Abstract:
ObjectiveTo explore the prevalence and determinants of calendar literacy and last menstrual period (LMP) recall among women in Bangladesh.DesignCross-sectional survey.SettingsTwo rural subdistricts and one urban area from three Northern districts of Bangladesh.ParticipantsWe interviewed 2731 women who had a live birth in the last 1 year.Primary and secondary outcome measuresThe primary outcome variable was LMP recall and the secondary outcome was calendar literacy.ResultsThe majority of participants (65%) correctly mentioned the current date according to the English calendar while 12% mentioned according to the Bengali calendar. During the interview sessions, we used three different calendars: Bengali, English and Hijri to assess calendar literacy. We asked women to mark the current date using the calendar on the day of the interview. Almost 61% women marked the English calendar, 16% marked the Bengali calendar and 4% marked the Hijri calendar correctly. Sixty-three per cent women were found as calendar literate who marked any of the calendars. Among the participants, 58% had calendars available at their home and only 10% of women used calendars to track their LMPs. Overall, 53% women were able to recall their recent LMP. Among the calendar literate, 60% could recall their LMPs. Factors found associated with recalling LMP were: completed eight or more years of schooling (adj.OR 1.39), primigravida (adj.OR 1.88), the richest wealth quintile (adj.OR 1.55) and calendar literacy (adj.OR 1.59).ConclusionsDespite having reasonable calendar literacy and availability, the use of calendars for tracking LMP found very low. Calendar literacy and sociodemographic characteristics were found as the key factors associated with LMP recall. Maternal, neonatal and child health programmes in low-resource settings can promote a simple tool like calendar and target the communities where ultrasound is not available to ensure accurate LMP recall for early pregnancy registration and timely antenatal care coverage.

Abstract:
Durga puja, or the worship of goddess Durga, is the single most important festival in Bengal's rich and diverse religious calendar. It is not just that her temples are strewn all over this part of the world. In fact, goddess Kali, with whom she shares a complementary history, is easily more popular in this regard. But as a one-off festivity, Durga puja outstrips anything that happens in Bengali life in terms of pomp, glamour, and popularity. And with huge diasporic populations spread across the world, she is now also a squarely international phenomenon, with her puja being celebrated wherever there are even a score or so of Hindu Bengali families in one place. This is one Bengali festival that has people participating across religions and languages. In that sense, Durga puja has an unmistakable cosmopolitan hue about it. With more than 10 million people visiting the differentpandals(the temporary, covered pavilions or marquees created for the goddess) in Kolkata alone on any one of the four days of festivity (now effectively extended to a whole week), Durga puja could well be the biggest carnival on earth. Kolkata's image has become synonymous with this grand autumnal festival of the goddess.

Abstract:
This paper examines seasonal variation of births in a rural community of West Bengal, India, by exploring data from the 1992–93 National Family Health Survey. Suitable time series analyses were used to determine the seasonal pattern of births and to estimate peaks. The trigonometric regression technique was used to carry out this objective. The study attempted to link the results of the regression analysis to the atmospheric temperature of the region during 1987–91, the distribution of respondents’ husbands’ occupations and the marriage pattern of the community. It was found that, in the study population, conceptions were numerous in the first quarter of a calendar year and the distribution of conceptions over calendar months was negatively associated with the average monthly temperature. In addition, the marriage pattern of the community and the occupational distribution of the fathers also had a significant effect on the distribution of births over calendar months. It is hoped that the findings will boost the development of needs-based maternal and child health (MCH) and family planning programmes in the community.

Abstract:
The intercept as the coefficient of algebraic relationship between standard length (SL) and total length (TL), the two predominantly used linear dimensions of fin fish species, was referred to growth pattern deduction for rainbow sardine Dussumieriaacuta population in the Bay of Bengal. Monthly rainbow sardine samples were collected from the industrial fishing vessel in the Bay of Bengal over a period of a calendar year. The length-length relationship was formed algebraically as y=a+ bx. Linear relationship between SL and TL for male, female and unsexed populations was constructed separately. Chi-squared test affirmed that sex ratio between male and female did not deviate from the parity (P>0.05). The SL and TL ranges of male were 13.1-16.8and 16.4-20.7 cm respectively, they for female were13.4-17.2 and 16.5-20.9 cm respectively. Slope and intercept showed variation monthly in all length-length relationships regardless of sexes. The generalized SL-TL relationships of male, female and unsexed populations employing pooled data over the study period were TL=1.130SL+1.571 (R=0.908), TL=1.106SL+1.925 (R=0.911), and TL=1.114SL+1.825 (R=0.908) respectively. The correlation coefficients of all monthly and generalized regression analyses of all sex categories were very high (R≥0.786), a fact that explained the associations between two length dimensions were strongly related. Study revealed isometric growth for male in all months, while algometry was apparent for female and unsexed populations in a few months. Present findings of length-length relationship and growth pattern for D. acuta population in the Bay of Bengal would remain useful for future references. Res. Agric., Livest.

Abstract:
Navarātri (Tam. Navarāttiri) is one of the most popular and important annual festivals in the south Indian city of Madurai. The same is true elsewhere in the state and, in somewhat different forms, the festival is also popular in many other regions of India, notably Bengal (where it is known as Durgā Pūjā) and Karnataka (where it is called Dasarā). Navarātri means ‘nine nights’ and throughout India the festival is celebrated on the first nine lunar days (tithi) of the bright fortnight (i.e. the fortnight ending on full moon) of the lunar month of āśvina. In the Tamil calendar, however, the year is divided into twelve solar months and Navarātri is said to occupy the nine lunar days beginning with the day after new moon in the solar month of puraṭṭāci (September-October). Very occasionally, the Tamil formula may supply the wrong date. In many years, the festival only lasts eight weekdays, as two lunar days may fall within one weekday. (In some parts of India, a Navarātri festival is celebrated in the spring, but that is not discussed here.)

AbstractSoutheast Asia is an important region located on the coast of the Indian Ocean and the Bay of Bengal. It comprises a majority of Muslim countries such as Indonesia, Malaysia, Bangladesh, and Pakistan. Muslims have ruled for centuries in these countries. Muslim sultanates were founded in India, Bengal, Burma, Patani, and islands in the Malay archipelago such as Indonesia, Malaysia and others. This paper focuses on answering the question: “When did Islam arrive in this region?” There is evidence suggesting that it arrived during the era of the Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w.). Many of the historians in this region are of the view that there is insufficient information supporting this claim. Rather, they argue that Islam likely arrived through early Islamic Da‘wah movements and Islamic conquests during the first three centuries of the Muslim calendar. Some claim that it first reached western India with historical evidence indicating that it arrived in the eighth century during the Abbasid dynasty, while others hold different views and hypotheses. This article analyses the evidence and clues to determine the arrival of Islam in this South East Asia and contrasts it with the historical narrative to arrive at a conclusion that is supported by historical and geographical evidence.Keywords: Arrival of Islam, Southeast Asia, the Companions, Muslim Preachers, the Prophet (s.a.w.).

Abstract:
An epidemic of any infectious disease is an invisible ruthless enemy that cannot be defeated by military, political, economic or ideological means. Humanity always reacts to such threats quite nervously and subconsciously tries to mythologize them, at least a little, in order to somehow psychologically protect itself from the real fear of imminent death. Since there is no rational defense against such a threat, people for the most part react in an irrational manner.The 19th century, almost the same as the previous centuries, «started» in epidemiological terms almost from the very beginning of its calendar. Only in contrast to the previous 18th century, the main and dominant danger was posed by another infectious pathology — cholera.In the history of medicine, over the 19th century, as many as six outbreaks of cholera epidemics were recorded since 1817. The first of them began in East Bengal and lasted 8 years (1817—1824), gradually, covering almost all India and big regions of the Middle East. It was worsened by the traditional travels of both Hindu and Muslim pilgrims to «holy places» who spread Vibrio cholerae on foot and through active communication with local residents.One of the significant reasons why cholera epidemic continued with minimal interruptions for almost the entire nineteenth century was an insufficient level of scientific knowledge in microbiology and the resulting ignorance of the causative agent of cholera — vibrio and its properties.Another factor was a complete lack of understanding by society of the need to observe at least the simplest sanitary standards in everyday life. And there was also misunderstanding among the leadership which tried to limit the next outbreak of cholera mainly by administrative measures without adequate explanations of their essence and necessity to the population.
