Fortunately, the State level Nodal Agency, (Mizoram Watershed Development Agency, MZDWDA) and District Watershed Development Unit, Kolasib appointed as one of the Project Implementing Agency in Kolasib – I within my block, Bilkhawthlir R.D Block. I have no intension to make the Detail Project Report. I requested the officials of District Rural Development Agency, Kolasib District and State Institute of Rural Development, Mzoram, Kolasib to prepare this toughest job. We constituted the Watershed Committee in each and every Village, done Participatory Rural Apprisal for selection of beneficiaries like User Groups, Self Help Groups, Asset less persons, Micro-enterprise Groups and selected site for Entry Point Activities. Procurements of planting materials are to be selected through the Transect Walk and Matrix ranking; this may lead to enhance the users for large scale production and marketing. The entire physical infrastructures are designed and may be suited for this area. Estimates are also enclosed for further reference. I hope this DPR will work efficiently and effectively for the watershed development in a large extent. I wish the DPR may make a great success.

After independence India relied on multi- purpose reservoirs for providing irrigation and generating hydro-electricity. To stabilize the catchments of reservoirs and to control siltation, a Centrally Sponsored Scheme of “Soil Conservation Work in the Catchments of River Valley Projects (RVP)” was launched in 1962-63. The Ministry of Agriculture started a scheme of Integrated Watershed Management in the Catchments of Flood Prone Rivers (FPR) in 1980-81. During the 1980s, several successful experiences of fully treated watersheds, such as Sukhomajri in Haryana and Ralegaon Siddhi in Western Maharashtra, came to be reported. The Ministry of Agriculture launched a scheme for propagation of water harvesting /conservation technology in rainfed areas in 19 identified locations in 1982-83. In October 1984, the Ministry of Rural Development (MoRD) adopted this approach in 22 other locations in rainfed areas. In these 41 model watersheds the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) was also involved to provide research and technology support. The Page 6 of 212 DETAILED PROJECT REPORT OF IWMP, KOLASIB – I PROJECT purpose of these Operation Research Projects was to develop “model watersheds” in different agro-climatic zones of the country. With experience gained from all these, the concept of integrated watershed development was first institutionalized with the launching of the National Watershed Development Programme in Rainfed Areas (NWDPRA) in 1990, covering 99 districts in 16 states. Meanwhile, conservation work was ongoing in the Drought Prone Areas Programme (DPAP) launched by MoRD in 1972-73. The objective of this programme was to tackle the special problems of areas constantly affected by severe drought conditions. In 1977-78, the MoRD started a special programme for hot desert areas of Rajasthan, Gujarat and Haryana and cold desert areas of Jammu & Kashmir and Himachal Pradesh (which were earlier under DPAP) called Desert Development Programme (DDP). These programmes were reviewed in 1973 by a Task Force headed by Dr. B.S. Minhas, by another Task Force headed by Dr. M.S. Swaminathan in 1982 as well as by an Inter-Departmental Group in 1984. In 1988 the National Committee on DPAP and DDP was set up under the Chairmanship of the Member, Planning Commission to appraise and review the DPAP and DDP. The committee was initially headed by Dr. Y.K. Alagh and later by Shri L.C. Jain who took over as Member, Planning Commission in charge of the subject. The committee submitted its report in August 1990. In 1994, a Technical Committee under the Chairmanship of Prof. C.H. Hanumantha Rao was appointed to appraise the impact of the work done under DPAP/DDP; identification of the weaknesses of the programme and to suggest improvements. The Hanumantha Rao Committee felt that “the programmes have been implemented in a fragmented manner by different departments Page 7 of 212 DETAILED PROJECT REPORT OF IWMP, KOLASIB – I PROJECT through rigid guidelines without any well-designed plans prepared on watershed basis by involving the inhabitants. Except in a few places, in most of the programme areas the achievements have been dismal. Ecological degradation has been proceeding unabated in these areas with reduced forest cover, reducing water table and a shortage of drinking water, fuel and fodder” (Hanumantha Rao Committee, 1994, Preface). The Committee, therefore, decided to revamp the strategy of implementation of these programmes, drawing upon the “the outstanding successes” of some ongoing watershed projects. It recommended that sanctioning of works should be on the basis of the action plans prepared on watershed basis instead of fixed amount being allocated per block as was the practice at that time. It called for introduction of participatory modes of implementation, through involvement of beneficiaries of the programme and non-government organisations (NGOs). It recommended that “wherever voluntary organizations are forthcoming, the management of watershed development should be entrusted to them with the ultimate aim of handing over to them one-fourth of total number of watersheds for development”. The Committee also called for a substantial augmentation of resources for watershed development by “pooling resources from other programmes being implemented by the Ministry of Rural Development, e.g., Jawahar Rozgar Yojana, Employment Assurance Scheme, etc., and by integrating them with DPAP and DDP”. The Committee recommended suitable institutional mechanism for bringing about coordination between different departments at the central and state levels with a view to ensuring uniformity of approach in implementing similar programmes for the conservation of land and water resources. On the Page 8 of 212 DETAILED PROJECT REPORT OF IWMP, KOLASIB – I PROJECT basis of these recommendations, the Hanumantha Rao Committee formulated a set of “Common Guidelines”, bringing five different programmes under the MoRD, namely, DPAP, DDP and Integrated Wastelands Development Programme (IWDP), as also the Innovative - Jawahar Rozgar Yojana (I-JRY) and Employment Assurance Scheme (EAS), 50% of the funds of both of which were to be allocated for watershed works. The watershed projects taken up by MoRD from 1994 to 2001 followed these Common Guidelines of 1994. In 2000, the Ministry of Agriculture revised its guidelines for NWDPRA, making them

Carrying capacity is a concept that has been extensively applied in tourism and leisure studies since the 1960s, but its appearance can be date back to the 1930s. It may be viewed as an important thought in the eventual emergence of sustainability discussion, it has become less important in recent years as sustainability and its associated concepts have come to dominate planning on the management of tourism and its impacts. But the study of carrying capacity analysis is still an important tool to know the potentiality and future impact in tourism sector. Thus, up to some extent carrying capacity analysis is important study for tourist destinations and states like Mizoram. Mizoram is a small and young state with few thousands of visitors that visit the state every year.

    Pseudolaguvia Virgulata, from Mizoram, India

    http://sciencevision.info Sci Vis 10 (2), 73 Research Report April-June, 2010 ISSN 0975-6175 On the new catfish, Pseudolaguvia virgulata, from Mizoram, India Lalramliana Department of Zoology, Pachhunga University College, Mizoram University, Aizawl 796001, India A new species of catfish was recently identi- fied from some major rivers of Mizoram. Heok Hee Ng and Lalramliana named the new catfish Pseudolaguvia virgulata, after its distinctively striped colour pattern (virgulata = “striped” in Latin). Besides its distinctive colour pattern, which consists of pale stripes running along the entire length of the body, a pale y-shaped marking on the head and brown stripes running through the caudal fin lobes, the new catfish also differs from congeners in other characters. These in- clude: head width 21.2–24.4% standard length; pectoral-fin length 28.5–29.1% standard length; length of dorsal-fin base 17.2–19.9% standard length; dorsal-spine length 21.5–24.0% standard length; serrated anterior edge of dorsal spine; thoracic adhesive apparatus reaching beyond base of last pectoral-fin ray; body depth at anus 14.5–17.4% standard length; length of adipose- fin base 12.9–15.0% standard length; caudal peduncle length 18.2–20.2% standard length; caudal peduncle depth 7.8–9.7 % standard length; snout length 48.0–54.9% head length; interorbital distance 29.3–35.2% head length; 29 –30 vertebrae. Pseudolaguvia virgulata was collected from river system, one of the three rivers that form clear, shallow, moderately flowing streams with the Ganges Delta. a predominantly sandy bottom.

    Beyond Labor History's Comfort Zone? Labor Regimes in Northeast

    Chapter 9 Beyond Labor History’s Comfort Zone? Labor Regimes in Northeast India, from the Nineteenth to the Twenty-First Century Willem van Schendel 1 Introduction What is global labor history about? The turn toward a world-historical under- standing of labor relations has upset the traditional toolbox of labor histori- ans. Conventional concepts turn out to be insufficient to grasp the dizzying array and transmutations of labor relations beyond the North Atlantic region and the industrial world. Attempts to force these historical complexities into a conceptual straitjacket based on methodological nationalism and Eurocentric schemas typically fail.1 A truly “global” labor history needs to feel its way toward new perspectives and concepts. In his Workers of the World (2008), Marcel van der Linden pro- vides us with an excellent account of the theoretical and methodological chal- lenges ahead. He makes it very clear that labor historians need to leave their comfort zone. The task at hand is not to retreat into a further tightening of the theoretical rigging: “we should resist the temptation of an ‘empirically empty Grand Theory’ (to borrow C. Wright Mills’s expression); instead, we need to de- rive more accurate typologies from careful empirical study of labor relations.”2 This requires us to place “all historical processes in a larger context, no matter how geographically ‘small’ these processes are.”3 This chapter seeks to contribute to a more globalized labor history by con- sidering such “small” labor processes in a mountainous region of Asia. My aim is to show how these processes challenge us to explore beyond the comfort zone of “labor history,” and perhaps even beyond that of “global labor history” * International Institute of Social History and University of Amsterdam.
