General Characteristics of the District: Uttar Dinajpur district was formed on Ist April, 1992 by bifurcation of the erstwhile West Dinajpur district. It was included in the Jalpaiguri Division of the State. As the district is basically agrarian, most of the people depend directly or indirectly on agriculture. Industry is developing gradually as the new entrepreneurs are coming forward to adopt an industrial unit as their profession. 1.1 Location & Geographical Area. Uttar Dinajpur district with an area of 3140 sq. km. is bounded by Darjeeling district in the North, Purnea district of Bihar State in the West, Malda and Dakshin Dinajpur district in the South and Bangladesh in the east. Geographically the district located between 26˚35’15” N and 25˚10’25” N latitude and 89˚0’30” E and 87˚48’37” longitude. 1.2 Topography The soil of the district may be classified as old alluvium, alluvium and new alluvium. The texture of old alluvium varies from stiff clay to clay loam. The soil is deep and in reaction neutral to slightly acidic The district is flat in general with a very gentle slope from North to South as a result of which the rivers generally have the same direction Nagar, Mahananda, Kulik and Sui are the main rivers. 1.3 Availability of Minerals.

Of Mines & Minerals, Govt. of W.B 1.4 FOREST The district is very poor in forest resources. Its total forest area occupies 580.54 hect. only 0.18% of the total geographical area of the district covers. Very negligible revenue is earned from forest produce. The main forest produce are timber, plywood and fire wood. Forest is an important natural resource of an economy. It is also source of supply for various forest products like wood, timber, cane, bamboo, stone chips, boulders, broom, stick, etc. Some people get their lively hood from Forest based products. But this is not applicable to Uttar Dinajpur, because of negligible existence of forest area. Uttar Dinajapur has 579.18 Ha. Forest area out of total Geographical area 3142 sq. km. 1.5 Administrative set up. The Headquarters of the district is located at Karnajora near Raiganj.

  • An Analysis of Spatial Patterns of Disabled Persons in West Bengal
    IJDS 2017; Vol. 04 No. 02, December 2017, pp. 137-145 137 ISSN: 2355 – 2158 DOI: An Analysis of Spatial Patterns of Disabled Persons in West Bengal *Md Monirul Islam *Senior Research Fellow, Dept. of Geography, Aliah University, Kolkata Abstract In this paper an attempt has been made to observe the spatial patterns of disabled persons by sex and residence in and across the districts of West Bengal. The research paper is exclusively based on secondary sources of data which have been taken from Census of India publications, New Delhi. Advanced statistical techniques have been used to analyze the data. Apart from, advanced cartographic techniques and GIS-MapInfo has also been used to visual representation of the data. The study reveals that disabled persons are highly concentrated in southern part of the state while, central part and a little area of northern part have the lower concentration. There is an enormous regional variation in the distributional patterns of male-female and rural- urban areas of the state. The study also examined the probable association between disability and selected socio- economic variables and it is observed that several variables are significantly associated with disability. Keywords: correlation, disabled persons, pattern, spatial. 1. Introduction According to Census of India 2011, there Persons with disabilities are the most are more than 26 millions disabled persons in oppressed, demoralized, marginalized, excluded India which implies every 22 persons are disabled section of the society. The concentration of out of 1000 among them 24 are male, while 20 disabled persons varies from place to place and are female and there are notable differentials in time to time (Islam et al., 2016).

Despite existence of legal prohibitions, several socio-economic situations ranging from dearth of poverty, over–fertility, non-responsive education system to poor access in financial services adversely affect a section of children and keep them in work field. This work burden not only prevents the children from getting the basic education, it is also highly detrimental to their health and ultimately leads to intellectual and physical stunting of their growth. At this backdrop, this paper measures the magnitude of child rights to education enjoyed by the child labour across the states of West Bengal. The paper identifies various reasons behind non-inclusiveness of a great portion of child labour in main-stream of education through empirical analysis in two backward districts of West Bengal.

    Journal on New Biological Reports ISSN 2319 – 1104 (Online) JNBR 8(2) 37 – 124 (2019) Published by www.researchtrend.net An updated checklist of the mammals of West Bengal Jayanta Kumar Mallick Wildlife Wing, Forest Department, Govt. of West Bengal (Retd.), India Corresponding author: [email protected] | Received: 09 April 2019 | Accepted: 31 May 2019 | How to cite: Mallick JK. 2019. An updated checklist of the mammals of West Bangal. J New Biol Rep 8(2): 37-123. ABSTRACT The Checklist of Mammalian fauna of West Bengal has been updated after more than two and half decades to include recent taxonomic changes, new additions and distribution records for West Bengal. In this checklist, 234 species (Extant 211, Extinct 23) and 215 sub-species, belonging to 137 genera, 39 families and 11 orders, are reported. The chiropterans represent maximum number of species (75) followed by rodents (50), carnivores (48), Artiodactyls (29), Eulipotyphla (11), Primates (8), Lagomorpha (5), Perissodactyla (3), Pholidota (2) Scandentia (2) and Proboscidea (1). Relative to the 1992 version, the gain in number of species is 46 (+24.46%), that of sub-species 70 (+48.27%), genera 31 (+29.24%) and families 7 (+21.87%). Following recent molecular evidences, Cetacea is reordered under Artiodactyla in the new version. There are, however, a few records that remain unresolved, doubtful or controversial. Key words: checklist, mammals, taxonomy, distribution, habitat, status, conservation. Abbreviations (Old names in parenthesis).

  • Nesting Tree Selection by Scattered Heronry Birds Of
    Nayak A (2021) Notulae Scientia Biologicae 13(1):10871 DOI:10.15835/nsb13110871 AcademicPres Research Article Notulae Scientia Biologicae Nesting tree selection by scattered heronry birds of drought prone Northern Bankura, West Bengal, India: preference of Phoenix sylvestris near wetland -associated habitats Ananya NAYAK Bankura Sammilani College, Department of Zoology, Kenduadihi 722102, Bankura, West Bengal, India; [email protected] Abstract The present study was conducted in the Gangajalghati block of Northern Bankura, India, to investigate the habitat and nest tree preference of three colonial waterbirds viz. Nycticorax nycticorax , Egretta garzetta , and Ardeola grayii . The study sites were surveyed for 20 months between 2017 and 2020. A total of 817 nests with an average of 204 per year were recorded on 13 tree species. Nycticorax nycticorax showed the maximum nest count followed by Egretta garzetta and Ardeola grayii . Relative abundance data revealed Phoenix sylvestris as the most abundant species (45%) of the area and harbours the highest proportion (33%) of nests. Pooled nest count data showed significantly higher (p < 0.01) total nest counts in the wetland associated habitats than others. The study observed more nest density of all three species near a cluster of small ponds than in a large water body. Year-wise difference in cumulative nest number and mean nest abundance of all three species was statistically insignificant. The interspecific nearest neighbour on Phoenix sylvestris were Egretta garzetta (88.37%) for Nycticorax nycticorax and Nycticorax nycticorax (83.25%) for Egretta garzetta and Ardeola grayii . Further, the study evaluated the impact of two tropical cyclones (Amphan and Fani) on the total nest count and found that more than 75% nests (p < 0.05) were destroyed by the mighty Amphan in May 2020.

  • The Importance of Being Siliguri, Or the Lack Thereof Border-Effect and the “Untimely” City in North Bengal
    The Importance of Being Siliguri, or the Lack Thereof Border-Effect and the “Untimely” City in North Bengal Atig Ghosh 2016 The Importance of Being Siliguri, or the Lack Thereof Border-Effect and the “Untimely” City in North Bengal ∗ Atig Ghosh Debashis Chakraborty visited Siliguri for the first time in 1952. After the final examinations of Class IV, this was his first trip to Siliguri to visit the part of his family that had relocated to this town from Dinajpur following the Partition of 1947. The family had set off one morning from Dinajpur town and after changing trains thrice, they reached Siliguri the next day. From the train, the child had for the first time seen the blue line of mountains. The Siliguri Junction station, where they got off, struck him as shiny new. They took a rickshaw from the station which ferried them across the wooden deck-bridge over River Mahananda along a winding pitch road. Beside the bridge ran the railway tracks for the toy train. While passing the Road Station (now Hasmi Chowk), he noticed the small wagons of the goods-trains standing idly. And what captivated him further— remained anchored in his memories lifelong— were the houses: mostly made of wood, some stood on stilts. Their house was no different. It was a bungalow, Chakraborty tells us. The yellow paint of the wooden planks contrasted sharply with the bright green of the doors and windows. The bright red tin roof shone in the morning sun. In front of the house, was a cutcha lane, along the two sides of which open drains had been freshly dug.

  • Utilization of Irrigation on Agriculture in Uttar Dinajpur District, West Bengal, India
    Innovations Number 61 2020 April www.journal-innovations.com Utilization of Irrigation on agriculture in Uttar Dinajpur District, West Bengal, India Suchandra Neogi Research Scholar Department of Geography The University of Burdwan West Bengal, India Abstract Irrigation is practised in those areas where rainfall is seasonal and the amount is not satisfactory for crop production. The monsoonal land having seasonal rainfall, require irrigation either from canal, tank or well so as to ensure agricultural production. In India rainfall is seasonal and the distribution of rainfall is uneven. India has the largest acreage of land under irrigation. In the high irrigated area the cropping intensity is found high and in the low irrigated area cropping intensity is found low. This article focussed on the present status of irrigation and cropping pattern on block basis in the Uttar Dinajpur district, in West Bengal, India. After applying different methods and technique (Pearson’s product moment correlation co-efficient, Regression line etc.). It has been concluded that the districts has a positive relation between two variables. Though the ground water utilisation is the main source of irrigation but other sources are also used to increase the cropping intensity in the region. Some blocks gets high irrigation facilities but the facilities is not well enough. Key words: 1.Irrigation, 2.Irrigation by Teesta Canal, 3.Cropping Intensity , 4.Suggested remedial measures. Introduction: Water potential in India is vast. This can be tapped and usefully employed for irrigation. Irrigation is the artificial application of water to the land or soil. It is used to assist during periods of inadequate rainfall.
