Odisha District Gazetteers Nabarangpur
ODISHA DISTRICT GAZETTEERS NABARANGPUR GOPABANDHU ACADEMY OF ADMINISTRATION [GAZETTEERS UNIT] GENERAL ADMINISTRATION DEPARTMENT GOVERNMENT OF ODISHA ODISHA DISTRICT GAZETTEERS NABARANGPUR DR. TARADATT, IAS CHIEF EDITOR, GAZETTEERS & DIRECTOR GENERAL, TRAINING COORDINATION GOPABANDHU ACADEMY OF ADMINISTRATION [GAZETTEERS UNIT] GENERAL ADMINISTRATION DEPARTMENT GOVERNMENT OF ODISHA ii iii PREFACE The Gazetteer is an authoritative document that describes a District in all its hues–the economy, society, political and administrative setup, its history, geography, climate and natural phenomena, biodiversity and natural resource endowments. It highlights key developments over time in all such facets, whilst serving as a placeholder for the timelessness of its unique culture and ethos. It permits viewing a District beyond the prismatic image of a geographical or administrative unit, since the Gazetteer holistically captures its socio-cultural diversity, traditions, and practices, the creative contributions and industriousness of its people and luminaries, and builds on the economic, commercial and social interplay with the rest of the State and the country at large. The document which is a centrepiece of the District, is developed and brought out by the State administration with the cooperation and contributions of all concerned. Its purpose is to generate awareness, public consciousness, spirit of cooperation, pride in contribution to the development of a District, and to serve multifarious interests and address concerns of the people of a District and others in any way concerned. Historically, the ―Imperial Gazetteers‖ were prepared by Colonial administrators for the six Districts of the then Orissa, namely, Angul, Balasore, Cuttack, Koraput, Puri, and Sambalpur. After Independence, the Scheme for compilation of District Gazetteers devolved from the Central Sector to the State Sector in 1957. -

The Activity Centre started in July 2018, after the MOU was signed with the Government of Odisha and the baseline survey was conducted. As of July 2020 it is an ongoing programme.

There are various facets to this phenomenon: increase in the size of the older population, longer life-expectancy and decreasing fertility rates. Countries experience a shift from a period of high mortality, short lives, and large families to one with a longer life, far and fewer children (United Nations, 2019). The global population is ageing rapidly at an unprecedented rate. As of 2015, the number of people above the age of 60 years stands at 901 million. This statistic is set to double by 2050 to a projected 2.1 billion, as suggested by the World Population Ageing Report (United Nations, 2019). -

Further, available nitrogen (108.00 to 388.00 kg N ha-1) and phosphorus content (1.24 to 69.85 kg P ha-1) ranges from low to medium but available potassium ranges from low to high (40.70 to 586.00 kg K ha-1). Available sulphur content ranges from very low to very high (3.18 to 150.00 mgkg-1). Available zinc content ranges from very low to very high (0.25 to 4.89 mg kg-1) and hot water extractable boron content ranges from 0.08 to 1.67 mgkg-1. -
Coastal Tourism in Odisha and Its Impact on Beach Degradation
Article can be accessed online at http://www.publishingindia.com COASTAL TOURISM IN ODISHA AND ITS IMPACT ON BEACH DEGRADATION Soumendra Nath Biswas* Keywords: Abstract: Coastal resources throughout the Odisha Coast are the famous attraction for the tourists. At the same time mass tourism in this region is a major contributor to sewage and solid waste pollution, deforestation, coastal erosion and sedimentation from construction activities. Beach degradation from tourism depends on the number of tourists inflow, the rate of growth of the tourism industry, improper planning and lack of control. Tourism-related physical changes are also widespread for expanding tourism infrastructure projects. The present study is an effort to examine the role of Coastal tourism in Odisha, especially in Puri, Konark, Gopalpur and Chandipur which affect the socio-economic life of the local communities and environmental degradation of the quality of beaches. In the study area, development was based on a rapid growth of tourist demand and chaotic development of tourist facilities. Erosion is very common in Odisha coast. Solutions like sand re-nourishment have not stopped the erosion process. The rising number of tourists exerts a strong pressure on these beaches. Key objective of this paper is to find out how to maintain balance between positive and negative impacts of beach tourism to get optimum benefits and maintain sustainability by protecting it from the environmental catastrophe, manmade hazards followed by beach degradation.

This sector is a nursery of entrepreneurship, often driven by individual creativity and innovation. This sector contributes 8 per cent of the country’s GDP, 45 per cent of the manufactured output and 43 percent of its exports. The MSMEs provide employment to about 60 million persons through 26 million enterprises. The labour capital ratio in MSMEs and the overall growth in the MSME sector is much higher than in the large industries. In the present world scenario, there is an urgency to give a boost to industrial activity for a faster growth of economy for which, there is a need for getting relevant information to instill the confidence among entrepreneurs to plan for an appropriate investment strategy either to set up new industry or to enlarge the existing activity in the State. MSMEDI, Cuttack has brought out the new edition of Odisha State Profile (MSME related information) in the year 2017-18 as per the guide lines issued by the office of the Development Commissioner (MSME), Ministry of MSME, Government of India, New Delhi by incorporating all the relevant information including opportunities to set up and develop industries in the state, latest information on infrastructure development, present status of industries, availability of natural resources and other raw materials, human resources, support and assistance available from technical and financial institutions, new initiative undertaken by MSMEDO, etc to provide adequate exposure both prospective and existing entrepreneurs in the state. -
Drinking Water Quality Analysis of Surrounding Rivers in Bhubaneswar, Odisha
International Journal of Advance Research In Science And Engineering http://www.ijarse.com IJARSE, Vol. No.3, Issue No.5, May 2014 ISSN-2319-8354(E) DRINKING WATER QUALITY ANALYSIS OF SURROUNDING RIVERS IN BHUBANESWAR, ODISHA K. Mohapatra1, S. K. Biswal2, G.Nayak3 1Asst. Professor, Department of Chemistry,GITA, Bhubaneswar(India) 2Professor, Department of Chemistry, IGIT, Sarang(India) 3Lecturer in Chemistry, EATM, Bhubaneswar (India) ABSTRACT With rapid growth of population, Industrial activities and deforestation, the water quality of surrounding rivers in Bhubaneswar, the capital of Odisha is gradually deteriorating. This city has become a environmental sensitive zone in the state of Odisha in India. Drinking water is supplied from surrounding rivers of Bhubaneswar like Kuakhai, Daya and Mahanadi. This supplied water from surrounding rivers becomes polluted when toxic substances, oxidized organics, inorganic, suspended solids, human, animal and plant pathogens enter into the water bodies. The treatment of surface water and waste water is necessary in order to maintain its quality standards for drinking water purposes. The objective of water treatment is to produce an adequate and continuous supply of water that is chemically, bacteriological free and aesthetically pleasing. Water samples from six different locations were collected in every month of pre mansoon, mansoon and post mansoon periods. Standard procedures were adopted to analyze and to calculate the different physic-chemical parameters of surface water samples using ISI standard procedure. Keywords: Surface Water Pollution; Physico-Chemical Parameter; Seasonal Variation; Mahanadi, Daya and Kuakhai Rivers. I INTRODUCTION Water plays a great role for the existence of human beings and all living organisms. -
