Available from: The Controller, Printing and Stationery, Haryana, Chandigarh (India). Printed By : Controller of Printing and Stationery, Government of Haryana, Chandigarh. PREFACE TO REPRINTED EDITION The District Gazetteer is a miniature encyclopaedia and a good guide. It describes all important aspects and features of the district; historical, physical, social, economic and cultural. Officials and other persons desirous of acquainting themselves with the salient features of the district would find a study of the Gazetteer rewarding. It is of immense use for research scholars. The old gazetteers of the State published in the British regime contained very valuable information, which was not wholly reproduced in the revised volume. These gazetteers have gone out of stock and are not easily available. There is a demand for these volumes by research scholars and educationists. As such, the scheme of reprinting of old gazetteers was taken on the initiative of the Hon'ble Chief Minister of Haryana. The Ambala District Gazetteer of 1923-24 was compiled and published under the authority of Punjab Govt. The author mainly based its drafting on the assessment and final reports of the Settlement Officers. The Volume is the reprinted edition of the Ambala District Gazetteer of 1923-24. This is the ninth in the series of reprinted gazetteers of Haryana. Every care has been taken in maintaining the complete originality of the old gazetteer while reprinting.

  • Mobile Phones Based Agro-Advisories Role in Gender Empowerment Surabhi Mittal International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center (CIMMYT) India [email protected]
    Mobile phones based agro-advisories role in gender empowerment Surabhi Mittal International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center (CIMMYT) India [email protected] Abstract Mobile phone-enabled information delivery mechanism has the potential to reduce the knowledge gap between large and small farmers, and also across gender by creating awareness. This paper focuses on how women are receptive to the information that they receive through mobile phones, how the access to information through the mobile phone has helped them to feel empowered? What kind of information they value? And what potentially it means for their empowerment? This is done by analyzing listening behavior of farmers both men and women towards information provided through mobile phones. The study is undertaken in selected villages of two states of India Haryana and Bihar and thus also present some contrasting results across the two states. Female farmers feel that the agro advisories have helped them to increase their knowledge about farming practices which includes information about modern technologies and best practices. Keywords: India, mobile phones, information, gender empowerment Jel Codes: Q12 and Q16 1 1. Introduction Indian agriculture has suffered from low growth and low productivity in last two decades and this has been attributed to major challenges that include deficits in physical infrastructure, poor availability of agricultural inputs such as seed, fertilizer and agri-related services in rural areas, and farmers’ poor access to information about modern technologies and best practices. (Kumar and Rosegrant, 1994; Mittal and Kumar, 2000; Evenson et al., 1999; Fan et al., 1999; Singh, 2002). Several studies recently conducted in South Asia and Africa have shown the potential of modern ICT’s (Information and Communication technologies).

Similarly, a socio-ecological framework helps us to understand the nexus between social equity, environmental sustainability, and economic efficiency. India is urbanizing rapidly with characteristic inequality and conflicts across the social, economic, and locational axes. Following the global pattern, Indian cities use social and natural resources of the rural hinterland and their own resources for survival and growth and, in the process, generate large amount of waste. Water is the most important ‘resource flow’ in an urban area, driven by a complex set of intersecting socio-economic, political, infrastructural, hydrological, and other factors. These drivers vary a great deal within a city and has a significant impact on the water flow and management and requires both micro and macro level study in order to address it.

Printed by: Controller of Printing and Stationery Department, Union Territroy, Chandigarh FOREWORD A district gazetteer is not merely a statistical report on the economic development in the district. It brings out all the facets of life in the district, depicting its history, geography and its people. It should thus prove of use to the administrators in knowing the district. The Jind district with its varied history of administration, lies west of kurukshetra and karnal districts. It is a land of legendary and the sacred Sarasvati. The town of Jind is believed to have been founded at the time of Mahabharata, when the Pandvas built a temple in honour of Jainti Devi (Goddess of victory). The town Jaintapuri grew up around the temple, which later got corrupted to Jind. The district has many places of pilgrimage. I am thankful to the Chief Minister and the Revenue Minister for the encouragement they gave to the Gazetteer staff. CHANDIGARH: April, 1986. L.C. GUPTA Financial Commissioner, Revenue, Haryana. PREFACE This volume is the sixth in the series of the revised District Gazetteers of Haryana. It has been prepared on the pattern laid down by the Government of India. Before Independence (1947), the district was under the different Princely States; jind and Safidon tahsils formed part of Jind State while Narwana tahsil formed a part of Princely State of Patiala.

Senior Secondary School, Garhi Jattan, Karnal, Haryana E-mail:- [email protected] ABSTRACT The present research work was carried out during September 2009 to March 2014 to investigate the avian biodiversity of Sultanpur National Park in Haryana, India. In all, 161 species of birds belonging to 16 orders and 47 families were observed from the Sultanpur National Park. Out of these 161 species of Birds, 99 species of birds were Resident, 41 species winter migratory, 11 species local migratory and 10 species of birds were summer migratory. The present study revealed that 155 species of birds were Least Concern, two species of birds like Saras Crane (Grus antigone) and White-necked Stork (Ciconia episcopus) were vulnerable and four species of birds like Black-necked Stork (Ephippiorhynchus asiaticus), Painted Stork (Mycteria leucocephala), Darter (Anhinga melanogaster) and Oriental White Ibis (Threskiornis melanocephalus) were near Threatened as per IUCN Red Data Book. The present studies tempt to suggest that Sultanpur National Park need to be further strengthened by ensuring water throughout the year in the accompaniment of massive implantation of Ficus religiosa, Ficus bengalensis, Azadirachta indica, Acasia nilotica and Mangifera indica trees to serve as the best roosting and breeding ground for Painted Stork, White-necked Stork, Black-necked Stork and platforms may be developed to encourage proliferation of Saras Crane and White-necked Stork.

It is a multipurpose hand book dealing not merely with geographical data; it is essenti- ally a narration of the socio-economic changes which take place in the district. The book, therefore, concerns itself with the people and their environs viewed in the context of histori- cal change . Since the formation of Haryana, eight years back, pro- gress in this new State has been rapid. The entire socio-econo- mic pattern has been completely transformed and it can be said that within this period the State has achieved a break-through vitally affecting the welfare and prosperity of the people. The present book is an attempt to portray the all round progress made by the district since the last publication. I am thankful to Dr K.C. Khanna who revised the volume before its publication and, in particular, to the Chief Minister and the Revenue Minister for the support given by them to the Gazetteers staff. Chandigarh, S. D.
