However,due to rapidly increasing population in Thane district there has been some alteration in the natural scenario of Thane district.Let us explain the natural scenario of Thane district in brie manner. The following points give a brief idea about the natural picture of Thane district. 4.3.1 Location and geographical Area: From geographical point of view ,Thane district is regarded as the, the northern-most district of Konkan region of Maharashtra. Thane district also touches the Arabian Sea in the north-west of Maharashtra States. Geographically Thane district extends between 18*42’ and 20*20’ north latitude and 72*45’ and 73*48’ east longitude. The northern part of Thane district touches the Union territories of Dadra, Nagar Haveli and the Gujarat state. Nasik districts and Ahmednagar districts are to the east of Thane district, Pune district is to the South –East of Thane district. Raigad district lies to the south of Thane 108 district and Mumbai Metropolitan lies to the South –West of Thane district. It means that Nashik,AhmedNagar,Raigad,Pune and Mumbai are the neighbouring areas of Thane district. As far as,the structure of Thane district is concerned , naturally the structure of Thane district is triangular. “The total geographical area of the district is 9558 Sq.KMS which is 3.11% of the total Maharashtra area”. 4 4.3.2 TOPOGRAPHY of Thane District: Topography refers to the arrangement of natural and artificial physical features of an area.On the basis of topography, Thane district can be divided into 3 parts: 1 In the Eastern area of Thane district, Sahyadri hills are spread and in the northern region of Thane district dense forest area is situated. 2 The Central Region of the Thane district is mostly flat area .This area is well-known for Rice . 3 In the coastal part Vegetables , Fruits and high quality of grass are cultivated . 4.3.3 Soil in Thane District: As far as soil in Thane district is concerned,there are mainly three types of soil inThane district. Regur soil, red soil and brownish black soil are types of soil which are found in Thane district. These three type of soils have different uses. Regur soil is fertile and useful for horticulture and for cultivation of paddy and vegetables. This soil is found mainly in Dahanu, Palghar, Vasai and Thane tehsils. Red soil another important soil in Thane district. It is very useful for growing coarse millets. This soil is found in Mokhada, Talasari and some parts of other tehsils on the eastern slopes Brownish black soil is found in Bhiwandi, Kalyan and Shahapur tehsils.This soil is used mainly for paddy cultivation. 109 4.3.4 Mountainous Region in Thane District: The Sahyadri ranges, having unbroken boundary run North South in the Eastern region of the district. There are also spurs running laterally to the main ranges. The heights of the mountains are maximum on the East and diminish gradually Westwards. The mountain ranges also spread unevenly in the Central region of the district. But none of them rises higher than Sahyadries. Yeoor Hills or Mama Bhanja Hills is a hill station in Thane district. This naturally beautiful and pollution free area attracts lot of people. 4.3.5 FOREST Area in Thane District: It is very important to study about the forest area of Thane district.So that we can get idea about the areas occupied by the forest in Thane district. In Thane district,the forest area extends upto 3463 Sq.kms.It means that 37.10 % of the total area of Thane district is occupied by forest. Out of this total forest area, 80.51% area is spread in Shahapur, Palghar, Jawhar, Wada, Murbad, Dahanu and Vasai talukas and in remaining talukas it is spread only 19.49%.In Thane district, the important forest products are Hirda,Sag, Ain, ,and Timber wood which is used generally for construction purpose. Thus in Thane district, the forest products are very valuable. Forest are the important source of raw material to those industries which are manufacturing wood products in Thane district. Also there are many medicinal plants in the forest area of Thane district. But it is very shocking to note that the forest area has been decreasing in Thane district due to growing population. Decrease of forest area area in Thane district will lead to ecological imbalance in Thane district.Some urgent steps are required to protect the forest areas in Thane district. 4.3.6 Climate of Thane District: As far as climate of Thane district is concerned , in Thane district there are two distinct climates .one climate is on the western coastal plains and the other climate is on the eastern slopes of Sahyadri.There is great difference between the climate on western coastal plains and the climate on the eastern slopes of Sahyadri.

Firstly, to clarify property rights, by ensuring that land records maintained by the State mirror the reality on the ground. A discordance between the two, i.e., records and reality, implies that it is dicult to ascertain and assert rights over land. Secondly, land record modernisation aims to reduce the costs involved for the citizen to access and correct records easily in order to ensure that the records are updated in a timely manner. This report aims to map, on a pilot basis, the progress of the DILRMP, a Centrally Sponsored Scheme, in the State of Maharashtra.

K. Puram, New Delhi-110066 FOREWORD Salinity is a significant challenge and poses risks to sustainable development of Coastal regions of India. If left unmanaged, salinity has serious implications for water quality, biodiversity, agricultural productivity, supply of water for critical human needs and industry and the longevity of infrastructure. The Coastal Salinity has become a persistent problem due to ingress of the sea water inland. This is the most significant environmental and economical challenge and needs immediate attention. The coastal areas are more susceptible as these are pockets of development in the country. Most of the trade happens in the coastal areas which lead to extensive migration in the coastal areas. This led to the depletion of the coastal fresh water resources. Digging more and more deeper wells has led to the ingress of sea water into the fresh water aquifers turning them saline. The rainfall patterns, water resources, geology/hydro-geology vary from region to region along the coastal belt.

However, in recent years, while declining HIV trends are evident at the national level as well as in most of the States, some low prevalence and vulnerable States have shown rising trends, warranting focused prevention efforts in specific areas. The National AIDS Control Programme (NACP) is strongly evidence-based and evidence-driven.
