CHAPTER- II THE COMMITTEE GOES INTO ACTION Il-L According to Charak Diagnosis, Treatment and Botany are the three pillars of ~yurveda_ Looking from this perspective, we can say that the main plank of Botany had vanished, during the Moghul and British regimes. Gujarat alone has taken initiative for its resurrection, and has appointed this Committee. The Committee has felt that with the discovery of myriad medicinal plants from the junlges, the public at large, students, Ayurveda research scholars and the foreigners as •1 well, will be: able to witness this important aspect of Ayurveda and also ts development and the same will be a boon to all. ll-2.-The world is mutable. Night following day and vice versa is an ab­ -solute certainty. After thousands of years the Sun of Ayurveda again seems to have arisen on the peaks of the Eastern mountain. The State endeavours to rehabilitate the forests for they were fnll of herbal medicines prior to the Moghul regime. ll-3.-A scientific treatise on Ayurveda is available at present. Even in this age of science, it manifests itself in different forms.

    International Journal of Scientific & Engineering Research, Volume 7, Issue 11, November-2016 526 ISSN 2229-5518 Review Article Narmada Rift Valley & Quaternary Sedimentation A A Khan, Maria Aziz Abstract— The Narmada river originates at Amarkantak at an elevation of about 1057 m above m.s.l. it descends across the rugged and mountainous tract through deep and steep gorges in straight sinuous to meandering pattern over a distance of 1300 km across the middle of the Indian sub-continent to join the Gulf of Cambay in Arabian sea in Gujarat state. In the area of study in lower Narmada between Grudeshwar and Baruche is occupied by thick Quaternary deposits of about 800 m which represent various domain of sedimentation. Based on sedimentlogical characters, depositional environments, erosional processes and their relation with depositional activity revealed that it comprised of four domains of sediments viz glacial, fluvio-glacial fluvial and tidal flats. The lower most units (Boulder bed) are, of glacial origin, followed by the boulder conglomerate of glacio-fluvial and subsequently by fluvial of paleo- domain of Narmada and tidal flats. The top four formations Ankleshwar, Tilakwarda & Bharuch and Aliabat are designated as (NTo-NT3). Boulder conglomerate is assigned an independent formational status based on distinct lithology and fossil assemblage. The area of study has repurcassions of impact of movements of the Indian Plate which is currently moving northeast at 5 cm/yr (2 in/yr), while the Eurasian Plate is moving northeast at only 2 cm/yr (0.8 in/yr). This is causing the Eurasian Plate to deform, and the Indian Plate to compress leading to tectonic activity along major fault zones.
