It will play a significant role to address the unexpected disasters that occur in the district effectively .The information available in DDMP is valuable in terms of its use during disaster. Based on the history of various disasters that occur in the district ,the plan has been so designed as an action plan rather than a resource book .Utmost attention has been paid to make it handy, precise rather than bulky one. This plan has been prepared which is based on the guidelines provided by the National Institute of Disaster Management (NIDM)While preparing this plan ,most of the issues ,relevant to crisis management ,have been carefully dealt with. During the time of disaster there will be a delay before outside help arrives. At first, self help is essential and depends on a prepared community which is alert and informed .Efforts have been made to collect and develop this plan to make it more applicable and effective to handle any type of disaster. The DDMP developed involves some significant issues like Incident Command System (ICS), India Disaster Resource Network (IDRN)website, the service of National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) in disaster management .In fact ,the response mechanism ,an important part of the plan is designed with the ICS, a best model of crisis management has been included in the response part for the first time.

The present paper is reliant on four Geography textbooks, ranging from the 9th to the 12th grade. As regards each textbook, the study considers their learning units, then analyses their structure, the unitary way of designing them, the components of the panels of authors, the texts, illustrative materials, drills, learning activities, language, the wealth of Geography lexis, and the glossary. Keywords: curriculum, Geography textbooks, learning activities, India, interdisciplinary approach INTRODUCTION The Board for Secondary Education has proposed a Curriculum for Secondary Learning based on the National Curriculum for School Education 2005 (NCF, 2005) and on the National Curriculum Framework of the National Curriculum 2010 (SCF, 2010). The National Curriculum for School Education 2005 (NCF, 2005) is the fourth national frame of the curriculum designed by the National Board of Formative and Educational Research in India, the others being published in 1975, 1988, and 2000. This official paper focuses on an overlapping structure of education in the first 10 school years, on an integrated approach of social sciences and of sciences, as well as on a new marking scheme system.

The principle strategies are directed more towards understanding the bio­ diversity and various effective geo - environmental factors in the area. Radhanagri Wildlife Sanctuary has diverse Flora and Fauna. Biodiversity is there in all forms that are at genetic level, species level and ecosystem level. The whole area falls under the Western Ghat, which is recognized as one of the “Hot Spots” of bio­ diversity in India. The lush green forests of this area protect and feed the catchments of two major reservoirs namely “Rajarshi Shahu Sagar” of Kallamwadi and “Laxmi Sagar” with several minor tanks and water holes in Radhanagri Taluka. The rich bio­ diversity of the sanctuary provides ample opportunity for research and education. The area of the sanctuary extends over 351.16 Sq. Km. This area has got global and national significance. The Gaur (Bison) is the flagship species of this sanctuary along with the presence of Tiger, Panther, Sloth Bear, Giant Squirrel, Mouse Deer Barking Deer etc.

    EUROPEAN ACADEMIC RESEARCH Vol. III, Issue 4/ July 2015 Impact Factor: 3.4546 (UIF) ISSN 2286-4822 DRJI Value: 5.9 (B+) www.euacademic.org To Investigate Functional Assemblages of Spiders (Arachnida:Araneae) from Western Ghat Ranges of Radhanagari Wildlife Sanctuary Kolhapur, Maharashtra Dr. LAZARUS P. LANKA Head of Dept. & Associate Professor Devchand College, Arjunnagar India Introduction: Spiders being an important group of arthropods, they are studied poorly. The origin of spider could be traced back nearly 400 million years to the Devonian period. The abundance and resemblance of the spiders to their modern descendants can be dated back to the early tertiary period (i.e. 70 million years ago). Basically spiders play an important role in insect pests regulation and other invertebrates populations in most ecosystems. Generally Spiders are found in virtually all terrestrial ecosystems including some freshwater and marine habits and all continents except Antartica (Turnbull, 1973; Cushings, 2005). Although they are not insects themselves, Spiders are meat-eaters, feeding on insects- and other spiders. Spiders represent seventh most diverse order of animals in terms of named species (Nyffler and Benz, 1987, Coddington and Levi, 1991). It has been estimated that the extent species of spiders range as high as 1,70,000 (Coddington and Levi,1991). Spiders are rich in number, averaging 50,000 individuals per acre in vegetated areas. Spiders play an important role in most terrestrial ecosystems and serve as both predators and prey. Despite their abundance, ecological 3962 Lazarus P.
