  • Section-VIII : Laboratory Services
    Section‐VIII Laboratory Services 8. Laboratory Services 8.1 Haemoglobin Test ‐ State level As can be seen from the graph, hemoglobin test is being carried out at almost every FRU studied However, 10 percent medical colleges do not provide the basic Hb test. Division wise‐ As the graph shows, 96 percent of the FRUs on an average are offering this service, with as many as 13 divisions having 100 percent FRUs contacted providing basic Hb test. Hemoglobin test is not available at District Women Hospital (Mau), District Women Hospital (Budaun), CHC Partawal (Maharajganj), CHC Kasia (Kushinagar), CHC Ghatampur (Kanpur Nagar) and CHC Dewa (Barabanki). 132 8.2 CBC Test ‐ State level Complete Blood Count (CBC) test is being offered at very few FRUs. While none of the sub‐divisional hospitals are having this facility, only 25 percent of the BMCs, 42 percent of the CHCs and less than half of the DWHs contacted are offering this facility. Division wise‐ As per the graph above, only 46 percent of the 206 FRUs studied across the state are offering CBC (Complete Blood Count) test service. None of the FRUs in Jhansi division is having this service. While 29 percent of the health facilities in Moradabad division are offering this service, most others are only a shade better. Mirzapur (83%) followed by Gorakhpur (73%) are having maximum FRUs with this facility.

  • Study Sponsored by Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare Agro-Economic Research Centre University of Allahabad Allahabad-211002
    Study No. 143 Publication No. 192 FFFaFaaarrrrmermer Suicides ininin Uttar Pradesh Prof. Ramendu Roy Dr. H.C. Malviya Haseeb Ahmad Study Sponsored by Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare Agro-Economic Research Centre University of Allahabad Allahabad-211002 January- 2017 [1] PREFACE India is basically an agrarian country because more than 60 percent population of the country resides in rural areas and their main occupation is agriculture. Besides this, the livelihood of majority of population of rural areas of the country is also depended on the agriculture. However, the agriculture is still a gamble of monsoon. It is an uncertain and un-predictable occupation because it still depends on weather condition. The drought, flood, heavy rains, hail storm, etc are the common phenomena in the country. These are causes of failure of crops. On account of failure of crops, the indebtedness is also increasing among the farmers. More than70% of total farmers of the country are marginal and small farmers who are mostly in the debt trap. The crop failure, indebtedness, illness, family problems, drug abuser etc are reasons for famers’ suicides in the country. In spite of doing all efforts, the incidence of farmers’ suicides is not being stopped yet in the country. The incidences of farmers’ suicide mostly occurred in Maharashtra, Telangana, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Kerala and Chhattisgarh. These are most prone states for incidence of farmers’ suicides. However, it is also a global phenomena. Sri. Lanka, USA, Canada, England and Australia are also in the grip of incidence of farmers’ suicides. Out of total farmers suicides of 5650 in 2014 in India the maximum share accounted for 45.45% in Maharashtra followed by 15.90%, 14.62%, 7.80%, and 5.68% in Telangana, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, and Karnataka respectively.

Groundwater table fluctuations over time in shallow aquifer systems need to be evaluated for formulating or designing an K e yw or ds appropriate groundwater development scheme. This paper demonstrates a methodology Precipitation, for modeling rainfall- runoff and groundwater table fluctuations observed in a shallow unconfined aquifer Gonda District Utter Pradesh. The rainfall recharge contributed to its Ground water recharge, Ground annual increment in the ground in water reserve which in turn is reflected in the rise of water table water table during the post monsoon period. The linear regression model between water fluctuation, Karl table and annual rainfall was derived by Karl parson’s method.
