By ‘choices’, it refers to the following: greater access to knowledge; better nutrition and health services; secured livelihoods; security against crime and physical violence; satisfying leisure hours; political and cultural freedoms; sense of participation in community activities The objective of development is to create an enabling environment for people to enjoy long, healthy and creative lives with freedom and dignity. The Human Development concept places human beings and their wellbeing at the core of development thinking and emphasises that people’s development is an end in itself and not a means for development. Central to human development are participation, especially of the vulnerable sections in the process of change and equity in development gains. The Human Development concept focuses on the diversity of human needs by highlighting that people do enjoy, cherish and value self –respect, dignity and a sense of belongingness to one’s own community apart from the income they earn. It considers efficiency, equity, freedom and empowerment, and the sustainability as the four important pillars. These pillars are considered as prerequisites for achieving the human development outcomes. The characteristics of human development concept reveal that it is dynamic and that it keeps evolving; it is multidimensional, inter-disciplinary and pragmatic in nature. Overall, the concept of Human Development emphasises on the three aspects: building of human Capabilities; enhancement of Freedom; process of achieving Outcomes. The progress in the human development framework is judged not by the expanding prosperity of the rich, but by how well the poor and socially disadvantaged are faring in society. Implicit in this perspective is not only a strong concern for equity and social justice but also a firm conviction that improvements in the wellbeing of the poor are fundamental to ensuring a better life not just for them but for all. 1 1.2 Need for the District Human Development Report The State Planning Commission proposes that District Human Development Reports need to be prepared to gain deeper understanding of the issues at the district and sub-district level. As the 73 rd and 74 th constitutional amendments mandate the preparation of district level plans, it is envisaged that this DHDR will give an opportunity for preparing district plans from a human development perspective. In other words, it would do so by analysing the status of human development attainment and key human development challenges faced with a special focus on efficiency of delivery systems and financial allocations. The DHDR is viewed as an instrument for policy making on social development expenditure to improve the HD indices. The specific objectives envisaged through the DHDR are to provide a comprehensive view of the status of human development and gender development at the district level; to highlight the critical concerns and issues so as to examine emerging challenges and also solutions; to highlight and analyse policy intervention of government in the arena of human development in the district, to improve human development and gender development at the district level; to promote deeper understanding of the challenges; to advocate policy dialogue in recognition of the need for equity, people centred policy focus and to create an environment for achieving human development. Above all, the preparation of a district human development report would mark the beginning of a process whereby district plans are designed and implemented through a human development prism. Among the thirty two districts of Tamil Nadu, Kanyakumari is one which is known for its good performance in human development indicators. This district is unique in terms of its physiographic conditions of having lands of mountains, sea coast and the strip of undulating valley. It is also known for its abundance of natural resources, scenic beauties and favourable agro climatic conditions. This chapter attempts to give an overview of the district by discussing the history, demography, geographical features and livelihoods such as agriculture, forestry and fisheries along with the status of transport and communication. 1.3 History During the pre-independence period, Kanyakumari district formed part of the Travancore princely state. The district was quite rich and prosperous due to its natural beauty in terms of greenaries, wetlands, rivers, paddy fields, mountains and sea coast which is evident from 2 the scriptures that depicts the adoration of the poets and naturalists. This richness in fact had attracted constant invasion across the Aralvaimozhi pass and the kings had built strong forts against the invading armies. After the independence, the district remained as part of Travancore- Cochin State till the reorganisation of states on linguistic basis in 1956, when the States Reorganisation Act was came into existence, the four taluks of the Tiruvananthapuram merged with the Tamil speaking Madras State (now Chennai). The present form of district was formed on 1 st November 1956. The name of the district is traced back to the Goddess Kanyakumari, situated near the sea shore in the southernmost tip of the country. 1.4 Geography and Administrative Set-up Kanyakumari district is situated in the southernmost part of the Indian peninsula surrounded by Kerala state in the west and north-west, Tirunalveli district in the north and east, Gulf of Mannar in the south-east, Indian Ocean in the south and Arabian Sea in the south-west. It is the smallest district in Tamil Nadu and has a total area of 1,684 sq km which is 1.295 percent of the total area of the state. It lies between 77°15’ and 77°36’ of the eastern longitude and 8°03’ and 8°35’ of the north latitude. Geographically, the district has three distinct divisions- mountains in the north favouring plantation crops, a flat sea-coast in the south suitable for growing fibre crops of coconut and an alluvial tract in the midland suitable for cultivating cereal crops. Except for the Thovalai taluk with a long hilly track, other three taluks have a stretch of coastal area. The soil type is mostly red loam and laterite with coastal alluvium in the south which favours cultivation of diversified crops. The district has a warm and humid climate with the maximum day temperature ranging between 29°C and 33°C all through the year and with an average annual rainfall of 145 cm. This district is distinct in terms of receiving good rainfall during both the monsoons of South West (June-September) and North East (October-December), which is very unlikely in other districts of Tamil Nadu. Apart from the rain, there are five rivers namely Thamiraparani, Valliyur, Ponnivaikal, Pampoorivaikal and pazhayar flowing in the district which fulfil the requirements of the district. 3 Administrative set-up of the district includes two revenue divisions 1, four taluks 2 and nine blocks 3. There are 97 village panchayats, 56 town panchayats and four municipalities. The district has its headquarters based at Nagercoil.

  • CHAPTER-I! FORMATION of DEVASWOM DEPARTMENT The
    CHAPTER-I! FORMATION OF DEVASWOM DEPARTMENT The year 1811 is important in the history of temple administration in Travancore as it was the year in which the state government assumed direct management of 348 major and 1123 minor devaswoms on the initiative of resident dewan, Col. Munro, with the approval of the sovereign, Rani Gowri Lakshmi Bai (1810- 1815). The reasons stated by Col. Munro for assumption of such temples were many and manifold. The sannad written by him on 3rd Kanni 987 M.E (September 1811) was a clear evidence to substantiate the reasons attributed to his act of assumption of temples'. The Circumstances which lead to the formation of the devaswom department originated from the ugly state of administration of temples by the uralars, the temple trustees, that culminated into the take over of such temples by Col. Munro. He said, "The devaswom affairs in this country have long been the 1 Col.Munro, Anu of Sannad addressed to the Nine Mukathu Sarvathikariakars, 987 M.E(A.D. 1811) 31 subject of my anxiety, because the landed properties of devaswoms are uncultivated and yield no revenue and on account of frauds, there are heavy arrears and defaults in ceremonies in the devaswoms. Frauds and discrepancies are taking place in the expenditure laid down for the devaswoms and in connection with pattuparivattam (cloth for the idol), thiruvabharanam (ornaments for the idol) and temple vessels 2". He also pointed out that the temples were not being thatched or repaired from time to time and they were in a dilapidated condition.

This society’s ever-present fear of being engulfed by a demographically expanding, English-speaking populace has contributed to a heightened level of metalinguistic awareness among French- speaking Québécois citizens. For the residents of Montreal, this metalinguistic aware- ness appears to be even more acute. Often characterized by scholars, politicians, and media as an inassimilable, globalizing element located within the otherwise
