Upon successful collection of relevant data, the TA teams then visited several sites that are related to WATSAN assets and performed an in depth study to understand the vulnerability of each asset against different climate change threats. The current baseline report of Chitwan district is purely based on the information obtained from the respective government agencies during the visits to those offices and the observations made by the TA teamduring the site visits. 1.1 Chitwan Sector Master Plan Chitwan District Fig 1: Location ofChitwan District in Map of Nepal Ratnanagar Parsa BharatpurMunicipality Fig 2: Chitwan district map showingBharatpurMunicipality, Ratnagar Municipality and Parsa 1 MOSTE | Mainstreaming climate change risk management in development | WATSAN-Urban District Baselines Fig 3: View of BharatpurMunicipality from a hill on the opposite bank of Narayani River Chitwan district one of the seventy five districts in Nepal is located in the inner Tarai areas of Narayani Zone in the Central Development Region. The district takes its name from the Chitwan valley one of Nepal's Inner Tarai Valleys between the Mahabharat and Siwalik ranges, both considered as foothills of the Himalayas. It covers an area of about 2,218 Sq. km and Bharatpur Municipality is its district headquarters. Chitwan district is centrally located in the country and is made of 40 VDCs and two urban centres such as Bharatpur Municipality(BM) and Ratnanagar Municipality(RM). Among the people of the district Tharu community had been the original inhabitants. However,Chitwan experienced a large scale in- migration of people from nearby northern mountain districts in last few decades and the Tharus have been far outnumbered by other newly migrated people now. Other ethnic groups in Chitwan are Brahmins, Chhetris, Newars, Gurungs, Magars,Tamangs, Madhesis, Dalits etc. As per the recent National census of 2012, the population of the district is 579,984 out of which 279,087 are male and 300,897 are female. Nevertheless the temporary floating population in BM has been ignored in the figure. It is the most densely populated district and also one of the most sought for as it is still experiencing a very high in- migration of people from other parts of the country. People are migrating to this district in large number because of various reasons; some of the main reasons are outlined below: Chitwan district is centrally located in the country and it lies on the East-West Highway and on the cross-road(junction) leading to Kathmandu valley, Pokhara valley and many other districts in the north; it is made of fertile agricultural flat plains which are yielding abundant production of rice, lintels, vegetables etc. many people in the area are going for large scale commercial farming like poultry farming, honey bee farming etc.; it is easily accessible from other districts because of the existing road networks and its appropriate location; it is a popular tourist destination because of Chitwan National Park; it is coming out as a potential industrial area as several small and medium scale industries are already located here and more are upcoming, and Narayanghat town located on the bank of Narayani river in Bharatpur Municipality is an old and very busy commercial centre with many business activities. Bharatpur Municipality being the district head-quarters, has all district level government offices. Also it has large hospitals, many hotels and lodges, two major medical colleges, numerous banks and 2 MOSTE | Mainstreaming climate change risk management in development | WATSAN-Urban District Baselines financial institutions and other different institutions of higher learning etc. in its area and surroundings. It has relatively better infrastructures and other physical facilities. It has an airport and is well connected to Kathmandu by air with several daily flights. Regarding water supply and sanitation(WATSAN) in Chitwan district, while the rural water supply and sanitation is under the jurisdiction of Department of Water Supply and Sewerage(DWSS), the urban water supply in Bharatpur Municipality and Ratnanagar Municipality are looked after

Conservation and the linpact of Relocation on the Tharus of Chitwan, Nepal Joanne McLean Charles Sturt University (Australia) Since the establishment of the first national park in the United States in the nineteenth century, indig­ enous peoples have been forced to move from regions designated as parks. Some of these people have been relocated to other areas by the government, more often they have been told to leave the area and are given no alternatives (Clay, 1985:2). Introduction (Guneratne 1994; Skar 1999). The Thant are often de­ scribed as one people. However, many subgroups exist: The relocation of indigenous people from national Kochjla Tharu in the eastern Tarai, Chitwaniya and Desauri parks has become standard practice in developing coun­ in the central Tarai, and Kathariya, Dangaura and Rana tries with little regard for the impacts it imposes on a Tharu in the western Tarai (Meyer & Deuel, 1999).

  • A Yellow-Throated Marten Martes Flavigula Carrying a Small Indian Civet Viverricula Indica
    A Yellow-throated Marten Martes flavigula carrying a Small Indian Civet Viverricula indica Babu Ram LAMICHHANE1*, Chiranjibi Prasad POKHERAL1, Ambika Prasad KHATIWADA1, Rama MISHRA2 and Naresh SUBEDI1 Abstract Yellow-throated Marten Martes flavigula has a wide geographic distribution, but little is known about its ecology and behaviour. A camera-trap survey in and around Chitwan National Park, Nepal, photographed a solitary Marten carrying a Small Indian Civet Viverricula indica. The animal was in a grassland patch amid Sal Shorea robusta forest. It is unclear whether the Marten killed the Civet. Recent camera-trap surveys suggest that Yellow-throated Marten is widespread in Chitwan NP with records from altitudes of 190–675 m; many records are from Sal forest.
