  • District Fact Sheet Bankura West Bengal
    Ministry of Health and Family Welfare National Family Health Survey - 4 2015 -16 District Fact Sheet Bankura West Bengal International Institute for Population Sciences (Deemed University) Mumbai 1 Introduction The National Family Health Survey 2015-16 (NFHS-4), the fourth in the NFHS series, provides information on population, health and nutrition for India and each State / Union territory. NFHS-4, for the first time, provides district-level estimates for many important indicators. The contents of previous rounds of NFHS are generally retained and additional components are added from one round to another. In this round, information on malaria prevention, migration in the context of HIV, abortion, violence during pregnancy etc. have been added. The scope of clinical, anthropometric, and biochemical testing (CAB) or Biomarker component has been expanded to include measurement of blood pressure and blood glucose levels. NFHS-4 sample has been designed to provide district and higher level estimates of various indicators covered in the survey. However, estimates of indicators of sexual behaviour, husband’s background and woman’s work, HIV/AIDS knowledge, attitudes and behaviour, and, domestic violence will be available at State and national level only. As in the earlier rounds, the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India designated International Institute for Population Sciences, Mumbai as the nodal agency to conduct NFHS-4. The main objective of each successive round of the NFHS has been to provide essential data on health and family welfare and emerging issues in this area. NFHS-4 data will be useful in setting benchmarks and examining the progress in health sector the country has made over time.

  • Chapter Ii History Rise and Fall of the Bishnupur Raj
    CHAPTER II HISTORY RISE AND FALL OF THE BISHNUPUR RAJ The history of Bankura, so far as it is known, prior to the period of British rule, is identical with the history of the rise and fall of the Rajas of Bishnupur, said to be one of the oldest dynasties in Bengal. "The ancient Rajas of Bishnupur," writes Mr. R. C. Dutt, "trace back their history to a time when Hindus were still reigning in Delhi, and the name of Musalmans was not yet heard in India. Indeed, they could already count five centuries of rule over the western frontier tracts of Bengal before Bakhtiyar Khilji wrested that province from the Hindus. The Musalman conquest of Bengal, however, made no difference to the Bishnupur princes. Protected by rapid currents like the Damodar, by extensive tracts of scrub-wood and sal jungle, as well as by strong forts like that of Bishnupur, these jungle kings were little known to the Musalman rulers of the fertile portions of Bengal, and were never interfered with. For long centuries, therefore, the kings of Bishnupur were supreme within their extensive territories. At a later period of Musalman rule, and when the Mughal power extended and consolidated itself on all sides, a Mughal army sometimes made its appearance near Bishnupur with claims of tribute, and tribute was probably sometimes paid. Nevertheless, the Subahdars of Murshidabad never had that firm hold over the Rajas of Bishnupur which they had over the closer and more recent Rajaships of Burdwan and Birbhum. As the Burdwan Raj grew in power, the Bishnupur family fell into decay; Maharaja Kirti Chand of Burdwan attacked the Bishnupur Raj and added to his zamindari large slices of his neighbour's territories.

The river sand is stated vanishing from the river beds besides causing natural and environmental hazards in surrounding areas due to illegal and unsystematic way of mining without Proper Mining plan. Systematic, Scientific and “Eco-Friendly “Mining/ Desilting of river sand will helping in to avoid flood and also meet the sand requirement in building construction, good transport road formation and in infrastructural developments. Hence west Bengal Govt. is sanctioning the sand mining lease. The Kangsabati or Kasai River is a major river system in the study area. It originates from Chhotonagpur plateau and flows in the district Paschim Medinipur and conjoined with Keleghai and falls into the Haldi River near Mahishadal. The river is navigable during rainy season. River Kumari in Bankura and Cossye from Kapastikri in Paschim Medinipur are the main tributaries of Kasai River. The river carries a large amount of silt causing silting up the channel. Sri.Selim Saha is residing Village Barmumibgarh, P.O. Janardanpur, P.S. Kharapur, Paschim Midnapore. District west Bengal State. Sri. Selim Saha is mining river sand from last one d and half decade and is having Vast experience in River sand Mining and Trading and he was Sanctioned 19.07 acres Long Term Mining Lease in Kangsabati river bed at Mouza Kenduapal J.L.No.106, plot No.150(p) 151(p)&153(p).

  • Study Report on Micro Planning Through
    Enhancing Adaptive Capacity and Increasing Resilience of Small and Marginal Farmers of Purulia and Bankura Districts, West Bengal to Climate Change School of Oceanographic Studies Jadavpur University, Kolkata Report 2017 Dr. Sugata Hazra, Sabita Roy, Sujit Mitra Summary The two districts, Purulia and Bankura of West Bengal, India are prone to recurrent droughts. The community also perceive drought as a major recurrent disaster in their life and livelihood. With rising winter temperature and increasing variability of rainfall due to climate change, the vulnerability of agriculture sector will exacerbate in future. The present study has been undertaken in collaboration with DRCSC with funding support from NABARD to increase the resilience of marginal farmers to Climate Change and Climate shocks. It is for the first time that a micro level drought analysis has been carried out in 40 selected villages of Bankura (Chhatna Block) and Purulia (Kashipur Block) utilizing Geospatial techniques. The objective of the study has been to use Geospatial technology to identify the specific problems related to water availability and livelihood at the village level and to develop a spatial decision support system to formulate strategies to reduce the vulnerability to climate change through effective drought preparedness and proactive management. In the first two years of the project, a data inventory has been prepared based on micro-water shed analysis, study of topography, geomorphology, slope, contour, soil and rock types, land-use and land-cover change, ground water table, study of surface water, perennial and non-perennial ponds, wells & tube wells in a GIS based network. Meteorological drought analysis at micro level has been carried out with drought indices like SPI, NDVI, VCI and MSI.
