    CENSUS OF INDIA 1981 PARTXB SERIES 4 BIHAR TOWN SURVEY REPORT DHANBAD Drafted by Rajendra Prasad Asstt. Director Edited by S.C. Saxena Deputy Director Supervised by V.K. Bhargava Deputy Director Directorate of Census Operations BIHAR FOREWORD Apart from the decennial enumeration of population, the Indian Census is ~teeped in the tradition of undertaking a variety of studies of topical interest. In fact, the publications brought out in connection with the earlier censuses contained veritable mines of informatfon!On racial, cultural, linguistic and a number of other aspects of life of the people of this country. With the advent of freedom, however, the scope and dimension of these special studies had to be re­ structured in a manner that would provide the basic feedbacks on the processes of development taking place in different spheres of life of the people especially under planned development. Thus, in connection with the 1961, Census, a massive programme wa~s launched inter-alia to conduct socio-economic survey of about 500 villages selected from different parts of the country. The main objective of this study was to know the way of life of the people living in Indian villages which accounted for 82 per cent of the total population as per the 1961 Census. There was, however, an imperative need to extand the area of the study to urban centres as well, to -provide a complete coverage of the people living in diverse sodo economic conditions. It was with this objective in view ancillary studies on towns were launched as part of the social studies programme in connection with the 1971 Census.

  • Environmental Ethics and Gandhian Approach MODULE - 7 Environmental Management
    Environmental Ethics and Gandhian Approach MODULE - 7 Environmental Management 26 Notes ENVIRONMENTAL ETHICS AND GANDHIAN APPROACH You have learnt about the basic concepts of environment and the environmental issues. You have also learnt about the need for conservation and management of natural resources. The earth is one, but the world is not. We all depend on one biosphere for sustaining our lives. Yet each community, each country, strives for survival and prosperity with little regard for its impact on others. It is our fundamental duty to make this planet earth a decent habitable place. The challenge of living in harmony with the earth is as old as human society itself. Environmental ethics relates to our obligations and responsibilities towards nature. For an equitable share we must have equal responsibilities. In this lesson you shall learn about environmental ethics, our responsibilities towards environment and the Gandhian approach to environmental protection. OBJECTIVES After studying this lesson, you will be able to: • define ethics and explain the importance of environmental ethics; • list the approaches to environmental ethics; • develop a sense of respect for all life on earth; • focus on the need for creating awareness of the environment in children as through nature study; • recall the traditions of harmonious living with nature and correlate religious beliefs and traditional practices of conservation of nature as a whole; • highlight and create awareness about traditional festivals, arts, crafts and ecofriendly techniques,
