Abstract:

The Tripuri tribe from the state of Tripura constitutes around 50 percent of the total tribal population and can be found in all eight districts of the state. The tribe follows its own culture and tradition in terms of marriage and other customary practices. This study investigates the role of gender in inheritance of property among the Tripuri tribe and how Tripuri women are excluded from ownership of property. It also attempts to discover how property ownership affects their income and position in the household. The study has been conducted in the districts of West Tripura and Dhalai. Focus Group Discussion and interview schedules are employed as methods for collection of data. Results show that while 20 out of 54 married women from rural areas of West Tripura have inherited property, only 2 out of 13 married women have inherited property in the urban area. In comparison with West Tripura, Dhalai features a low ratio among women in inheriting property (only 4 out of 38 married women). A few causes include low level of literacy, slow urbanization and less inter-community marriages. The reasons for not inheriting property include: a woman failing to live up to the concept of a ‘good sister’ in the brother’s eyes, son needs property to care for parents, cost of marriage is borne by brother or parents so no right to claim, and to avoid unnecessary conflict in the family. In this manner, societal perceptions prevent women from claiming the legitimate share of their ancestral property.

Abstract:

Introduction. Russian-Indian Anthropological expedition was organized in 2019 by Paleoethnology Research Center (Russia), Timiryazev State Museum of Biology (Russia) and Department of Anthropology University of Calcutta (India). The goal was to examine the peoples of Tripura state, North-East India. Data and methods. About 350 individuals from eight different locations next to Agartala were examined. Currently there are 19 tribes in Tripura, Tripuri being one of them. The most common Tripuri’s surname is Debbarma. During the research 254 Debbarmas were examined, among them 106 individuals were children and teenagers (58 male and 48 female), and 148 individuals were older than 17 years (76 male and 72 female). The Russian-Indian Anthropological expedition research consisted of a complex study of Tripuri including morphology of body, head and face, dermatoglyphics, and dental anthropology. Social questionnaire and anthropological photo were also obligatory. All data was hold according to bioethics and the Privacy law. For further examination the data was depersonificated. Results. During the survey, basic information about the individual, including tribal affiliation, was clarified. An extended questionnaire made it possible to study many aspects of social relationships and build a population-genetic network. According to somatometric characteristics, tripuri males from the Debbarma family have an average body length (162.1 cm), relatively broad shoulders and an average pelvic width. A cephalometric study of 19 features was carried out. The studied group can be characterized as brachycephalic, leptoprosopic according to the morphological facial index and mesorrhine according to the nasal index. The zygomatic diameter is large, and the mandibular diameter is above average (on the Indian scale of variability). A detailed fixation of cephaloscopic features in children and adults was carried out, which made it possible to describe tripuri as representatives of a large Asian-American branch (race) of humanity. According to the odontological program, 293 people were examined, 221 of which were tripuri. Anthropological photo-fixation was carried out, and based on these materials the first composite tripuri portraits were compiled, published in this article. Conclusion. In the second season of the Russian-Indian anthropological expedition, data were collected on one of the insufficiently studied peoples of Northeast India – the Tripuri tribe. The group was investigated according to the maximum number of anthropological methods available in the field. For the first time, somatometric, cephalometric and cephaloscopic materials have been obtained and preliminary presented.

Abstract:

Abstract: The tropical region, which has the highest macrofungi diversity, has not been fully exploited instead of this is an important component of the global diversity. However, no work has been carried out to assess such diversity in Tripura. Since tropical forests are diverse in plant composition and structure, hence the objective of this study was to explore the mushroom species richness in Tripura, Northeast India with the aim of producing a checklist along with their present geographical distributions, key identification characters and valid photographs. Field surveys and collection of mushrooms were carried out in Tripura covering different sites during 2015–2018. Data on macrofungal diversity, distribution patterns and taxonomic identification were analyzed. A total of 217 wild mushrooms were documented from eight districts of Tripura, northeastern India. Out of 217 samples, 202 samples were identified up to the genus level, 125 samples were identified up to the species level. A total of 76 genera belonging to 60 families and 25 orders were classified in this ecological study. The majority of macrofungi belong to the family Polyporaceae (30 nos), and order Agaricales (103 specimens). The wild macrofungi were collected from 56 sites of eight districts of this state and the maximum macrofungi diversity was recorded from Sepahijala District. Present findings also observed that the maximum wild fungi of this state grow on different plant parts. This is the preliminary study on documentation of wild macrofungi from eight districts of Tripura, northeastern India and it will be used as a reference database of wild mushrooms of this state, which will also help in future research work in different fields.

Abstract:

Land use is the human utilization for money, private, recreational, conservational and administrative purposes. The idea of land use is firmly interwoven with human network advancement. Examples of human turn of events and land use have molded the earth legitimately and internationally since ancient occasions. Current improvement designs, along with highlights of the common habitat and the outcomes of past advancement exercises, decide future advancement openings, and furthermore the requirement for rebuilding or upgrade of natural assets. North-east India is the abode of highly endemic flora and fauna preserving the pristine environment with little human interference until recent times. However, for past two decades a drastic change in the land use pattern in the region has been observed which may threaten the fragile ecological balance of the region. Tripura, known as one of the seven sisters, is a bamboo resource and second largest rubber producer in India. Tripura has the highest number of primate species found in any Indian state. However, as compared to its other sisters, the state is economically backward. The land use of the state is undergoing rapid change which is facilitated to a great extent by rapidly increasing population. The present paper deals with the changing land use of Tripura especially in the last two and a half decades. The objective of the study is to analyse the changing land use of the state in general and changes in agricultural and non-agricultural land use in particular based upon the data collected from secondary sources like Statistical Abstract of Tripura, Population Tables of Census 1991, 2001 and 2011 along with the information collected from various government websites.

Abstract:

Region wetness variability was assessed across the Tripura state of North east India (1971 to 2016). Multiple Change point detection tests confirmed the high degree of spatiotemporal variability for the identified shifts in wetness pattern over study period. The periodicity of different wetness time-series varied between 2-128 months for the calculated SPI time scales over variable time series for the selected rain gauge stations. The periodicity pattern became more prominent with an increasing temporal domain of calculated SPI time series. Hierarchical clustering and Principle component analysis (PCA) accounted for the variability in randomness, trend and periodicity of all the SPI time series. Our present study identified the homogeneous clusters of raingauge stations suitable for real-time drought monitoring and reversible use of missing dataset on rainfall in near future across the Tripura state.

Abstract:

Background- With the changing epidemiology, scrub typhus is now among the commonest causes of AFI in India and a high suspicion should be maintained, and an early diagnosis and promt management is warranted to prevent complications. Objective - Clinical characteristics, management practices and in-hospital outcomes of scrub typhus patients. Methods- a Cross-sectional retrospective study was conducted among 110 scrub typhus patients attending Agartala Government Medical College and GB Pant Hospital, a tertiary care centre of Tripura in last one year period. Their clinical profile, laboratory studies and management has been recorded and data has been evaluated with SPSS 21.0 for windows with p- value <0.05. Results- the commonest presenting symptoms of scrub typhus are high-grade fever with chills , headache and it most commonly effects farmers. Most commonly effected age group was 40-50 years of age. Most of the patients were from West Tripura followed by Khowai Tripura and least patients were from North Tripura. Predominately it occured in September, October and November i.e. in post monsoon period. The pathognomonic eschar was present in 43% patients and rarest presentation was paraparesis (0.9%). Lymphadenopathy (9%), neck rigidity (6%), hepatomegaly (10%), splenomegaly (4%), acute respiratory distress syndrome was seen in 14% patients. Hepatic involvement was the most common complication seen in our study (42%). Anemia was present in 25% and thrombocytopenia was present in 22% patients. Subside of fever to doxycycline injection seen in 73% on day1 and 84% on day2. 19% Patient required icu admission. 9% developed ARDS and 6% required ET tube intubation and mechanical ventilation. 6% developed hypotension requiring inotropic support. 4% developed severe thrombocytopenia(<10,000) required platelet transfusion. 11% developed acute kidney injury requiring haemodialysis. Survival rate were 93% and mortality 7%. In conclusion, scrub typhus became the leading infectious cause of acute febrile illness in North eastern state, Tripura. A high suspicion should be maintained, and an early diagnosis and promt management is warranted to prevent mortality and morbidity of patients.

Abstract:

Indian democracy allows citizens to choose their ruler by using their democratic rights of Universal Adult Franchise. However, they all cannot freely choose their representative due to many obligations from their leaders, community, and groups to which they belong. The study of electoral politics helps us to understand determinants of the voting behaviour of individual or community. The participation of religious minorities in electoral politics increases significantly, elections after elections, and their share in governance has increased only marginally. Among the Minorities, Muslims are the vulnerable section of Society and under-represented in India's legislative bodies and political process and the state of Tripura. Tracing the position of Muslim minorities in the electoral politics of Tripura, the findings observe that Muslims are politically less aware due to many socio-economic problems and the terrible intention of some political parties for using Muslims as vote bank without concerning the development of the communities. In this background, the present study is an attempt to understand the role of Muslim Minorities in the electoral politics of Tripura. It also examines the issues and factors that influence the Muslims' political behaviour during elections in Tripura.

Abstract:

Rainfall in India has very high temporal and spatial variability. The rainfall variability affects the livelihood and food habits of people from different regions. In this study, the rainfall trends in two stations in the north-eastern state of Tripura, namely Agartala and Kailashahar have been studied for the period 1955-2017. The state experiences an annual mean of more than 2000 mm of rainfall, out of which, about 60% occurs during the monsoon season and about 30% in pre-monsoon. An attempt has been made to analyze the trends in seasonal and annual rainfall, rainy days and heavy rainfall in the two stations, during the same period.Non-parametric Mann-Kendall test has been used to find out the significance of these trends. Both increasing and decreasing trends are observed over the two stations. Increasing trends in rainfall, rainy days and heavy rainfall are found at Agartala during pre-monsoon season and decreasing trends in all other seasons and at annual scale. At Kailashahar, rainfall amount (rainy days & heavy rainfall) is found to be increasing during pre-monsoon and monsoon seasons (pre-monsoon season). At annual scale also, rainfall and rainy days show increasing trends at Kailashahar. The parameters are showing decreasing trends during all other seasons at the station. Rainy days over Agartala show a significantly decreasing trend in monsoon, whereas no other trend is found to be significant over both the stations.

Abstract:

Lentil (Lens culinaris Medic.) can be a potential crop to intensify the rice (Oryza sativa L.) fallow land of Tripura to meet out the pulses requirement of the state. Thus, five lentil varieties, i.e. HUL-57, WBL-77, WBL-58, PL-06 and NDL-1 were demonstrated under three establishment methods, i.e. minimum till (MT), no-till (NT) and paira cropping (PC) on 75 farmers’ field at Moracherra, Dhalai, Tripura during winter seasons of 2012–14 in a participatory mode to gear up the pulse production in the state. Study revealed that the cultivation of lentil under MT and NT systems resulted in more number of branches/plant, pods/plant, seeds/pod and seed yield than those planted under PC. Hence, the farmers planted lentil under MT obtained more gross and net returns than those planted lentil under NT and PC. However, benefit to cost (B:C) ratio was significantly higher under PC than the other establishment methods. Lentil variety HUL-57 outperformed other varieties with respect to number of branches/plant, pods/plant, seeds/pod, seed yield and also recorded the highest gross and net returns and B:C ratio followed by WBL-77, WBL-58. Therefore, study recommended the cultivation of lentil varieties HUL-57, WBL-77 and WBL-58 under minimum tillage system for intensifying the rice fallows of Tripura to boost up the pulses production in the state.

Abstract:

Liver can be affected by various virus like Hepatitis A, B, C, D, E. Hepatitiss B and C are blood borne and can cause chronic complications leading to chronic liver disease, cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. In 1984 Taiwan launched first universal vaccination against Hepatitis B with plasma derived vaccine and they could reduce the burden significantly with in a short period. In 1987 recombinant DNA vaccine become available and hepatitis B vaccination became a target area but the the program did not received proper momentum. A science based social orbanisation, Hepatitis Foundation of Tripura started hepatitis B prevention movement at Tripura, a small state of North East Region of India in 2002. Gradually the program extended following various public heath method. This out of the box model could achieve a great success towards elimination of Hepatitis B. This Tripura model adopted by a social organisation, could act as template for HBV elimination.

Abstract:

The purpose of this study is to show the assimilated styles, motifs and designs of the Late Mediaeval Temple Architectures of Tripura. Like the other parts of India, Tripura has been an important centre of interaction of several cultures and traditions. The state is a home to numerous Tribes having different traditions and cultures. Therefore there is a wide variety in the life style and cultures of this state. Due to the friendly nature of the Manikya kings, the state was globally well connected. In the Royal courtyard, many scholars, artists, architects and other literates were invited for cultural exchanges at that time. We can see the influences of those sharing thoughts in the Architectures of this state. The temples constructed during the late 15th-16th century exhibits motifs influenced from the Indo-Islamic architectures, Bengal temples, Indo- Burmese style and other indigenous elements of this region. These temples reflect a synthesis of the arts, ideas, religious beliefs, values and the way of life during the Manikya ages.

Abstract:

Elite athletes’ psychological well-being is said to play a significant role in their competitive nervousness, taking into account factors like performance anxiety, fear of failing, and pre-game anxiety. Even while research on anxiety in sports has advanced significantly, there hasn’t been much attention paid to female elite football players in Manipur and Tripura. The purpose of the study is to study explore the complex relationship between anxiety and football performance of elite female players of Manipur and Tripura. Forty-two female athletes, aged 18-25, representing national tournaments for their respective states (21 from Manipur and 21 from Tripura), were purposively selected for the study. The Competitive State Anxiety Inventory-2 (CSAI-2) was employed to measure three dimensions of anxiety: somatic anxiety, cognitive anxiety, and self-confidence. Descriptive statistics and the Mann-Whitney U test were utilized for data analysis. Results revealed variations in anxiety levels between the two groups. Tripura Sports School exhibited higher somatic anxiety, while YWC Manipur displayed higher cognitive anxiety and self-confidence. The study suggests that differences in training facilities, competitive exposure, and regional disparities may contribute to the observed variations in anxiety levels. The findings underscore the importance of a holistic approach to athlete development, integrating mental health support with physical training. Coaches, sports organizations, and policymakers should consider these insights when designing programs and implementing mental health initiatives for female elite soccer players in diverse regional contexts.

Abstract:

The Government has put in place policies and programmes to alleviate urban poverty. Urban Local Bodies (ULBs) are the facilitators to reduce poverty in their respective areas. Urban Self-Help Groups (SHGs) aim at sustainable employment for their members. But they face many challenges during their day-to-day activities. The present study aims at identifying the issues, challenges or problems faced by SHGs in the urban areas of the State of Tripura. It relates to urban areas of Tripura, a small hilly state in the North-East India, for which 14 ULBs out of 20 have been selected from all the eight districts. Based on a sample size of 353 SHGs, the study shows that women SHG members have to face internal or organizational challenges and external ones in running SHGs having a cascading effect to their income level, which is not sufficient enough to cross the poverty line sustainably. The paper has also recommended certain solutions to the problems.

Abstract:

The tea industry is the second most organized industry after rubber in Tripura, India and is gravid with immense potential that can offer inclusive and sustainable growth to the state’s economy directly and indirectly. The industry went through a series of troubles ranging from insurgency to ethnic clashes over the last six decades. Despite the challenges, the Tripura Tea Development Corporation (TTDC) returned to the profit path in 2018. The marketing opportunities for the tea gardens have been rudimentary, depriving the tea growers of their due recognition and better returns on investments; however, TTDC’s Tripureswari brand of tea has successfully positioned itself with a strong appeal and quick acceptance by the masses. The public distribution supply chain supported by the co-operative societies helps reduce the shipment cost and ensures the availability of tea at affordable prices for common people. The purpose of this study was to explore the nuances of the tea industry in Tripura and to consider how re-engineering can turn this industry into a profit-making public sector. To understand the turnaround strategy of this research, the authors have used a mixed method approach where secondary data were collected, discussed, and gathered from interviews with area experts. The findings of this research indicate that the state-owned Tripura Tea Development Corporation Ltd. (TTDC) transformed itself through re-engineering the supply chain. Furthermore, coupling with branding exercises has instilled confidence, even among the small tea growers, thereby offering social security and inclusion. Further, TTDC has taken the socially excluded people under its ambit through plantation activities using the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA).

Abstract:

Recently abandoned hydrocarbon exploration sites generally support a smaller number of plants since there are few spaces for plants to grow and survive in the exploration site with all the concrete structure around and very few areas of soil to support vegetation. Metals are required by plants for their growth while a higher level can cause the plants to die. The study has been conducted to explore the concentration of metals in an abandoned hydrocarbon exploration site and their adjacent site of Tripura to determine the species diversity in the area with the metal concentration. The highest concentration of iron, chromium, and sulfur in the site were recorded in Chromolaena odorata, Urena lobata and Crotalaria pallida. All the plants collected have some levels of iron, chromium, and sulfur in their shoot as well as their roots. This study will be beneficial as the plants which have highest level of a particular metal can be used in future research to remediate the area of that metal. In this way, the cost of searching for plants to be used for phytoremediation experiment will also be reduced. The growth of plants in the abandoned hydrocarbon exploration sites will also help in reducing the contaminants of that sites.

Abstract:

Background: Spectrum of COVID-19 disease ranges from asymptomatic or mild symptomatic to life threatening cases. Population based sero-epidemiological studies are useful for assessing the magnitude of COVID-19 infection in a geographic area and it is helpful for planning control measures. Objectives: To estimate the sero-prevalence of SARS CoV-2 antibody in the general population of Tripura and to study the factors associated with it. Methodology: This community based cross-sectional study was conducted from 15th October to 14th November 2020 among 4800 subjects selected from the whole state of Tripura, India by probability proportionate to size sampling technique using 30 clusters. Electrochemiluminescence (eCLIA) based assay was used to test the serum samples for SARS-CoV-2 specific antibody. Data entry and analysis was performed using SPSS-25 for windows and sero-prevalence was expressed in percentages. Binary logistic regression model was used for predicting sero-positivity by including the significant factors associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection as found out by univariate analysis. Result: Sero-prevalence of SARS-CoV-2 antibody was found to be 34% among the general population of Tripura and it varied from 42.4% to 19.7% across different districts. Logistic regression model has identified, urban residency (OR: 1.21, 95% CI: 1.03-1.42), ethnic community (OR: 0.55, 95% CI: 0.48-0.64) and literacy (OR: 1.41, 95% CI: 1.13-1.77) as the independent risk factors for SARS-CoV-2 sero-positivity (p<0.05). Conclusion: Approximately one out of three residents of Tripura has already acquired the novel SARS CoV-2 infection. As the threshold required for achieving herd immunity against COVID-19 is not yet known, control measures need to be continued for preventing further spread of disease in the community.

Abstract:

Krishi Vigyan Kendra, South Tripura undertaken number of front line demonstration (FLD) to impart knowledge on different improved scientific technologies of non-traditional oilseeds and pulses crops like groundnut, lentil, red gram (arhar) and green gram (moong) during Kharif and Rabi season of 2009-10. To demonstrate the technology, six villages of South Tripura district of Tripura state were selected after assessment of the village through PRA method. Awareness programme were conducted in all villages. Farmers were trained on scientific cultivation practices of groundnut, lentil, red gram (Arhar) and green gram (Moong). Besides imparting training, printed leaflets on oilseed and pulses were distributed among the farmers. Field day programme was also conducted in the farmer’s field during field demonstration. Altogether 8 hectare area of oilseed and 5 ha area of pulses was covered under this programme. Improved varieties of groundnut (GG-20, GG-7 and TG-37A), lentil (WBL-58), green gram (HUM-16) and red gram (UPAS-120) were distributed among the farmers. Under this programme, most of the farmers obtained better yield of pulses and oilseeds as compared to local varieties and traditional method of cultivation. The yield percentage increased from 21.43 to 40 per cent in case of pulses, and 30.43 to 65.45 per cent in oilseed crops. Farmers earned up to Rs.31,100/ha by selling oilseed and up to Rs. 29,250/ha by selling pulses crops. The programme conducted by KVK, South Tripura succeeded to build the skills of farmers for expansion of pulses and oilseeds crops through number of knowledge management practices like group meetings, awareness programmes, trainings, demonstrations, field day, etc. Farmers of the neighbouring villages also participated in this programme and expressed their willingness to take up such crops under scientific methods in the next crop season.

Abstract:

Tripura, in India’s North-Eastern region, has experienced a remarkable increase in the area under rubber (Hevea brasiliensis) plantation, making it the country’s second-largest producer of rubber by the presence of 1.10 lakh rubber farmers cultivating 77400 ha of the area after Kerela. Its acceptance and spread among tribal smallholders, especially shifting farmers, has given them with an alternative source of income as well as economic stability and livelihood security for “Jhumias”. This study aims to analyze the socio-economic impacts and changes with the smallholder’s rubber plantation farmers in Tripura. A questionnaire survey was conducted for the study and 160 respondents participated from the districts Gomti and Sephaijala which has predominated rubber production. According to the study findings, the bulk of the questioned farmers’ principal source of income is from rubber plantations, around 95% of farmers who took the survey had less than 5 acres of the area under rubber plantation. More than 50% of farmers rely on rubber plantations, adding more than 75% to their monthly household income. About 83% of farmers had additional sources of income along with rubber. With the assistance of Tribal Welfare Department, Forest Department, and the implementation of suitable state policies and initiatives, smallholders adopted rubber plantation. Indirectly large-scale rubber plantation in Tripura contributes to the climate commitments of India towards carbon sequestration.

Abstract:

The main aim of the article is to understand the role of physiographical aspects and attributes in the infrastructural development of railway stations. Remote Sensing and Geographical Information System techniques have been used for delineating physiographic factors and data of social interfaces like passengers’ mobility collected from the railway stations. A robust Synthetic Indicator has been used to classify railway stations. The ordinal regression model has run between physio-environmental attributes and Robust Synthetic Indicator. Due to its unique valley and ridge topography and newly developed railway infrastructure, Phenomenological evidence is collected from Tripura, North-eastern state of India. Very few studies have been done addressing the development of railway stations with physio-environmental viability. The study reveals that the physical environment is a significant determining factor, but passenger mobility has a more decisive influence on the infrastructural development of railway stations in Tripura. Infrastructure-driven materialistic possibilism has been proposed as a philosophical model of the infrastructural development of railway stations.
