Dhakar Daak - Bengal famine (1943) Language movement (1952)
Dhakar Daak : In 1943, at the All India Peasant Conference in Netrokona, Mymensingh, East Bengal, two Sufi village poets offered to sing at the cultural program conducted by IPTA (Indian Peoples' Theatre Association). To everyone's surprise they sang, not a spiritual song, but a song describing their sufferings in the man-made 1942 famine that devastated colonial British India during WW2, killing four million Bengalis. They continued to extemporize for about 45 minutes: "There is endless sorrow for me but no one to whom I can complain; whatever hope I had has been shattered by the black market. 0 brother, do you remember how mothers who could not breastfeed their babies were selling them." Hemanga Biswas, who was present at that meeting, was haunted by the memory of that song, which he hadn't been able to write down then. Nine years later he wrote a song in a similar ballad style about the language movement (Bhasha Andolon, 1952) in East Pakistan (now Bangladesh) when Bengalis protested at the imposition of Urdu as the national language by the Pakistani government. The protesters (comprising of a huge number of students and young people) were dealt with mercilessly and many students died. Composers : Hemanga Biswas, Unknown Sufi singers of undivided Bengal Singer: Kali Dasgupta

Max Hastings All Hell Let Loose
Max Hastings All Hell Let Loose Available now amzn.to A magisterial history of the greatest and most terrible event in history, from one of the finest historians of the Second World War. A book which shows the impact of war upon hundreds of millions of people around the world- soldiers, sailors and airmen; housewives, farm workers and children. Reflecting Max Hastings's thirty-five years of research on World War II, All Hell Let Loose describes the course of events, but focuses chiefly upon human experience, which varied immensely from campaign to campaign, continent to continent. The author emphasises the Russian front, where more than 90% of all German soldiers who perished met their fate. He argues that, while Hitler's army often fought its battles brilliantly well, the Nazis conducted their war effort with 'stunning incompetence'. He suggests that the Royal Navy and US Navy were their countries' outstanding fighting services, while the industrial contribution of the United States was much more important to allied victory than that of the US Army. The book ranges across a vast canvas, from the agony of Poland amid the September 1939 Nazi invasion, to the 1943 Bengal famine, in which at least a million people died under British rule- and British neglect. Among many vignettes, there are the RAF's legendary raid on the Ruhr dams, the horrors of Arctic convoys, desert tank combat, jungle clashes. Some of Hastings's insights and judgements will surprise students of the ...

o alor pothojatri Manna Dey Salil Sabita
This is my favourite version of this song. It was recorded in 1971 by some prominent and talented vocalists, Sabita Chowdhury and Manna De amongst them. Salil Chowdhury is the song writer and the composer. This song of mass awakening was first recorded in 1949 for the Indian People's Theatre Association or Bharotiyo Ganonatya Sangha; the backdrop was the 1943 Bengal famine when millions died of starvation.

Inferno by Max Hastings
From one of our finest military historians, a monumental work that shows us at once the truly global reach of World War II and its deeply personal consequences. World War II involved tens of millions of soldiers and cost sixty million lives—an average of twenty-seven thousand a day. For thirty-five years, Max Hastings has researched and written about different aspects of the war. Now, for the first time, he gives us a magnificent, single-volume history of the entire war. Through his strikingly detailed stories of everyday people—of soldiers, sailors and airmen; British housewives and Indian peasants; SS killers and the citizens of Leningrad, some of whom resorted to cannibalism during the two-year siege; Japanese suicide pilots and American carrier crews—Hastings provides a singularly intimate portrait of the world at war. He simultaneously traces the major developments—Hitler's refusal to retreat from the Soviet Union until it was too late; Stalin's ruthlessness in using his greater population to wear down the German army; Churchill's leadership in the dark days of 1940 and 1941; Roosevelt's steady hand before and after the United States entered the war—and puts them in real human context. Hastings also illuminates some of the darker and less explored regions under the war's penumbra, including the conflict between the Soviet Union and Finland, during which the Finns fiercely and surprisingly resisted Stalin's invading Red Army; and the Bengal famine in 1943 and 1944 ...

She is most remembered for her poignant poem, Aj Aakhaan Waris Shah Nu (Today I invoke Waris Shah - "Ode to Waris Shah", an elegy to the 18th-century Punjabi poet, an expression of her anguish over massacres during the partition of India. As a novelist her most noted work was Pinjar (The Skeleton) (1950), in which she created her memorable character, Puro, an epitome of violence against women, loss of humanity and ultimate surrender to existential fate; the novel was made into an award-winning film, Pinjar in 2003. When the former British India was partitioned into the independent states of India and Pakistan in 1947, she migrated from Lahore, to India, though she remained equally popular in Pakistan throughout her life, as compared to her contemporaries like Mohan Singh and Shiv Kumar Batalvi.

Documentary film on Big Dams in India ( Part 1, Produced in 1999 - 2000)
This documentary film was produced by Shantakaram Films for WAPCOS - Water And Power Consultancy Services to present the views of South East Asian Countries and Govt. of India on large dams,their benefits and their R&R; problems in the '2nd World Water Summit' held in The Hague in Netherlands in February 2000. The world's worst recorded food disaster happened in 1943, when an estimated 4 million people in eastern India died. At the time, people believed the Bengal Famine happened because India's farmers could not produce enough food to feed everyone. Food security—ensuring sufficient food production to feed a country's people—became the Indian government's biggest priority. "Green Revolution" is the term that refers to the governmental focus on food production in India from 1967--1978. Previously, the country had focused on expanding the amount of land under cultivation, but as the population continued to increase at a much faster rate than food production, the government changed its focus. During the Green Revolution, attention turned to improving farming techniques. There were three basic parts of the Green Revolution in India: (1) expansion of farming areas; (2)double cropping technique; and (3) improved seed genetics. Double cropping, harvesting two crops per year, was the primary feature of India's Green Revolution and required a steady supply of water. To make this possible, the government began construction of a network of large dams. Dams are able to conserve ...
