The transformation being driven by our Rural Development Fellows, who are ably supported by VSTF’s central team is a testament to their passion and commitment towards social change and is truly commendable. VSTF is an example of how a truly successful Public-Private Partnership can bring about a sustained transformation in people’s lives across the country. The convergence model of development pioneered by VSTF, in which all stakeholders have contributed financially or technically to bring about a transformation in the villages has set the benchmark for PPP’s in the development sector in India for many years to come. We hope that through this unique partnership model, VSTF will positively transform many more lives in the future. We are also pleased to bring you a new, thematic wise monthly progress report which gives our readers an in-depth, monthly review about Maharashtra State and the Centre’s schemes as well as interventions of our NGO’s and Partners being implemented in VSTF villages in particular sector(s). Given the visible and sustained transformation that rural housing interventions have brought to the people in all of VSTF selected villages, this month’s selected theme is ‘ CONVERGENCE OF RURAL HOUSING INTERVENTIONS IN VSTF VILLAGES’. We hope you find the monthly reports informative and provides you with an in-depth insight into VSTF’s interventions on the ground. From all of us at the VSTF family, we would like to wish you a happy and prosperous Diwali in advance.

Pesticide is a substance intended for preventing, destroying, repelling or migrating pests. A substance intended for use as plant growth regulator, defoliant or desiccant is also classified as pesticide. Pesticides are classified into insecticides, fungicides, herbicides or weedicides, acaricides, nematicides based on the target pest. The fundamental contribution to the green revolution has been the development and application of pesticides for the control of wide variety of insectivores and herbivores pests that would otherwise diminishes the quantity and quality of food products.

Abstract The present study deals with the diversity of meiobenthic fauna of Nathsagar reservoir (Paithan) Dist. Aurangabad, Maharashtra, for a period of two years February 2008 to January 2009 and February 2009 to January 2010. Forty six 46 species of meiobenthic fauna consisting of Rotifera, Cladocera, Copepoda, Ostracoda, Protozoa and Other fauna were recorded in the present study. In the total meiobenthic faunal density, Copepoda constitute 27.62 % followed by Rotifera 24.88 %, Cladocera 17.10 %, Ostracoda 14.78 %, protozoan 10.61 % and other fauna 5.08%. Meiobenthic fauna are the major mode of energy transfer between phytoplankton and end users like finfishes, shellfishes etc. in sustainable development of ecosystem. KEYWORDS: Community composition, Density, Diversity, Meiobenthic fauna, Nathsagar Reservoir (Paithan). Introduction:- Understanding the roles of meiofauna as a link between microbial food resources and macro organisms and agents in nutrient regeneration were identified by Hildrew (1992) as crucial for understanding energy flow in the food webs of streams. The meiofauna are defined as those benthic animals that pass through a 500-µm sieve but are retained on a 40-µm sieve (Higgins and Thiel, 1988).

However, in recent years, while declining HIV trends are evident at the national level as well as in most of the States, some low prevalence and vulnerable States have shown rising trends, warranting focused prevention efforts in specific areas. The National AIDS Control Programme (NACP) is strongly evidence-based and evidence-driven. Based on evidence from ‘Triangulation of Data’ from multiple sources and giving due weightage to vulnerability, the organizational structure of NACP has been decentralized to identified districts for priority attention. The programme has been successful in creating a robust database on HIV/AIDS through the HIV Sentinel Surveillance system, monthly programme reporting data and various research studies.
