Abstract:

According to World Drug Report, an estimated 250 million people between the ages of 15 and 64 had used at least one substance in 2014. Approximately 29million people are suffering with substance use disorder with 207,000 deaths in 2014 [1] . In the NHS, Cannabis (3%) and opioids (0.7%) were the commonest illicit substances prevalent in India. Data from Drug Abuse Monitoring Survey observes that cannabis (11.6%), heroin (11%), opium (8.6%) and other opiates (6.3%) constitute the majority of drug use by treatment seekers other than alcohol (43.9%) in India [2] . Alcohol and non–medicinal use of psychoactive substance use has become a matter of serious concern in Sikkim. From unofficial estimates alcohol use has traditionally been prevalent among Sikkim’s population which is reflected in the national surveys. In Sikkim, prevalence of licit substance (tobacco & Alcohol) use is more common than the use of illicit substances. NFHS-3 has revealed a very high prevalence of current alcohol use at 45%% and 19% for males and females respectively in Sikkim. These figures are much higher than the national average of 32% and 2% in males and females. There is an increase in trend towards current alcohol use in particular from NFHS-2 to NFHS-3 which may be due to greater availability, accessibility, affordability, and social acceptability [3,4] . Though Sikkim was declared a smoke free state, the Global Adult Tobacco Survey (GATS India 2010) reported the overall prevalence of current tobacco use was 42% higher than the national average of 35% [5] . However, there is a growing recognition that newer substances are becoming popular among the younger generation. Epidemiological data on illicit substances is scarce and it is hard to draw any conclusion about the recent trends in illicit substance use pattern in Sikkim.

Abstract:

The State of Sikkim has been witnessing increasing trend in suicide rate in last decade. Studies examining an extent, pattern and causes of suicide in Sikkim are limited and prevalent notion regarding causes of suicide are mostly based on descriptive narration of an individual suicide cases that usually promotes socio-economic factors and drug use disorders. An attempt has been made in this article to examine current trend of suicide in Sikkim, assessed risk factors by analysing published and unpublished available research studies, and highlight suicide prevention responses by East Sikkim.

Abstract:

Mental illnesses affect women and man equally but differently with some mental illness more common in women [1,2] . Anxiety, depression, eating disorders, deliberate self harm, and other neurotic disorders are more prevalent among women owing to different roles and responsibilities in Society [2,3] . One in five women suffers with mental health problems in a lifetime. Women’s vulnerability to mental health problems are heightened during pregnancy and immediate postpartum period with 60 to 80 percent of mothers feels “baby blues.” About 1 in 10 mothers may experience more serious post-partum depression brought about by hormonal changes [4] .

Abstract:

Sacred groves are small forest patches conserved by local people through socio-religious and historical beliefs. Gadi Central Pandam is one of the oldest sacred groves and protected more than 300 years due to its various religious, historical and archaeological significances. It is situated in the Sumin Resrve Forest of Rangpo Block of East Sikkim District. The sacred grove harbors a wide variety of plant species. This grove is facing serious threats due to various developmental activities. Therefore, it is suggested here to create awareness among the native people about the traditional values of this sacred grove and environmental benefits to the region and better sustenance of mankind by conserving the biodiversity of the region. The native people should also be encouraged to involve actively in protection and sustainable conservation managements of this grove for posterity.

Abstract:

North East India is blessed with abundant tourism resources, which are unique in their own way. The flora and fauna of this region is regarded as one of the seven most bio-diverse regions of the world. Among the States in this region, Sikkim is quite a popular destination with both the domestic and international tourists. It is perhaps the only state, where one can travel 3500 meters above the sea-level in a space of 160 km. Sikkim is thus a trekker‟s paradise, offering a unique opportunity to trek to Mt. Kangchen-Dzonga. The gateway to this mountain is a small village called Yuksam in South Sikkim. Trends reveal that Yuksam is in the developmental stage of increasing growth of tourist influx, which would also have implications on the infrastructure, environment, natural resources, culture and eco-tourism of this village. So this paper aims to study how tourism in Sikkim, Yuksam in particular, can be sustained.

Abstract:

Citrus reticulata is an important cash crop for the farmers in the Sikkim and Darjeeling Himalayas, India. The lack of knowledge of its diversity has only resulted in the lack of uniformity in the fruit quality. It has become imperative to identify superior varieties that meet the demands of the market to improve the citrus industry. Hence, a total of 105 accessions of mandarin were collected randomly from different locations to assess the morphological diversity using cluster analysis and DIVA-GIS. The orchards were randomly visited in each district of the state of Sikkim and two hilly districts of the state of West Bengal (WB). A sample tree was selected from each orchard and the quantitative and qualitative characters of its leaves, flowers, and fruits were measured. A significant variation was observed in the quantitative characters with a positive correlation between fruit weight and length, fruit diameter and weight, total soluble solids (TSS) /acidity and fruit diameter. The first 6 components of Principal component analysis (PCA) exhibited 69.34% of the total variation. DIVA-GIS showed the highest diversity index for fruit weight, fruit diameter and TSS/acidity in East district, Sikkim. The highest coefficient variation for fruit diameter was observed in the East district and Darjeeling district, WB and TSS/acidity and fruit weight in East district. The dendrogram generated divided the accessions into two major clusters. The grid maps generated identified diverse accessions in the East district and Darjeeling district, which can be a source of superior germplasm

Abstract:

In the East Sikkim district of India, a field survey revealed the presence of 49 distinct bryophyte taxa, with a significant representation from the Pottiaceae, Leucobryaceae, and Grimmiaceae families. Remarkably, this survey contributes 12 taxa as novel records for Sikkim. Among the bryophytes catalogued, 45 belong to the mosses, while four are liverworts, collectively spanning 18 families, which include 15 moss families and three liverwort families. The predominant growth forms observed are characterized by cushions, mats, or turfs, underscoring the adaptability of these bryophytes to diverse substrates and microenvironments. These bryophytes are recognized for their resilience in challenging environmental conditions, making them valuable indicators of extreme climate and the geological composition, including calcium rocks and gneiss, found in the area.

Abstract:

Among the extreme weather events, hailstorm in recent past caused significant damage of large cardamom crop in Sikkim. In high altitude area of Sikkim, hailstorms generally occurrs in the month of March and April and caused severe damage to large cardamom plantations. In this paper, a detailed account of incidence of hailstorm damage and strategies to minimize its effects on large cardamom plantations are discussed. Frequency distribution of hailstorm showed that during last eight years hailstorm in Pangthang area of Sikkim occurred between 1427 to 1532 hrs and it continued for around 37 minutes on average. However, in Kabi area of North Sikkim hailstorm generally occurs during 1621 to 1628 hrs and it continues for around 21.25 minutes. Hailstorms varied in size from 0.5 to 1.0 cm in diameter. Damage caused by the hailstorms on plant tissue depends mainly on its size, duration of the storm event and the condition of the plant tissue when the injury occurs. Large cardamom being a broad leaved plant, the lamina tears parallel to the veins. Physical damage to floral parts of large cardamom plants due to hailstorm occurred at the flowering stage and depending on the extent of damage the yield of the plant was also affected in the subsequent crop season. Frequent hail episodes are identified and measures to minimize the damage of large cardamom plantations are discussed. The information generated in this study was found to be very useful in minimizing large cardamom crop loss through operational agromet services launched by the India Meteorological Department/Ministry of Earth Sciences in collaboration with the Agromet Field Units (AMFUs) located at Gangtok and ICAR-NOFRI, Tadong through Krishi Vigyan Kendra-East Sikkim, Ranipool.

Abstract:

Abstract: Tourism destinations often are dependent on natural and cultural/heritage resources to form their attractions bases, which are linked to the economic vitality of local communities. Tourism industry can generate income and holistic development of a region. Rural tourism provides an economic incentive to the local people who are residing in these regions. It also adds an ethnic flavor to the consumer’s (tourist) taste. Silk Route in Sikkim is popularly known as ‘Silk Route” in Sikkim tourism map. It is one of the best rural tourist destinations of Sikkim. The silk route is very popular among the tourists. The landscape is beautiful and wonderfully thrilling. The lush greenery, panoramic view of hills and the simplicity of the indigenous inhabitants attracts the urban tourists to this place. The paper attempts an empirical presentation addressing the concept of rural tourism, which is an emerging perception on tourism introduced recently into the Indian tourism sector. This paper try to explore the potentiality as a rural tourist destination, and how such rural or Ecotourism can be an instrument to empower indigenous communities in a particular area and provide community development through economic and social benefits to the local communities for their well-being. This finding can be exemplified elsewhere as an approach on sustainable development of rural tourism through the community participation and management practiced at village level.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND Globus Pharyngeus, previously known as Globus hystericus, is a persistent or intermittent non-painful sensation of a lump or foreign body in the throat of indeterminate origin. It is a commonly encountered clinical condition seen in ear, nose and throat Outpatient Department (ENT OPD). It is usually long-lasting, difficult to treat and has a tendency to recur. It is a common disorder and constitutes about 4 - 5 % of all new ENT referrals with a slight female preponderance. Sikkim is second smallest state in India with a total population of 6.1 lakhs. It is a mountainous region with subtropical climate. Central Referral Hospital is the only Medical College in the state and takes care of the patients from all over the state. This study was conducted to determine the prevalence of globus pharyngeus among patients attending ENT OPD. METHODS This was a descriptive cross-sectional study done in the ENT Outpatient Department (OPD) of Central Referral Hospital, Gangtok, Sikkim among patients attending directly or referred from the government health sectors with complaints of globus symptoms in the throat. Data was entered in Microsoft Excel 16.4 version and used for statistical purposes. RESULTS The total burden of the disease was found to be 0.6 % with 73.77 % of the patients with globus positive for H. pylori infection and 36 % of them positive for laryngopharyngeal reflex (LPR). CONCLUSIONS The number of globus cases found in this study (0.6 %) was comparatively less as compared to various studies done globally (4 - 5 %). The low number of cases determined in this study may be due to the bias of selection of the study population from the only available private tertiary care centre in the state.

Abstract:

The genus Toccolosida Walker, 1863 is a member of the Pyralini tribe of the subfamily Pyralinae in the family Pyralidae. It was described as a monotypic genus for Toccolosida rubriceps Walker, 1863 from Sikkim. Snellen (1890, 1892) described two additional species of Toccolosida, T. pallifrons Snellen, 1890 from Sikkim and T. bilinealis Snellen, 1892 from Indonesia and Java. Hampson (1896) erected a new genus Proteinia Hampson, 1896 for T. pallifrons. In 1899, Snellen described another species, T. subolivalis Snellen, 1899 from Indonesia, Sumatra and Padang. Robinson et al. (1994) included two species, T. rubriceps and T. bilinealis, in their account on South East Asian moths and stated that Toccolosida contains 8+ [described as well as undescribed] species from the Indo-Australian region and 6+ species from South East Asia. However, at present the valid Toccolosida species are only three: T. rubriceps, T. bilinealis and T. subolivalis, whereas pallifrons is currently placed in Proteinia (Nuss et al. 2003–2019; pers. comm.

Abstract:

Objective: The research was multifaceted - the goal was dual folded: first, to establish how well people perceive online banking and the services they provide. The second area covered in the study was the intention to participate in electronic banking services. Theoretical Framework: The valuable impact of digitalization of banks on the rationalization of the local financial system. Along with this, financial literacy was highlighted in both the domestic industry and the international market which caused sustainable development. Method: The data was collected by administering a structured free format survey to the customers of banks in a district of Sikkim (East region) Convenience sampling was the approach undertaken for selecting respondents. Results & Discussion: The results and discussion were shown to have increased digital banking in recent times as reflected in the country. This is the second major rationale as to why cyber thieves should not be scared of e-banking since it appears more secure than traditional banking. Also, it has been seen that digital banks provide more diverse outlets in terms of loans and a wide spectrum of banking services. An efficient IT infrastructure and working devices fit the bill to make the financial market function correctly. Implications: This data can be used to suggest that in the future, financial literacy programs can be of maximum help to financial institutions thus increasing the frequency of digital banking. Originality: The uniqueness of this research lies in its analysis of the level of awareness and a high tendency of digital banking in a few municipalities which are situated in East Sikkim. Also, it recommends strategies like educational programs that are gender-sensitive and that contribute to a more resilient and sustainable digital banking ecosystem.

Abstract:

Sporotrichosis caused by the fungus Sporothrix schenckii has been widely reported from the northern Himalayan belt and the north eastern region of India. Three autochthonous cases of lymphocutaneous sporotrichosis from east and south districts of Sikkim are reported. Fluid aspirate from the nodulo-ulcerative lesions were sent for cytology and fungal culture. S. schenckii was isolated on culture and cytological examination in all three cases showed granulomatous reaction. Thermal dimorphism was demonstrated and animal pathogenicity testing was performed. Saturated solution of potassium iodide was used for treatment and the last case was treated with itraconazole and potassium iodide. Awareness of this disease and an extensive environmental study is required to understand the actual burden of this disease.

Abstract:

Calcaneus is the largest tarsal bone of the foot and forms the posterior prominence of the heel. The calcaneus articulates with the talus superiorly at the subtalar joint. The subtalar joint is responsible for the inversion and eversion. There are three facets over upper side of talocalcaneal joint: anterior talar facet, middle and posterior. There are considerable variations in the number and arrangement of these facets. A total of 100 dry adult human calcanei were obtained irrespective of age and sex and evaluated for the pattern of talar articulating facets and measurements were made with digital vernier calliper of 0.01 mm accuracy at anatomy laboratory of Sikkim Manipal Institute of Medical Sciences, Sikkim. The study revealed that type-A was 31%, type-B was 5%, type-C was 62% and type-D was 2%. In our study type-C was followed by type-A. These morphological variations on the superior surface of the sustentaculum tali may predispose people to joint instability, ligamentous laxity and the development of arthritic changes in the subtalar joint.

Abstract:

Landslides are a significant natural disaster causing damage to many mountainous regions worldwide including the Indian Himalayan region. In the East Sikkim district of the Eastern Himalayas, the most used bivariate frequency ratio (FR) model was utilized with high-resolution satellite imagery to understand the susceptibility of the region to landslides. Conditioning factors such as slope aspect, slope angle, slope curvature, drainage density, land use and land cover (LULC), normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), lithology, and geomorphology were considered in the analysis. LULC is the most crucial factor contributing to landslide susceptibility with a normalized FR value of 14.1. Slope and geomorphology followed closely with values of 12.5 and 11.8 respectively. In contrast, the least important factors were slope aspect and lithology with values of 8.7 and 9.3 respectively. These results can be used to prioritize landslide conditioning factors (LCF) and generate a final landslide susceptibility map (LSM). By adding the values of all LCFs, a landslide susceptibility index was obtained, and the LSM was zoned into high, medium, and low susceptibility classes covering 23.4%, 44.4%, and 32.2% of the study area respectively. The validity of the method used was confirmed using a receiver operating characteristic curve which yielded an accuracy of 78%. The findings highlight the importance of LULC, slope, and geomorphology as critical factors in landslide susceptibility in the East Sikkim district of the Eastern Himalayas.

Abstract:

Sikkim is a State in the North-Eastern region of India. Being a part of the Himalayan Series, movement in this region is difficult as compared to the plains of the country. This research work tries to identify the quality of present commuter services provided by unorganized private taxi operators. The author used the time-tested SERVQUAL model to measure the expectation and perception of the passengers towards these services. The GAP score identified reflected that the local passengers are almost happy with the available services. However, the research indicates that further research on the demography needs to be done to understand the expectations and perception of the local passengers.

Abstract:

The dairy sector is a women-centric endeavor. It is an instrument for elevating the vulnerable section of society, particularly the farm women. Farm women contribute diligently towards dairy activities. The study was conducted in the East district of Sikkim in the year 2021. A simple random technique was used for selecting four blocks, five villages from each block, and ten respondents from each village were randomly selected. A personal interview schedule was used for the collection of data. Data were collected from 200 dairy farm women owning at least one dairy cattle. The study analyzes the feedback of dairy farm women based on five aspects, i.e., economical, technical, administrative, information networking, and independent decision-making. The result revealed that the high cost of concentrate, feed, and fodder, delayed service of animal health officials, lack of financial support from the government, irregular information on government schemes on dairy, and non-availability of financial support to women farmers were some of the major feedbacks given by the respondents.

Abstract:

Surveys were conducted in 24 villages of 4 districts of Nagaland, i.e. Kohima, Phek, Zuhneboto and Dimapur to characterise Tho-Tho cattle of Nagaland. A total of 242 cattle of different age and sex including 186 Tho-Tho and 56 desi/non-descript were recorded for physical and ten different morphometric traits. To know management and performance of Tho-Tho cattle, 76 farmers were interviewed form these districts. It was observed that Tho-Tho cattle was mainly reared for beef as people preferred beef over pork. Cattle population of the state showed sharp decline of 51% during the years 2007–2012 and needs immediate attention. Based on different physical and morphometric traits, it may be concluded Tho-Tho cattle are distinct as compared to indigenous cattle of Tripura, Mizoram, Manipur and Siri of Sikkim. Tho-Tho cattle were larger in size as compared of desi/non descript cattle of the state. Management and performance was more or less similar in the whole north-east region i.e extensive system of management. Multi-variate canonical discriminate analysis using different morphometric traits of indigenous cattle of Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland, Sikkim (Siri) and Tripura showed that Siri (Sikkim) and Tho-Tho (Nagaland) were significantly different than other indigenous cattle of the region and it was supported by physical traits also. Therefore, it is recommended that Tho-Tho cattle population may be registered as distinct cattle breed from Nagaland.
