Background: The program of the ‘Accelerated Development of Minor Irrigation‘ of the State Government of West Bengal specifically aims at developing and or rehabilitating community-based minor irrigation systems on sound techno-economic, environmental and social principles. The execution of the program stresses on the strategy of conjunctive use of surface and ground water relying on the principles of equitable distribution of water keeping in view, in particular, the socially and economically disadvantaged groups amongst farming communities in project influence areas. The State Government is aware that in absence of the opportunities of extending lands under agriculture, the productivity in agriculture can be augmented and sustained only through providing input of assured irrigation to lands under cultivation with the requisite provision of support services for intensification and diversification of agricultural systems and adoption of improved post-harvest technologies, purposeful and effective advisory services coupled with a higher degree of market integration. Through the execution of this program, the cropping intensity has been proposed to be raised to the level of 200% on an average in 6 agro-climatic regions of the state, which currently is at the level of 180%. However the State Government feels that the sustainability of these minor irrigation schemes will largely depend on institutionalizing participatory irrigation management taking into account the specifics of traditions, socio-cultural parameters of farmers and water user associations in different agro-ecological regions of the State. 2. Project Location: The project intends to bring in 63,555ha of land under surface water irrigation (through a total of 2395 minor surface

  • Depositional History and Neo-Tectonics of Rajshahi and Nawabgonj District- Miniature of Barind Tract, Bangladesh Using Sub-Surface
    International Journal of Scientific & Engineering Research Volume 9, Issue 4, April-2018 1110 ISSN 2229-5518 Depositional History and Neo-tectonics of Rajshahi and Nawabgonj District- Miniature of Barind Tract, Bangladesh Using Sub-surface Geology Shahtaj Karim, Dr. Mrinal Kanty Roy, Dr. Md. Sultan-UL- Islam Abstract—Rajshahi and Nawabgonj district occupies a portion of Barind Tract. Depositional environment and neo-tectonics of the area analyzed with the help of bore log data. About 80 no of bore logs were collected from BMDA and BWDB. Subsurface geological condition, their architectural elements as well as depositional environment was derived from those lithologs. The study area divided in to four informal units named Unit-A, Unit-B, Unit-C and Unit-D. Unit-D is further subdivided into two subunits as Subunit-1 and Subunit-2. Subunit-1 is being deposited during Recent time and Subunit-2 was deposited during Pleistocene period. Below this Unit-C, Unit-B and Unit-A is found which have been deposited during Mio-Pliocene period. The subsurface litho-succession was prepared from collected lithologs and architectural element analysis helps to understand the vertical and lateral distribution pattern of the sediments. The study area is tectonically still very active and signatures of neo-tectonic activities are found inside the subsurface sedimentary deposits. The sediments of the study area were deposited mainly under fluvial environmental condition. Index Terms— Barind Tract, Neo-tectonics, Depositional History, Bore Log. —————————— —————————— 1 INTRODUCTION The study area occupies the whole Nawabgonj and parts of sections (Fig. 1b) and panel diagram (Fig. 4) were Rajshahi district, which is situated in the northwestern part constructed to get subsurface geology, lithofacies, of Bangladesh lies within 240-240 95′ N latitudes and sedimentary architecture and their environments of 880 1′-880 95′ E longitudes (FigIJSER.

  • Promotion of Chickpea Following Rainfed Rice in the Barind Area of Bangladesh’
    FINAL TECHNICAL REPORT R7540 `Promotion of Chickpea following rainfed rice in the Barind area of Bangladesh’ Dr J Kumar PROVA ICRISAT GPO Box No. 15 Patancheru Dingadoba Andhra Pradesh 502324 Rajshahi - 6000 India Bangladesh BARI (OFRD & PRC) On-Farm Research Division Joydebpur Gazipur Bangladesh Executive Summary There is great potential for improving the livelihoods of poor farmers in the High Barind Tract (HBT) area of Bangladesh by growing chickpea on residual soil moisture after the harvest of rainfed rainy season (aman) rice. The area, covering about 2,200 km2, was traditionally left fallow after the single crop of aman rice, mainly because of the lack of irrigation potential and the hard-setting nature of the soils. Technology to permit crop establishment after rice and growth on residual soil moisture and winter rain was developed in the 1980s and implemented over the subsequent decade. Chickpea has proved to be a particularly suitable crop in this system and its area in the region has increased ten-fold from a base of around 1,000 ha in the 1980s. However, constraints to wider adoption of chickpea are: low yields due to use of inappropriate varieties; an inefficient seed supply system; insufficient knowledge by farmers of chickpea production and storage techniques; poor nodulation and nutrient deficiencies of soils in some areas; difficulties in obtaining good crop establishment as top soil dries rapidly at the end of the rice season. On-farm trials during 1998/99 demonstrated that priming chickpea seed overnight with water before sowing improved crop establishment and plant vigour, gave a 47% increase in grain yield and reduced the risk of crop failure by half.

Battle and Self-Sacrifice in a Bengali Warrior’s Epic: Lausen’s Quest to be a Raja in Dharma Ma2gal* INTRODUCTION Plots and Themes harma Ma2gal are long, narrative Bengali poems that explain and justify the worship of Lord Dharma as the D eternal, formless, and supreme god. Surviving texts were written between the mid-seventeenth and the mid-eighteenth centuries. By examining the plots of Dharma Ma2gal, I hope to describe features of a precolonial Bengali warriors” culture. I argue that Dharma Ma2gal texts describe the career of a hero and raja, and that their narratives seem to be designed both to inculcate a version of warrior culture in Bengal, and to contain it by requiring self-sacrifice in both battle and “truth ordeals.” Dharma Ma2gal *I thank Ralph W.

  • SOME JAINA ANTIQUITIES from BANKURA, WEST BENGAL In
    SOME JAINA ANTIQUITIES FROM BANKURA, WEST BENGAL By D k b a la M it b a , In course of my official tours I (^me across some interesting Jaina relics in the district of Bankura, which, I feel, should be brought to the notice of scholars, as Jaina images are generally considered to be very rare ill Bengal proper.i Apparently this area had been a stronghold of the Digambara sect of the Jainas, as all the images of the tirthaAkaras noticed by me were nude. Another reason for my drawing the attention of scholars to these medieval Jaina remains is that some of them will be submerged w Jien the Kangsabati Dam Project of ih e West Bengal Government is oompleted. It is desirable that at least the better preserved sculptural and architectural pieces described here should be removed to a place of safety in order that they may be studied further by future scholars. Ambikanagar (lat. 22° 56'; long. 86° 46').—The village (in Rani- bandh P.S.) is situated on the confluence of the Kangsabati and Kumari, 3() miles south-west of Bankura railway station. It is readily approachable ()y bus which stops at Gorabari on the northern bank of the Kangsabati. From the bus-terminus to the village, which is on the southern bank, the distance is only one mile, negotiable on foot. The village owes its name to its presiding deity, Ambika, who is now worshipped in a modern brick temple, built over the ruined plinth of an ea'-licr stone temple.
