District maps of 1981 publication have been reproduced in this volume. The boundary of Meghalaya shown on the map of India is as interpreted from the North-eastern areas (Reorganization)Act,1971,but has yet to be verified (applicable to India map only) The territorial waters oflndia extend into the sea to a distance of twelve nautical miles measured from the appropriate base line, (c) Government of India Copyright 2001 FOREWORD "Regional Divisions of India - A Cartographic Analysis" of each State and Union Territory Volume, 1991 is undertaken by the Map Division of this office. The project is in continuation of a similar 'Occasional Paper' published during the 1981 Census. In this study, regions are delineated at macro, meso, micro and sub-micro level in each state/ union territory. while delineating such regions, the physio-geographic factors are taken into account. These physio-geographic factors consist Q( (i) Physiography; (ii) Geological structure; (iii) Forest coverage; (iv) Climatic conditions and (v) soils. The sub-micro regions are delineated within the district keeping in view the above physio-geographic factors. The regional boundaries delineated earlier at different levels are retained as such. however, the jurisdictional changes at the district level during 1981-91 were added in the respective regions. A few more tables and maps on educational level of primary and secondary schools and availability of medical facilities at the villages, have been appended in this volume. This publication consists of three parts. Part I contains the brief introductory note on Regional Divisions of India along with a map of India showing the regional boundaries at micro level. This part is common for all the States and Union Territories Volume. Part II deals with the description of Regional Divisions of each State and Union Territory. In this section, there are nearly 21 maps related to different themes e.g. density, sex ratio, growth of population, workers, literacy and the Scheduled Castes and the Scheduled Tribes. These maps are prepared at the sub-micro level. Part III is mainly devoted to presentation of data and maps of the districts. The districts are divided into sub-micro regions of the fourth order and brief analysis of each of these sub-micro regions is written and supported by tables relating to the main demographic theme of the districts. This project is executed under the technical supervision of Dr. RP. Singh, Assistant Registrar General (Map) and other officers and staff of the Map Division of this office and Directorates of Census Operations of StateslUnion Territories. The officers and the staff associated with this project are acknowledged separately. An effort is made to publish this volume on Compact Discs also for the convenience of the users. I hope this publication will be useful for administrators, geographers, demographers and others interested in different fields of popUlation study. New Delhi J.K. Bantbia Registrar General and Dated: 30.01.2001 Census Commissioner, India (iii) PREFACE Maiden attempt was made to bring out this publication at StatelUnion Territory level in the history of Census Organisation in 1981 Census wherein the sub-micro regions at district level were delineated, so that it would serve as a useful framework for administrators, planners, scholars and other data users for area specific planning. The efforts of Census Organisation was highly appreciated by the data using agencies and hence it was decided to continue the pUblication in 1991 Census. The present study is in continuation of 1981 project and incorporates more data tables and maps on workers, non­ workers, with ruraVurban break-up, the scheduled castes, scheduled tribes and literates at sub-micro level. The 1981 report contained the data on population and density only. While delineating the whole country into second order region, viz., Meso region, the entire state of Gujarat has been placed under the Gujarat Plain. It forms part of the first order region, i.e, Macro region called 'The Coastal Plains and Islands'. On the basis of the homogenetic characteristics, state has been further divided into 4 micro regions and 92 sub-micro regions at district level. All these regions are inhabited. The present pUblication has been divided into three parts. The first part indicates the general note on Regional Divisions of India, including map and statement upto 3rd order regions at all India level. This part has been finalised by the Map Division at the Headquarters. The second part deals with the brief description of regionalisation in the state, along with map and data table highlighting regions upto 4th tier hierarchical order. In addition, 19 state level maps on various themes like physical, popUlation, sex ratio, literacy, percentage of the scheduled castes and the scheduled tribes popUlation, working population as main workers in the region have also been incorporated in this portion. The last part presents the brief analysis of regions on each district and is also supported by various data tables. This volume will help in comparative study of various development during 1991- 2001. In my own office, the entire work of this volume was carried out by the staff of Map Section headed by Shri Ch. Rajeev, Sr. Geographer under the able supervision of Shri J.P. Purohit, Research Officer (Map). A list of the staff closely associated with this publication is given separately. I express my appreciation to all of them. I am sincere thankful to Shri N.R. Varsani, Ex-Director of Census Operations for conducting smooth and successful of 1991 Census Operations (v) The whole work of this project was done under the able guidance of Shri.

  • Climate Change for the Current Spike in Temperatures, As the Time Frame Represents a Relatively Limited Chunk of Data
    Heat waves Heat Wave Duration Index is that a heat wave occurs when the daily maximum temperature of more than five consecutive days exceeds the average maximum temperature by 5 °C (9 °F). A heat wave is a prolonged period of excessively hot weather, which may be accompanied by high humidity, especially in oceanic climate countries. While definitions vary, a heat wave is measured relative to the usual weather in the area and relative to normal temperatures for the season. Temperatures that people from a hotter climate consider normal can be termed a heat wave in a cooler area if they are outside the normal climate pattern for that area. The term is applied both to hot weather variations and to extraordinary spells of hot which may occur only once a century. Severe heat waves have caused catastrophic crop failures, thousands of deaths from hyperthermia, and widespread power outages due to increased use of air conditioning. A heat wave is considered extreme weather and a danger because heat and sunlight may overheat the human body. Warms up to 102 °F (39 °C). Health Impacts of Heat Waves The health impacts of Heat Waves typically involve dehydration, heat cramps, heat exhaustion and/or heat stroke. The signs and symptoms are as follows: Heat Cramps: Ederna (swelling) and Syncope (Fainting) generally accompanied by fever below 39*C i.e.102*F. Heat Exhaustion: Fatigue, weakness, dizziness, headache, nausea, vomiting, muscle cramps and sweating. Heat Stoke: Body temperatures of 40*C i.e. 104*F or more along with delirium, seizures or coma.

  • Morbi District Is Located in the Saurashtra Region of Indian State of Gujarat
    Morbi District is located in the Saurashtra region of Indian state of Gujarat. It was formed on August 15, 2013, on the 67th Independence Day of India. The district has 5 talukas - Morbi, Maliya, Tankara, Wankaner and Halvad. This district is surrounded by Kutch district to the north, Surendranagar district to the east, Rajkot district to the south and Jamnagar district to the west. Morbi, also known as Morvi is the administrative headquarters of Morbi district, which literally means City of Peacocks. The town of Morbi is endowed not only with great natural beauty, but it is also famous for its colorful history and rich cultural heritage. The town of Morbi is situated on the bank of Machchhu River, 35 km from the sea and 60 km from Rajkot. The city-state of Morbi and much of the building heritage and town planning, are attributed to the administration of Sir Lakhdhiraji Waghji, who ruled from 1922 to 1948. The Machchhu dam failure or Morbi disaster was a dam-related flood disaster which occurred on 11 August 1979. Morbi has long been a center for trade and industry. In the beginning, the economy of the town was mainly dependent on ceramic and clock manufacturing industry. Today, the area has also become a growing hub for paper mills and other ancillary industries such as packaging industry, export houses etc. Together, they have created a vibrant and sustainable economy in this region. After the bifurcation from Rajkot District Court, Morbi District Court started its functioning from 02/10/2016 and presently, there are 2 Appellate Courts, 1 Family Court, 1 Labour Court, 5 Senior Division Courts/Chief Courts & 7 Junior Division Courts, are functioning in Morbi District.

Finally, my dream came true and after six years of my effort and with the help of some Jain community members in India, finally I have put together this document. It took me this long because I had to struggle to get lots of information and talked to many scholars, Sadhus in India to get information, particularly about Dev Devies, particularly 16 Vidya Devies, as this information is not available in original Jain scriptures. Dev Devies came about seventh century in the era of Sri Yasovijay Maharaj Saheb. He was the big sadhak of Sri Saraswati Devi. With the help of her sadhana, he convinced many Brahamins about Jain religion and philosophy. I would like to thank Dr.
