Hispid Hare Caprolagus hispidus, member of family Leporidae, is a highly elusive species.  Now restricted to grasslands of north India, southern Nepal and parts of Bhutan, this lagomorph was historically known to be found upto south Bangladesh in Dhaka.  There are currently a very few photographic evidences of this rare and threatened lagomorph as it inhabits dense tall grasslands.  Here, we present a photographic evidence of the Hispid Hare from the grasslands of Dudhwa Tiger Reserve, Uttar Pradesh, India.  The hare was camera-trapped in January 2020 as part of an ongoing study on ungulates in floodplain Terai grasslands of the park.  Although we found signs of Hispid Hare in multiple grasslands, we only photo documented it in one of our sampling sites.  Intensive sampling efforts are needed to get an estimate of the hare in the park, and to assess the immediate threats to this lagomorph and its habitats to plan better conservation measures.

Primary Institutions

Madrasas played a significant role in the formation of Muslim religious thoughts in Indo-Pak Sub-Continent during the course of ninetieth and twentieth centuries. Modern scholarship focused on madrasas situated in Delhi and Uttar Pradesh such as Dar-ul-Uloom Deoband, Dar-ul-Uloom Bareli, Dar-ul-Uloom Farangi Mahal and Madrasa of Khairabad. On the other hand, they did not pay proper attention on the development of religious institutions of Punjab. The present article is an endeavour to fill this gap. The famous Bugwi family of Bhera played an important role in the transformation of knowledge in Punjab. Their madrasas were considered primary institutions for religious studies in Punjab during the course of ninetieth and twentieth centuries. Following the tradition of his ancestors, Maulana Zahoor Ahmad Bugwi established a madrasa at historic Sher Shahi Masjid Bhera, named Dar-ul-Uloom Azizia. This study aims to present the development of Dar-ul-Uloom Azizia and its contribution in the dissemination of knowledge to society during 1929 to 1975 A.D. Keywords:       Madrasa education in Punjab, Bugwi Family, Maulana Zahoor Ahmad Bugwi, Maulana Iftikhar Ahmad Bugwi, Dar-ul-Azizia, twentieth century.

L’objectif premier de notre article est de cerner l’identité des prêtres de pèlerinage de Prayāga (Allahabad, Uttar Pradesh, Inde). Cette identité est construite par la perception qu’entretiennent ces prêtres d’eux-mêmes, la perception de cette collectivité par autrui, les différentes fonctions et prescriptions déterminant leurs activités professionnelles, et les rapports qu’ils entretiennent avec les autres groupes sociaux. Nous discuterons de l’endogamie, de l’exclusivité de la profession, du commensalisme, des rites de perfectionnement ainsi que de certains éléments spécifiques au mode de vie des prayāgavāla qui unissent ces derniers aux pèlerins. Le présent article nous mènera à la conclusion que ces prêtres de pèlerinage constituent un groupe social relativement homogène et distinct dont l’identité est toujours fortement ancrée dans un schème traditionnel hindou.

Malarial Fever

Present study provides significant information on ethno-medicinal plants used for treating malarial fever by the Tharu tribe of Pilibhit Tiger Reserve. The ethno-medicinal data was collected by using prescribed questionnaire. A total 30 informants were critically interviewed for data collection. A total of 23 plant species representing 22 families were found to be commonly used to treat malarial fever. The families most represented were Lamiaceae (4 species) followed by Solanaceae (3 species), Cucurbitaceae and Menispermaceae (2 species each). Some novel traditional uses of certain plants as medicines for treating malarial fever were also recorded. The medicinal plants with botanical name and collection number are arranged in alphabetical order followed by the family, local name growth form parts used and mode of administration. This study generates first-hand information on antimalarial plants used in the region. Present study is a precursor for a detailed pharmacological analysis to ensure scientific validation.

Internal And External Validity

Abstract: Recently, Duriez, Fontaine and Hutsebaut (2000) and Fontaine, Duriez, Luyten and Hutsebaut (2003) constructed the Post-Critical Belief Scale in order to measure the two religiosity dimensions along which Wulff (1991 , 1997 ) summarized the various possible approaches to religion: Exclusion vs. Inclusion of Transcendence and Literal vs. Symbolic. In the present article, the German version of this scale is presented. Results obtained in a heterogeneous German sample (N = 216) suggest that the internal structure of the German version fits the internal structure of the original Dutch version. Moreover, the observed relation between the Literal vs. Symbolic dimension and racism, which was in line with previous studies ( Duriez, in press ), supports the external validity of the German version.
