  • District Survey Report for Sustainable Sand Mining Distt. Yamuna Nagar
    DISTRICT SURVEY REPORT FOR SUSTAINABLE SAND MINING DISTT. YAMUNA NAGAR The Boulder, Gravel and Sand are one of the most important construction materials. These minerals are found deposited in river bed as well as adjoining areas. These aggregates of raw materials are used in the highest volume on earth after water. Therefore, it is the need of hour that mining of these aggregates should be carried out in a scientific and environment friendly manner. In an endeavour to achieve the same, District Survey Report, apropos “the Sustainable Sand Mining Guidelines” is being prepared to identify the areas of aggradations or deposition where mining can be allowed; and identification of areas of erosion and proximity to infrastructural structural and installations where mining should be prohibited and calculation of annual rate of replenishment and allowing time for replenishment after mining in that area. 1. Introduction:- Minor Mineral Deposits: 1.1 Yamunanagar district of Haryana is located in north-eastern part of Haryana State and lies between 29° 55' to 30° 31 North latitudes and 77° 00' to 77° 35' East longitudes.

No. 64548 Religious Co-existence Especially of Brahmanism and Buddhism at Thanesar (Kurukshetra) in Ancient period, on the basis of Literary and Archaeological evidence Manoj Kumar Research Scholar , Dept. of Ancient Indian History, Culture & Archaeology Kurukshetra University, Kurukshetra,Haryana, India Abstract The present paper describes Co-existence of Religions especially of Brahmanism and Buddhism at Thanesar (Kurukshetra) in the Ancient period which is demonstrated on the basis of Literary and Archaeological sources. Thus, religion is an integral part of human life. It usually obeys the laws of inheritance as it is transferred on to the new generation from the prevailing one. However, time to time new religions and cults came into existence throughout the world and at many places, these cults and religions lived together peacefully (with harmony), but in some time, these had some discords. But, Thanesar has a very clear literary and archaeological confirmation of religious co-existence with harmony which was mainly between the Brahmanism and Buddhism. Though, with the passage of time, Vedic religion divided principally into five sects like Shaivism and Vaishnavism, Shaktism, Sun and Smartism even these sects may be lived together with sympathy and devotees of all these sects paid respect to all religious groups in the region. This aspect is presented by the ancient texts. thus, to confirm the literary sources for the co-existence of religion, archaeologist conducted the excavations and explorations in this region and several archaeological remains recovered from the region particularly from Buddhist Stupa- Thanesar have been investigated for the confirmation of Religious coexistence of Brahmanism and Buddhism.

  • A Study of Food and Feeding Habits of Blue Peafowl, Pavo Cristatus Linnaeus, 1758 in District Kurukshetra, Haryana (India)
    International Journal of Research Studies in Biosciences (IJRSB) Volume 2, Issue 6, July 2014, PP 11-16 ISSN 2349-0357 (Print) & ISSN 2349-0365 (Online) www.arcjournals.org A Study of Food and Feeding Habits of Blue Peafowl, Pavo Cristatus Linnaeus, 1758 in District Kurukshetra, Haryana (India) Girish Chopra, Tarsem Kumar Department of Zoology, Kurukshetra University, Kurukshetra-136119 (INDIA) [email protected] Summary: Present study was conducted to determine the food and feeding habits of blue peafowl in three study sites, namely, Saraswati plantation wildlife sanctuary (SPWS), Bir Sonti Reserve Forest (BSRF), and Jhrouli Kalan village (JKAL). Point count method (Blondel et al., 1981) was followed during periodic fortnightly visits to all the three selected study sites. The peafowls were observed to feed on flowers, fruits, leaves of 11, 8 and 8 plant species respectively. These were sighted to feed on Brassica compestris (flowers, leaves), Trifolium alexandarium (flowers, leaves), Triticum aestivum (flowers, leaves, fruits), Oryza sativa (flowers, leaves, fruits), Chenopodium album (flowers, leaves, fruits), Parthenium histerophoresus (flowers, leaves), Pisum sativum (flowers, leaves, fruits), Cicer arientum (flowers, leaves, fruits), Pyrus pyrifolia (flowers, fruits), Ficus benghalensis (flowers, fruits), Ficus rumphii (flowers, fruits). They were also observed feeding on insects in all three study sites and on remains of the snake bodies at the BSRF and JKAL study site. The findings revealed that the Indian peafowl, on one hand, functions as a predator of agricultural pests but, on the other hand, is itself a pest on agricultural crops. Keywords: Blue peafowl, Food, Feeding Habits, Herbs, Shrubs, Trees. 1. INTRODUCTION Birds are warm-blooded, bipedal, oviparous vertebrates characterized by bony beak, pneumatic bones, feathers and wings.
