INTRODUCTION MATERIALS AND METHODS Birds are of great importance to the ecosystem that surrounds Study area human society. They play a crucial role in controlling population of different insects and pests. They play the key role Barwani isconsidered as Siddh Nagar because of a famous Jain of pollinating agents, helps in dispersal of seeds of different pilgrim Bawangaja is situated here andis a municipal vegetation and scavengers. Birds are the bio-indicators of town in Barwani district of Madhya Pradesh, India, Barwani environment and are being used for conservation and town is located at 22.03°N 74.9°E. It has an average elevation environmental impact assessment[I]. The house sparrow (Passer of 178 meters (583 feet). The Narmada River flows through domesticus indicus) is an important and familiar part of the Barwani; it is 5 km (3.1 miles) from the city centre. The urban avifauna. Ali has described in detail the morphology and maximum temperature of Barwani in April and May used to [II] reach 48° C (118° F), making it one of the hottest places in biology of the house sparrow . A close association with [X] [VII] Central India . human habitations has been a huge factor in its success . House Sparrow is the species, which is known to co-occur with Study sites humans from historic times, and thus serves as a good indicator of the ecological quality. A population is a group of individuals 1. 22.042615°N, 74.914552°E of the same biological species occupying a particular place at 2. 22.029499°N, 74.903534°E 3. 22.045217°N, 74.898680°E the same time. Density measure in terms of the amount of area available as living space is ecological density[III]. Crude density To calculate crude density, about 2.3 hectare of observable area includes all the available area within the organism's range is taken for all 3 sites. Identification of birds were done by the whereas ecological density includes only that portion of that book, Birds of India by Bikram Grewal, Sumit Sen, area that can actually be niched by the species[VIII]. Barwani is Sarwandeep Singh, Nikhil Devasar and Garima Bhatia[IX]. A situated on the south-west zone of Madhya Pradesh state as point and shoot camera (50X Zoom) was used to snapshot the well as the Holy River Narmada is its northern border. The aim bird. Google map was used for land marking and distance of this study is to analyze the crude density of the bird in semi measurements. urban area and newly constructed residential areas which previously were agricultural land. *Corresponding author: Himanshu Mayriya Department of Zoology, S.B.N.

The practice is integral to the temple and it is “essential religious practice” of the temple and in noway amounts to discrimination keeping in view Article 25 and 26 of the Constitution of India, which guarantees protection of the cherished liberties of faith, belief and worship to persons belonging to all religions in a secular polity. 2) Judicial review of religious practices ought not be undertaken, as the Court cannot impose its morality or rationality with respect to the form of worship of a deity.

Govt. P.G. College, Barwani (M.P.) *Corresponding Mayriya* Author Dinesh Verma Department of Zoology, S.B.N. Govt. P.G. College, Barwani (M.P.) ABSTRACT House sparrow (Passer domesticus) belongs to the order Passeriformes and the family Passeridae. The bird is closely related with human habitations. In Barwani town (22.0363° N, 74.9033° E), due to awareness related to this bird, led to the growth of the population. Barwani Town is surrounded by small villages which are close and connected by Road. On this, semi urban areas, Household food waste, local restaurants, Dhabas and agriculture spoilage, are providing a good feeding habitat to the bird. This particular study was done in Village Sajwani, District Barwani for Two months, from September to October. The village is situated 5 KM far from the Barwani Town, the gap in between is full of Agricultural elds and Temporary Kaccha Houses which is the most preferable nest site of the bird. The objective of the paper is to nd a pre winter data of the bird's population, to observe their feeding preferences, to nd nest sites after Monsoon. The study was conducted for two months i.e. from September to October. Field trips were made twice a day (Morning 7 AM-9AM and Evening 5PM- 6PM). Line transects and Point count Methods are used to collect the data.

    Volume : 90 Issue No. : 90 Month : January, 2008 SAINTS SHRAMAN SANGH ACHARYAS RECONCILE DIFFERENCES Entire Sthanakwasi Samaj is in high spirits on getting the news of reconciliation of differences amongst its top seers. The conflicting groups and their followers have accepted to work together. After the meeting with Shri Umesh Muniji Maharaj at Dewas, (M. P.) The Chairman of Shwetambar Sthanakwasi Jain Conference, Shri Kanti Lal Jain and his group announced the success of peace efforts. The announcement of successful resolution of all the differences between Dr. Shiv Muniji, Acharya of the parent body of Shraman Sangh and Acharya Shri Umesh Muniji, nominated by Shri Roop Muniji has been welcomed by the members and the saint community of the sect. Amongst all Sthanakwasi Jain sects, Shraman Sangh is the biggest sect, constituted by over 1500 saints. Shraman Sangh was formed about 60 years back when several small Sthnakwasi groups joined and nominated Shri Atma Ramji as its first Acharya. Second saint to head Shraman Sangh was Acharya Shri Anand Rishiji and thereafter Shri Devendra Muniji headed the sect. After Devendra Muniji, Dr. Shiv Muni was unanimously declared as Acharya. About five year back, some of the decisions of Dr. Shiv Muniji taken in the capacity as Acharya of the Sangh became highly controversial within the saint community. This led to separation by a small group of saints, who formed another group, led by Sri Roop Muniji “Rajat”. Shri Roop Muniji nominated a vetaran saint, Shri Umesh Muniji as Acharya of the dissenting group. Several delegations made repeated efforts for reconciliations but the internal politics of Sangh Members (Sharavaks) blocked all peace efforts.
