A} SELECTION OF FORTS The Western Maharashtra comprises Konkan, WG of Maharashtra and Deccan Plateau. In Western Maharashtra about 300 forts are scattered all along the sea through seacoast to crest of the Western Ghats of Maharashtra and Deccan Plain. There are about 40 ‘Island forts’ and ‘Coastal forts’ in Maharashtra, especially in Konkan; on the crest of WGM, about 150 forts are present and about 40 forts are constructed on the Deccan plain. General survey of these forts was made with reference to vegetation to select the forts for present study. The selection of forts was based on the landscape pattern, geographical area and topography (Survey of India 1991, 1996a, 1996b, 1996c, 1997a, 1997b). For the present study, the Western Maharashtra was divided into six geographical zones based on fort locations. Each zone was considered as a single stratum. From each zone two forts were selected from different districts. Table 3.1: Zone details with zone numbers Zone Zone Zone details No. Forts in Sea as an island in Maharashtra - Island Z1 Konlian Forts (Thane and Raigad Forts along the coast in Maharashtra - Coastal Z2 districts) Forts Forts on the border of Konkan and WG region - Z3 WG of Maharashtra Hill Forts (Raigad, Ratnagiri, Forts on the crest of WG of Maharashtra - Hill Z4 Satara, Pune districts) forts Forts on eastern Slope of the WG of Maharashtra Z5 Deccan Plateau - Hill forts (Pune and Satara Z6 districts) Forts on Deccan Plateau - Hill Forts Page I 24 Selection of forts from study area General survey of the study area was done with reference to forts with specific parameters / objectives. • With the available literature and maps, a list of forts present in each zone was prepared. Some criteria were applied to select forts for further study. • Prioritization criteria were defined for selection of forts. o Forts under study must be present in the defined study area, o Forts should not be the part of the Sanctuary or the Reserve Forest area; Natural vegetation should be present, o Forts should not have more tourism pressure and should not be the State or National monument • The top five prioritized forts were visited thoroughly from each zone and confirmed the ground realities. • Two forts were selected from each zone by applying parameters keeping the distance of more than 10% of that of total zone.

For island and coastal forts, vegetation up to the outermost boundary wall of forts with bastions was considered. However, for the hill forts, two subareas, namely, area delimited by the outermost fortified wall with bastions and area outside the fortified wall with adjoining spurs and ravines was considered. Vegetation data was collected according to the landscape pattern, terrain and altitude. C} DATA COLLECTION Field data was collected with reference to taxonomy, ecology, mapping of fort, vegetation and individual species with GPS. a) Field tours Each fort was visited at least twice in a year preferably in summer and winter seasons only because of inaccessibility during rainy season. However, the vegetation data of some accessible forts was collected even in monsoon season. The total data of each fort was categorized in three phases. The first phase (one and half year duration) comprises general survey, habitat identification, listing and identification of plant species. During the second phase (two years duration) mapping of forts, landscape pattern, vegetation and individual species with GPS was done and in the third phase (two years duration) the data was analyzed by using various software and confirmed with an iterative field visits. Page I 26 b) Taxonomical work • Plant specimens were collected from the forts and herbarium was prepared by using the method described by Jain & Rao (1979). • Identification of plant species was done with the help of regional floras (Sharma and Karthikeyan, 1996; Singh and Karthikeyan, 2000) and the expertise from the field of plant taxonomy. • The photographs of forts with vegetation and unique plant species were snapped by the Canon EOS 400D Digital SLR camera of 10.2 mega pixel capacity. The images were stored in ‘.jpg’ format for further utilization. • All identified species were arranged according to ‘Bentham and Hooker’s (1862-1883) system of classification with some modifications according to the recent nomenclature (Singh and Karthikeyan, 2000; www.ipni.org). • Updated nomenclature was used

  • The Rayat Sevak Co-Operative Bank Operating in the Satara District
    CHAPTER - 1 INTRODUCTION AND RESEARCH METHODOLOGY 1.1 Introduction The cooperative movement started in Europe in the nineteenth century, basically in Britain and France. The first consumer cooperative was set up in 1769, in Fenwick, East Ayrshire, when neighborhood weavers mauled a sack of oats into John Walker's whitewashed receiving area and began offering the substance at a rebate, framing the Fenwick Weavers' Society, by 1830, there were a few hundred co- operatives. Some were at first fruitful, yet most cooperatives established in the mid nineteenth century had flopped by 1840. It was not until 1844 when the Rochdale Society of Equitable Pioneers set up the "Rochdale Principles" on which they ran their cooperative, that framed the reason for advancement and development of the modern cooperative movement . Robert Owen Robert Owen (1771– 1858) is considered as the father of the cooperative development. A Welshman who ended up noticeably fruitful in the cotton exchange, Owen put stock in giving his workers a decent situation with access to education for themselves and their kids. These thoughts were actualized effectively in the cotton factories of New Lanark, Scotland. It was here that the main co-operative store was opened. Owen's thought was of shaping "towns of co-operation" where laborers would drag themselves out of neediness by developing their own particular nourishment, making their own particular garments and eventually getting to be noticeably autonomous. He endeavored to frame such groups in Orbiston in Scotland and in New Congruity, Indiana in the United States of America, yet the two groups fizzled. William King Despite the fact that Owen propelled the co-operative movement, others –, for example, Dr.

  • Chapter 4: People and Protected Area
    CHAPTER 4: PEOPLE AND PROTECTED AREA Most of the habitations in the Koyna sanctuary area have been re-located during construction of Koyna dam. Remants of a few submerged villages as Shirshingi, Jungati an abandoned villages as Dicholi, Ambeghar have been observed during the field work. (Plate 4-1). A few of these villages have been shifted from valley to uphills in the same area instead of complete relocation. After designating the area as Tiger Reserve in 2010, rehabilitation of all these villages have been undertaken by the Forest Department. About 30 villages including all those were situated in the core zone of Koyna (STR) have been relocated to Sangali, Satara and Thane districts. Re-location procedures for about 11 villages are still ongoing.
