The mass media either electronic or print media is very positively understood by the people of the society, old and young, literate and illiterate. It is easy for the people to grab the message when it is given to them not only by verbal but by view of its features like radio, television etc. The research paper is an attempt to find out the use and effects of mass media in this new media age among the Hmar youth of Harangajao with population of 160, Buolmol with population of 87 and Hmunthajao with population of 78  (Dima Hasao) from two rural areas and one urban area. The study is an attempt to know the differences of the youth in now days, why the people of urban areas are so advanced either technologically or psychologically and why the rural people still lack behind in every field or why the rural people still needs to go urban areas for their higher education and establishment. The paper also highlights the importance of mass media and its impact in a student life among the Hmar youth. This study is based on primary data with selected villages from Dima Hasao district. Primary data were collected by questionnaire, schedules and personal interview. Purposive sampling method was applied to collect data.<#LINE#>Joshi Uma (1999).@Textbook of Mass communication and Media.@Anmol Publications, New Delhi.@Yes$Mass Media (2017).@What Is Mass Media? - Definition, Types, Influence & Examples.@Video & Lesson Transcript | Study.com ,accessed on 4th june 2017 -http://study.com/academy/lesson/what-is-mass-media-definition-types-influence-examples.html@No$Aggarwal Vir Bala and Gupta V.S.

China<#LINE#>18/6/2017<#LINE#>4/8/2017<#LINE#>This study adopts an asset-based approach to conceptualize the livelihood strategies pursued by indigenous people in rural Bangladesh in particular, Rangamati, Khagrachri and Dinajpur districts. To describe livelihood strategies in the context of livestock based on-farm management, primary data was collected from 300 sample Adivasi households in the survey areas. Asset-based socio-economic as well as demographic factors were characterized through descriptive statistics. Wealth ranking exercise showed that from the total sample households (HHs) 10%, 46.7% and 43.3% were better off, medium and poor respectively, clustered into four livelihood strategies with different outcomes and levels of livelihood diversification. In terms of income, the study result(s) indicated that, farm-alone livelihood strategy has/have better outcomes. However, some households were found to be depended on non-farm and off-farm strategies rather than farm-alone. In addition, the multinomial logit model reveals that households’ livelihood strategies choice were influenced by sex, age of households’ head, educational level of households’ head, farm size, ownership of livestock, involvement in local leadership, annual cash income, access to credit, input use, and training. Our study suggests that livelihood strategy choice of an indigenous person household was mostly influenced by socio-economic and demographic factors. Poor households might be engaged in more income generating activities.<#LINE#>de Oilveira Godinho F.

When affected with an individual’s alcohol dependence the family goes through a process of trying to adapt to their new environment and often this results in failure leading to dysfunction. The current study aimed to describe the family interaction pattern of persons with alcohol dependence from India. Following consent, ninety participants and their care givers were interviewed belonging to 3 different groups. The first two groups of patients included respondents who had been seeking treatment at our centre and had either been abstinent or relapsed and the thirds group of respondents comprised of a control group. The relapsed group had a higher level of dysfunction when compared to the abstinent group of patients in terms of their role, communication, cohesiveness, leadership and overall family interaction. The results indicate that families who have a member who is dependent on alcohol have poor family interaction patterns that are known to cause dysfunction. Treatment programmes must include providing services to help the family as a whole which will also indirectly benefit the patient as well.<#LINE#>Chadda R.K. and Deb K.S.

The Nehruvian strategy comprised of attempts to pose challenges to the internal discrepancies in India pertaining to the British rule as well as to the external or international disturbances of global politics and juxtaposed this with the progressive phenomenon in the West, that he deemed plausible for borrowing and applying to the Indian context, thus, subsequently laying down the framework for the conceptualization of an Indian state. This paper is hence, segregated into three sections:- The first deals with the misuse of power by the colonizers to construct a flawed idea of the state in India and Nehru’s attempt to identify them and pose adequate challenges; the second deals with the Nehruvian ideologies and fundamental principles which were a result of the influences from the West and which assist him in conceptualizing the Indian state; lastly, the third section deals with the plethora of characteristics in Nehru’s prospective vision of the state, that assist in the establishment of a strong case for an idea of state in the forthcoming post-colonial era.<#LINE#>Nehru Jawaharlal (2008).@The Discovery of India.@Penguin Books, New Delhi, India.@Yes$Nehru Jawaharlal (2004).@An Autobiography.@Penguin Books, New Delhi, India.@No$Khilnani Sunil (2002).@Nehru’s Faith.@Economic and Political Weekly, 37(48), 4793-4799.

In particular, it draws attention to the relevance of System Theory and advocates its suitability for designing frameworks to understand natural disaster phenomenon, which grab the head-lines like hurricanes and floods, but also more neglected, insidious, and equally vicious disasters like riverbank erosion in Bangladesh. This holds especially true for impoverished regions of the world like South Asia, which are still predominantly agrarian and rural. The recovery of rural system to indemnify its status to pre-disaster stage is influenced as much by the developmental activities as is the development system’s restoration to previous developmental pace is reinforced by the affected area’s resurgence, resilience, and re-organization of social order. These interrelated topics can be studied in unison effectively through system theory to understand better the implications of riverbank erosion on rural development.<#LINE#>Lorenz D.F.

Data related to the study were collected from Statistical Abstract of Haryana, published by Department of Economic and Statistical Analysis (DESA), Government of Haryana. Energy consumption in k.cal./hect./annum has been computed with the help of total cropped area and Standard Energy Conversion Table prepared by TERI. Data analysis showed that the average energy consumption in the state was 27, 34,157.27 k.cal./hect./annum.  About 90% of the total energy consumption comes from chemical energy followed by human energy (7%), electrical energy (1.7%) and mechanical energy (1.3%). Kurukshetra, Yamunanagar, Palwal, Karnal and Panipat districts of the state have consumed the high amount of energy whereas Bhiwani, Jhajjar, Mahendragarh and Panchkula district have consumed the low amount of energy. Ambala, Rohtak, Rewari, Jind and Fatehabad district have consumed the moderate quantity of energy in agriculture of the state.<#LINE#>Yadav R.S. and Khandelwal N.K.

The concept of radio communication run and managed by the community itself has gained serious attention since almost a half a century ago. The government of India in order to target specific communities launches Community Radio (CR) since the early 2000s. Today India has a functioning 200 CR in the country as against the expected 4000 stations. Though the country’s communication network is one of the largest in the world, Community Radio is still at infancy. From the trouble in obtaining license to the managing station; from the technical limitations to limitations imposed on content to be broadcasted; from mode of financing to restrictive commercialization, Community Radio need total revamping of its entire regulations to meet the demands of the vast-multi-cultural society.<#LINE#>Jayaweera W.

<#LINE#>A review of agrarian relations and changes in state Sikkim, India<#LINE#>Ali@Babar  <#LINE#>59-62<#LINE#>9.ISCA-IRJSS-2017-068.pdf<#LINE#>Centre for the Study of Regional Development, Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi-110067, India<#LINE#>12/6/2017<#LINE#>3/8/2017<#LINE#>It is the state Sikkim where De Facto control was ruled by the British from 1861-1947. A comprehensive picture of agrarian relations in Sikkim was evolved after the establishment of the Namgyal Dynasty (1642). The agrarian structure of Sikkim was monarchy based. In subsequent periods, migrant Bhutias were the ruling class over the indigenous Lepcha tribes & migrant Nepalese. Nepalese had to pay higher amount of rent which was abolished by the king in 1956. But when increased migrant Nepalese outnumbered the Lepcha-Bhutia population, they were prohibited from acquiring land especially in North Sikkim. Generally, three types of tenancy were formed in Sikkim–adhia, kudd and masikatta. After Sikkim becomes the 22nd Indian state in 1975, land reforms were an important step in the state of Sikkim which play an important role on agriculture sustenance.<#LINE#>Subba T.B.
