Past Management History of Mangrove Forests Of
Indian Journal of Biological Sciences, 19 : 24 – 31, 2013 PAST MANAGEMENT HISTORY OF MANGROVE FORESTS OF SUNDARBANS Prasanta Kumar Pandit Conservator of Forests Administration, Publicity and Marketing, WB Aranya Bhaban, Block-LA-10A, Sector-III, Salt Lake City Kolkata, West Bengal, India E mail : [email protected] ABSTRACT Sundarban has a long history of management and conservation starting from Mauryan period (321-226 BC). During Gupta dynasty (320-415 AD) it was well managed. In Munhall period (1575-1765 AD) Sundarban was mainly managed for revenue generation.First survey of Sundarban was carried out by Britishers in between period 1769-1773. Britishers allowed clearance of forest until 1855 before the enactment of Forest Act. First management plan Sundarban was written in the year 1871 in which regulation on harvesting of Sundari (Heritiera fomes) was prescribed. Some part of Sundarban was declared as reserve forest in the year 1878.Initially forest of Sundarban was thought to be an inexhaustible resource but gradually thought it was not to be so. So different management plan recommended restriction and regulation on use of forest based resources. After 1878 different management plan was written before and after Independence of India with various recommendations for better management and protection of unique biodiversity of Sundarbans. Out of total area (10,260 sq km) approximately 40% area falls under India rest of the part belongs to Bangladesh after independence of India. Owing to global importance of Indian Sundarban it was declared as World Heritage Site by UNESCO in the year 1985 and Biosphere Reserve in the year 1989. -

River Assessment and Water Management Strategy for South-Westcoastal Region of Bangladesh
RIVER ASSESSMENT AND WATER MANAGEMENT STRATEGY FOR SOUTH-WESTCOASTAL REGION OF BANGLADESH 1PROBAL SAHA, 2ANIMA ASHRAF, 3JARIN TASNEEM, 4MITHILA CHKRABORTY 1Water Resources Development, Institute of Water and Flood Management, Bangladesh University of Engineering & Technology, Dhaka, Bangladesh 2Climate Change and Development, Independent University Bangladesh, Dhaka, Bangladesh 3Department of Civil Engineering, Bangladesh University of Engineering & Technology, Dhaka, Bangladesh 4Centre for Climate Change and Environmental Research, BRAC University E-mail: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Abstract - The upstream-downstream water sharing between transboundary riversis challenging and growing conflicts among neighboring countries. The Ganges, one of the largest river systems in the world, rises south of the main Himalayan and divides near Gangotri (elevation 4500 m) in Uttar Pradesh, India. The river divides into two channels below Farakka. The left main river enters Bangladesh and joins the Brahmaputra River at Goalundo. Shyamnagar, Satkhira is located at the south-western coastal region of Bangladesh and most of the rivers in this region receive flow mainly from the Ganges river system. After the construction of Farakka Dam, distributary rivers of the Ganges inside Bangladesh are slowly facing death for not receiving their winter flow. As a result freshwater source is decreasing and the salinity situation has been aggravated in the southwestern coastal region of Bangladesh. The major portion of the floodplain is low-lying, barely one meter above mean sea level and below high tide level. Moreover, people’s interest in shrimp culture has aggravated salinity in the region along with the climate change impacts. So, it is necessary to prepare a distinct and realistic water management plan for the south-western coastal region of Bangladesh. -

Empire's Garden: Assam and the Making of India
A book in the series Radical Perspectives a radical history review book series Series editors: Daniel J. Walkowitz, New York University Barbara Weinstein, New York University History, as radical historians have long observed, cannot be severed from authorial subjectivity, indeed from politics. Political concerns animate the questions we ask, the subjects on which we write. For over thirty years the Radical History Review has led in nurturing and advancing politically engaged historical research. Radical Perspec- tives seeks to further the journal’s mission: any author wishing to be in the series makes a self-conscious decision to associate her or his work with a radical perspective. To be sure, many of us are currently struggling with the issue of what it means to be a radical historian in the early twenty-first century, and this series is intended to provide some signposts for what we would judge to be radical history. It will o√er innovative ways of telling stories from multiple perspectives; comparative, transnational, and global histories that transcend con- ventional boundaries of region and nation; works that elaborate on the implications of the postcolonial move to ‘‘provincialize Eu- rope’’; studies of the public in and of the past, including those that consider the commodification of the past; histories that explore the intersection of identities such as gender, race, class and sexuality with an eye to their political implications and complications. Above all, this book series seeks to create an important intellectual space and discursive community to explore the very issue of what con- stitutes radical history. Within this context, some of the books pub- lished in the series may privilege alternative and oppositional politi- cal cultures, but all will be concerned with the way power is con- stituted, contested, used, and abused. -
Water Chemistry in and Around the Sundarbans Mangrove Forest, Southwest Bangladesh
Khulna University Studies Special Issue (SESB 2010): 9-20: June, 2010 RESEARCH ARTICLE CopyrightKhulna University WATER CHEMISTRY IN AND AROUND THE SUNDARBANS MANGROVE FOREST, SOUTHWEST BANGLADESH Jashim Uddin Ahmad1 and Mohammad Sayadur Rahman2* 1Department of Chemistry, Jahangirnagar University, Savar, Dhaka, Bangladesh 2 Chemistry Discipline, Khulna University, Khulna 9208, Bangladesh Abstract: The study presents the spatial and temporal patterns of river water chemistry at 25 sites in and around the Sundarbans. Conductivity, TDS, major cations, major anions, alkalinity, pH and hardness were determined during September 2008 to July 2009 in four seasons at Sarankhola, Chandpai, Nalian and Burigualiny from Bhola, Passur, Sipsa and Khulpatua rivers respectively. There is wide temporal variation in conductivity (from 201 µS/cm to 43.7 mS/cm) and TDS (0.13 to 31.2 g/L) from the eastern to western Sundarbans suggests low flow of fresh water into the western Sundarbans. Variation in major cations Na+ (9225 to 25 mg/L), K+ (4 to 510 mg/L), Ca+2 (26 to 273 mg/l) and Mg+2 (5 to 869) and major anions Cl- (13 - -2 to 13471 mg/L), HCO3 (102 to 180 mg/L) and SO4 (9 to 1414 mg/L) were also observed. Alkalinity, pH and hardness were 90 to 224 mg CaCO3/L, 6.5 to 8.3 and 85 to 4235 mg CaCO3/L respectively. Data on DO, BOD, COD, nutrients and heavy metals during 2001-2009 were collected from secondary sources. Dissolved oxygen (4.9 to 6.9 mg/L) is within the Environmental Quality Standard (EQS) of Bangladesh. -

GHOSH Director General of Archaeology in India DEPARTMENT OF ARCHAEOLOGY GOVERNMENT OF INDIA NEW DELHI 1959 Price Rs. 1000 or 16shillings COPYRIGHT DEPARTMENT OF ARCHAEOLOGY GOVERNMENT OF INDIA PRINTED AT THE CORONATION PRINTING WORKS, DELHI ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This sixth number of the annual Review tries to embody, like its predecessors, information on all archaeological activities in the country during the previous year. The varied sources of information are obvious in most cases: where they are not, they have, as far as possible, been suitably acknowledged. From the ready and unconditional response that I have all along been receiving to my request for material, it is obvious that it is realized at all quarters that the Review has been performing its intended function of publishing, within the least possible time, the essential archaeological news of the country. At the same time, as it incorporates news obtained from diverse sources, the assumption of responsibility by me, as the editor, for the accuracy of the news, much less of the interpretation thereof, is precluded. My sincerest thanks are due to all—officers of the Union Department of Archaeology and of the State Governments, heads of other organizations concerned with archaeology and individuals devoting themselves to archaeological pursuits— who have furnished me with material that is included in the Review and to those colleagues of mine in the Department who have assisted me in editing it and seeing it through the press.
