Rural Craft Hubsof West Bengal
Rural Chau Mask Craft Charida Hub Purulia Chau Mukhosh Shilpi Sangha Supported by the Department of MSME&T, Government of West Bengal and West Bengal Khadi & Village Industries Board Rural Craft HubsOf West Bengal Handicrafts of Bengal embody our rich heritage of aesthetics, cr ea tivity and artistry. The craft sector provides low cost, green livelihood opportunities to more than 5.5 lakh men and women. Jalpaiguri Alipurduar The sector represents economic lifeline of the vulnerable sections of the society, with women accounting for around 50% of the crafts persons and a significant number belonging to the scheduled castes, tribes and religious minorities. In today's globalised world, the growing retail industry, fashion and luxury markets, demand for green production, potential for e-commerce have created new opportunities for developing a vibrant craft economy thereby providing increased income opportunities to the craft communities like the Patuas, potters, weavers, wood carvers, Dokra makers etc. Besides its high potential for employment, the craft sector is economically important from the point of low capital investment, high ratio of value addition, and high potential for export and foreign exchange earnings for the country. The Government of West Bengal thus aims to unleash the potential of the sector in terms of employment, enterprises, export and growth. The Department of MSME&T, Government of West Bengal in collaboration with UNESCO, New Delhi is developing 10 rural craft hubs in the state. The vision is to develop the villages with families traditionally skilled in craft traditions like Sitalpati, Madurkathi, Terracotta, Patachitra, Dokra, Wooden and Chau masks, Wooden and Clay doll making and Kantha as vibrant craft hubs connected to national and international market. -

Study of Water Quality of Swarnrekha River, Ranchi, Jharkhand, India
AEGAEUM JOURNAL ISSN NO: 0776-3808 Study of water quality of Swarnrekha River, Ranchi, Jharkhand, India Suresh Kumar 1, Sujata kumari 2 1. Dr. Shyama Prasad Mukherjee University, Ranchi, Jharkhand, India 2. Ranchi University, Ranchi, Jharkhand, India Corresponding Author: [email protected] Abstract The name of river “Swarnrekha” is given after in the ancient period due to the occurrence of “gold streaks” in the river water or river sediments. The river originated from a “seepage cum underground well”, locally called “Ranichuan” at the Nagari village of the Ranchi district. It is the first river which originates from seepage well locally called “Chuan” basically a great seepage well having a catchment area. According to Hindu Mythology, it is said that this Ranichuan was carved by the lord Rama by his arrow while Sita, his wife, was feeling thirsty during the period of Ramayana. In this way, we say that the river is basically originated from the seepage water or ground water. It travels towards the south east of Ranchi to East Singhbhum to Sarikhela and finally confluence with Damodar River at cretina mouth of the river. Previously, it was very pure form of drinkable water and day by day its quality deteriorated due to the anthropogenic activities and ultimately whole stretches of the river turned into garbage field and most polluted water streams. So, now we can say the river turned from gold streak to garbage streak and not suitable for the human beings without treatment. Physical, Chemical and microbial properties of the river water from point of origin to the lower chutia is deterioted such as water is very clean at the site of origin and became gradually hazy and dirt as it crosses through the habitants or settlements.
