Methodology The research was undertaken by well programmed 2. Study Area and integrated approach set up on reliable Kishangarh is a city and a municipality in Ajmer methodology for data collection, carrying out field district in the Indian state of Rajasthan. Is a city of survey, identification, selection and evaluation of marble market. It lies 18 miles north-west of result. It was completed in five phases Ajmer. It is well connected via Indian Railways Data collection. and National Highway #8. It is the birthplace of the Digital Image processing. Kishangarh style of painting, which is known for Data Integration with GIS. the beautiful depiction of a courtesan known as BaniThani. In recent years, Kishangarh has come to be known as the marble city of India. It is purported to be the only place in the world with a temple of nine planets. Kishangarh State was founded by the Jodhpur prince Kishan Singh in 1609.Prior to the rule of Kishan Singh this area was ruled by Maharaja. Who was a distant relative of Kishan Singh's family and grandfather of Naubat Khan. The ruling family of Kishangarh and the family of Naubat Khan had close ties.Maharaja Samokhan lost to the forces of Akbar and his grandson Naubat Khan was kept under house arrest.Naubat Khan later accepted Islam. A buffer in GIS is a zone around a map feature measured in units of distance or time &therefore buffer of 7Km has been used demarcating the study area. 4. Dataset The data is the backbone of any research. In order to study the change of spatial extent of growth an infra-structural facilities satellite data and Google earth data is used to generate different layers. The census data of the city was integrated with the above mentioned data to identify the demography. The kishangarh region is one of the very productive Methodology of the work involves utilization of areas of Rajasthan as far as mineral wealth is various methods, tools and techniques used to concern, particularly the marble (biggest market for assessment of Land use / Land cover change marble cutting and selling),mineral (lime rock, detection.

Due to the synoptic, repetitive nature of remote Table: LULC Cover (Km2) Kishangarh (2017) sensing based satellite data, it proved its efficiency in the preservation and conservation of natural resources. The remotely sensed data integrated with GIS data can be used to handle a vast geographical dataset. The land use/land cover change detection can be well managed and studied by using the Remote Sensing and GIS technology. A proper planning can be undertaken after a systematic and scientific analysis of satellite data of the study area in between 1971 to 2017. Land is most important and basic resource concerning the urban development. Population growth, unplanned industrialisation, urbanisation and its consequences adversely affect the regional environment. Improper land use practice results in an adverse impact on ecosystem. So the two words Land Cover and Land Use have important significance in regard to land. The results obtained through the analysis of multi-temporal satellite imageries were diagrammatically illustrated in following figures and data arc registered in Tables depicts land use/cover status, depicts land use/cover change in different land use categories and A brief account of these results is discussed in the following paragraphs. The land use statistics and changes in land use pattern derived from the satellite data of year 1971 to 2017 have presented. Fig: LU/LC Maps of A) 1971, B) 1981 & C) 1991 Fig: LULC Graph of Kishangarh (1971 to 1981) This graph is composed to compare the LULC of 1971, 1981 & 1991. The result derived shows that how area has increased under each category i.e. Fig: LU/LC Map of Kishangarh (2017) Settlement, Water body & Industries in the respective years.

This article is an attempt to understand the contours and history of Thar Desert of Rajasthan and to explore the features that have kept the various desert states (Jodhpur, Jaisalmer, Barmer, Bikaner etc.) and their populace sustaining in this region throughout the ages, even when this region had scarce water resources and intense desert with huge and extensive dunes. Through political control the dynasts kept the social organisation intact which ensured regular incomes for their respective dynasties. Through the participation of various social actors this dry and hot desert evolved as a massive trade emporium. The intense trade activities of Thar Desert kept the imperial centres intact in this agriculturally devoid zone. In the harsh environmental conditions, limited means, resources and the objects, the settlers of this desert were able to create a huge economy that sustained effectively. The economy build by them not only allowed the foundation and formation of the states, it also ensured their continuation and expansion over the centuries.

    THE INDIAN YEAR BOOK A STATISTICAL AND HISTORICAL ANNUAL OF' THE INDIAN EMPIRE, WITH AN EXPLANATION OF THE PRINCIPAL TOPICS OF THE DAY EDITED BY STANLEY REED, LL.D. SECOND YEAR OF ISSUE. PUBUSHED BY BENNETT, CoLEMAN & Co., LTD., THE "TIMBS OF INDIA" OFFICES, BOMBAY & CALCUTTA. LONDON OFFICE: 99. SHOE LANE, E. C. PREFACE. In the preface to the first issue of the Indian Year Book, the Editor appealed to the public continuously to edit it, for only in this manner could it assume and retain the qualities requisite in a current handbook to the Indian Empire. · The appeal met with a very welcome response. Whilst the proverbial kindness of tho English reading public induced many grateful words of appreciation, many valuable suggestions were offered, which ha.ve been incorporated in the second. issue so far as possible. H the response has not in all cases been as adequate as was desired, I hope that the critics will appreciate the difficulties of editing the Year Book during a great war. Not only did the war throw a heavy burden of work upon every journalist during the months when the work of revision was. most active, but it also impaire.d the capacity for help of those valued colleagues to whose co-operation so much of the success which has been attained by the Indian Year Book is due . ..4.mongst the new features introduced in response to these suggestions is a. review of the work of the Legislative Councils. The summary of the proceed­ ings of tho Impe~Lcgislative Council has been made as complete as poBBihle; those of the Provincial Councils are naturally ~horter.
