktimes.com/news/goa/why-marigolds-spell-good-news-for-goas-myndoli-banana |access-date=18 December 2024 |work=Goa News on Gomantak Times |date=20 October 2024 |language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Myndoli Banana Growers Association (MBGA) from Pernem, proposed the GI registration of Myndoli banana. After filing the application in December 2019, the banana was granted the GI tag in 2021 by the Geographical Indication Registry in [[Chennai]], making the name &amp;quot;Myndoli Banana&amp;quot; exclusive to the bananas grown in the region. It thus became the first banana variety from Goa and the 4th type of goods from Goa to earn the GI tag.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news |last1=Team |first1=Herald |title=GI tag for Bebinca, Mankurad, Agsechi Vayingim &amp;amp; Sat Shiro Bheno |url=https://www.heraldgoa.in/goa/gi-tag-for-bebinca-mankurad-agsechi-vayingim-sat-shiro-bheno-/208360 |access-date=18 December 2024 |work=Herald Goa |date=3 August 2023 |language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book |last1=Destailleur |first1=Marie |title=Biodiversity and Business: Who Will Save Whom? |date=2022 |publisher=Springer Nature |isbn=978-3-031-71674-4 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=URQ2EQAAQBAJ&amp;amp;dq=myndoli+banana&amp;amp;pg=PA503 |access-date=18 December 2024 |language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The GI tag protects the banana from illegal selling and marketing, and gives it legal protection and a unique identity.&lt;br /&gt;

The &#039;&#039;&#039;Satellite Launch Vehicle&#039;&#039;&#039; or &#039;&#039;&#039;SLV&#039;&#039;&#039; was a [[small-lift launch vehicle]] project started in the early 1970s by [[ISRO]] to develop the technology needed to launch satellites. SLV was intended to reach a height of {{Nowrap|{{convert|400|km}}}} and carry a payload of {{nobreak|{{cvt|40|kg}}}}.&amp;lt;ref name=DOSLV&amp;gt;{{cite web|title=Launch Vehicles|url=http://dos.gov.in/launchvehicles.aspx|publisher=Department of Space, Government of India|access-date=19 January 2014|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140201215831/http://dos.gov.in/launchvehicles.aspx|archive-date=1 February 2014}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The first experimental flight of SLV, in August 1979, was a failure.&amp;lt;ref name=slv/&amp;gt; The first successful launch took place on 18 July 1980.&lt;br /&gt;

The first launch of the SLV took place in [[Sriharikota]] on 10 August 1979. The fourth and final launch of the SLV took place on 17 April 1983.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It took approximately seven years to realise the vehicle from start.

All four SLV launches occurred from the [[Satish Dhawan Space Centre SLV Launch Pad|SLV Launch Pad]] at the [[Satish Dhawan Space Centre|Sriharikota High Altitude Range]]. The first two launches were experimental (E) and the next 2 were designated as developmental (D) as this was the first launch vehicle being developed by India not intended for a long service life.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Silver&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Raver, is a city and [[municipal council]] in [[Jalgaon district]], renowned for its agricultural significance, particularly as a major banana-producing area. Often referred to as part of the &amp;quot;banana belt&amp;quot; of Jalgaon, Raver contributes significantly to the district&#039;s economy through banana exports, reaching markets across India and abroad. The town is characterized by its beautiful old architecture and ancient temples, reflecting a rich cultural heritage. It is also known for its scenic surroundings, with the nearby Pal Hill Station offering a retreat into nature with its diverse flora and fauna. As a hub of agricultural production and cultural history, Raver plays a crucial role in the region&#039;s development. Raver is famous for an ancient Dattatreya Temple. The Shri Datta Mandir Sansthan in Raver, is a spiritually significant temple with a rich heritage rooted in the Nath and Datta Sampradaya traditions. It was established around 1820 by Shri Sadguru Satchidanand Swami Maharaj, a revered saint in the lineage of Sant Eknath Maharaj.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This temple is known for housing sacred relics—the divine padukas (footprints) and a staff (chhadi) believed to be bestowed by Lord Dattatreya himself. The main deity is a one-faced Panchdhatu (five-metal) idol of Lord Dattatreya, symbolizing spiritual unity and divine grace.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Biography ==&lt;br /&gt;
Rose Musleah was born in 1911 in [[Kolkata|Calcutta]] (now Kolkata) in [[British India]], the only child of a [[Jews|Jewish]] family of [[Baghdadi Jews|Baghdadi]] origin.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:1&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite web |title=Filmindia is different says Rose. from private secretary to film star Rose |url=https://www.cinemaazi.com/feature/filmindia-is-different-says-rose-from-private-secretary-to-film-star-rose}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |title=October 10: Bollywood&#039;s Sulochana |url=https://jewishcurrents.org/october-10-bollywoods-sulochana |access-date=2023-10-25 |website=Jewish Currents |language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Her father was the secretary of the Costa Rican consul in India. Rose had two cousins who were also actresses: Pramila ([[Esther Victoria Abraham]]) and Ramula ([[Sophie Abraham]]).&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Musleah dreamed of studying medicine, but her wealthy parents prevented her from doing so. Upon finishing her studies at the age of 15, which she graduated with honors, Mosley became a personal secretary, and taught [[Ballroom dance|ballroom dancing]] in the evenings.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:2&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite web |title=Instagram |url=https://www.instagram.com/p/CHc177kpaUY/ |access-date=2023-10-25 |website=www.instagram.com}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Because of her attractive appearance, friends suggested she start acting and she started acting on the stages, for Agha Ashhar.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Musleah spoke only [[English language|English]] and [[French language|French]], not [[Hindi]] or [[Bengali language|Bengali]]. She had to learn these two languages from the beginning. After studying and gaining acting experience in the theater, she applied with a letter of recommendation to [[Jamshedji Framji Madan|JF Madan]]  and started working in [[Cinema of West Bengal|Tollywood]] films. Her first film was in 1922 directed by Madan and she acted in other films for him.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 1927 at the age of 16 she got married and later went through divorce and financial difficulties before becoming a star of the silent films in the twenties. In 1935 she moved to [[Mumbai|Bombay]] and joined Imperial&#039;s first studios.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She co-starred with her cousin Pramila In the 1936 film &#039;&#039;Hamari Betiyan&#039;&#039; (Our Darling Daughters), .&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:0&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the movies she liked to play the role of a country girl, although she mostly played a rich character. She co-starred with actors [[Motilal (actor)|Motilal]] in [[Hum Tum Aur Woh (1938 film)|Hum Tum Aur Woh]] in 1938 and [[Prithviraj Kapoor]] in [[Adhuri Kahani]] in 1939.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; She was known for her dancing and singing talent in films, as well as the colorful dresses and luxurious [[Sari|sarees]] she used to wear in films and in life.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |title=Jewish Actresses in Bollywood |url=https://jwa.org/encyclopedia/article/jewish-actresses-bollywood |access-date=2023-10-25 |website=Jewish Women&#039;s Archive |language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A back injury from which she never recovered, ended her acting career.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite web |last=DrShail |date=2022-01-29 |title=Forgotten Movie Icons of Yesteryears - The Jewish Queens of Bollywood |url=http://www.reddit.com/r/bollywood/comments/sfbt2x/forgotten_movie_icons_of_yesteryears_the_jewish/ |access-date=2023-10-25 |website=r/bollywood}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Personal life ==&lt;br /&gt;
At the age of 16 she got married, changed her name to that of her husband and became Rose Ezra. The couple had two daughters Marjorie and Cynthia.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She later divorced and returned to her original name Rose Musleah. After stopping her acting career, she remarried and moved to the United States.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:3&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Musleah died in [[Los Angeles]], [[California]], [[United States]] in 1985.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |title=Rose Musleah discography - RYM/Sonemic |url=https://rateyourmusic.com/artist/rose-musleah |access-date=2023-10-25 |website=Rate Your Music |language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
