During the recent National Aquifer mapping Project (2012-13) 3 EW and 1 OW have been constructed in the district. Since 1973, monitoring of water level is being carried out four times a year from 41 National Hydrograph Network Stations. 2.0 Rainfall & Climate Average annual rainfall (1971-2010) of the district is 935.5 mm. However normal rainfall for the period 1901 to 1970 is 870 mm. The annual rainfall gradually decreases from southern part to northern part. The maximum average rainfall is 1118 mm at Dhanpur and minimum average rainfall is 790 mm at Loharia. The climate of the district is dry except S-W monsoon season. The cold season is from December to February and is followed by summer from March to June. From mid of September to end of November constitutes post monsoon season. The district experiences either mild or normal drought once in two years. Severe type of drought has been recorded very rarely. Most severe type of drought has never occurred in the district. 3.0 Geomorphology, Drainage, Soils & Irrigation Practices The district is characterized by undulating topography.

Department of Botany, S.G.G. Government College, Banswara-327001 Rajasthan, India 2Vardhaman Mahaveer Open University, Kota, Rajasthan, India *Corresponding author e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Rajasthan is one of the largest states located in the North-western part of India. The southern part of Rajasthan state comprises of a large population of tribal communities belonging to various ethnic groups. The tribal community believe that some Gods and deities can be welcomed by some special plants or their parts. So they conserve some plant species due to the traditional ritual ceremonies. These forest dwellers live in forests and possess a vast knowledge on various aspects of plants. An extensive survey of a few tehsils of Banswara was documented to the traditional knowledge of plants used by tribal communities. Tribals like Ninama, Nanoma, Damor, Garasia, Bhagora, Charpota, Singada and Katara are residing in the area. These people have strong traditions, cultural activities, beliefs, taboos, totems, performing religious rituals and valuable information about properties and medicinal uses of plants. Different parts of plant (roots, stem, leaves, bark, fruits, seeds, bulb, etc.) or the whole plant/herb is used for the said purpose of rituals and ceremonies. In this study deals with the documents of 36 plant species used by the rural people of South Rajasthan in ritual ceremonies are reported.

  • Rajputana & Ajmer-Merwara, Vol-XXIV, Rajasthan
    PREFACE CENSUS TAKING, IT HAS RECENTLY BEEN explained by the Census Commissioner for India, should be regarded primarily as a detached collection and presentation of certain facts in tabular form for the use and consultation of the whole country, and, for that matter, the whole world. Conclusions are for ot.hers to draw. It is upon this understanding of their purpose that Tables have been printed in this volume with only the ,barest notes necessary to explain such points as definitions, change of areas, etc. But perhaps the word , barest' is too bare and requires some covering. In the past it has been customary to preface the Tables with many pages of text, devoted to providing some general description of the area concerned and supported by copious Subsidiary Tables and comparisons with data collected in other provinces, countries and states. On this occasion there is no prefatory text, no provision of extraneous comparisons, and Subsidiary Tables have virtually been made part of the Tables themselves. We may agree that the present method of presentation has much to recommend it. Those who seriously study census statistics at least can be presumed to be able to draw their own deductions: they do not need a guide constantly at their side, and indeed may actually resent his well-intentioned efforts. All that they require are t,he bare facts. Yet such people must ever constitute a very small minority. 'Vhat of the others-the vast majority of the public? It is hardly to be expected that they can be lured to Census Tavern by the offer of such coarse fare.

University, Udaipur 2Lecturer, Department of Geography,Govt. Meera Girl’s College, Udaipur ABSTRACT Health amenities are key component of economic development. Healthy people can contribute significantly to the development and prosperity of a nation. Economic and human development in any country and any society are prerequisites for a better quality of human life. Health is the basic and primary need of people it is also a major resource for social, economic and personal development. It prepares a background for any nation to progress in socio-economic, scientific, health and other spheres. Therefore, it should not be viewed in isolation from other goals of development. The development of any region depends upon social and economic development, but such a development can't take place without simultaneous development of amenities. Health amenities development in Tribal Areas is the base of economic development of the any region. The progress of any country or society greatly depends on the quality of life of its people. Generally an amenity defines as "a set of facilities through which goods and services are provided to the public, which shows the quality of life of people in a region." Regional disparity is worldwide problem today, especially in the developing countries.

  • Census Atlas, Part IX-B, Vol-XIV, Rajasthan
    PRG. 173 B (N) (Ordy.) 1,000 CENSUS OF INDIA 1961 VOLUME XIV RAJASTHAN PART IX-B CENSUS ATLAS C. S. GUPTA OF THE INDIAN ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICE Superintendent of Census Op~rations, RajalJhan 1969 FOREWORD FEW PEOPLE REALIZE, much less appreciate, that apart from the Survey of India and the Geological Survey, the Census of India had' been perhaps the largest single producer of maps of the Indian subcontinent. Intimate collaboration between geographer and demographer began quite early in the modern era, almost two centuries before the first experiments in a permanent decennial Census were made in the 1850's. For example, the population estimates of Fort St. George, Madras, made in 1639 and 1648, and of Masulipatnam and Bombay by Dr. John Fryer, around 1672-73 were supported by cartographic documents of no mean order, Tbe first detailed modern maps, the results of Major James Rennell's stupendous Survey of 1767-74, were published in 1778-1780 and Henry Taylor Colebrooke, almost our first systematic demographer, was quick to make good use of them by making estimates of population in the East India Company's Possessions in the 1780's. Upjohn's map of Calcutta City, drawn in 1792.93, reprinted in the Census Report of Calcutta for 195 I, gives an idea of the standards of cartographic excellence reached at that period. In the first decade of the nineteenth century, Francis Buchanan Hamilton improved upon Colebrooke's method in which he was undoubtedly helped by the improved maps prepared for the areas he surve ed. It is possible that the Great Revenue Survey, begun in the middle of the last century, offered the best guarantee of the success of decennial population censuses proposed shortly before the Mutiny of 1857.

  • Measuring and Mapping the State of Food Insecurity in Rajasthan, India
    RESEARCH PAPER MEASURING AND MAPPING THE STATE OF FOOD INSECURITY IN RAJASTHAN, INDIA Rajput Swati1*, Arora Kavita1 1Department of Geography, Shaheed Bhagat Singh College University of Delhi, India *Corresponding author: [email protected] Received: April 3th, 2020 / Accepted: February 16th, 2021 / Published: April 1st, 2021 https://DOI-10.24057/2071-9388-2020-67 ABSTRACT. Food insecurity is a global issue that persists at various scales and intensity. It is linked to irregularity or uncertainty of food, water and fuel and can develop under the influence of multiple factors. Food availability, accessibility, consumption and stability are the four broad dimensions of food security. This paper analyses the relationship between these four dimensions and food insecurity for 33 districts in Rajasthan, India, using the data collected from the published documents, periodicals and websites of the government or other authentic sources. To analyse the link between these four dimensions, several indicators were taken into consideration. The collected data was used to rank the districts based on their level of food insecurity. Thus, the results include categorization of the districts into four zones based on the values of the variables. The results are presented through maps, which show the spatial distribution of food insecurity. It can be concluded, that the districts of Banswara, Dungarpur, Udaipur, Bharatpur, Rajsamand, Dhaulpur and Jalore have a very high level of food insecurity.
