I have been given to understand that the State of Environment Report being published by the Department would display vital information on the environment related aspects of the State. As a Minister in-charge of the Department it shall be my endeavour to equip the Department in such a way that it successfully carries forward the protection, prevention and conservation agenda in a most sustainable manner. Himachal Pradesh, which has its own peculiar environmental problems, needs to tread the devel- opmental path without compromising with its pristine environment. Climate change and biological diversity loss are the two major planetary environmental threats facing mankind today and they are closely interlinked. Himachal Pradesh is a sensitive and highly bio-diverse ecosystem. To conserve our Himalayan heritage, we must jointly strengthen our endeavours to tackle the climate change and to curb the loss of biological diversity through adoption of sustainable environ- mental management practices. Under the able leadership of Prof. Prem Kumar Dhumal, Hon'ble Chief Minister Himachal Pradesh, we would integrate environment protection in development agenda of the State. I congratulate and wish all success to the Department of Environment, Science and Technology. (Jagat Prakash Nadda) v vi FOREWORD Environmental concerns are growing each day with huge advancements in industrial development and infrastructure. We have reached the stage where we have to realize that all that we do impacts our delicate balance with nature. To sustain this balance, it is essential that development is in harmony with nature. Various sectors exert impact on the environment in their own ways and to various degrees. It is essential to understand these pressures and impacts so that timely mitigation and adaptation measures may be taken to correct the situation. The State of Environment Report is a sincere effort in this direction. It provides the reader with sector wise pressures, status, impacts and responses needed to take corrective action. The report is supported by a significant quantity of data thoughtfully presented in a user friendly form of tables and graphs rendering the statistical data easy to comprehend. The report is in essence a one-stop gateway to the environmental scenario of Himachal Pradesh. This report has fulfilled a long standing need of our state and I am confident that it will be used by policy makers in arriving at decisions that will help in sustainable development. I also hope that the report will be equally useful to research scholars, students, NGOs and the public at large in understanding the environmental concerns of our State. It is not an easy task for any organization to compile such diverse information and therefore I feel immensely proud that the Department of Environment, Science & Technology has risen to this challenge, under the initiative of Ministry of Environment and Forests, Government of India, and has successfully completed the same. The purpose of the report will be served if it is able to facilitate various stake holders to take informed decisions which will result in better management of the state’s environment and improve the quality of life in Himachal Pradesh. Smt. Sarojini Ganju Thakur, IAS Additional Chief Secretary Environment, Science & Technology, Government of Himachal Pradesh vii viii ACKNOWLEDGEMENT The State of Environment Report (SoER) has been prepared by Department of Environment, Science & Technology in collaboration with H.P.

  • History : Project Deepak
    HISTORY : PROJECT DEEPAK 1. Raising & Early History. Project Deepak was raised in May 1961 with Col S N Punjh as Chief Engineer, primarily for the construction of Hindustan-Tibet (H-T) Road. The H-T Road is one of the most difficult roads ever to have been constructed in India. The 76 Km long Pooh-Kaurik sector of H-T Road passes through considerable lengths of sheer vertical hard rock stretches and huge bouldery strata embedded in sand and non-cohesive material, which is inherently unstable. The sector runs along the River Satluj crossing it at several locations. The road runs at altitudes between 1600 to 3600 meters. On the whole, the terrain and climatic conditions are very uncongenial. Many valuable lives were lost during the construction of this road. Thus, this work is a testimony to the sheer grit, determination and perseverance shown by PROJECT DEEPAK right from its early days. The subsequent major events in the history of Project Deepak include:- (a) In 1965, construction of the 122 Km long Road Dhami-Basantpur-Kiongal and 107 Km long stretch of Road Keylong-Sarchu (part of the Manali-Leh road) was entrusted to PROJECT DEEPAK. (b) In December 1966, following disbandment of Project Chetak, all roads of Uttaranchal were taken over by PROJECT DEEPAK. Thus, the 300 Km long Road Rishikesh –Joshimath-Mana, 63 Km long road Road Joshimath-Malari and 260 Km long Road Tanakpur-Askote-Tawaghat came under PROJECT DEEPAK. (c) The early seventies saw Project Deepak spreading its light (Deepak Jyoti) in the states of Rajasthan and even Punjab.

  • Purpose of Hydroelectric Generation.Only 13 Dams Are Used for Flood Control in the Basin and 19 Dams Are Used for Irrigation Along with Other Usage
    Indus (Up to border) Basin Version 2.0 www.india-wris.nrsc.gov.in 1 Indus (Up to border) Basin Preface Optimal management of water resources is the necessity of time in the wake of development and growing need of population of India. The National Water Policy of India (2002) recognizes that development and management of water resources need to be governed by national perspectives in order to develop and conserve the scarce water resources in an integrated and environmentally sound basis. The policy emphasizes the need for effective management of water resources by intensifying research efforts in use of remote sensing technology and developing an information system. In this reference a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed on December 3, 2008 between the Central Water Commission (CWC) and National Remote Sensing Centre (NRSC), Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) to execute the project “Generation of Database and Implementation of Web enabled Water resources Information System in the Country” short named as India-WRIS WebGIS. India-WRIS WebGIS has been developed and is in public domain since December 2010 (www.india- wris.nrsc.gov.in). It provides a ‘Single Window solution’ for all water resources data and information in a standardized national GIS framework and allow users to search, access, visualize, understand and analyze comprehensive and contextual water resources data and information for planning, development and Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM). Basin is recognized as the ideal and practical unit of water resources management because it allows the holistic understanding of upstream-downstream hydrological interactions and solutions for management for all competing sectors of water demand.

  • International Journal of Multidisciplinary Approach and Studies Analyzing Resource Potential for Nature Based Tourism
    International Journal of Multidisciplinary Approach and Studies ISSN NO:: 2348 – 537X Analyzing Resource Potential for Nature Based Tourism: A Case Study of the State of Himachal Pradesh (India) Punit Gautam Associate Professor, Department of Tourism and Hotel Management, North-Eastern Hill University, Shillong, Meghalaya (India) ―Potential‖ broadly insinuates something promising but not yet (fully) exploited; it symbolizes the sum total of qualitative and quantitative values of the given resources on which the degree and extent of its exploitability depends (Kandari, 1984). In the context of tourism, assessing the resource potential in quantitative terms is highly complex process, if not impossible, as it involves the physical, psychological and spiritual demands on the people belonging to diverse geographical, socio-cultural and economic backgrounds who travel under different motives, interests, preferences and immediate needs. To quote Kandari (1984), ―potential for tourism development in any area depends on the availability of recreational resources in addition to the factors like climate, seasons, accessibility, proximity to market, political stability, state of economy and general infrastructure, quality of natural environment, attitude of the local people, travel trade entrepreneurs and tourism planners, the existing tourist plant facilities and the degree to which they can be further developed within the prevailing limitations of natural, cultural and financial environments. Healthy combination of all those and many other factors
