The question is particularly significant because India’s unity and integrity has been possible despite democracy. The key to the above success lies in a mode of federation building that sought to continuously ‘right-size’ the territory of India. The method followed in doing so is called ‘states reorganization’ in India as a result of which ethno-territorial cleavages have been accommodated and regulated. The result has been durable ethnic peace and political stability. At independence (15 August 1947), India inherited nine provinces and over 560 princely states from the old colonial arrangements. An interim state structure was put in place, but it was recognized that a fundamental restructuring would be required in due course. The process was complex and painstaking but managed to create sub-national units called ‘states’, mostly on the basis of language; subsequently non-linguistic ethnic factors were also taken into consideration.

The term diffuse essentially point to this feature of the discharge of such pollution leads which makes them some what difficult to notice, monitor or control. For the study of seasonal variation in inorganic content as well as physico chemical parameters, monitoring was done during summer, rainy and winter season year 2009 to 2011. The parameters like temperature, pH, turbidity, dissolved oxygen (DO) biochemical oxygen demond (BOD), chemical oxygen demond (COD), nitrate, nitrite, chloride, sulphate, phosphate and heavy metals for water analysis and soil temperature, pH, O.C (organic carbon), total nitrogen, phosphorus, exchangeable cation (Na +, K +, Ca ++ , Mg ++ ) and heavy metals for soil analysis have been studied. The study revealed that the water sources in the area are heavily polluted. The heavy metals concentration were found more than the permissible limits during all the seasons. Most of these parameters are correlated with one another.

INTRODUCTION Chhatarpur was founded in 1785 and is named after the Bundela Rajput leader Chhatrasal, the founder of Bundelkhand independence, and contains his cenotaph. The state was ruled by his descendants until 1785. At that time the Ponwar clan of the Rajputs took control of Chhatarpur. The state was guaranteed to Kunwar Sone Singh Ponwar in 1806 by the British Raj. In 1854 Chhatarpur would have lapsed to the British government for want of direct heirs under the doctrine of lapse, but was conferred on Jagat Raj as a special act of grace. The Ponwar Rajas ruled a princely state with an area of 1,118 square miles (2,900 km2), and population of 156,139 in 1901, which was part of the Bundelkhand agency of Central India. In 1901 the town of Chhatarpur had a population of 10,029, a high school and manufactured paper and coarse cutlery. The state also contained the British cantonment of Nowgong. After the independence of India in 1947, the Rajas of Chhatarpur acceded to India, and Chhatarpur, together with the rest of Bundelkhand, became part of the Indian state of Vindhya Pradesh.

  • Karnataka-Maharashtra Tussle
    Karnataka-Maharashtra Tussle Why in news? Karnataka CM condemned Maharashtra Deputy CM’s comments over the border dispute between the two states. What is the genesis of the dispute? The erstwhile Bombay Presidency included the present-day Karnataka districts of Vijayapura, Belagavi, Dharwad and Uttara-Kannada. In 1948, the Belgaum municipality requested that the district, having a predominantly Marathi-speaking population, be incorporated into the proposed Maharashtra state. However, the States Reorganisation Act of 1956 made Belgaum and 10 talukas of Bombay State a part of the then Mysore State (renamed as Karnataka in 1973). [The States Reorganisation Act divided states on linguistic and administrative lines] What is the Mahajan Commission report? The States Reorganisation Commission sought to include talukas with a Kannada-speaking population of more than 50% in Mysore. Opponents of the region’s inclusion in Mysore argued that Marathi-speakers outnumbered Kannadigas who lived there in 1956. In September 1957, the Bombay government echoed their demand and lodged a protest with the Centre. This led to the formation of the Mahajan Commission under former Chief Justice Mehr Chand Mahajan in October 1966. In 1967, the Commission recommended that 264 villages be transferred to Maharashtra (which formed in 1960). It also said that Belgaum and 247 villages remain with Karnataka. What was the response? Maharashtra rejected the report, calling it biased and illogical, and demanded another review. Karnataka welcomed the report, and has ever since continued to press for implementation. But, this has not been formally done by the Centre. What was the basis of Maharashtra’s claim? In 2004, the Maharashtra government moved the Supreme Court for a settlement of the border dispute under Article 131(b) of the Constitution.

  • Madhya Bharat Phosphate Private Limited: [ICRA]A+ (Positive)/ [ICRA]A1 Assigned
    March 23, 2021 Madhya Bharat Phosphate Private Limited: [ICRA]A+ (Positive)/ [ICRA]A1 assigned Summary of rating action Current Rated Amount Instrument* Rating Action (Rs. crore) Term Loan 13.50 [ICRA]A+ (Positive); assigned Fund Based Limits 20.00 [ICRA]A+ (Positive); assigned Non-Fund Based Limits 20.00 [ICRA]A1; assigned Total 53.50 *Instrument details are provided in Annexure-1 Rationale For arriving at the ratings, ICRA has taken a consolidated view of Madhya Bharat Phosphate Private Limited (MBPPL) with its parent, Shree Pushkar Chemicals and Fertilisers Limited (SPCFL), and its subsidiary, Kisan Phosphates Private Limited (KPPL). The basis for taking a consolidated view is the close operational, management and financial linkages between SPCFL, KPPL and MBPPL. The three entities share a common management and KPPL and MBPPL are strategically important to SPCFL. Further, SPCFL has also provided corporate guarantee for MBPPL’s term loans and advances of Rs. 10 crore, which upon sanction of term loans to the latter have been repaid to the parent. The assigned ratings take into account the healthy financial profile of SPCFL, characterised by healthy profitability and return indicators as well as low reliance on external borrowings resulting in comfortable gearing levels. The ratings also factor in the cost competitiveness of SPCFL, supported by its fully integrated, zero discharge operations in the dyes and dye intermediate business segment. SPCFL completed the acquisition of MBPPL in March 2020 at a total cost of ~Rs. 27 crore, which was funded entirely from internal accruals. MBPPL has a production capacity of 2.1 lakh MTPA for Single Super Phosphate (SSP) spread over two plants (Jhabua and Deewanganj in Madhya Pradesh).
