  • II Block in Nadia District, West Bengal, India
    www.ijird.com April, 2015 Vol 4 Issue 4 ISSN 2278 – 0211 (Online) The Role of Beels in Flood Mitigation- A Case Study of Krishnanagar- II Block in Nadia District, West Bengal, India Dr. Balai Chandra Das Assistant Professor, Department of Geography, Krishnanagar Govt. College, Krishnanagar, West Bengal, India Sanat Das Assistant Teacher, Department of Geography, Bablari Ramsundar High School (H.S), Nabadwip, West Bengal, India Abstract: Selected Beels (wetlands) of C. D. Block Krishnagar-II cover an area of 385.99 acres or 1562046.11 m2 or 1.56 km2. With an average depth of 1.81 meter they can provide scope for 3776155.383 m3 flood water. They provide space for spread of flood water over a vast area reducing the vertical level as well as the vulnerability of flood disaster. This spread of flood water over a vast area facilitates recharge of ground water, which again reduces the flood level. Spills acts as arteries and veins to transport silt laden flood water to Beels during flood and silt-free water during lean periods. These processes help in maintaining river depth of rivers and hasty pass of flood water again reducing the flood level. There are 11 wetlands (Recorded under B.L. & L.R.O, Krishnagar-II), having an average area more or equal to 5 acres or 20234.28 m2 have been considered for the present study. Data for this study were collected from the office of the B.L. & L.R.O, Krishnagar-II, District Fishery Office, Nadia and simple arithmetic calculation is made to come into conclusion that healthy Beels are worthy means for flood mitigation.

  • “Temple of My Heart”: Understanding Religious Space in Montreal's
    “Temple of my Heart”: Understanding Religious Space in Montreal’s Hindu Bangladeshi Community Aditya N. Bhattacharjee School of Religious Studies McGill University Montréal, Canada A thesis submitted to McGill University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts August 2017 © 2017 Aditya Bhattacharjee Bhattacharjee 2 Abstract In this thesis, I offer new insight into the Hindu Bangladeshi community of Montreal, Quebec, and its relationship to community religious space. The thesis centers on the role of the Montreal Sanatan Dharma Temple (MSDT), formally inaugurated in 2014, as a community locus for Montreal’s Hindu Bangladeshis. I contend that owning temple space is deeply tied to the community’s mission to preserve what its leaders term “cultural authenticity” while at the same time allowing this emerging community to emplace itself in innovative ways in Canada. I document how the acquisition of community space in Montreal has emerged as a central strategy to emplace and renew Hindu Bangladeshi culture in Canada. Paradoxically, the creation of a distinct Hindu Bangladeshi temple and the ‘traditional’ rites enacted there promote the integration and belonging of Bangladeshi Hindus in Canada. The relationship of Hindu- Bangladeshi migrants to community religious space offers useful insight on a contemporary vision of Hindu authenticity in a transnational context. Bhattacharjee 3 Résumé Dans cette thèse, je présente un aperçu de la communauté hindoue bangladaise de Montréal, au Québec, et surtout sa relation avec l'espace religieux communautaire. La thèse s'appuie sur le rôle du temple Sanatan Dharma de Montréal (MSDT), inauguré officiellement en 2014, en tant que point focal communautaire pour les Bangladeshis hindous de Montréal.

    © 2019 JETIR June 2019, Volume 6, Issue 6 www.jetir.org (ISSN-2349-5162) IMPACT ON THE LIFE OF COMMON PEOPLE FOR THE FLOODS IN COLONEAL PERIOD (1770 AD-1900AD) & RECENT TIME (1995 AD-2016 AD): A CASE STUDY OF NADIA DISTRICT, WEST BENGAL. Ujjal Roy Research Scholar (T.M.B.U), Department of Geography. Abstract: Hazard is a harmful incident for human life which can destroy so many precious things like crops, houses, cattle, others wealth like money, furniture, valuable documents and human lives also. So many hazards are happens like earthquake, tsunamis, drought, volcanic eruption, floods etc for natural reasons. Global warming, human interferences increase those incidents of hazard. Flood is a one of the hazard which basically happens for natural reason but human interferences increase the frequency and depth of this which is very destructive for human society. Nadia is a historically very famous district lies between 22053’ N and 24011’ N latitude and longitude from 88009 E to 88048 E, covering an area of 3,927 square km under the State of West Bengal in India but regular incidents of floods almost every year in time of monsoon is a big problem here. Unscientific development works from British Period hamper the drainage systems of Nadia and create many incidents of flood in colonial period. Still now millions of people face this problem in various blocks of Nadia. Development in scientific way, preservation of water bodies & river, dig new ponds & canals, increase awareness programme between publics, modernise flood warning system, obey the safety precaution rules in time of flood can save the people from this hazard.

Iman Sk Assistant Teacher in Geography Vivekananda Palli Kishore Bharati High School, Behala, Kolkata ABSTRACT Agriculture is the process of producing food, feed, fiber and many other desired products by the cultivation of certain plants and the raising of domesticated animals (livestock) that controlled by the climatic condition, nature of topography and socio economic demands of any area. Agricultural pattern is perhaps the clearest indicator for the management and modification of natural environment into cultural environment. The present paper is an attempt to analyze physical set-up and agricultural condition after independence - a case study on murshidabad district, west bengal, india and also to explore the agricultural production of land with different natural and socio-economic parameters for sustainable development. Based on the block wise secondary data obtained from the Bureau of Applied Economics and Statistics, Govt. of West Bengal, I prepared the soil coverage mapping of the area that shows the cropping pattern of study area. The results show that jute is the main agricultural production than others agricultural production. In 2015-16 total production of jute is 1939800 tonne, where paddy and wheat productiona sre 1120900 tonne and 285600 tonne. However, a planned agricultural pattern is suggested considering demographic change of the region. Keywords: Topography, soil type, drainage, agriculture pattern and GDP. INTRODUCTION Agriculture, as the backbone of Indian economy, plays the most crucial role in the socioeconomic sphere of the country.

Brahmin Pandits were associated with intellectual literature discuss knowledge, to do religious oblation and worship. The city was fully surrounded by dense bamboo and marsh forest and tigers, wild pigs, foxes etc used live in this forest. This was the picture of Nadia during the end of 18th century.i There was a well-known rhyme- “Bamboo, box and pond, three beauties of Nadia”. Here ‘Nad’ means Nadia or Nabadwip.ii This district was established in 1786. During the partition, Nadia district was also divided. However, according to Lord Mountbatten’s plan 1947 during partition of India the whole Nadia district was attached with earlier East Pakistan. This creates a lot of controversy. To solve this situation the responsibility was given to Sir Radcliff According to his decision three subdivisions of Nadia district (Kusthia, Meherpur and Chuadanga) got attached with East Pakistan on 18th August, naming Kusthia district and the remaining two sub-divisions (Krishnagar and Ranaghat) centered into India with the name Nabadwip earlier which is now called Nadia. While studying the history of self-governing rule of Ndai district one can see that six municipalities had been established long before independence.
