About Journal/Editorial Note

Dear Readers /Researchers,
We are thrilled to present the renewed and revitalized Kshatriya with the release of Volume I, Issue I. This editorial note marks the beginning of an exciting new phase for this peer-reviewed research journal. As the Editor-in-Chief, I am honored to lead the editorial team and foster a culture of academic excellence, innovation and collaboration. This journal was once upon a time a monthly mouthpiece of Rangapur Kshatyriya Samiti edited by Jogendra Nath Roy and Prosanna Kumar Barma, renowned social reformers cum intellectuals of Rajbanshi society. Its journey started in the year 1921 CE in the British colonial period at Rangpur (undivided Bengal) and it was closed after some years. Thus, a century of its outset is over. Over the months, Kshatriya had been at the forefront of disseminating groundbreaking issues of Rangpur Kshatriya Samiti as its mouthpiece in the past. Building on this legacy, we embark on a journey to refine and expand our scope to accommodate the dynamic landscape of modern research. Our vision is to become a premier platform for the exchange of ideas, discoveries, and advancements, encouraging interdisciplinary studies and promoting the use of cutting-edge methodologies. Accessibility and the open exchange of knowledge are paramount in today's global research landscape. Therefore, we are committing to maintain an open-access policy, enabling unrestricted access to published articles since the next issues. With the re-launch of Kshatriya, we invite researchers and scholars/social scientists from around the world to submit their latest works. We welcome diverse perspectives, original research papers, research reports, summary of thesis/dissertation, systematic book reviews and methodological advancements. This first issue consists of eight new articles and an old issue of
Kshatriya (Vol. 4, issue 7). We extend our gratitude to the authors, reviewers, Editorial Board members, and Advisors who have played a pivotal role in the process of re-launch. Your unwavering support and dedication have been instrumental in
making this transformation possible. As we venture into this exciting new chapter, we look forward to your contributions, feedback, and active participation. Together, we will shape the future of Khatriya and contribute to the advancement of research. Thank you for joining us in this journey.
Sincerely,
Dr. Prosenjit Ray
Editor-in-Chief
