Alarmed by the fall in numbers of this rare red deer, known scientifically as Cervus Elaphus Hanglu, and locally known as “Hangul”, the Government of Jammu and Kashmir is doing everything possible to save it from extinction. Battling for its survival, the Hangul are now scattered within the Dachigam National Park, which is located under the Zabarwan mountain range on the outskirts of Srinagar. The Dachigam National Park is the natural habitat of the Hangul, though in the summers, some of them cross the boundaries of the national park to graze in the higher mountain reaches. The state government has prepared a plan for Hangul conservation with the help of the Dehradun-based Wildlife Institute of India at a cost of Rs.220 million. The five-year plan has been submitted to the Union Ministry of Environment and Forests for approval. As part of the plan, the state government will buy field equipment, satellite images, GIS hardware and software. It would also build carnivore-proof enclosures, guard huts, watch towers and take steps to stop poachers.

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by OpenSIUC Ethnobotanical Leaflets 13: 1240-56 , 2009. An Ethnobotanical Study of Medicinal Plants used by the Locals in Kishtwar, Jammu and Kashmir, India Mahesh Kumar, Yash Paul and V. K. Anand Department of Botany, University of Jammu, Jammu.-180006 e-mail. [email protected] Issued October 01, 2009 Abstract This study represents a systematic attempt to explore the knowledge of the native people about plants, which they use to cure diseases. And it is an attempt towards conserving the local knowledge of people to plants. This paper presents a list and uses of some medicinal plants distributed in the high altitude district Kishtwar in Jammu and Kashmir. The list was prepared during an ethno-botanical survey of the region from December 2007 to January, 2009. This paper provides information about 71 ethno-medicinally useful plants grown in this region. In this paper, family, botanical name, local name, ethnomedicinal uses are given for each plant. Introduction It is documented that 80% of the world population has faith in traditional medicines, particularly plant drugs for their primary healthcare (Kala et al., 2006). The use of plants for medicinal purposes and human sustenance has been in practice in India since the Vedic age. The earliest mention of the medicinal use of the plants is found in the Rigveda, 1500-400 BC, Athurveda 1500 BC, Upnishada 1000-600 BC (Chauhan, 1999). In India about 17000 species of higher plants out of which 7500 are known for medicinal uses (Shiva, 1996).

  • Professional Sports Leagues Around the World and Sports Became a Business with Owners of Sports Teams on Lines Similar to Owners of Companies
    EAMSA 2015 Competitive Paper 1. Introduction: Elite sports, the way we know it, have had a large fan following for more than a 100 years. The modern Olympics starting in 1896 was a turning point in organized elite sports across different types of sporting events. As the Olympics have evolved they have taken in more sports under its umbrella. Individual sports have had their own specialized events at regular intervals. These include the annual Wimbledon tennis tournament that started in 1877 and the Football World Cup held every four years that had its first edition in 1930. Initially elite sports people were amateurs for whom sports was a past time and not a profession. Over the years professionalization of sports took place as sports people converted what used to be a past time into a full-fledged profession. This led to the formation of a large number of professional sports leagues around the world and sports became a business with owners of sports teams on lines similar to owners of companies. Sports as a business opened up different ways to monetize the purchasing power of sports fans and led to the creation of a variety of different revenue models. The advent of professional sports leagues happened in Europe and North America. Europe developed professional sports leagues in football that included the English Premier League (EPL), La Liga in Spain, Bundesliga in Germany and Serie A in Italy. In North America the professional sports leagues revolved around the sports popular in that part of the world. These included Major League Baseball (MLB), National Basketball Association (NBA), National Football League (NFL), and National Hockey League (NHL).
