Bamboo craftsmanship as a<br />

potential aspect of Arunachal’s<br />

<strong>in</strong>dustry<br />

Arunachal Pradesh has a vibrant craft tradition ma<strong>in</strong>ly based<br />

on bamboos and every tribe excels <strong>in</strong> bamboo craftsmanship.<br />

Cane and bamboo is an important craft apart from weav<strong>in</strong>g, and<br />

the craftsmanship is of very high order. Except for the communities<br />

<strong>in</strong> Tawang and Bomdila sector, all the dwell<strong>in</strong>g houses are<br />

traditionally made of bamboos. Hats, baskets of various designs,<br />

other household articles are made of bamboos. Besides us<strong>in</strong>g<br />

bamboo as fuels on many occasions, this plant is also used on<br />

many other decorative and ritual purposes.<br />

Cane and bamboo form the basic raw materials which meet<br />

the requirements of everyday life –from house-mak<strong>in</strong>g to mak<strong>in</strong>g<br />

baskets, fish<strong>in</strong>g traps, dress items, construction of suspension<br />

bridges across rivers, and religious paraphernalia—thus complet<strong>in</strong>g<br />

their day-to-day needs. People of the state have fully utilized the<br />

raw material offered by Mother Nature.<br />

With the use of cane and bamboo as raw materials, the<br />

basketry technique naturally occupies a very important place<br />

<strong>in</strong> the technological development. However, this craftsmanship<br />

is restricted to menfolk only while weav<strong>in</strong>g is conf<strong>in</strong>ed to the<br />

womenfolk. S<strong>in</strong>ce cane and bamboo work constitute the major<br />

cottage <strong>in</strong>dustry <strong>in</strong> the state, it is now time to seriously consider about<br />

enhancement of the exist<strong>in</strong>g traditional technology by develop<strong>in</strong>g<br />

and adopt<strong>in</strong>g advanced technology not only <strong>in</strong> order to susta<strong>in</strong><br />

this culture but also to transform this to a vibrant <strong>in</strong>dustry. This is<br />

possible only when all stakeholders jo<strong>in</strong> hands <strong>in</strong> an endevour to<br />

promote this traditional <strong>in</strong>dustry which has an enormous potential<br />

<strong>in</strong> our Arunachal Pradesh. Bamboo craft as an aspect of cottage<br />

<strong>in</strong>dustry has enormous bear<strong>in</strong>g on our economy.<br />

I feel extremely happy and proud<br />

tosee that the first ever <strong>in</strong>dependent<br />

Wancho script has been developed<br />

and <strong>in</strong>troduced <strong>in</strong> the Wancho<br />

Society through the s<strong>in</strong>cere efforts<br />

and arduous tasks carried out by Mr.<br />

Banwang Losu. It will def<strong>in</strong>itely help<br />

<strong>in</strong> preservation of this <strong>in</strong>digenous<br />

language which happens to be an<br />

important marker of cultural identity<br />

of the people from be<strong>in</strong>g lost and <strong>in</strong><br />

promot<strong>in</strong>g the language for scholastic<br />

ventures.<br />

The Wancho language is classified<br />

as the Naga group of Tibet-Burman<br />

branch. It has aff<strong>in</strong>ity with Nocte<br />

and Tangsa languages of the same<br />

language family. L<strong>in</strong>guistically, the<br />

Wanchos of Arunachal Pradesh are<br />

classified <strong>in</strong>to three groups based on<br />

their dialectical differences- Upper<br />

Wancho (Tang group) <strong>in</strong>habited <strong>in</strong><br />

and around Ponchao and Wakka<br />

circle, Middle Wancho(Sang group)<br />

occupy<strong>in</strong>g Longd<strong>in</strong>g and Pumao<br />

circle, and Lower Wancho settled<br />

<strong>in</strong> the Kanubari circle of the district.<br />

Their<br />

language, commonly called<br />

‘Kah’, differs mostly <strong>in</strong> terms of tone<br />

and pronunciation. Many people of<br />

the community converse <strong>in</strong> their l<strong>in</strong>k<br />

languages like Assamese and H<strong>in</strong>di.<br />

The educated ones even speak<br />

Gone are the days when the<br />

villagers used to clear miles of village<br />

paths lead<strong>in</strong>g to the agricultural<br />

fields, rivers, water sources and<br />

so on so forth <strong>in</strong> the not too distant<br />

past on self-help basis. They used<br />

to construct teachers’ quarters and<br />

school build<strong>in</strong>gs without ask<strong>in</strong>g a<br />

penny from the <strong>gov</strong>ernment. They<br />

felt pleasure <strong>in</strong> do<strong>in</strong>g social service<br />

<strong>in</strong> the <strong>in</strong>terest of their community.<br />

The <strong>gov</strong>ernment was not allowed to<br />

get <strong>in</strong>volved at all. It used to be done<br />

on community basis and on a regular<br />

basis. Today, this community work is<br />

truly dead. The villagers have been so<br />

mollycoddled by the elected leaders<br />

that even for construction of their<br />

own toilet they demand funds from<br />

the <strong>gov</strong>ernment. They are not will<strong>in</strong>g<br />

to do anyth<strong>in</strong>g sans sanctions from<br />

the <strong>gov</strong>ernment. This spoon-feed<strong>in</strong>g<br />

culture is annihilat<strong>in</strong>g another ageold<br />

culture, the spirit of community<br />

work <strong>in</strong> the villages. Today, the same<br />

villagers who were always will<strong>in</strong>g to do<br />

anyth<strong>in</strong>g for their villages free of cost<br />

tend to demand <strong>gov</strong>ernment sanction<br />

even for petty jobs <strong>in</strong> the villages. The<br />

countless CC steps <strong>in</strong> the villages<br />

are caus<strong>in</strong>g more harm than good<br />

because they are not laid properly.<br />

They become slippery and dangerous<br />

dur<strong>in</strong>g ra<strong>in</strong>y seasons. The traditional<br />

CC steps were much better and were<br />

easy to make without spend<strong>in</strong>g a s<strong>in</strong>gle<br />

Wancho Script <strong>in</strong>troduced<br />

<strong>in</strong> English. Under the <strong>in</strong>fluence and<br />

pressure of other dom<strong>in</strong>ant languages<br />

and culture, the Wanchos are fac<strong>in</strong>g<br />

difficulties <strong>in</strong> ma<strong>in</strong>ta<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g the l<strong>in</strong>k<br />

and cont<strong>in</strong>uity with their past. The<br />

non- availability of <strong>in</strong>digenous script<br />

has created difficulties for Wancho<br />

writers and the elite group to develop<br />

their language through literature. The<br />

vast treasure of <strong>in</strong>digenous language<br />

and relevant <strong>in</strong>formation is dy<strong>in</strong>g out<br />

without proper documentation. Their<br />

language, like many other <strong>in</strong>digenous<br />

languages of the world, may face a<br />

Know Your State<br />

Itanagar, the beautiful capital city of Arunachal Pradesh<br />

is situated at the southern part of the state on the foothills of<br />

Himalayas. Adm<strong>in</strong>istratively it comes under Papum Pare<br />

district.<br />

Although the capital city is predom<strong>in</strong>antly <strong>in</strong>habited by the<br />

Nyishis, it is currently <strong>in</strong>habited by people from all tribes and<br />

other parts of the country also. Festivals of different tribes are<br />

celebrated <strong>in</strong> the city all the year round.<br />

Be<strong>in</strong>g the state capital, Itanagar is well connected by road<br />

and air. NH 52A connects it to other parts of the country. There is<br />

a regular helicopter service between Guwahati and Naharlagun-<br />

12 kms from Itanagar, besides a railway l<strong>in</strong>e is connect<strong>in</strong>g<br />

Itanagar with the Indian railway network shortly.<br />

Established <strong>in</strong> 20th April 1974, the capital is named after<br />

the historical fort – the Itafort, dat<strong>in</strong>g back to the 14th -15th<br />

centuries. Besides Itafort, Itanagar houses the Rajbhawan,<br />

the official residence of the Governor, the CM’s Bungalow and<br />

other official bungalows of M<strong>in</strong>isters, Parliamentary Secretaries,<br />

MLAs, Arunachal Pradesh Civil Secretariat, Public Service<br />

Commission and other important offices <strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g Permanent<br />

situation of endangerment. It was,<br />

of late, realized that their unique<br />

language would rema<strong>in</strong> alive <strong>in</strong> its<br />

pure form if it can be documented<br />

with the help of a proper script. The<br />

Wancho scholars op<strong>in</strong>e that their<br />

language cannot be documented<br />

entirely by us<strong>in</strong>g H<strong>in</strong>di or English<br />

alphabets (Devanagiri and Roman<br />

scripts respectively) as these alphabets<br />

cannot represent all the orig<strong>in</strong>al sounds,<br />

tones and pronunciation of words of<br />

their language. It is not sufficient to<br />

transcribe the local language perfectly.<br />

Know your responsibilities and<br />

not only your rights<br />

penny. Th<strong>in</strong>gs have come to such a<br />

pass that for every s<strong>in</strong>gle peccadillo<br />

or misdemeanor the people criticize<br />

and blame the Chief M<strong>in</strong>ister and the<br />

<strong>gov</strong>ernment. The people must realize<br />

that the Chief M<strong>in</strong>ister is as good as<br />

the people. The HCM is like the cricket<br />

capta<strong>in</strong>. The capta<strong>in</strong> is as good as<br />

the players. The capta<strong>in</strong> alone cannot<br />

do anyth<strong>in</strong>g if the other members of<br />

the team do not perform. The wearer<br />

knows where the shoe p<strong>in</strong>ches. The<br />

Chief M<strong>in</strong>ister must be do<strong>in</strong>g his best<br />

to ensure that he leaves no scopes for<br />

compla<strong>in</strong>t but everyth<strong>in</strong>g does not go<br />

as we plan. We often falter. He must<br />

also be hav<strong>in</strong>g constra<strong>in</strong>ts which we<br />

must appreciate.<br />

It is seen that the private <strong>in</strong>dividuals<br />

<strong>in</strong> the districts and the state capital<br />

construct houses, garages, private<br />

roads flaunt<strong>in</strong>g all rules if any with<br />

impunity thereby block<strong>in</strong>g the dra<strong>in</strong>s.<br />

Now, should they blame the HCM<br />

and the <strong>gov</strong>ernment for this too? In<br />

Arunachal Pradesh all the districts<br />

and the capital are crisscrossed by<br />

numerous streams and rivulets. The<br />

people have illegally established<br />

colonies on both the banks of these<br />

streams creat<strong>in</strong>g irreparable damage<br />

to the streams and caus<strong>in</strong>g landslides<br />

every year. In fact, most of the<br />

disasters <strong>in</strong> our state are manmade.<br />

Now, aga<strong>in</strong>, should they blame the<br />

HCM and the <strong>gov</strong>ernment of the day<br />

for this too? They leave the bulbs<br />

glow<strong>in</strong>g brightly <strong>in</strong> the offices and<br />

other public places day and night.<br />

Some <strong>gov</strong>ernment employees leave<br />

the bulbs around their quarters<br />

switched on for months together when<br />

they go on leave ostensibly to scare<br />

away the thieves. The water tapes<br />

<strong>in</strong> offices, schools and public places<br />

are left open allow<strong>in</strong>g the precious<br />

water to flow merrily. Now, do we<br />

have the right to blame the HCM and<br />

the <strong>gov</strong>ernment for this? We must<br />

admit that we lack civic sense totally.<br />

However, we are adept at tra<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g<br />

our accus<strong>in</strong>g f<strong>in</strong>gers on others. But<br />

please remember, when we po<strong>in</strong>t<br />

a f<strong>in</strong>ger at others there are three<br />

f<strong>in</strong>gers po<strong>in</strong>t<strong>in</strong>g back at us. Of course,<br />

the thump f<strong>in</strong>ger that represents the<br />

gullible public is always confused<br />

and oblivious of what is go<strong>in</strong>g on. Let<br />

us not derive sadistic pleasure from<br />

accus<strong>in</strong>g the <strong>gov</strong>ernment for every<br />

petty matter. Let us th<strong>in</strong>k <strong>in</strong> what way<br />

we can contribute our mite to build our<br />

poor state vibrant, strong and selfreliant.<br />

Let us seriously follow what<br />

John F. Kennedy said, “Ask not what<br />

your country can do for you-ask what<br />

you can do for your country?” In this<br />

case our state Arunachal Pradesh.<br />

ITANAGAR<br />

The proposed modified Roman script,<br />

they believe, could not solve the script<br />

problem of the Wancho language<br />

and meet the immediate scholastic<br />

need of the literate and educated<br />

mass. There was an urgent need for<br />

common alphabets to document the<br />

exist<strong>in</strong>g language of the Wanchos with<br />

a uniform sound. Hence, it was felt that<br />

an <strong>in</strong>dependent Wancho script was<br />

required to transcribe different sounds<br />

that make different mean<strong>in</strong>g. Thus,<br />

an <strong>in</strong>dependent Wancho script called<br />

‘Wancho Laizi’ has been developed<br />

and <strong>in</strong>troduced <strong>in</strong> the society. Lot of<br />

care has been taken to represent the<br />

exist<strong>in</strong>g sounds and tones.<br />

I hope the people of the community<br />

will accept the script with pride and<br />

satisfaction and work for further<br />

development of their language and rich<br />

culture. I also hope to see the Wancho<br />

<strong>in</strong>tellectuals use their own language and<br />

script for reflect<strong>in</strong>g upon their thoughts<br />

and ideas and for understand<strong>in</strong>g and<br />

remember<strong>in</strong>g historical experiences,<br />

their cultural heritage, folks and the<br />

folk tradition. I expect the support and<br />

cooperation of the people <strong>in</strong> my present<br />

work related to the morphological and<br />

syntactical analysis of the Wancho<br />

language. At last, I wish them luck<br />

and congratulations on this noble<br />

achievement.<br />

take offence at what. Sadly, some<br />

people have the uncanny knack of<br />

criticiz<strong>in</strong>g the <strong>gov</strong>ernment without any<br />

basis and without go<strong>in</strong>g deep <strong>in</strong>to the<br />

issue[s]. They always tend to have<br />

a pedestrian attitude and grizzle or<br />

compla<strong>in</strong> about everyth<strong>in</strong>g. This is<br />

surely not go<strong>in</strong>g to stand them <strong>in</strong> good<br />

stead <strong>in</strong> life. Be<strong>in</strong>g the eyes, ears and<br />

mouth of the <strong>gov</strong>ernment my bounden<br />

duty is to provide correct feedbacks to<br />

the <strong>gov</strong>ernment for which I am paid.<br />

So, please do not compla<strong>in</strong> that my<br />

present article is heavily loaded <strong>in</strong><br />

favour of the <strong>gov</strong>ernment. Hav<strong>in</strong>g<br />

said that I have always stood by my<br />

view that the state <strong>gov</strong>ernment may<br />

have bitten off more than it can chew<br />

vis-à-vis mega dams <strong>in</strong> the state. But<br />

this problem was handed down to<br />

the present HCM by the former CM<br />

late Dorjee Khandu. In fact, most of<br />

the problems are <strong>in</strong>herited ones. So,<br />

blam<strong>in</strong>g Nabam Tuki holds no water.<br />

The burn<strong>in</strong>g issue of PRC is another<br />

fiasco the state <strong>gov</strong>ernment could<br />

have done without. But aga<strong>in</strong> no body<br />

is <strong>in</strong>fallible. We should not be look<strong>in</strong>g<br />

for the ch<strong>in</strong>ks <strong>in</strong> the <strong>gov</strong>ernment’s<br />

armour but help the <strong>gov</strong>ernment<br />

<strong>in</strong> plugg<strong>in</strong>g the loopholes and the<br />

shortcom<strong>in</strong>gs if any, after all it is our<br />

<strong>gov</strong>ernment. Our defeatist tendency<br />

and lack of belief <strong>in</strong> our leaders are,<br />

I believe, the ma<strong>in</strong> reason for the<br />

Name is not significant<br />

(A Jataka Tale) -Chow Bilaseng Namchoom<br />

In my childhood, I was always captivated by the charm of the Jataka Tales and later realized that the Jataka Tales<br />

conta<strong>in</strong> deep truths, and are calculated to impress lessons of great moral beauty. The obvious lessons are many of them<br />

suitable for my little friends, and beneath the obvious there are depths and depths of mean<strong>in</strong>g which they may learn to<br />

fathom later on. The oriental sett<strong>in</strong>g lends an additional fasc<strong>in</strong>ation. Qua<strong>in</strong>t humor and gentle earnestness dist<strong>in</strong>guish<br />

these legends and they teach many wholesome lessons, among them the duty of k<strong>in</strong>dness to animals.<br />

Jataka stories speak eloquently of those human values, which contribute, to harmony, pleasure and progress. For<br />

develop<strong>in</strong>g moral conduct and good behavior, there is little more <strong>in</strong>structive foundation than Jataka stories. All Jataka<br />

stories hold out advice on how to correct our ways. They played and cont<strong>in</strong>ue to play <strong>in</strong> some societies an enormous role<br />

<strong>in</strong> the cultivation of peace and generosity.<br />

The Jatakas, or Birth-stories, form one of the sacred books of the Buddhists and relate to the adventures of the<br />

Buddha <strong>in</strong> his former existences, the best character <strong>in</strong> any story be<strong>in</strong>g identified with the Master. The Jataka tales are<br />

dated between 300 BC and 400 AD. The Jataka stories, over millennia, have been sem<strong>in</strong>al to the development of many<br />

civilizations, the cultivation of moral conduct and good behavior, the growth of a rich and varied literature <strong>in</strong> diverse parts<br />

of the world and the <strong>in</strong>spiration for pa<strong>in</strong>t<strong>in</strong>g, sculpture and architecture of endur<strong>in</strong>g aesthetic value.<br />

Many of the tales are set <strong>in</strong> or near Benares, now called Varanasi, a city <strong>in</strong> north central India on the Ganges River.<br />

One of the world’s oldest cities, Varanasi is the most sacred place for H<strong>in</strong>dus, Buddhists and Muslims also have important<br />

religious sites nearby. Accord<strong>in</strong>g to tradition, Buddha began his teach<strong>in</strong>g at Sarnath a short distance from this city.<br />

Part of the canon of sacred Buddhist literature, this collection of some 550 anecdotes and fables depicts earlier<br />

<strong>in</strong>carnations — sometimes as an animal, sometimes as a human — of the be<strong>in</strong>g who would become Siddhartha Gautama,<br />

the future Buddha. Jataka stories are well depicted <strong>in</strong> Amaravati, Nalanda, Ajanta, Ellora, Bharut, Nagarjunikonda,<br />

Borobudur and Angkor Vat.<br />

At this po<strong>in</strong>t I wish to draw the young friends’ special attention to the story of “Name is not significant”, from the<br />

collection of Namasiddha Jataka-97.<br />

When you read or listen to these very old stories, if you wonder how much it is really true, you should test the mean<strong>in</strong>g,<br />

weigh or consider it, and depend on your own <strong>in</strong>tuition to know the truth of it. Then follow and practice what you know to<br />

be true. Happy Read<strong>in</strong>g!<br />

In Taxila there was a teacher. He<br />

had many pupils. One of them was<br />

Papaka (a s<strong>in</strong>ner). When he was called<br />

by his name Papaka was too irritated.<br />

He thought-“ This name is very<br />

bad. I will adopt some other name.”<br />

Therefore, once, he approached the<br />

Teacher and said-<br />

“Teacher! My name is <strong>in</strong>auspicious.<br />

It is not good. Give me some other<br />

name.”<br />

The teacher said-“ Dear Pupil!<br />

Names are ony symbolic. They are<br />

used to call people. A name does not<br />

bear any significance. Rest satisfied<br />

with your present name.”<br />

But Papaka requested the teacher<br />

repeatedly for another name. So the<br />

teacher said-<br />

“Very well, son! Go round the town,<br />

and f<strong>in</strong>d yourself as auspicious name,<br />

I will change your present name when<br />

you come back.”<br />

The pupil went out <strong>in</strong>to the town<br />

to f<strong>in</strong>d a good name. He saw some<br />

people carry<strong>in</strong>g a dead man to the<br />

cemetery. He asked them-<br />

“What was his name?”<br />

“He was called Jeevika (a liv<strong>in</strong>g<br />

one),” they replied.<br />

“Does Jeeviak die too?”<br />

“why not! Jeevika dies as well as<br />

Ajeevaka. A name is just meant for<br />

call<strong>in</strong>g someone. It seems you are a<br />

fool.”<br />

Papaka was sad to hear that. He<br />

went <strong>in</strong>to the town, where he saw a<br />

master beat<strong>in</strong>g his slave with a piece<br />

of rope. He asked the man-<br />

“ Why are you beat<strong>in</strong>g this poor?”<br />

“Because she has not brought<br />

<strong>in</strong> any earn<strong>in</strong>gs today,’” the man<br />

replied.<br />

“What is her name ?”<br />

“Her name is Dhanapali (a wealthy<br />

one).”<br />

“She is named Dhanapali, still she<br />

is poor. Why?”<br />

“Dhanapali and Adhanapali (wealth<br />

less) both could be poor. A name is for<br />

call<strong>in</strong>g someone. You seem to be a<br />

fool.”<br />

The pupil was .aga<strong>in</strong> sad to hear<br />

this statement about name. He went<br />

out of the town. On the way, he met a<br />

man who had lost his way. He asked<br />

the man- ,<br />

“Why do you wander about <strong>in</strong> this<br />

manner ?” “Sir! I have lost my way,”<br />

the man said. “What is your name ?”<br />

“My name is Panthaka (way<br />

f<strong>in</strong>der).” “Can a Panthaka lose his<br />

way?”<br />

“Yes, both Panthaka and Apanthaka<br />

(way loser) can lose their way. A name<br />

is just for call<strong>in</strong>g. Don’t you know such<br />

a simple fact? You must be a fool.”<br />

Thus, the pupil returned to his<br />

Teacher with a very heavy heart. The<br />

Teacher asked him- .<br />

“Son<br />

Could you f<strong>in</strong>d a suitable name ?”<br />

He said-<br />

“Teacher! Both Jeevaka and<br />

Ajeevaka die. Dhanapali and<br />

Adhanapali both could be poor. A<br />

Panthaka loses his way, as well as an<br />

Apanthaka. A name is just for call<strong>in</strong>g<br />

a person. Now, I do not need another<br />

name. My present name is good for<br />

me.”<br />

Hence, the verse-<br />

“Jeevakanca matam disva<br />

Dhanapal<strong>in</strong>ca duggatam, Panthakanca<br />

vane mulham Papako punaragato.”<br />

(When he saw Jeevaka dead,<br />

when he saw Dhanapali poor, when<br />

he saw Panthaka wander<strong>in</strong>g about <strong>in</strong><br />

the forest, Papaka came back.)<br />

TRAFFIC RULES-A SAFETY MEASURE<br />

Modernization is everywhere <strong>in</strong><br />

every sphere, it has made the human<br />

life more comfortable. Now the most<br />

important <strong>in</strong>vention was of the wheel by<br />

Egyptians, which has not only shortened<br />

the distance but also has saved our<br />

precious time. In spite of advantages it<br />

holds lots of disadvantages too. Now<br />

lets look around we can see traffic jam is<br />

one of the most prom<strong>in</strong>ent problem face<br />

by the every country. When we come<br />

<strong>in</strong>to the northeastern region we will f<strong>in</strong>d<br />

our own state Arunachal Pradesh is also<br />

fac<strong>in</strong>g this problem day by day which has<br />

brought hurdles among the citizen.<br />

Over the years, road transport has<br />

become vital to the economic development<br />

and social <strong>in</strong>tegration of the country. Road<br />

transport has atta<strong>in</strong>ed a dom<strong>in</strong>ant position<br />

with<strong>in</strong> the transport sector and accounted<br />

for a share of 4.7 per cent <strong>in</strong> India’s gross<br />

domestic product (GDP) <strong>in</strong> 2010-11.<br />

Easy accessibility, flexibility of operations,<br />

door-to-door service, reliability and the<br />

grow<strong>in</strong>g use of just <strong>in</strong> time strategies <strong>in</strong><br />

manufactur<strong>in</strong>g have contributed towards<br />

a steady <strong>in</strong>crease <strong>in</strong> the modal share of<br />

road transport <strong>in</strong> the movement of both<br />

goods and passengers.<br />

In a globalised world, an efficient road<br />

transportation system is vital for <strong>in</strong>creas<strong>in</strong>g<br />

productivity and enabl<strong>in</strong>g the country to<br />

compete effectively <strong>in</strong> the world market.<br />

A world class road transport system is<br />

essential for lend<strong>in</strong>g competitive edge to<br />

the economy. Susta<strong>in</strong>ed economic growth,<br />

<strong>in</strong>creas<strong>in</strong>g disposable <strong>in</strong>come, and ris<strong>in</strong>g<br />

urbanization has led to ris<strong>in</strong>g demand for<br />

road transport and personalized mode<br />

of transport (cars and two-wheelers), <strong>in</strong><br />

particular. This is reflected <strong>in</strong> high annual<br />

compound growth <strong>in</strong> vehicle population<br />

of 10 per cent dur<strong>in</strong>g 2001-2011, which<br />

entails doubl<strong>in</strong>g of the country’s vehicle<br />

fleet every 6 to 7 years.<br />

India has experienced a tremendous<br />

<strong>in</strong>crease <strong>in</strong> the total number of registered<br />

motor Vehicles. The total number of<br />

registered motor vehicles <strong>in</strong>creased from<br />

about 0.3million as on 31st March, 1951<br />

to about 142 million as on 31st March,<br />

2011. The total registered vehicles <strong>in</strong><br />

the country grew at a Compound Annual<br />

Growth Rate (CAGR) of 9.9%between<br />

2001 and 2011.<br />

Growth <strong>in</strong> terms of CAGR of registered<br />

vehicles amongst the States/UTs shows<br />

wid Variations. While the highest CAGR<br />

for registered vehicles dur<strong>in</strong>g 2001-2011<br />

was recorded by Arunachal Pradesh<br />

(21.3%) which is one major problem<br />

rais<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> the state.<br />

Due to the <strong>in</strong>crease <strong>in</strong> the rate of<br />

vehicles there has been <strong>in</strong>crease <strong>in</strong><br />

the traffic jam as it is impossible for the<br />

vehicles to pass by the s<strong>in</strong>gle lane road.<br />

In capital complex one has to go half an<br />

hour before the fixed time to be <strong>in</strong> the<br />

time.<br />

A traffic policeman said, “the traffic<br />

jam has <strong>in</strong>crease a lot s<strong>in</strong>ce last 2 year.<br />

Earlier the jam was seen from Monday<br />

to Friday but now on Saturday and<br />

Sunday also it can be seen. The most<br />

problems are created by the teenagers<br />

as they lack awareness of the traffic rule.<br />

There are 18-20 traffic policeman <strong>in</strong> the<br />

capital complex and it create a problem<br />

to be at the time to handle the situation,<br />

Light signal is one of the important tool<br />

to control the traffic jam at the even<strong>in</strong>g<br />

time and it is one of the peak hour when<br />

traffic jam happens most he added. Most<br />

of the accidents are done by the female<br />

drivers and commercial vehicles, among<br />

youth bike accident is common as they<br />

avoid traffic rule. There is lack of park<strong>in</strong>g<br />

area <strong>in</strong> the capital complex which is a<br />

basic reason for the jam. As the road is<br />

narrow it cause a problem when people<br />

park their car <strong>in</strong> the road. . He suggested<br />

public awareness and public co-operation<br />

are needed <strong>in</strong> order to m<strong>in</strong>imize the<br />

problem.<br />

GENERAL RULES<br />

Vehicles with altered silencers are also<br />

prohibited on the road.<br />

DIRECTIONS GIVEN TO DRIVERS<br />

either through police officers regulat<strong>in</strong>g<br />

traffic or through road signs or traffic<br />

signals should be followed at all times.<br />

Violation of these is an offense.<br />

MAINTAIN AN ADEQUATE<br />

DISTANCE from the vehicle ahead of you<br />

to avoid collision if that vehicle suddenly<br />

slows down or stops. A chart to guide<br />

you on m<strong>in</strong>imum brak<strong>in</strong>g time required at<br />

different speeds is given on page 33 for<br />

your <strong>in</strong>formation.<br />

DO NOT BRAKE SUDDENLY except<br />

for safety reasons.<br />

ON MOUNTAINS AND STEEP<br />

ROADS the vehicle driv<strong>in</strong>g uphill must be<br />

given the right of way by vehicles com<strong>in</strong>g<br />

downhill. If the road is not sufficiently wide,<br />

pull your vehicle to a stop on the side of<br />

the road and allow the driver go<strong>in</strong>g uphill<br />

to proceed first.<br />

WHEN ROAD REPAIR WORK is<br />

go<strong>in</strong>g on, slow down and drive at a speed<br />

not exceed<strong>in</strong>g twenty five kilometers per<br />

hour.<br />

CARRY ONLY ONE PILLION RIDER<br />

on your two wheeler. You must carry the<br />

rider only on the back seat. Do not allow<br />

any rider to sit or stand <strong>in</strong> front of you (not<br />

even children). It is not only illegal but often<br />

becomes dangerous because sudden<br />

brak<strong>in</strong>g may throw out the child or person<br />

hitt<strong>in</strong>g the vehicle <strong>in</strong> front. It is a violation of<br />

law to carry goods on your two wheeler as<br />

the rider may lose balance easily lead<strong>in</strong>g<br />

to accidents.<br />

DO NOT DRIVE BACKWARDS longer<br />

than necessary, and do ensure that you do<br />

not cause danger or <strong>in</strong>convenience to any<br />

other person or vehicle while do<strong>in</strong>g so.<br />

DO NOT DRIVE on the road if you<br />

are unwell or after tak<strong>in</strong>g medication that<br />

is likely to impair your driv<strong>in</strong>g abilities<br />

<strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g tonics that may have alcohol<br />

content <strong>in</strong> them<br />

WHEN OVERTAKING do so from<br />

right of the vehicles you are pass<strong>in</strong>g. If<br />

the driver of the vehicle <strong>in</strong> front of you<br />

<strong>in</strong>dicates that he is turn<strong>in</strong>g right, you may<br />

pass from his left.<br />

In order to m<strong>in</strong>imize the problem of<br />

traffic jam if we follow the general rules it<br />

would be easier for the public to ma<strong>in</strong>ta<strong>in</strong><br />

the traffic and they will save time. Let us<br />

come together and solve this problem and<br />

we can beg<strong>in</strong> it from our self.<br />

The geographical location of the country<br />

further makes it highly vulnerable to the<br />

of provisions it is ris<strong>in</strong>g unchecked.<br />

Article 47 of the Constitution provides<br />

that “... the State shall endeavour to br<strong>in</strong>g<br />

Substances Act, 1985, was enacted to curb<br />

drug abuse with its section 71 conta<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g<br />

provision for sett<strong>in</strong>g up of rehabilitation and<br />

The bandh culture is another<br />

nemesis that has the potential to<br />

cripple the state permanently. The<br />

various organizations <strong>in</strong> the state<br />

must look for mutually reward<strong>in</strong>g<br />

means of protest to reach mutually<br />

agreeable solution and that the bandh<br />

call should be the last resort. There<br />

are array of dispensation channels<br />

other than the dreaded bandh through<br />

or de-addiction or rehabilitation for a former<br />

Besides, de-addiction camps are<br />

organized regularly to reach out to uncovered<br />

areas.<br />

The M<strong>in</strong>istry has also set up a National<br />

Centre for Drug Abuse Prevention (NCDAP)<br />

<strong>in</strong> the National Institute of Social Defence<br />

(NISD) for capacity build<strong>in</strong>g and tra<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g of<br />

NGOs runn<strong>in</strong>g CCs and TCs.<br />

It is also support<strong>in</strong>g eight NGOs work<strong>in</strong>g<br />

<strong>in</strong> the field of drug abuse prevention to<br />

function as Regional Resource and Tra<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g<br />

Centres (RRTCs).<br />

Pursuant to the Central Government<br />

has already approved the revised scheme<br />

(Scheme for Prevention of Alcoholism and<br />

Substance (Drugs) Abuse, 2008) to create<br />

awareness and educate people about the<br />

ill-effects of alcoholism and substance<br />

abuse on <strong>in</strong>dividual, family, workplace and<br />

society at large and to provide for the whole<br />

range of community based services for the<br />

identification, motivation, counsell<strong>in</strong>g, deaddiction,<br />

after care and rehabilitation for<br />

WPR of addicts.<br />

However, there is a need to revise the<br />

allocations as not many Five-Year Plans<br />

went without it. The Consumer Price Index<br />

has witnessed more than 100% <strong>in</strong>crease<br />

while <strong>in</strong>frastructure and logistics costs have<br />

also gone up.<br />

The cost of drugs and services <strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g<br />

substitute therapy require higher expenditure<br />

<strong>in</strong> addition to the need for revis<strong>in</strong>g the<br />

renumeration structure of professionals to be<br />

engaged on par with those engaged by the<br />

National AIDS Control Organisation (NACO)<br />

and M<strong>in</strong>istry of Health & Family Welfare.<br />

There is no provision <strong>in</strong> the exist<strong>in</strong>g<br />

Scheme for provid<strong>in</strong>g liv<strong>in</strong>g expenses<br />

(especially food) for the admitted addicts,<br />

necessary <strong>in</strong> the case of addicts from BPL<br />

families, street children, beggars and other<br />

vulnerable sections of the society.<br />

It was felt that there is a need to<br />

<strong>in</strong>corporate the concept of Whole Person<br />

Recovery (WPR) <strong>in</strong> the objectives of the<br />

Scheme.<br />

It aims at not just gett<strong>in</strong>g the addicted<br />

<strong>in</strong>dividual off alcohol or drugs but to ensure<br />

that the person is ‘drug free, crime free and<br />

ga<strong>in</strong>fully employed’.<br />

The WPR objectives <strong>in</strong>clude adaptation to<br />

work and responsibility, social re-<strong>in</strong>tegration,<br />

personal growth and self acceptance and<br />

acceptance of higher values.<br />

out. Yes, the law and order is a cause<br />

for worry <strong>in</strong> our state. But the pert<strong>in</strong>ent<br />

question is, when was our state<br />

peaceful? Blam<strong>in</strong>g the <strong>gov</strong>ernment<br />

alone will not serve the purpose. The<br />

citizens will have to be conscious of<br />

their responsibilities too. The few<br />

hooligans should not be allowed to<br />

hold the state to ransom. They say<br />

the only th<strong>in</strong>g necessary for the evil<br />

to triumph is for the good men to do<br />

noth<strong>in</strong>g. Another episode that was<br />

easily avoidable was criticiz<strong>in</strong>g the<br />

Political Secretary to HCM Bamang<br />

Tago. I th<strong>in</strong>k he is do<strong>in</strong>g his job. We<br />

could have done the same <strong>in</strong> his<br />

place. Some people were even very<br />

personal <strong>in</strong> attack<strong>in</strong>g him <strong>in</strong> various<br />

social networks. Today, Tago is <strong>in</strong><br />

this position by d<strong>in</strong>t of his hardwork<br />

and acumen. We must appreciate<br />

that. More over, how can one forget<br />

his contributions through his NGO<br />

ACR before he had even occupied<br />

this coveted position? They say<br />

‘the higher one soars, the smaller<br />

he seems to those who cannot fly.’<br />

Instead of criticiz<strong>in</strong>g Tago, let us<br />

learn from him how to sh<strong>in</strong>e <strong>in</strong> life.<br />

sorts of farmers’ problems need<br />

to be addressed through flurry of<br />

activities <strong>in</strong> farmer’s field by <strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g<br />

conduct<strong>in</strong>g of specific programmes<br />

mooted by BTT Chairmen and<br />

extension functionaries, besides<br />

facilitat<strong>in</strong>g and strengthen<strong>in</strong>g these<br />

exercises with the objectives of<br />

creat<strong>in</strong>g awareness. An overview of<br />

these exercises must be po<strong>in</strong>ted to<br />

a season based and time bound <strong>in</strong><br />

order to cover all cropp<strong>in</strong>g seasons,<br />

he added.<br />

Jumdo J<strong>in</strong>i, ADO and nodal<br />

Officer ATMA elaborated on the<br />

aims and objectives of ATMA,<br />

DAPORIJO, July 25:<br />

The 32nd <strong>gov</strong>ern<strong>in</strong>g body meet<strong>in</strong>g of<br />

District Rural Development Agency,<br />

Upper Subansiri was held here on<br />

July 24 last.<br />

The meet<strong>in</strong>g was chaired by the<br />

Zilla Parishad Chairperson, Sushil<br />

Nalo and attended by the DC cum<br />

CEO Tahang Taggu, Project Director<br />

Sode Potom, Zilla Parishad Members,<br />

Anchal Chairpersons, HoDs, BDOs<br />

of the CD Blocks, DRDA officers and<br />

officials.<br />

The meet<strong>in</strong>g reviewed the Annual<br />

Performance Report 2012-13 for<br />

presentation of draft Annual Action<br />

Plan (AAP) under SGSY for 2013-<br />

14 and also approved the draft AAP<br />

(2013-14), the DRDA Adm<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>istrative<br />

Budget and appo<strong>in</strong>ted chartered<br />

accountant for 2013-14.<br />

While address<strong>in</strong>g the house,<br />

Sushil Nalo stated that although the<br />

<strong>gov</strong>ernment was bestow<strong>in</strong>g funds<br />

under developmental packages <strong>in</strong><br />

the district, no tangible achievement<br />

was noted so far. He urged the new<br />

PRI members to strive towards<br />

Another unfortunate trend <strong>in</strong> our<br />

state is blam<strong>in</strong>g the elected leaders<br />

for everyth<strong>in</strong>g. They have become<br />

so dependent on their leaders that<br />

they even demand hard cash for<br />

build<strong>in</strong>g houses, medical treatment,<br />

marriages, nam<strong>in</strong>g of their children<br />

and for all k<strong>in</strong>ds of celebrations. But<br />

after do<strong>in</strong>g all these also they blame<br />

their leaders. If they have some<br />

better ideas for the development<br />

of their areas why don’t they share<br />

with their leaders? The leaders don’t<br />

have that magical wand to wave<br />

away all the ills <strong>in</strong> the society. The<br />

public has to play a pro-active role.<br />

In case they don’t like a particular was joy.”<br />

leader then they should vote him<br />

out <strong>in</strong>stead of criticiz<strong>in</strong>g him. Here,<br />

it is worth-mention<strong>in</strong>g that the WRD<br />

M<strong>in</strong>ister Newlai T<strong>in</strong>gkhatra has<br />

brought about a sea change <strong>in</strong> his<br />

constituency, especially Kanubari<br />

Township. Infrastructures like roads,<br />

build<strong>in</strong>gs, etc are <strong>in</strong> place and most<br />

of his workers are engaged <strong>in</strong> the<br />

permanent venture-tea cultivation.<br />

Kanubari is today, one of the fastest<br />

emerg<strong>in</strong>g model Towns <strong>in</strong> our state.<br />

its composition, orig<strong>in</strong>, fund<strong>in</strong>g<br />

pattern and their specified tasks <strong>in</strong><br />

hierarchal. He also discussed about<br />

the menace of bamboo flower<strong>in</strong>g and<br />

subsequent rodent outbreak. In order<br />

to counteract the rodent <strong>in</strong>cidences,<br />

J<strong>in</strong>i suggested several measures<br />

both mechanical and chemical<br />

methods which could be employed <strong>in</strong><br />

the hours of unprecedented upsurge<br />

of rodent population to subdue the<br />

possible losses.<br />

Dr. Kejom Padu, SVO, had<br />

a detailed discussion on scope,<br />

importance, and feasibility of farm<strong>in</strong>g<br />

system under animal husbandry. He<br />

Some unsung heroes <strong>in</strong>deed exist<br />

aga<strong>in</strong>st the backdrop of the chaotic<br />

ambiance.<br />

Let us say no to spoon feed<strong>in</strong>g<br />

culture, let us extend our fullest<br />

co-operation to the <strong>gov</strong>ernment <strong>in</strong><br />

the supreme <strong>in</strong>terest of our young<br />

state. Let us stop the blame game<br />

which we all seem to love. The HCM<br />

is only human and he is bound to<br />

err. The onus is on all of us to build<br />

our state and not on one person<br />

alone. Rab<strong>in</strong>dranath Tagore said,<br />

“I slept and dreamt that life was<br />

joy. I awoke and saw that life was<br />

service. I acted and behold service<br />

Together we can. Stop<br />

blam<strong>in</strong>g and start work<strong>in</strong>g. Some<br />

may say that I am overtly eulogiz<strong>in</strong>g<br />

the <strong>gov</strong>ernment which is wrong. The<br />

fact is I am only articulat<strong>in</strong>g the<br />

facts. They say ‘it is dangerous to<br />

be right when the <strong>gov</strong>ernment is<br />

wrong.’ But here there is no danger<br />

at all because neither I am right nor<br />

the <strong>gov</strong>ernment is wrong.<br />

animals and poultry related diseases<br />

and their prophylaxis and therapeutic<br />

Dur<strong>in</strong>g technical session, Jarny<br />

Yomcha, ADO drew the attention of<br />

the participants on the scope and<br />

importance of horticultural crops<br />

<strong>in</strong> context to Arunachal Pradesh.<br />

He <strong>in</strong>formed that management of<br />

orchards and nursery could create<br />

a unique avenue for employment<br />

generation.<br />

Nitum Riba, ADO (Hq) spoke on<br />

the various schemes both centrally<br />

sponsored and state sponsored that<br />

are <strong>in</strong> operation, while Nyage Loya,<br />

ADO (Mkt) made a fruitful discussion<br />

on Integrated Pest Management<br />

(IPM) <strong>in</strong> rice crop. He stressed on<br />

proper identification and dist<strong>in</strong>ction<br />

of pests and friendly <strong>in</strong>sects to br<strong>in</strong>g<br />

about suitable control measures<br />

and management techniques and<br />

advocated for conservation of natural<br />

predators of <strong>in</strong>sect pests and rodents,<br />

which hunts the voracious pests of<br />

rice at different stages and thereby<br />

reduc<strong>in</strong>g pests’ density and limit<strong>in</strong>g<br />

the quantum of <strong>in</strong>jurious impact on<br />

crops.<br />

Scores of pests and their<br />

damag<strong>in</strong>g stages and <strong>in</strong>fested signs<br />

were displayed through power po<strong>in</strong>t<br />

presentation.<br />

DRDA <strong>gov</strong>ern<strong>in</strong>g body meet<strong>in</strong>g<br />

held<br />

creat<strong>in</strong>g new assets dur<strong>in</strong>g their<br />

term. He <strong>in</strong>formed about the other<br />

schemes of the <strong>gov</strong>ernment like<br />

MSDP, NRLM, RGPSA etc and said<br />

that efforts were on to br<strong>in</strong>g the whole<br />

district under these schemes.<br />

On the occasion, Nalo requested<br />

the PRI members and <strong>gov</strong>ernment<br />

officers to work together to strengthen<br />

the Panchayat and to create<br />

<strong>in</strong>frastructure for the convenience<br />

of the public. He further advised<br />

that assets should be created at<br />

proper places so that it can really be<br />

used by the public and not for the<br />

convenience of the contractor.<br />

DC ,Tahang Taggu <strong>in</strong> his<br />

speech said that the meet<strong>in</strong>g was<br />

a platform for the discussion of the<br />

achievements, drawbacks, shortfalls<br />

of the projects be<strong>in</strong>g implemented<br />

by the DRDA and urged the PRI<br />

members to voice their appreciations<br />

or criticisms if they had any, so that<br />

no future problems and compla<strong>in</strong>ts<br />

arose.<br />

He stressed on the need for<br />

proper awareness creation amongst<br />

the masses about the schemes so<br />

that it truly benefits the needy and<br />

improved their economic status.<br />

This <strong>in</strong> turn would encourage the<br />

people to stay <strong>in</strong> the villages and<br />

rural areas and stop migration to the<br />

congested urban areas and towns,<br />

a trend observed <strong>in</strong> the recent<br />

years, he added. Cit<strong>in</strong>g the example<br />

of some places <strong>in</strong> the state where<br />

excellent assets had been created<br />

by the Panchayats, the DC urged the<br />

PRI members to do the same <strong>in</strong> the<br />

district. He also cautioned them that<br />

schemes should be implemented<br />

properly as timely checks, monitor<strong>in</strong>g<br />

and vigilance would be done.<br />

PD, S. Potom spoke on aims<br />

and objectives of the meet<strong>in</strong>g. He<br />

presented the Adm<strong>in</strong>istrative Budget<br />

and <strong>in</strong>formed the house about<br />

the dedicated work be<strong>in</strong>g done by<br />

the DRDA employees despite not<br />

receiv<strong>in</strong>g their salaries for the last 8<br />

months. The house expressed their<br />

concern over the issue and urged<br />

the <strong>gov</strong>ernment to rectify the neglect<br />

of the <strong>gov</strong>ernment employees.<br />

The Lamas of Lohit District of<br />

NEFA dwell ma<strong>in</strong>ly around Walong<br />

and Kibitho, two remote border<br />

outposts of the Agency. They are few<br />

<strong>in</strong> number and called themselves<br />

as meyors. Their forefathers had<br />

migrated to India from Tibet about<br />

100 years ago and settled down <strong>in</strong><br />

these circles. Initially they took abode<br />

<strong>in</strong> three villages, namely WALONG<br />

DONG and DARD. Now’ they are<br />

scattered <strong>in</strong> three more villages, called<br />

Tirnai and Sapkung <strong>in</strong> Walong circle<br />

and Musai village <strong>in</strong> Kibithoo circle.<br />

Some of them migrated to India only<br />

25 years ago and the others came as<br />

refugees.<br />

The Lamas (as they call<br />

themselves) who came earlier to India,<br />

are very polite and hospitable. They<br />

respect their guests from the core of<br />

t heir hearts and offer them the’ best<br />

available th<strong>in</strong>g. They conk the meat<br />

separately for the guest and serve<br />

the meal <strong>in</strong> a decent way with gentle<br />

hospitality. Ow<strong>in</strong>g to the cold climate<br />

they seldom take bath, but whenever<br />

a guest or a visitor cames to their<br />

house, they keep everyth<strong>in</strong>g neat and<br />

clean. They wash their mouths, hands<br />

and feet with luxury soap.<br />

Whenever they come down to a<br />

low altitude they eat half boiled liver of<br />

musk deer or of wild sheep. Sell<strong>in</strong>g of<br />

musk is their ma<strong>in</strong> source of earn<strong>in</strong>g.<br />

So far as the lama girls are<br />

concerned they are not as slim and<br />

slender as the Miju Mishmi girls are,<br />

Thiruvananthapuram under the Union<br />

Health and Family Welfare M<strong>in</strong>istry has<br />

become one of the largest producers<br />

of condoms <strong>in</strong> the world. HLL’stotal<br />

annual condom production capacity<br />

has now touched 1616 million pieces.<br />

Overseas and domestic demand for<br />

condoms has grown manifold especially<br />

<strong>in</strong> the wake of the Central <strong>gov</strong>ernment’s<br />

launch of free condom distribution <strong>in</strong><br />

rural districts which is a high-focus area<br />

for HLL. The company has started<br />

a major drive to augment production<br />

capacity <strong>in</strong> its units. As part of this<br />

action plan, the production capacity at its<br />

primary production plants <strong>in</strong>Peroorkada<br />

unit has been enhanced from 1,066<br />

to 1,246 million pieces per annum by<br />

<strong>in</strong>stall<strong>in</strong>g two mould<strong>in</strong>g mach<strong>in</strong>es. The<br />

company also manufactures condoms at<br />

its Belgaumand Hyderabad units, apart<br />

from Peroorkada.<br />

“Demand <strong>in</strong> the domestic and the<br />

overseas markets are on the rise. We<br />

are also on a major expansion drive to<br />

cope with the need. In the last three<br />

months, we have added a capacity of<br />

120 million pieces. Another round of<br />

expansion has also been planned”, said<br />

HLL Chairman and Manag<strong>in</strong>g Director<br />

Dr. M. Ayyappan. “We supplied around<br />

1,040 million condoms to the Health<br />

M<strong>in</strong>istry alone last year. There has been<br />

added pressure with the Government<br />

launch<strong>in</strong>g door-to-door delivery of<br />

condoms free of cost to stabilize the<br />

population. Besides, a ris<strong>in</strong>g awareness<br />

among people is also driv<strong>in</strong>g demand <strong>in</strong><br />

the domestic sector. We are look<strong>in</strong>g to<br />

bolster production considerably dur<strong>in</strong>g<br />

2013-14 and rema<strong>in</strong> as one of the world<br />

leaders”, he added.<br />

The Union Health M<strong>in</strong>istry has<br />

identified 266 high-focus districts <strong>in</strong><br />

the country to deliver contraceptives<br />

at people’s doorsteps with the help<br />

of accredited social health activists<br />

(AHSAs) as part of efforts at population<br />

control. HLL is the ma<strong>in</strong> supplier of<br />

products for this scheme.<br />

As part of its drive to optimise<br />

production and m<strong>in</strong>imise wastage,<br />

the company has also <strong>in</strong>stalled a new<br />

vulcanis<strong>in</strong>g mach<strong>in</strong>e. The new mach<strong>in</strong>e<br />

would help keep heat distribution at an<br />

optimum level result<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> reduction<br />

of process wastages and rejections <strong>in</strong><br />

but they possess flower-like grace.<br />

They have a very charm<strong>in</strong>g and<br />

<strong>in</strong>nocent face. A mere smile of theirs<br />

is enough to greet the guest. Their<br />

family life is not so happy as a girl is<br />

married to several husbands at a time<br />

Her s<strong>in</strong>gle heart is divided amongst<br />

many husband caus<strong>in</strong>g constant<br />

mental agony. Whenever -a brother<br />

marries a girl, usually all the brothers<br />

share the same wife. In shar<strong>in</strong>g a<br />

common wife, they believe that their<br />

house-hold land and property will not<br />

be divided amongst the brothers and<br />

<strong>in</strong> do<strong>in</strong>g they will rema<strong>in</strong> united.<br />

Generally a Lam a boy marries the<br />

daughter of his maternal uncle. If there<br />

is no issue, the groom will wait for the<br />

birth of a baby bride. They marry the<br />

girls irrespective of difference <strong>in</strong> age<br />

which is no bar for settlement of a<br />

marriage <strong>in</strong> their society. The boys<br />

and the girls are free and <strong>in</strong>dependent<br />

by nature. They do work accord<strong>in</strong>g to<br />

their own sweet will. The parents do<br />

not <strong>in</strong>terfere with their work. Most of<br />

the children of the family ma<strong>in</strong>ta<strong>in</strong><br />

their own poultry. The <strong>in</strong>come derived<br />

from such efforts is spent to fulfill their<br />

own desire.<br />

When a girl atta<strong>in</strong>s puberty she<br />

is provided with a <strong>in</strong>dependent<br />

accommodation. She keeps her<br />

bed surpris<strong>in</strong>gly neat and clean and<br />

decorates her room with utmost<br />

care. The Lama girls are very fond<br />

of photographs and hair ribbons.<br />

They have different k<strong>in</strong>ds of photos<br />

(PIB Features)<br />

-S. N. Ram Sharma<br />

and colorful ribbons <strong>in</strong> their private<br />

apartment. Though they are allowed<br />

to ma<strong>in</strong>ta<strong>in</strong> their privacy, the parents<br />

keep a close watch on the girls<br />

concerned.<br />

The Lama people are good<br />

farmers. They are the only tribe on<br />

high-hills who plough lands that do<br />

wet cultivation. They produce rice,<br />

maize, wheat’ barley, chilies, and<br />

different k<strong>in</strong>ds of vegetables.<br />

They observe various festivals.<br />

The sangu festival is the most colorful<br />

festival of the Lamas. As soon as<br />

the paddy fields grow ripe the village<br />

youths go out for hunt<strong>in</strong>g with guns.<br />

At home the young girls start cook<strong>in</strong>g<br />

rice-bear and at a scheduled ate they<br />

offer puja to Gods. All their near and<br />

dear ones are usually <strong>in</strong>vited “on the<br />

occasion. All enjoy the sips of ricebear<br />

together to match the day the<br />

males and females s<strong>in</strong>g and dance<br />

to ether <strong>in</strong> a circle wear<strong>in</strong>g their best<br />

costumes.<br />

They speak a dialect, which is<br />

a blend<strong>in</strong>g of the Tibetan and the<br />

Miju-Mishmi dialect. Formerly the<br />

lamas were illiterate and dirty but<br />

now-a-days a new change of fresh<br />

air is blow<strong>in</strong>g over the lamas. They<br />

are becom<strong>in</strong>g more enlightened<br />

and alert. They have re-adopted<br />

Buddhism which they had forgotten<br />

earlier. Their children are gett<strong>in</strong>g<br />

education under proper guidance and<br />

gett<strong>in</strong>g ready to face the challenge of<br />

the new world.<br />

Female Condoms, Femidom<br />

Female condoms made their entry<br />

<strong>in</strong>to the Indian market through HLL<br />

Lifecare Ltd. While sales are slow among<br />

urban women, the female condom is<br />

be<strong>in</strong>g promoted by <strong>gov</strong>ernment bodies<br />

and NGOs among sex workers as<br />

protection aga<strong>in</strong>st HIV/AIDS. Dr. M.<br />

Ayyappan noted, “Currently, we are<br />

manufactur<strong>in</strong>g around three million<br />

female condoms and 1,600 million<br />

male condoms annually for the Indian<br />

and overseas markets. The difference<br />

<strong>in</strong> numbers says it all.” He attributes<br />

the reason to conservative m<strong>in</strong>dsets,<br />

ignorance about the product and<br />

accessibility. S<strong>in</strong>ce the Indian market<br />

is slow to accept the production, HLL<br />

took a decade to make the male condom<br />

as popular as it is now. Dr.Ayyappan<br />

is confident that the female condom<br />

too will beg<strong>in</strong> to make an impact <strong>in</strong><br />

the right direction <strong>in</strong> a matter of years.<br />

HLL plans to <strong>in</strong>troduce the natural latex<br />

based female condom by mid 2013 <strong>in</strong><br />

the market.<br />

The female condom was <strong>in</strong>vented<br />

by Dr. Lasse Hessel, a Danish physician<br />

<strong>in</strong> the 1980s. The first generation<br />

FC1 female condom was made from<br />

polyurethane. First <strong>in</strong>troduced <strong>in</strong> the<br />

market <strong>in</strong> the n<strong>in</strong>eties, the Femidom or<br />

female condom came at a time when<br />

people were wak<strong>in</strong>g up to the scary<br />

reality of AIDS.<br />

Condoms are still considered a<br />

men’s product. At the global level the<br />

female condom was quick to catch<br />

people’s attention, thanks to aggressive<br />

market<strong>in</strong>g techniques. This product<br />

received mixed reviews from different<br />

quarters of the world. Gett<strong>in</strong>g used<br />

to the idea of wear<strong>in</strong>g a condom, for<br />

most women, was not worth the effort.<br />

Slowly, <strong>in</strong> other countries, the Femidom<br />

made a difference <strong>in</strong> the lives of women<br />

who did not have a say <strong>in</strong> their sexual<br />

health before the product came <strong>in</strong>to<br />

their lives. Women were us<strong>in</strong>g it to<br />

protect themselves aga<strong>in</strong>st partners who<br />

refused to wear condoms.<br />

Most people are still unaware of<br />

female condom or do not have access<br />

to it. Reports state that the demand<br />

though has come from unexpected<br />

quarters like develop<strong>in</strong>g countries where<br />

women felt empowered with choice to<br />

use protection.<br />

The next version, FC2, was made<br />

from synthetic nitrile at a reduced cost.<br />

The World Health organization (WHO)<br />

approved the FC2 for purchase by<br />

U.N.agencies <strong>in</strong> develop<strong>in</strong>g countries<br />

where the Femidom played a strong<br />

role <strong>in</strong> sex education programmesfor<br />

women.<br />

From an acceptability study<br />

conducted by H<strong>in</strong>dustan Latex Family<br />

Plann<strong>in</strong>g Promotion Trust (HLFPPT)<br />

<strong>in</strong> Andhra Pradesh, Kerala and<br />

Maharashtra, it was found that people<br />

were open to the idea of us<strong>in</strong>g female<br />

condom. More than 90,000 female<br />

condoms were marketed <strong>in</strong> Andhra<br />

Pradesh through a social market<strong>in</strong>g<br />

programme <strong>in</strong> 2006. The follow<strong>in</strong>g<br />

year, a similar plan was executed <strong>in</strong><br />

Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Tamil<br />

Nadu, Gujarat, Maharashtra and<br />

West Bengal. In 2008, National AIDS<br />

Control Organization (NACO) decided<br />

to make female condom available to sex<br />

workers <strong>in</strong> Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu,<br />

Maharashtra and West Bengal. FC2<br />

female condom gives women control<br />

and choice over their own sexual health<br />

as women can protect themselves when<br />

their partner does not want to use a<br />

male condom. Women <strong>in</strong> urban and<br />

rural areas <strong>in</strong> India have not started<br />

us<strong>in</strong>g Femidom to complement already<br />

exist<strong>in</strong>g family plann<strong>in</strong>g and HIV/AIDS<br />

programm<strong>in</strong>g.<br />

HLL has its female condom<br />

assembl<strong>in</strong>g facility at Coch<strong>in</strong> Special<br />

Economic Zone (CSE), Kakkanad.<br />

“Currently the annual capacity of Kochi<br />

factory is 7.5 million pieces. We will be<br />

add<strong>in</strong>g another 25 million by the end of<br />

this year. Apart from supply<strong>in</strong>g female<br />

condoms to national programmes under<br />

the m<strong>in</strong>istry of health and family welfare,<br />

we also export female condoms to be<br />

South Asian Association of Regional<br />

Co-operation (SAARC) markets”, said<br />

Dr. M. Ayyappan. “Female condoms<br />

have the potential to revolutionize safer<br />

sex for diverse populations. They<br />

are also the only women - <strong>in</strong>itiated<br />

method available today that offers dual<br />

protection from un<strong>in</strong>tended pregnancy<br />

and sexually transmitted <strong>in</strong>fections<br />

<strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g HIV”, Dr. Ayyappan expla<strong>in</strong>ed.<br />

Global female condom day is be<strong>in</strong>g<br />

observed on September 12 every year.<br />

HLL produces female condom under the<br />

brand name “Velvet”.<br />
