  • Title of the Project: Monitoring of Migratory Birds at Selected Water Bodies of Murshidabad District
    REPORT ON THE PROJECT 2020 Title of the project: Monitoring of Migratory Birds at selected water bodies of Murshidabad district Submitted by Santi Ranjan Dey Department of Zoology, Rammohan College, 102/1, Raja Rammohan Sarani, Kolkata 09 2020 REPORT ON THE PROJECT Title of the project: Monitoring of Migratory Birds at selected water bodies of Murshidabad District: Introduction: The avian world has always been a fascination to the human world and has been a subject of our studies. Mythological documents hold a number of examples of birds being worshiped as goods with magical powers by the ancient civilizations. Even today winged wonders continue to be the subject of our astonishment primarily because of their ability to fly, their ability to build extraordinarily intricate nests, and of course, the brilliant colour of their plumage – features that no human being can replicate. Taxonomically birds are categorized in “Orders” “Families” and “Genera” and “species”. But overall they are divided into two groups: Passeriformes (or Passerines) and Non Passeriformes (non passerines). At least 60% of all bird species are Passeriformes or song birds, their distinguishing characteristics being their specialized leg structure, vocal structure and brain-wiring which allows them to produce complex songs. The non- passerine comprises 28 out of 29 orders of birds in the world. Throughout the world approximately 11,000 species are found. India is having 1301 species. West Bengal has 57.69% of the total avian fauna (750 species). Though there are many nomenclatures used by different people, we followed “Standardized common and scientific names of birds of Indian subcontinent by Manakadan and Pittie (2001).” Identification of bird is generally based on combination of various characteristics.

Around 24blocks (out of 26) are severely affected by the contamination. This paper tries to investigate the causes, socio economic impacts of arsenic contamination in the Murshidabad. It also tries to find the mitigation measures from this cumulative disaster with special reference to Majhyampur Surface based piped water supply scheme in Beldanga I Block. The study reveals that the Majhyampur Water treatment project make a great impact on Beldanga I Block but it is also true that the people of these area can’t afford this arsenic free water as it is costly. So a sustainable and holistic approach might free these people from this disaster.

  • REGIONAL IMBALANCE in BODY MASS INDEX and HEALTH STATUS: a COMPARATIVE STUDY by RELIGION and CASTES in MURSHIDABAD DISTRICT, WEST BENGAL Dr
    International Journal of Scientific Research and Modern Education (IJSRME) ISSN (Online): 2455 – 5630 (www.rdmodernresearch.com) Volume I, Issue I, 2016 REGIONAL IMBALANCE IN BODY MASS INDEX AND HEALTH STATUS: A COMPARATIVE STUDY BY RELIGION AND CASTES IN MURSHIDABAD DISTRICT, WEST BENGAL Dr. S. Waseem Ahmad Ashraf* & Dr. Sabbir Ahmed** * Associate Professor, Department of Geography, Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh, Uttar Pradesh ** Senior Researcher, Department of Geography, Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh, Uttar Pradesh Abstract: Body Mass Index (BMI) is a ratio of a person’s height and weight. It is a simple calculation of mass in kilograms (kg) divided by height in meters (m) squared (BMI= kg/ (m2). Those with low BMIs may be at risk for malnutrition, osteoporosis and/or an eating disorder. Those with high BMIs may be at risk for heart disease, diabetes and cancer. BMI can be helpful for a quick screen or for assessing entire populations; however it is not always accurate for evaluating individual people. The present paper aims at examining the close relationship between Body Mass Index and Health Status of population in Murshidabad District of West Bengal. The data for the analysis have been obtained from the primary sources (Field Survey, 2012). The paper suggests that enhancement of caloric intake shall reduce the disparities in Body Mass Index and Health Status in Murshidabad District. Key Words: Body Mass Index, Health Status, Regional Imbalance, Caloric Intake, Overweight, Underweight & Obese Introduction: One of the serious problem that world is facing today is the problem of regional imbalances. In India regional imbalances exist at state level, district and even block level also.

Jalangi is one of the Nadia Rivers RI WKH GLVWULFW RI 1DGLD LQ :HVW %HQJDO DQG FODVVL¿HG DV PRULEXQG ULYHU6RLOFXWWLQJE\EULFN¿HOGVIURPEDQNVDQGEHGRIWKHULYHUKDV transformed it into literally a dead river. Present paper, based on both primary as well as secondary data will focus on this greedy bustle of man on the river and its impact on deltaic moribund river channels. Keywords: khadan, bank erosion, bank material, soil-cutting, river jalangi Introduction uring British colonial rule, three rivers of moribund deltaic Bengal namely River Bhagirathi, River Mathabhanga and River DJalanti came to be known as Nadia Rivers (Majumder, 1978: Biswas 2001; Bagchi, 1978). River Jalangi, which has been the focus of the paper, is one of the distributaries of the River Padma which takes-off from at Jalangi, a settlement of the district of Murshidabad from which the river got its name during 18 th century (Rennel, 1788; Bhattacharya, 1959; Biswas 2001; Chakraborty 1972). However, after leaving Padma at 24°04´30´´N and 88°43´00´´E, (Bhattacharya, 1963; James Fergusson, 1912; Majaumder, 1941, 1978, 1985) River Jalangi pursues a meandering course along the north-west border of Nadia district for 90.5 km, up to Gopinathpur and Sahebnagar villages of P.S.Tehatta-I and P.S.Tehatta-II respectively.

    RESEARCH PAPER Science Volume : 3 | Issue : 2 | February 2013 | ISSN - 2249-555X Types and Sources of Flood in Murshidabad, West Bengal KEYWORDS Murshidabad, Types of Flood, Sources of Flood Swati Mollah Asst. Prof. in Geography, Department of Geography, Dumkal College, P.O. Basantapur, Dumkal, Murshidabad ABSTRACT Flood is defined as abnormal high stage of flow which overtops the natural or artificial river banks in any reach and causes immense loss of crops, property, human lives and lines of communication. It is a natural event that results from excess runoff generated from a drainage basin due to severe combination of critical hydrologic and meteorological condi- tions over the region. Murshidabad district is affected by frequent heavy flooding, drainage congestion and bank erosion, resulting in extensive submergence of land, loss of life and property and dislocation of the communication system. At times, the period of flood above danger level is 40 to 70 days. The present study aims to find out the main sources of occurrence of flood other than rainfall and their regional distribution. The paper identifies river bank erosion, overflow of western tributar- ies and discharge from dam, water logging from feeder canal, decay of spill channel and drainage congestion and overflow from the Ganga/Padma as the main sources of flood in Murshidabad. This study will help formulate of plans for flood man- agement according to the types of flood in the district and further detail study of sources of flood. INTRODUCTION es between 23˚43′- 24˚50′ N and 89˚49′- 88˚46′ E in cen- Two main rivers in Murshidabad are the Ganga-Padma and tral West Bengal.
