Examples of OGs are railway colony, university campus, port areas, etc. , that may come up near a city or statutory town outside its statutory limits but within the revenue limits of a village or villages contiguous to the town or city. In 2001 Census, for the purpose of delineation of Urban Agglomerations the pre-requisite criteria were: (a) The core town or at least one of the constituent towns of an UA should necessarily be a statutory town; and (b) the total population of all the constituents (i.e., towns and outgrowths) of an Urban Agglomeration should not be less than 20,000 (as per 1991 Census).

  • Sustainable Agriculture – a New Partnership Paradigm in Dantewada Harsh Jaiswal, TERI University 1
    Sustainable Agriculture – A New Partnership Paradigm in Dantewada Harsh Jaiswal, TERI University 1. Heralding Green Revolution in Independent India Upon breaking the shackles of colonisation in 1947, India was plagued with starvation and famine in several parts of the country. As a young independent nation, agricultural production wasn’t sufficient for the growing population. Several causes have been attributed to this glaring gap between supply and demand. Lack of modernisation in the agriculture sector and the prevalence of primitive methods of farming were attributed as the major cause. In the early 1960s, the Green Revolution (henceforth, GR) was pedestaled as the saviour of India’s farmers and food deficient people. This involved the use of chemical fertilizers, irrigation infrastructure, and high yielding variety (HYVs). GR promised to tackle chronic food deficit by increasing yield and making the country self-sufficient in food grain production. These developments were supported with institutional interventions like Minimum Support Price (MSP) protocol, subsidies on chemical fertilizers, improvement in rural infrastructure, and so on. 1.1 Contestations on Green Revolution However, the critical appraisal on GR highlights some of the major problems in the technical interventions with serious environmental and economic consequences. “However the assumption of nature as a source of scarcity, and technology as a source of abundance, leads to the creation of technologies which create new scarcities in nature through ecological destruction. The reduction in the availability of fertile land and genetic diversity of crops as a result of the Green Revolution practices indicates that at the ecological level , the Green Revolution produced scarcity, not abundance” (Shiva, 1991) Evidence suggests that the Indian states of Punjab, Haryana, Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra, and Andhra Pradesh are currently reaping the repercussions of GR.
