  • 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.

  • 6.1Road Transportation
    Preparation of Sub Regional Plan for Haryana Sub-Region of NCR-2021: Interim Report -II Chapter 6 : TRANSPORTATION 6.1 Road Transportation Since the formation of Haryana state, there has been a significant growth in the road transportation sector of Haryana. As on year 2001, around 23, 000 km of roads connect to villages and cities in Haryana state and with its neighbor states. At present more than 99.88 percentages of villages are connected by metalled roads and road density is around 63.8 km per 100 sq. km area. Length of different types of roads in Haryana State is as follows: National Highways : 1,346 km State Highways : 2,559 km Major District Roads : 1,569 km Other Distt. & village roads : 14,730 km Other roads : 2,852 km Source: Statistical Abstract Haryana, 2006-07 However, economic development in the state is taking place at very higher rate in comparison to other states of India. This is the reason for large density of vehicles on these available roads. As per the information available for the year 2003-2004, about 5763 motor vehicles accommodated within 100 square kilometer of area. Though, the registered number of vehicles as on 31st march 2004 were 25, 47,910, in actual about 28, 53,667 number of motor vehicles traveled on roads of Haryana sate. This shows that a significant percentage of through traffic passes through Haryana state. This large volume of traffic may cause road accidents which results in huge loss of economy and human resources, if proper transportation facilities are not provided.
