In this issue

Dear Readers,

To all our esteemed readers, the Editorial team wishes a very happy and prosperous New Year. Continuing with our effort to bring articles which will not only be informative but also tickle your brain, we try to select articles for this issue to attain our objective.
The lead article is about Amur falcon, which was in the news for quite some time, especially relating to Nagaland. But the present article focuses more on Tamenglong district of Manipur, how this species have developed a long relation with the people and the present effort to safeguard them during their annual visit, besides their long migratory journey. The third part of “Peopling of the North East” presents through linguistics and genetic sources the probable routes which bring people to the north east and some other parts of the country. As usual with stunning visuals, in our series of “Know your Universe” this time we concentrate on the hottest planet “Mercury”.
An article on the story of the evolution of fishes in the Eastern Himalayas based on multi-disciplinary studies will make one realise the benefit of such studies in all areas of science. There is also an informative article on the importance of biodiversity in disaster management.
The Quiz section will not only improve your knowledge but will also make us understand that there are still many species yet to be known to science. Some Government initiatives had produced profound benefits to the people. One such example is the plantation of rubber trees in Tripura and we bring you an article on it, which will make our policy framers think that systematic approach is required when one plans a major initiative to be successful.
For the romantically minded, there is a short write up which I hope will make you more romantic!
We try to bring a choice of articles cutting across disciplines and I would like to request our readers to indicate your choices so that we may be able to serve you better.

(Dr.R.K.Nimai Singh)

neScholar Magazine Description:

Publisher: NE-Brothers-Entertainments-Pvt-Ltd

Category: Culture

Language: English

Frequency: Quarterly

“neScholar Magazine” published by North East Brothers Entertainments Pvt Ltd is a Quarterly Multi-Colour magazine, registered under “RNI-MANENG/2014/00112” and “ISSN” No.2350-0336.

It (vol 01 issue 01 Oct Dec 2014) was successfully released on 27th September 2014 at Manipur Press Club, Imphal where Dr.R.K. Nimai, Former Commissioner Art and Culture, Govt of Manipur is the Editor in Chief.

The modest intention behind “neScholar Magazine” is to impart knowledge on North East India beyond school and college textbooks and also to inculcate a new form of reading habit among students.

“neScholar” Magazine is an effort for providing information to our students, which are felt relevant and good to know. We try to bring in a mix of articles covering various subjects and topics. 21st Century is an age of information and information is regarded as power. The School curricula just could not provide all the information required to make our students a knowledgeable person. And ours is a small endeavour to bridge a little of the gap in knowledge.

The world is becoming a global village and in the process many things which our ancestors have empirically learnt through experience and handed over from generations to generations is being substituted by newer things without understanding the implications. Values have changed but the traditional knowledge needs to be recorded and reassessed to understand the importance of such knowledge. Many of our cultural heritage are slowly being eroded aping other’s culture without realising the implications. The beauty of the world is its varied nuances and differences. If we have a single culture in our society, will the earth be as beautiful as it is now?

It features valuable information and articles in the field of Science & Technology, History & Archaeology, Heritage, Nature, Sports& Adventures and Career - for the curious mind. Our endeavor is to make reading an easy and joyful experience.

Board Of Editors / Expert Panel are a group of Experienced professors from reputed Universities of North East India namely Manipur University, North East Hill University (NEHU) Meghalaya, Gauhati University (Assam), Tripura University and Mizoram University.
