  • 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.

Maratha quota — the agitation, the politics Relevant for GS Prelims & Mains Paper II; Polity & Governance The Supreme Court on Wednesday referred to a Constitution Bench the question of whether states can exceed the 50% limit on quotas that was set by a nine-judge Bench in the landmark Indra Sawhney vs Union of India (1992) case. The question will now be taken up by a Bench comprising at least 11 judges. Case in Supreme Court A Bench of Justices L Nageswara Rao, Hemant Gupta, and S Ravindra Bhat heard a batch of petitions challenging reservations for Marathas in education and jobs in Maharashtra. The petitions appealed a 2019 Bombay High Court decision that upheld the constitutional validity of the Maratha quota under the Socially and Educationally Backward Classes (SEBC) Act, 2018. The Bench also heard a petition challenging admission to postgraduate medical and dental courses under the quota in the state. Bombay HC ruling A Division Bench of the High Court ruled last year that the 16% quota granted by the state recommended by the Maharashtra State Backward Class Commission (MSBCC). The Bench was not “justifiable”, and reduced it to 12% in education and 13% in government jobs, as circumstances and extraordinary situations, this limit can be crossed subject to availability ofruled quantifiable that “the limitand ofcontemporaneous reservation should data not reflecting exceed 50%”;backwardness, however, “ininadequacy exceptional of heavily on the findings of the 11-member MSBCC, which submitted in November 2018 that therepresentation Maratha community and without is socially, affecting economically the efficiency and educationallyin administration”.

  • Maratha Reservation
    THE MARATHA RESERVATION ISSUE SYBA- SOCIOLOGY PAPER II Marathas, who have historically dominated politics, are feeling threatened in the new economic order, where education and jobs matter more than farm incomes. What explains this intermittent flare-up among the Marathas in Maharashtra? The short answer is growing socio-economic insecurity within the state’s dominant caste group. Marathas have a large share in the state’s population, they own large tracts of land and have enjoyed dominance in the realm of politics. But this traditional dominance is being threatened in the new economic order where educations and jobs matter more than farm incomes.
