Tuki urges historians for in-depth 

research of tribes 

DOIMUKH, November 1: 

Chief Minister Nabam Tuki today 

called on the historians and 

academicians to go for in-depth 

research from the ground level to 

the top and do the documentation. 

He said there should not be any 

scope for deviation from the basic 

facts that would remain for 

posterity in history books. 

Tuki was addressing the 

inaugural session of the three-day 

33 rd Annual Conference of the 

North East India History 

Association (NEIHA) this morning 

at Rajiv Gandhi University here at 

Rono Hills, Doimukh. 

In the past several historians 

have attempted to document the 

history of our tribes and the state. 

Unfortunately few did so by not 

getting into the ground realities 

and documented on the basis of 

half-done researches. Nomen 

clatures like Abors for the Adis, 

Dafla for the Nyishis and ‘other 

Naga tribes’ for tribes like 

Wanchos, Noctes, Tangsas, etc of 

Tirap and Changlang districts 

were coined and wrongly made 

part of the history,” he pointed. 

Observing that the oral 

tradition and communication of 

folklores, folk traditions, ethnic 

herbal treatments and people’s 

culture and indigenous 

institutions are yet to be rightly 

documented, Tuki appealed 

historians, writers and 

intellectuals to work in this line. 

He also called for a soul 

searching deliberation and 

discussion during the conference 

to evolve a mechanism to ensure 

that the history and culture of the 

State should find a place in history 

of AP and NE states which share 

international borders as sentinel 

of the country, he said that the 

people of NE are as patriotic as 

any Indian of this great nation. 

Ering hoped that the festival 

with theme of “Youth for Unity” will 

be a fruitful event promoting its 

objective of uniting & involving the 

youth of the country and 

understanding & promoting the 

rich cultural heritage & its 

exchange among the youths. 

On the occasion youth icon 

& London Olympics Bronze 

medalist MC Mary Kom was 

felicitated by the Government of 

Arunachal Pradesh by presenting 

her with a cheque of Rs. 10 lacs 

as a token of appreciation for her 

recent commendable 

books of schools, colleges and 

universities of the country. 

The paucity of written 

documents, lack of script among 

most of the tribes of the State, 

except for few and limited 

exploration and excavation are the 

major bottlenecks to understand 

the history and cultural 

transformation of the ancient and 

mediaeval periods of Arunachal 

Pradesh,” he said. 

Calling for incorporating and 

imparting a peripheral regional 

history and culture into 

mainstream educational 

knowledge system, Tuki said it 

would allow students to 

appreciate and understand the 

diverse culture of the North East 

India in general and Arunachal 

Pradesh in particular. 

achievement ,which was handed 

over to her by Ering. 

Mary Kom, while thanking 

the people of the state and 

government of Arunachal for 

honoring her, expressed gratitude 

for their support and 

encouragement in her Olympic 

pursuit. In her motivating address, 

Kom said being from a humble 

family background faced with 

various challenges, sheer will & 

perseverance to succeed helped 

her in her effort & dream to be 

world class boxer. She exhorted 

the youth that “We can overcome 

all obstacles through sheer will 

power”. While assuring to guide 

aspiring & promising boxers in all 

possible capacity, she informed 

(contd. on P-8)... 

This would help in 

cementing and strengthening of 

the unity in diversity and ability to 

accept and tolerate multicultural 

and multiracial mosaic of India 

among the younger generation in 

the days to come. I am confident, 

imparting & inculcating such 

historical knowledge will ensure 

the success of India’s democracy, 

the defense of its secular fabric, 

the removal of inequalities related 

to class, caste, gender, region, 

community, and the pursuit of subcontinental 

peaceful coexistence,” 

the Chief Minister 

added. 

The inaugural session was 

also attended by Lok Sabha MP 

Takam Sanjoy, Vice Chancellor 

(Acting) Prof K C Kapoor and 

members of NEIHA.

National Service Scheme (NSS) 

The Ministry of Youth Affairs & Sports has decided to 

reposition the National Service Scheme (NSS) by adding a 

new Skill Development dimension to the scheme. The new 

focus of the scheme would be on students attaining 

employable skills while undertaking work with the community 

to bring about sustainable social change and equity. A pilot 

project to this effect would be undertaking in the current 

financial year.The NSS, which would now be rechristened as 

the National Service and Skill Development (NSSD) Scheme, 

originally aimed at fostering relevance between higher 

education institutions and social well-being. Over a period 

of time, since the inception of NSS, the country has 

undergone socio economic changes, which have 

necessitated a review of the Scheme and its objectives.The 

reformulated NSS aims at creating socially 

conscientious students; developing generic and domain led 

skills that would enhance student employability; enabling 

certification (Diploma) of students in an employability 

enhancing skill in addition to receiving a degree in the field 

of study. In 2006, the University Grants Commission issued 

an advisory encouraging Universities and Colleges to 

introduce Career Oriented Programmes at first degree level. 

The objective is to introduce career and market-oriented, skill 

enhancing add-on courses with potential for job, selfemployment 

and empowerment of the students. The UGC 

recommended offering add-on courses at (i) Certificate (20 

credits); (ii) Diploma (40 credits inclusive of 20 credits earned 

during Certificate Course), and (ii) Advanced Diploma (60 

credits inclusive of 40 credits earned together during 

Certificate and Diploma courses respectively). Each credit 

means 15 hours of teaching / practice and significant portion 

of the total credit load assigned to field work / project work.In 

keeping with the above, since NSS Volunteers are mandated 

to do community service, the idea is to introduce vocational 

skill oriented certificate and diploma programmes through 

which NSS volunteers can gain the course credits through 

lectures offered during weekends and practical work done 

during vacations.

Taking out a piece of poison 

root from the trunk, Mimi crushed 

them into pieces on a stone. After 

that by sprinkling some water over 

them, she sapped the pieces by 

squeezing them. Mixing the juice 

with milk, she filled it into a milk 

bottle. Rising from there she 

looked at the face of the peacefully 

sleeping baby on the bed. After 

that she picked up the baby 

affectionately. He had not woken 

up. Mimi didn’t feel well. Why didn’t 

he wake up? Some time had 

passed. Even so the baby didn’t 

wake up. She became a bit 

annoyed. What had happened to 

him? What a Kumbhakarna! She 

pinched his tender shoulder. 

Shocked, the baby stirred his 

hands. Instantly, he cried out. Mimi 

raised the milk bottle. But her 

hands were shaking—very 

vigorously. Because of the 

shaking of her hands, the poisonmixed 

milk was also shaking. She 

felt, not only her hands but also 

her entire body was also shaking. 

She looked into the face of the 

baby—he was crying. His little lips 

were trembling. His tongue 

stirred, the limps shuddered. 

Innocent baby—the entire world’s

love had been inscribed on his 

mouth and cheeks. Infinite kisses 

would also not exhaust it. 

After some time he stopped 

crying. He opened up his eyes. A 

bright dream to live as a human 

has appeared in those eyes. This 

love of his, this dream would soon 

end. Oh god! How will this

happen! He had not harmed 

anybody. He can not say some 

one would plot to put an end to 

his life. He does not recognize 

even if Yamraj faces him. Her 

heart began to beat out of fear and 

apprehension. She will execute 

what she had embarked upon. 

She had given thoughts to

‘Prithivir Hanhi’, a short story given here is a realistic chronicle about plight of women of Adi society in the prevalent social scenario. 

Introduction: 

Arunachal Pradesh is 

surrounded by Bhutan to the west, 

Myanmar to the East, the 

autonomous Tibetan region of the 

People’s republic of China in the 

North and the states of Assam 

and Nagaland to the South. This 

mountainous tract is located 

between 26.28 N to 29.28 N. 

latitude and 91.30 E to 97.30 E 

longitudes has 26 major tribal 

population groups with number of 

sub tribes totaling approximately 

110 linguistic groups. The state 

has got 17 districts in total. 

The state remains by and 

large in the stage of primitive 

subsistence economy where 

Jhum cultivation is still in practice 

due to hilly terrain which provides 

a limited scope for capital 

investment and scientific 

improvement. Truly speaking 

there is no industrial 

establishment in the state with an 

Cultivation of poppy, Usage of opium and drug 

trafficking in Lohit and Anjaw districts of 

exception of a few small scale 

timber and cane and bamboo 

industries. Moreover, since the 

state falls under “Inner Line 

Regulation Act” there has been no 

appreciable investment on 

various sectors and as a result 

the progress in the sectors like 

Tourism etc. is found to be slow 

Mithun (Bos Frontalis), the state animal of Arunachal 

Pradesh is the living wealth of the people of Arunachal 

Pradesh. This beautiful semi-domesticated animal with 

prominent horns has religious significance and has intimate 

relation with socio-cultural life of the people. It is found in 

East Kameng, Kurung Kumey, Lower Subansiri, Upper 

Subansiri, Papumpare, West Siang, East Siang, Upper Siang, 

Dibang Valley, Lower Dibang Valley, Lohit 

and Anjaw districts of the state. 

Mithun is known by different names 

by various tribes of the state. It is primarily 

reared for meat and highly preferred 

among the people of the state. 

Traditionally, the Methun is a unit of wealth 

and is allowed to move freely in the jungle 

till it is either used for food on festive 

occasions and marriage feasts, or for 

barter. It is also used as a ceremonial 

animal and plays very important role in 

economical, social and cultural life of the people of the state. 

It is considered a status symbol in tribal societies since time 

immemorial. 

Though found in Bangladesh, Bhutan, Cambodia, 

China, Malaysia (peninsular), Myanmar, Nepal, Thailand and 

Vietnam, and Indian states like Mizoram, Manipur and 

Nagaland, Arunachal Pradesh with 1,86,000, (as per 2007

despite having enough 

potentialities for its development. 

A brief account of Opium 

Opium is an addictive drug 

made from the juice of Poppy 

flower. Many areas of Arunachal 

Pradesh are now under Poppy 

cultivation and gradually the fields 

are turning commercial. Nearly 

whatever she had to think. Now 

there is no more time to think 

further. 

Mimi hoisted up the bottle to 

the baby’s mouth with her shaking 

hands. He attempted to pull the 

bottle towards his mouth. 

Repeatedly he tried to hold the 

bottle with his two hands. Her 

heart beating became faster. Her 

shaking of hands became more 

vigorous, the body’s temperature 

rose. The sweating formed into 

drops of water on her forehead. 

She was just about to push in the 

nipple of the milk bottle into his 

mouth. An unbearable pain 

emanating from within her heart 

destabilized her. She can not look 

into the baby’s face, she does not 

have courage. Raising her head 

she looked towards the wall. Then 

peering through the cracks of the 

wall she saw a mother mithun 

feeding milk to her baby while 

affectionately slaking its body. 

Look, those animals have so 

much love for their offspring. To 

give her enormous love, the 

mother was feeling very proud of 

finding a baby. But she was a 

human being. What was she trying

222 villages in Lohit and 266 

villages in Anjaw district which has 

boarders with China and 

Myanmar have opium cultivation. 

Opium is also cultivated in several 

Kitchen garden size plots in 

almost every households of Lohit 

and Anjaw district. Though the 

people of these two districts grow 

paddy, Maize, Millet, Potato, ginger, 

Wheat, Pulses, Chili and 

vegetables but the earnings from 

these products are not up to their 

expectation. The preparation of 

Opium from Poppy flower is a 

system in which the Poppy pods 

are cut with a blade and the latex 

is collected in a can which 

contains Opium. The latex is also 

smeared on a cloth. There are two 

methods of its use called “Pucca” 

method and “Katcha” method. In 

“Pucca” method Opium is 

collected on a nettle cloth and 

dried. Each time when it is needed 


Livestock Census) has the highest Mithun population in the 

world. 

A Mithun breeding farm established in 1995 on 350 acres 

of land at Sagalee, 96 km from Itanagar, conducts research 

on multipurpose use of this docile animal, like milching and 

ploughing. 

For its hardy, well built and massively strong body the 

department of Animal Husbandry and 

veterinary has successfully evolved the 

ploughing ability of the Mithun under a 

package of practice that was 

experimented at the Department of 

Animal Husbandary & Veterinary run 

Mithun Breeding Farm at Sagalee in 

Papum-Pare district. A Demonstration of 

the ploughing ability of the Mithun was 

carried out at Krishi Vigyan Kendra (ICAR) 

at Karsingsa for the general farmers on 

9th June’2009. 

A study on the milking capacity of Mithun has also 

revealed that a Mithun on an average, can yield up to 1.5 litres 

of milk daily, equivalent to three-litres milk of a cross-bred 

cow. 

The animal is facing the threat of extinction due to mass 

slaughter during local festivals and commercial consumption, 

prompting the civil society to call for its protection.

TEZU, November 5: 

Taking a note of the recent 

development of opening up of 

more employment opportunities 

in the banking sector for the first 

time in any college in Arunachal 

Pradesh, a coaching programme 

for banking examinations was 

conducted in the Indira Gandhi 

Government College, Tezu. 

The coaching programme 

which was inaugurated on 

November 4 last is for a period of 

three months. 

Inaugurating the programme, 

College Principal B.K Nath 

exhorted the participants to make 

good use of the career coaching 

programme, while Dr. K. Rajendra 

informed the DC that all were 

installed by the WRD under the 

12th five years plan and were 

funded by the central government 

to meet up the water crisis in the 

hospital. 

While appreciating the 

venture, the DC commented that 

conserving water is an important 

way to protect the environment. 

Installing a rainwater harvesting 

system is an excellent way to do 

just that - as well as enjoying the 

benefits of clean, safe drinking 

water. He advised that people 

should be made aware because 

demand for water is growing in 

the city as citizen requires almost 

double the amount of water and 

the PHED has their limits to find 

water for the growing urban 

populations. However, the DC 

advised to conduct pre and post 

monsoon maintenance of the 

reservoirs to prevent water borne 

diseases in future. 

Mishra while talking about 

the groundwater irrigation system 

said it can play pivotal role in 

agriculture sector by boosting 

cultivation activities besides 

reducing poverty. He said instead 

of MIC, groundwater irrigation 

system should be developed and 

introduced effectively to welcome 

green revolution in the flood 

prone East Siang district. 

In his reply, the 

Superintendent Engineer VN 

Pandey informed that the 

government is planning to provide 

thousands of subsidized handpumps 

and bore-wells in the 

districts soon.

Cultivation of Poppy... 

for consumption the opium in the 

cloth is boiled and dried again and 

a piece is placed in a pipe and 

smoked. The “Pucca” addicts are 

hardened users. In ‘kutcha’ 

method in a piece of cloth the 

opium extract is smeared and 

dried and then these are boiled in 

Tea and consumed. Some of the 

people can chew raw opium also. 

Popular belief suggests that 

Opium is a drug was deliberately 

introduced by the British. As the 

Mishmis were an aggressive 

group of people the drug was 

used to make them obedient. 

Whatever may be the cause the 

consumption of opium is a 

traditional practice and it can be 

witnessed that the opium has 

severely harmed the fertility of 

these people. With the free trade 

of opium between India and 

Myanmar since the signing of 

bilateral trade in 1995 extreme 

abuse of opium have been 

reported since 1997.Cases of the 

addicted person selling off their 

properties for the sake of buying 

opium was widespread in recent 

years. Many of these addicts 

consumed opium by smoking 

wooden and bamboo pots known 

as “Doba” although injection or 

needles fed with opium is also 

found. 

Opium prone areas in 

Arunachal Pradesh and its 

preventive measures : 

In Arunachal Pradesh the 

youths in Tirap, Changlang , Lohit 

and Anjaw districts are worst 

affected . In a recent study it was 

found that Arunachal,s Tirap, 

Changlang , Lohit , Anjaw and 

Upper Siang districts are the 

Poppy belt region. In a recent 

survey the CBN( Central Bureau 

Of Narcotics) carried out a study 

to determine the extent of illicit 

cultivation of Poppy in the Poppy 

belt areas and found that majority 

of their people started opium 

growing since 1999. The size of 

the plots varied between 50sq. km 

and 12 Hacs. The average yield 

is approximately 5-8 kg / Hac .The 

CBN destroyed a large hectors of 

land of Poppy in 1999, 2000 and 

in 2002. Again in 2010 “Operation 

Mithun” was launched. Both 

Central Govt and State Govt are 

trying their level best to overcome 

the situation by means of various 

methods such as by destructing 

the poppy cultivation, giving a ban 

on opium trade etc. Yet trade of 

opium goes on unchecked in the 

districts of Eastern Arunachal 

Pradesh where cultivation of 

Poppy plants is widespread. It can 

be mentioned here that apart from 

Lohit and Anjaw districts of 

Arunachal Pradesh Changlang is 

another district where poppy 

plants are cultivated extensively 

despite periodic raids by their 

district Police and officials of 

Narcotics Controlled Bureau.( 

NCB). Similarly in Tirap, Lohit, 

Anjaw and to some extent in 

Lower Dibang Valley districts the 

cultivation of Poppy goes on 

unabated notwithstanding raids 

from time to time while illicit drugs 

including brown sugar , heroine 

etc are also being used by a 

section of people. 

A glimpse of Lohit District: 

The Lohit District of 

Arunachal Pradesh derived its 

present name from one of its 

principal rivers, The Lohit, a 

tributary of mighty river 

Brahmaputra , also spelt as Luhit 

which rises from the eastern Tibet 

and enters India near Dichu 

village in the Kibithu area of 

present Anjaw District. The 

confluence of these rivers is 

known as the Brahmaputra. 

According to ancient Indian 

Literature the river is called 

“Lauhuitya” which is associated 

with the legends of Parasurama. 

The Lohit district is situated 

on the North Eastern extremity of 

Arunachal Pradesh . It lies 

approximately between the 

latitude 27.33’N and 29.22’N and 

the longitude 95.15’E AND 

97.24’E. The latitude of 28.N 

crosses the District at its broadest 

part and the longitude of 96.E runs 

through its longest part. Lohit 

District is the homeland of the two 

sub-tribes of the Mishmis namely 

the Taraon (Digaru Mishmis) and 

the Miju(Kaman Mishmis). The 

Taraon Mishmis(Digaru) are 

concentrated in the eastern side 

of Dibang and west central parts 

of Lohit District. The Miju(Kaman 

Mishmis) are settled in the 

eastern parts of Lohit District. In 

addition to these two tribes few 

other tribes such as Khamptis , 

Singphos and a section of 

Padam(Adi) also inhabit in this 

district. A small pocket of Idu 

Mishmis(one of the sub-tribes of 

Mishmis) also found in the District 

HQ. Apart from these a small 

section of Tibetan and Chakma 

Refugees have been settled at 

Tindolong (near Tezu) and 

Chowkham area respectively. 

The cultivation of opium in 

Lohit Valley goes for centuries for 

consumption and for trade and 

also used in rituals too. Today, 

along with improvement of 

education and some other 

reasons like improvement of 

communication etc it has brought 

prosperity to the valley. A good 

number of villages in Anjaw 

district and in the villages of Lohit 

district in East Arunachal 

Pradesh, which has borders with 

China and Myanmar , have opium 

cultivation. 

Two decades ago, opium 

cultivation was restricted to a 

small area. Today there are large 

hectares of opium fields, 

producing much more than the 

requirement of that nearly a large 

number of addicts are in Anjaw 

and Lohit District. The annual 

yield of opium is as an average 

10 kg a hectare.. Opium is 

cultivated on several kitchen- 

garden-sized plots in Hawai town, 

the headquarters of Anjaw district, 

in the hills. One such plot is just 

three minutes’ walk from the 

Circuit House and opposite a 

school. 

At Tezu,in the prime location 

of the district headquarters and 

in the foothills, there are several, 

well-fenced fields of poppy 

cultivation about 200 meters 

across the Indira Gandhi College 

or about a kilometer from the 

Circuit House and across the Tezu 

river. The Khamptis and the 

Singphos grow poppy in the lower 

part of this district and the Digaru 

Mishmis in the upper part. 

Historical rerecords show 

that Opium has been cultivated in 

the Lohit area for centuries. A 

British traveler T.T Cooper 

mentioned the consumption of 

opium in these areas. “Verrier 

Elwin” has written that opium was 

distributed by British expedition to 

the Mishmis as a political ploy. 

The Central Bureau of 

Narcotics (CBN)has found opium 

cultivation in many parts of Lohit 

district of A.P . According to the 

Bureau opium is also being sold 

as an important cash crop in 

these areas. According to official 

figures, there are large numbers 

of addicts in the country. The year 

1972 was the cut-off year for 

opium addicts across the country 

to register them. Forty-seven 

years later, hundreds of 

thousands of new addicts have 

joined them. There is much to be 

done to change the situation in 

Lohit Valley and Lohit district 

borders Assam. The opium fields 

begin within a few kilometers of 

the checkpoint at Dirak, and after 

the Noah Dihing. They are 

carefully hidden behind clumps of 

trees and tea estates. “Namsai” 

the sub divisional town of Lohit 

District is where it is first seen in 

abundant concentration. The 

plots vary from 50 square meters 

to a hectare. 

The historical records say 

that these two districts ( Lohit and 

Anjaw) cultivated opium for 

centuries for consumption and 

use it in ritual and medicines. 

According to a rough estimate the 

annual yield of opium is around 

10 kg a Hectare. The average 

addict takes about 3 gms of opium 

a day which is much more than 

what an addict consumes 

anywhere in the country. One of 

the causes behind the spurt in 

opium trade is that the farmers 

are getting huge return s by 

cultivating poppy in stead of other 

crops . The National crime bureau 

has already expressed serious 

concern over the volume of drug 

trafficking in the region. 

Considering the gravity of the 

situation it is high time the region 

had an exclusive force to tackle 

the drug trade. One of the 

important aspects is that the 

authorities of all the NE States 

should co- ordinate their steps to 

combat this menace, because the 

opium trade if carried on 

unchecked will not only affect 

Arunachal Pradesh but 

subsequently other states of 

North Eastern regions as well. If 

strong steps are not initiated it 

might pose a serious threat to the 

region. Those found involved with 

opium trade should be strongly 

dealt with. Time has come to 

make everyone alert and 

awareness camp should be 

organized from time to time by 

Government Agencies , NGO,s 

and other local bodies with united 

efforts by all to solve the deep 

rooted opium menace in the 

district where more than 70% of 

the house holds are affected. 

A survey Report 

A 2010-11 survey by the Delhi 

based Institute for Narcotics 

studies and Analysis ( INSA) 

revealed an alarming situation on 

drug abuse in Lower Dibang Valley 

besides Lohit, Anjaw, Changlang 

, Tirap and Upper Siang districts. 

Operation Mithun -2010 was also 

launched in Lohit and Anjaw by 

Govt of India , Ministry of Finance , 

Central Bureau of Narcotics ( 

CBN) from January 2010 which 

continued up to February 2010 

first to identify the location and 

extent of poppy cultivation area. In 

their second phase the 

destruction of poppy cultivated 

area started but there was stiff 

opposition from various cross 

sections of people. It can be 

mentioned here that destruction 

operation of poppy cultivations in 

these areas started from 1991 or 

even earlier. However, the recent 

boom in opium trade in the 

eastern part of Arunachal Pradesh 

can be traced back as early 

as1990 when the UN drug control 

programme offered assistance to 

Myanmar to eradicate illicit opium 

production: 

CONCLUSION: 

From the facts mentioned 

above it can be said that cultivation 

of Poppy at its initial stage was not 

associated with commercial 

motive. Probably it was it was used 

for medicinal purpose and to 

some extent for religious needs to 

appease various benevolent and 

malevolent deities. In the olden 

days when there were not much 

health facilities in the remote 

villages the people used to take 

opium from medicinal point of view. 

it was used as an additive to regain 

strength and to get freshened up 

after whole day of toiling in the field. 

But as time passed on the young 

generation too got influenced init 

and started taking it as pleasure. 

The aged (old) people say the 

usage of opium was for medicinal 

purposes which could cure body 

pain, headache, diarrhea and 

some other acute disease too 

without going to the Doctor. While 

interviewing with the villagers 

regarding the ill effect of opium that 

say “bad reputation in our society 

is not due to usage of opium but 

due to illegal use in drug trafficking 

such as heroine, cocaine, Brown 

sugar, alcoholism etc which are 

slowly penetrating to the society” 

But whatever may be the 

case the root must be pulled out 

and every person in the society 

must be alert to tackle the dreaded 

drug menace and to combat illicit 

drug trafficking so that present 

upcoming generation is saved. 

Strong vigil by the law enforcing 

authorities is needed to thwart the 

activities of those who are involved 

in the trade. Those found involved 

with opium trade should be 

strongly dealt with. Moreover, the 

voluntary agencies and society as 

a whole should come forward to 

assist the authorities in combating 

the scourge of drugs. 


The Education Minister Bosiram 

Siram today in a message to the 

Circle Officer of newly created

to do? Trying to destroy her 

creation. And look, the baby was 

attempting to thrust in the life 

destroying poison into his mouth 

mistaking it to be his mother’s 

milk. Streams of tears began to 

flow down her cheeks. The milk 

bottle fell down from her hands 

instantaneously. Picking up the 

bottle, she hurled it into the far. He 

can not die. He must grow into a 

human being. She must live on 

for his sake. She will fight against 

other’s injustice. She will win her 

life. His two cheeks got wet by her 

tears. After that, lifting her blouse 

she fed him. She peered at his 

loving face. She was his mother. 

She became proud of her 

motherhood. Feeding over, she 

lifted the baby in her bosom and 

went out of the house aimlessly. 

Mimi had got caught herself 

by Dempe. 

Going to the field in a rainy 

day she had to stop beside a river 

bank. The open waves of the river 

were flowing ferociously. She 

stepped into the river to cross it. 

The water rose up to her waist. 

The waves threatened to hurl her 

down. She could not go further. 

She returned to the bank. She 

looked back. A young man was 

approaching—Dempe. 

Approaching Mimi, Dempe said, 

“Isn’t the water rising today?” 

Mimi did not respond. Facing 

opposite to Dempe, she kept on 

standing. She kept looking into 

the currents. 

Dempe said again, “Come, I will 

cross you.” 

“Uh hu—I will return to home.” 

Mimi replied. 

“What, is your work in the field 

over.” 

“Uh hu.” 

“Then.” 

“Who will cross me while returning 

from field?” 

“What is the matter, I will cross 

you.” 

“Will I meet you?” 

“Why not? Do one thing. Wait here 

if you do not find me on your return. 

Tell others also to wait here. If I 

arrive earlier, I will wait for you.” 

“Won’t your parents get angry for 

helping others to cross rivers?” 

“Does it matter to you?” He said 

laughing. Then he said, “Come.” 

Holding Mimi’s hands, 

Dempe got down to the river. The 

water rose up to the chest. The 

currents were so swift and 

threatened Mimi to carry along with 

its force. He held her hands tightly. 

Just then the current unloosed her 

skirt. She caught one end of the 

skirt with her one hand. She 

became completely naked, 

helpless. She covered her bosom 

with the other hand. She became 

full of shame. She looked into his 

face—he didn’t face her. He was 

looking towards the other bank. 

Soon after reaching the bank, he 

freed her hands. She glanced at 

his face. He had not looked at her 

still. Hastily, she put on her skirt. 

They got to the bank. Mimi 

halted. She lost the courage to 

face his eyes. Rubbing the soil 

with her toes, she lowered her 

eyes. 

“Come, it has been too late.” 

“You proceed.” Mimi said without 

looking at him. 

“Why, are you not going?” 

“I am ashamed of you.” 

“Why?” 

Mimi remained quiet. 

“What was the matter for being 

ashamed?” 

“Whatever happened now---—.” 

She couldn’t complete. 

Her being naked weighed 

on her mind. She was in full glare 

of his vision. But he consciously 

did not look at her. For him, 

watching her was immoral. As if 

he had not really seen her naked 

body, he said, “What had 

happened now? Come—there’s 

no time to wait.” 

Mimi thought—may be he 

had not seen her. Her shame 

became lighter. She followed him. 

Mimi can’t forget that day any 

more. Her hands had got 

entrenched in his broad chest. A 

sweet sensation developed with 

the union of his warm bosom and 

her shoulder. Now when he 

remembers it, she feels shame, 

she also feels good –she feels 

better. That day there was no 

sense of obscenity in his 

behaviour. May be she would also 

have felt like that had she been a 

young man. There was no sense 

of obscenity in his talks. Always in 

the forefront in coming to the help 

of others. She can’t probably 

forget his charity. One can’t get 

disappointed with such a 

generous and hale and hearty 

young man. Her mind had 

become as if of Dempe. 

Dempe—she felt so good. 

‘Dempe’ was like their Ponung 

dance. So sweet, so lovely like 

his sweet laughter. She felt like 

surrendering her body by 

entrenching in his broad bosom. 

One day Mimi gave him a 

jacket. Initially he had not wanted 

to take it. 

“Why are you giving it?” 

“Shouldn’t I have given it?” 

Having said this, she 

became red in the face. As if he 

was familiar with her since long. 

As if she owed many dues on 

him. As if she deserved to 

become proud if she had cleared 

those dues on him. She was not 

quite friendly with him. Or they 

had not talked to each other quiet 

often. She thought she was not 

pleased for having said that to 

him. Her intention was only to 

create a deep relationship with 

him. If he could not give her 

freedom to express those words 

then why did he cross her the river 

by holding her in his bosom? 

Even after crossing the river she 

had asked him to go ahead. But 

why did he deliberately ask her 

to go with him? 

He had said something in 

the middle, but as she was 

absentminded, she could not get 

it. Not having received any 

response from her, he left, saying 

“I am leaving.” 

“People do not accept our 

presents.” She said smugly. 

He halted. He thought— she was 

none to him, he had no ties with 

her family. He doesn’t present 

anything to others. 

“What will I give you in lieu of the 

jacket? Don’t have money also.” 

Dempe said. 

“I am not trying to become rich by 

selling the jacket to you. What 

shall I do? Girls like us should 

not give any gifts to others.” 

He started to leave taking the 

jacket with him. 

“Ok then. The jacket is so 

attractive.” 

Her face became bright all 

of a sudden like when the cloudy 

sky cleares with the appearance 

of the sun in the sky. 

“Eh, it’s enough! Wouldn’t 

have minded even if you had 

thought too little of it.” She said 

while smiling. 

She had been longing to 

hear such a word from him. Now 

she got something which had 

been deprived from her for long. 

She derived an unexplainable 

sense of joy even after giving the 

jacket to him. She felt as if she 

has consummated all her love 

for him through giving of the 

jacket to him. Truly she felt 

unlimited love for Dempe now. 

She felt as if she would not have 

felt gratified even if she made love 

to him now. His words were 

sweet, as if they were the lilting, 

sweet songs emanating from the 

lovely little wild birds. His smiles 

were so lovely; she had not seen 

it just like blooming flowers in the 

jungle before while she 

wandered out into the jungle to 

fetch firewood. 

“I am living Dempe! I have 

some paddy to husk.” She said 

briskly. 

“Ok then. But you look so lovely, 

Mimi!” 

“You’re so naughty! She said 

smilingly, looking at him from the 

corner of her eyes. 

“People turn naughty when they 

speak the truth.” 

“Are you hurt from what I have 

said?” 

“Why not?” 

“Don’t get hurt Dempe, I had 

simply joked it!” 

The two laughed together. 

“I would like to love you very 

much!” he said looking at her 

smilingly then ran away without 

looking back.

Students Corner 

A GOOD AUGURY: 

There has been noted a new 

awakening and tremendous 

enthusiasm among the students 

of Daporijo area for spread of 

education. This is evident from the 

active participation of the students 

in construction work of school 

buildings, hostels etc. the 

students of the M.E. School at 

Taliha, a border area, recently 

furnished an inspiring example in 

this regard. The students among 

themselves constructed one 

hostel building to accommodate 

50 students entirely on self-help 

basis. They also voluntarily 

carried on their shoulders 100 

loads of furniture for the school 

from a distance of 30 km and thus 

saved a huge amount of probable 

expenditure. They are also 

voluntarily offering labour for 

construction of new buildings for 

the school in the new site. 

SCOUTING: 

The first anniversary of scout 

raising day of Dumporijo L.P. 

School in the Daporijo area was 

recently observed in a befitting 

manner. Speaking on the 

occasion the Additional Deputy 

Commissioner, Daporijo, 

stressed the importance of scout 

training and said that such training 

would help the students to 

develop self – reliance and keep 

them physically and mentally fit. 

The scout group is incidentally the 

first of its kind to be raised in the 

Daporijo area. The programme for 

celebration of the anniversary 

included flag hoisting and march 

past and P.T. display by the scouts.

BOMDILA SCHOOL IN 

RETROSPECT: 

Some of the notable events 

of the year concerning the 

Bomdila Higher Secondary 

School are noted below:- 

For the second time, the all 

round best N.C.C. Troop Shield 

was awarded to the cadets of 

this school in 1967. The Hon’ble 

Chief Justice of the High Court 

for Assam and Nagaland 

expressed his appreciation for 

the students’ devotion to duty, 

sense of discipline and smart 

turn out when the boys presented 

Guard of Honour to him during 

his visit to Bomdila in April, 

1967. 

Shri D. Ering, Union Deputy 

Minister for food and Agriculture 

visited the school in the same 

month. A cultural show was 

organized in the school 

auditorium by the student and 

staff in honour of Shri Ering. 

The students of this school 

won five shields and many other 

prizes in district tournament 

held last year. The best trophy 

for discipline was awarded to 

them in the Inter-district 

Tournament held at Jairampur. 

Apart from these activities 

their record in academic side is 

also satisfactory. In 1966, the 

percentage of successful 

students in the M.E. final 

examination was 100 percent. 

(“This story is reproduced from 1966 issue of “NEFA INFORMATION”) 

The need of the hour is a 

cluster based approach. Clusters 

are defined as a sectoral and 

geographical concentration of 

micro, small and medium 

enterprises with inter-connected 

production system leading to firm/ 

unit level specialisation and 

developing local suppliers of 

material inputs and human 

resources. Availability of the local 

market, inter-mediaries for the 

produce of the cluster is also a 

general characteristic of the 

cluster. 

As a whole, cluster facilitates 

to face market challenges, quicker 

dissimination of information, 

sharing of knowledge and best 

practices and better cost 

effectiveness due to distribution of 

common costs. It also provides an 

effective and dynamic path for 

inducing competitiveness by 

ensuring inter-firm cooperation 

through networking and trust. The 

geographic proximity of the 

enterprises with similarity of 

products, interventions can be 

made for a large number of units 

that leads to higher gains at a lower 

cost, which in turn helps in their 

sustainability. The cluster approach 

thus aims at a holistic development 

covering areas like infrastructure, 

common facility, testing, technology 

& skill upgradation, marketing, 

export promotion. 

PIB Features 

Enhancing the Competitiveness of the MSME 

Sector through Cluster Development 

The Cluster Development 

approach has played an important 

role in enhancing the 

competitiveness of the MSE 

sector. Apart from the benefits of 

deployment of resources and 

economy of scales, the cluster 

development approach helps in 

weaving the fabric of networking, 

cooperation and togetherness in 

the industry and thus enabling the 

industry to achieve 

competitiveness in the long 

run. Cluster Development 

Approach is the answer of the 

Micro and Small Enterprises to the 

large scale sector of the country 

and the world and should be part 

of the business strategy. 

The Micro and Small units 

are generally not in a position to 

install costly machinery for their 

critical operations, accept large 

orders, or infuse large capital due 

to their limited capital base and 

limited domain expertise. 

However, collectively through 

cluster development approach, 

the micro and small enterprises 

can attain the desired goal of 

being competitive in the present 

global scenario. The Ministry has 

adopted cluster development 

approach as a key strategy for 

development of micro and small 

enterprises in various clusters. 

The Ministry is administering two 

cluster development progra 

mmes , namely, Micro and Small 

Enterprises–Custer Development 

Programme (MSE-CDP) and 

Scheme for Upgradation of Rural 

and Traditional Industries 

(SFURTI). 

The objectives of the 

scheme is to support the 

sustainability and growth of MSEs 

by addressing common issues 

such as improvement of 

technology, skills and quality, 

market access, access to capital, 

etc.; to build capacity of MSEs for 

common supportive action 

through formation of self help 

groups, consortia, upgradation of 

associations, etc., and to create 

and upgrade infrastructural 

facilities in the new and existing 

industrial clusters of MSEs. 

The cluster development 

initiatives in various clusters have 

reportedly delivered remarkable 

results. The guidelines of the MSE 

Cluster Development Progra 

mme (MSE-CDP) have been 

comprehensively prepared to 

provide higher support to the 

MSMEs. With this, more than 500 

clusters spread over across the 

country have so far been taken up 

for diagnostic study, soft 

interventions and setting up of 

CFCs under the programme. The 

efforts under the scheme are 

focused on covering more and 

more clusters across the country.

Directorate General of Health Services 

Ministry of Health and Family Welfare

Nirman Bhawan, New Delhi 

We can beat the challenge of Tuberculosis (TB) 

Every time you handle a TB case, tell your nearest health 

authorities. Because that’s how we can know the dimension 

of the problem and deal with it better. 

Notification of TB cases 

TB continues to be a major public health problem accounting for substantial morbidity and mortality in the 

country. Early diagnosis and complete treatment of TB is the corner-stone of TB prevention and control strategy. 

Inappropriate diagnosis and irregular/incomplete treatment with anti-TB drugs may contribute to complications, disease 

spread and emergence of Drug Resistant TB. 

In order to ensure proper TB diagnosis and case management, reduce TB transmission and address the 

problems of emergence and spread of Drug Resistant-TB, it is essential to have complete information of all TB cases. 

Therefore, the healthcare providers shall notify every TB case to local authorities i.e. District Health Officer/Chief 

Medical Officer of a district and Municipal Health Officer of a Municipal Corporation/Municipality every month in a given 

format (indicated below). For the purpose of case notification, a TB case is defined as follows: 

A patient diagnosed with at least one sputum specimen positive for acid fast bacilli, or culture-positive for 

mycobacterium tuberculosis or RNTCP endorsed Rapid Diagnostic molecular test positive for tuberculosis or a patient 

diagnosed clinically as a case of tuberculosis, without microbiologic confirmation, and 

initiated on anti-TB drugs. 

For the purpose of this notification, healthcare providers will include clinical establishments run or managed by 

the Government (including local authorities), private or NGO sectors and/or individual practitioners.

KHONSA, October 31: 

In the recent past Tirap District has 

been witnessing increased 

movements of Under 

Ground(UG) groups of NSCN (IM) 

and NSCN (K). On 23 rd October 

2012 an inter factional clash took 

place at Chasa village between 

the two groups. Reacting 

immediately on the receipt of 

information security forces 

including local police, 36 Bn 

CRPF and 1 st Bn Assam Rifles 

were dispatched from Khonsa. 

On seeing the security 

forces approaching, the UGs 

withdrew from the village and fled 

away into the forest. However, 

during the operation one AK 

series assault rifle was 

recovered by the SFs. 

Subsequently on 28 th October 

early morning input was received 

by the police that activity of both 

the factions was noticed around 

Borduria village. To avoid any 

clash, a joint operation of Assam 

Rifles, CRPF and local police 

Prompt action by security forces deals a blow to 

UGs’ plans 

was launched against the 

insurgents. Because of the 

prompt and unexpectedly fast 

reaction of the security forces, the 

UGs of both the factions were 

taken unawares and started 

fleeing from the fringes of the 

village on seeing the security 

forces approach. 

As a result the team was 

able to recover an AK 56 rifle with 

ammunition and the UGs were 

forced to hide in the forest and 

as such the Security forces 

succeeded in preventing any 

clash inside the village. The 

security forces dominated the 

village overnight. Subsequently 

the two groups engaged in a fire- 

fight in the forest area between 

Borduria and Kaimai villages 

during the night hours. The team 

of security forces which had 

stationed in Borduria and Kaimai 

for the night launched an 

operation at first light against the 

UGs. Again sensing threat, the 

insurgents fled away and in the 

hurry left behind another AK 56 

rifle and ammunition. In both the 

instances, cases have been 

registered at Khonsa Police 

Station. 

This is for the first time that 

within a span of one week the 

security forces have recovered 

three AK series assault rifles and 

over 100 live rounds of AK 

ammunition. Generally the UGs 

do not leave behind any weapons 

which they guard more than their 

lives. This is an indication of the 

pro-activeness of the police and 

security forces deployed in the 

district. 

It may be pointed out here 

that the security forces deployed 

in the district are spread over the 

vast area of the district and as 

such mobilizing the forces takes 

time owing to the topography, 

dense forests as well as poor 

condition of roads. Considering 

these facts more forces are in an 

advanced stage of being 

deployed in the district.
