V.S. Naipaul’s ?The Mystic Masseur?: A Study of Post- Colonial Myth and Reality
Get PDF<h3 data-fontsize="17" data-lineheight="23">Abstract</h3>
<p>The Mystic Masseur is one of the V.S. Naipaul’s finest comic creations in which we see immense sensibility, humour, success, politics and endless inventive imagination that have become the hallmarks of the author’s genius. It is Naipaul’s first novel that depicts the story of the rise of Ganesh Ramsumair, from failed primary teacher and struggling masseur to author, revered mystic and M.B.E. It is a journey memorable for its hilarious and bewildering success through politics. V.S. Naipaul has made the claim that the story of Ganesh Ramsumair is the history of their time. In each step of the career of Ganesh Ramsumair the author has satirized the rise of power of a representative of the country, called Trinidad which was about to achieve it’s independence from the British colonial rule in 1962.Beneath the muchness and manyness the author traces the romance and realism, imagination and fact of the ?rise? and ?decline? of Ganesh Ramsumair. The story of the novel is not only the life history of Ganesh Ramsumair; rather it is a story of social and economic life of the Indian islanders. The author shows his alienation and rootlessness of the people migrated from India to Trinidad. Here he puts stress on the importance of imagination for survivalThe question is whether the novel The Mystic Masseur depicts the real Trinidad, the question is answered in King’s observations in his book. ?Those familiar with Trinidadian history should recognize how Naipaul has used local events, characters and such politicians characters and such politicians as Uriah Butler, Albert Gomes, Arthur Cipriani and Naipaul’s two uncles, Rudranath and SimbhoonathCapildeo in his novel. Naipaul’s early fiction is based on memories of Trinidadian cultural and political life before he left for England in 1950.? (King 29) My paper proposes to examine how V.S. Naipaul usesthe post-colonial myth and reality in his novel The Mystic Masseu</p>

Economic Viability of Rainwater Harvesting by Renovating Village Ponds in Small Agricultural Watershed of Johranpur (HP)
Get PDFThe study has evaluated the benefits and financial structure of the project in the village Johranpur, district Solan (Himachal Pradesh) where a project under the NATP on ‘Rainwater Management on Micro Watershed basis’ was undertaken in the year 2000. It has also studied the extent of employment generated by the project and has assessed the changes in the land-use pattern in the project area. The results have revealed that technology of diverting run-off from agricultural fields to renovated ponds and its recycling to the same area with peoples’ participation and other technological interventions could produce remarkable results and have tripled the net agricultural income. The project was implemented at an initial cost of 9.21 lakhs and farmers incurred additional annual cost on inputs ranging from Rs 4963 to Rs 6346 per hectare due to supplemental irrigation, increased cropping intensity and higher input-use. The benefit cost ratio has been found as 1.71 using a discount value of 10 per cent for the project-life of 10 years. The project has also helped in generating additional employment opportunities on casual as well as regular basis.Agricultural and Food Policy,

No full textNot AvailableThe range grasses and legumes are important components of rangeland ecosystem. In Indian rangelands, these species show enormous diversity and have immense economic, ecological and socio-religious significance. Range grasses provide nutritious fodder for livestock, which is the mainstay of traditional farming system and also provide raw material for industry such as paper, pulp, aromatic oil etc. Among range legumes, the species of genera Alysicarpus, Atylosia, Desmodium, Pueraria, Rhynchosia, Stylosanthes, Teramnus etc have huge potential. Many of the range grasses and legumes are supposed the lie support species as food during drought and famines. The present review is an attempt to give an overview of diversity, economic, ecological and socio-religious significances of grass and legume species of Indian rangelands along with future research needs for sustainable utilization of these species.Not Availabl
