	Rangpur - LoveToKnow 1911 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		RANGPUR, or Rungpore, a town and district of British India, in the Rajshahi division of Eastern Bengal and Assam.
		The greater part of it, particularly towards the east, is inundated during the rains, and the remainder is traversed by a network of streams which frequently break through their sandy banks and plough for themselves new channels over the fields.
		The tract comprised within the district of Rangpur was formerly the western outpost of the ancient Hindu kingdom of Kamrup, which appears to have attained its greatest power and prosperity under Raja Nilambar, who was treacherously overthrown by Ala-uddin Hosain of Bengal at the close of the 15th century.

	Scientia Agricola - Rootstocks for 'Tahiti' lime (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Trees budded on 'Rangpur' lime and 'C-13' citrange had the highest cumulative yields, and were different from trees budded on trifoliate orange, 'Cleopatra' and 'Sunki' mandarins.
		The 'Rangpur' lime and 'Cleopatra' mandarin rootstocks determined greater percentages of dead 'Tahiti' lime trees on the 12th year, and the cause of death of trees grafted on 'Rangpur' lime was root rot.
		Trees budded on 'Cleopatra' mandarin produced rootstock suckers and presented differences between the diameters of the rootstock and the scion, suggesting inadequate affinity of this rootstock with 'Tahiti' lime was the cause of death of the trees.

		RDRS Bangladesh (Rangpur Dinajpur Rural Service) is a respected, long-established development NGO working to empower the rural poor in northern Bangladesh for over 34 years.
		Once the two regions of Rangpur and Dinajpur were considered among the remotest parts of the country, and their people among the poorest and least developed.
		But the years since Independence in 1971 have seen great changes in the area, in both the physical and the social landscapes; the opening of the Jamuna Bridge in 1998, an historic event in itself, was merely the latest cog in the wheel of development bringing new vitality to the region.

	Ahmadiyya persecution picks up speed - Editorial - The Daily Star, Bangladesh
		When the authorities, whose duty it is to protect every person within their jurisdiction, are unwilling to take steps to safeguard a threatened community, then they must be considered just as culpable as those who actually commit the violence.
		The disgraceful dereliction of their duty to protect the minority community renders the local Rangpur police complicit in the atrocities.
		It is bad enough that the government caved in to its extremist allies and banned Ahmadiyya publications, thereby emboldening the anti-Ahmadiyya zealots and further marginalising the community.

		This is the first ass until now IIRO has not been able to provide funds for Bihari orphans living in camps in Rangpur or elsewhere in the country.
		Several months earlier IIRO had conducted a survey of orphans in the camps of Rangpur with our cooperation and we prepared a list of 83 orphans for providing financial assistance.
		It is a matter of surprise and conjecture that after some time a separate survey was independently conducted by the head of the orphanage along with others, which resulted in all 83 orphans enlisted in the Rangpur camps to be deleted from the new survey list.

		The Rangpur lime, Citrus limonia, is not actually a true lime, but its tart flavor is an excellent substitute in recipes using lemons or limes.
		Botanists claim the Rangpur is a cross between a Mexican lime and a mandarin orange, but in reality according to experts, this orange-colored fruit is really a sour mandarin.
		Able to produce fruit for nearly forty years, Rangpur trees are often used as a rootstock for other citrus and also enjoyed as a lovely ornamental tree.
