Government of India announced a tax incentive policy for North-eastern and Himalayan states by which income tax and excise duty exemption of ₹2,186,330 million was granted for a period of 12 years from financial year (FY) 2004–2005 to FY 2015–2016 to new industrial units set up in these states, with an objective to boost development. The aim of this article is to evaluate whether these states have developed as a result of this policy and also to examine whether the policy has affected the North-eastern and Himalayan states differently. In this article, the development is measured on six indicators: (i) per capita net state domestic product; (ii) per capita manufacturing sector state domestic product; (iii) per capita employment in private sector; (iv) number of industrial units set up; (v) amount of investment in the industrial units and (vi) human development index. It is observed that only Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand and Sikkim show development as a result of the policy and even this development has taken place only in pockets. The policy has failed to give fillip to development in the seven North-eastern states. As a policy recommendation, this article suggests that the government should discontinue tax incentives. It should collect taxes on Pan-India basis and use it on infrastructural development of these states, especially on those projects demanded by the states.

Do So

The increasing numbers of newspaper reports on disappearing women from the north eastern state of Assam and especially from the economically backward areas of the state in recent years deserve close attention from both researchers' points of view as well as policy-level intervention of the larger community along with the government. This study makes an attempt to operate upon the menace area through the scalpel of game theory under the light of both primary and secondary data collected from the study area. It is an attempt to outline conscious human behaviour that leads to crimes such as women trafficking and identify the parameters controlling or affecting which types of crimes can be controlled. In order to do so, different distinct entities associated with the problem have been considered as different players leading to the concluding indication of prevailing flaws in the legal system of the country along with lack of employment opportunities and mass ignorance about the problem in hand among common people as the major reasons.

AbstractIt is very difficult to start from scratch a new Astrophysics program in a country with very little or no researchers in the field. In 2007, we began to set-up an Astrophysics program by TWINNING the Université de Ouagadougou with the Université de Montréal in Canada, the Université de Provence in France and the University of Cape Town in South Africa. Already, courses are given at the undergraduate and Master levels and a teaching Observatory has been built. A 1m research telescope was also moved from the La Silla Observatory in Chile to Burkina Faso and the infrastructure is being built at the moment on mount Djaogari in the north-eastern part of the country. In the meantime, 6 students are doing their PhD in Astrophysics overseas (Canada, France and South Africa) and will become the core of the research group at the Université de Ouagadougou. An engineer is also doing his PhD in Astronomical Instrumentation to help with the maintenance of the equipment on the Research Telescope.

Subject Kidal's significance. Significance In mid-February, the government deployed 600 soldiers and auxiliary forces to the far north-eastern city of Kidal and 200 more to Timbuktu, another key northern city. There are also plans to deploy troops to Menaka and Taoudenit. All these towns have been under the de facto control of shifting constellations of rebels, former rebels and militias since April 2012. The return of the military as part of a ‘reconstituted army’ consisting of one-third government soldiers, one-third former rebel fighters and one-third government-aligned militia members indicates a softening of tensions. Impacts The Kidal deployment may blunt some Western criticism of the Malian government’s performance. Legislative elections in March and talks with jihadists could yet change political balances in Kidal. Relations between the government and former rebels in the north are better now than in years. The Algiers Accord’s different provisions are so interconnected that the success of any one depends on agreement on multiple other elements.

AbstractDifferences in natural endowments, in geographical conditions and in per capita income set up an historical bifurcation between northern states, with abundant renewable hydrological resources, and less well-endowed southern states. While the first embraced a model of electricity adding, with the embodiment of this form of energy in capital goods and intermediate goods, the second followed a path of electricity substitution, with mixed strategies of replacing inputs in established sectors of industry, public utilities, transport and private consumption. This article examines the different plans for and achievements of economic nationalism in the twentieth century and its consequences, discussing the possibility of reproducing in Portugal the pattern of the stimulus to industrial manufacturing of cheap electricity.

It is known that the people's economy has experienced a significant decline due to the Covid -19 Pandemic which has spread in various regions in Indonesia. From an economic point of view, we found that there was a decrease in income felt by UMKM actors, one of which was in the Gedangan Sub-District, Sidoarjo District which was caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. So that we are interested in examining how the efforts made by the Government through the Ministry of Finance regarding Final Income Tax Incentives to deal with the decline in income faced by UMKM’s. This study aims to determine how the implementation of the Final PPh Tax Incentive policy for UMKM’s during the current Covid-19 pandemic and to find out how the impact felt by UMKM’s regarding the Final Income Tax incentives issued by the Indonesian Minister of Finance. The method we use in this research is descriptive qualitative with data collection techniques using interviews and observations. The results of this study indicate that the tax incentive policy can not be felt by UMKM actors in Gedangan District, this is due to the lack of socialization provided, resulting in their lack of knowledge about this policy and what conditions they must have to get tax incentives issued by the Ministry of Finance.

Per Capita Consumption

Electricity is the basic need for individuals, households and industries. It is used for everyday life activities by the households, agricultural activities, commercial buildings and industries. The per capita electricity consumption is a proxy indicator growth and development status of a region. All the north eastern states consume per-capita electricity lesser than the national average except Sikkim. The per capita consumption of electricity by Nagaland, Assam and Manipur is nearly just one-third of the national average. Notably, these three north eastern states consume just 40 percent of per capita electricity compared to the highest consumer state Meghalaya. The present study is an evaluation of the per-capita electricity consumption trend and inequality amongst the north-eastern states of India using Gini coefficient and Lorenz curve for two different time periods i.e. 2007 and 2017. We find that Tripura’s annual linear growth rate of per-capita electricity consumption is the highest (3 percent) while that of Meghalaya is the least (1 percent) and the other five states are growing equally at the rate of 2 percent. The Gini coefficient is found to be decreasing from 0.137 in 2007 to 0.122 in 2017. We conclude that the level of inequality is reducing among north eastern states of India though the per-capita consumption of electricity is less than the national average.

Insight Into

The autumn of 1918 brought the end of WWI. ended. The Austro-Hungarian Empire collapsed, the Aster Revolution ran its course in Hungary, Archduke Joseph appointed Count Károlyi Mihály, head of the Hungarian National Council the Prime Minister. The government of the Hungarian People’s Republic, led by M. Karoya, had its own ideas on the prospects of the north-eastern counties of Hungary. The Károlyi government entrusted Oszkár Jászi, a minister without portfolio, a well-known social scientist, an expert in ethnic issues to elaborate the Hungarian nationalities’ autonomy. On December 21, 1918, the People’s Law Nr. X was adopted. It provided for the creation of Ruszka Krajna autonomous region on the territory of Ung, Bereg, Ugocsa and Máramaros (Maramureș) counties inhabited by the Rusins. Historians are aware of the attempt of the Hungarian People’s Republic to create Rusinian autonomy in the late 1918 and early 1919. However, there are archival documents that can help to supplement our previous knowledge of the issue, providing an insight into the circumstances of the creation of Ruszka Krajna and how real the chances of autonomy were. The article attempts to reveal the plans of the Hungarian government regarding the Rusins in 1918–1919, to derscribe the activities of the Ministry of Ruszka Krajna and the Governor’s Office, and to specify the political and social circumstances that influenced these events. In the course of the research, the author first studied the little-known documents of of Ruszka Krajna in Munkács, the Greek Catholic Diocese of Munkács, and the Rusinian People’s Council of Hungary.

Phosphate Deposits

During the last few years I have applied myself to the study of some minerals occurring in the sedimentary rocks of a definite geological horizon. The success of my investigations was greatly favoured by the fact that the mineralogical material was collected during the course of the systematic geological exploration of the phosphate deposits of Russia, which during the past eight years has been under my immediate supervision.The explorations just mentioned were begun in the north-eastern part of European Russia, and several occurrences of barite were found in the first year during the field study of the phosphate deposits in the government of Kostroma.
