NATIONAL ACADEMY OF VETERINARY SCIENCES (INDIA) - Orientation and brief History Prof. Dr. R.N. Kohli 1.1: BACKGROUND The National Academy of Veterinary Sciences (India) - an apex premier agency for the development of veterinary sciences in India was established on lines similar to the National Academy of Medical Sciences by a few eminent visionary veterinarians to promote and consolidate the scientific views on policy matters related to Veterinary Science and Animal Husbandry and to strive for advancement of livestock sector in national economy through promotion of animal welfare. It has been registered by the Registrar of Societies, Delhi vide Registration Certificate No. S-2/4471 of 1993 dated 7th July 1993 and has emerged as the largest think-tank of all branches of the profession for research & development departments of the country engaged in animal husbandry & veterinary sectors. The Academy was established to promote the interests of veterinarians in the country and was launched with Dr. Chinta Mani Singh, regarded as the doyen of Veterinary Services in India, as its Founder President. The Academy was formally inaugurated by Hon’ble Minister of State for Animal Husbandry and Dairying (Independent Charge) Government of India, Dr. Raghuvansh Prasad Singh on 18th December 1996 in Vigyan Bhawan, New Delhi, and the Scrolls of Fellowship to the duly elected National Fellows/ Members during 1994-95, were presented to them by the Hon’ble Minister at the Investiture ceremony. The following are the aims and objectives of the Academy. 1.2: OBJECTIVES • Promotion of Knowledge of Veterinary Sciences in India and its practical application to problems of National welfare. • The recognition and encouragement of merit in all branches of Veterinary Sciences. • To secure co-ordination between Veterinary and other scientific academics, societies, associations, institutions and Government Veterinary/Animal Husbandry and scientific departments and services. • To seek help and co-operation of international agencies and national bodies of other countries. • To act through properly constituted national committee for veterinary scientific subjects for undertaking such Veterinary Scientific work of national and international importance as the Academy may be called upon to perform the public and the Government. • To publish such proceedings, abstracts, journals, memoirs, transactions and other publications as may be found desirable 1 NAVS Hand Book 2016 • To promote and maintain a liaison between Veterinary Medicine and other sciences. • To secure and manage funds and endowments for the promotion of the objectives of the Academy, and • To undertake any other steps that may assist in, conducive to, or be necessary for the fulfillment of the above mentioned Aims and Objectives of the Academy. Note: Initially, the following objective was also included in the ‘Memorandum of Association’ but was subsequently dropped during the tenure of the next managing body elected in 2004: “To develop pattern(s) of a high level postgraduate examination on an all India basis in various disciplines of veterinary Sciences to ensure uniform standard of postgraduate veterinary qualification for which an appropriate machinery may be established”. 1.3: OFFICE ACOMMODATION Since the Founding President of the NAVS, Dr. C.M. Singh, concurrently held the position of President, Veterinary Council of India (VCI) also, the Academy was registered C/o the VCI, and the NAVS functioned from the VCI premises at16/15, Western Extension Area, Arya Samaj Road, Karol Bagh, New Delhi from 1993-2002. Thereafter, the premises of the VCI were shifted to August Kranti Bhawan, Bhikaji Cama Place, New Delhi. However, in May 2003, the VCI asked the NAVS to shift its office to some other place. Accordingly, the moves were initiated to shift the office of the Academy to some other place. However, the Governing Council meetings of the Academy were allowed to continue to be held in the VCI premises. During March 2004, the Governing Council decided to conduct the elections, which were held from 1st April 2004. Unfortunately, the Founder President Dr CM Singh expired on 29th June 2004. As the VCI had expressed its inability to let the Academy use its premises, the Academy temporarily functioned from the premises of Hind Agro Industries Ltd (HAIL), B-3, Friend’s Colony (West), Main Mathura Road, New Delhi, courtesy Mr. Sirajudin Qureshi, Managing Director, HAIL and courtesy the newly elected President of the Academy (Dr. S.K. Ranjhan), who was also associated with HAIL. However, the Academy did not succeed in finding a suitable location during the tenure of this as well as the next Governing Councils elected for the periods 2007-10 and 2010-13. The Governing Council meetings were held during this period in various venues in the premises of VCI, IDA, RVS, NASC etc., using the courtesy of these organizations. Governing Council and General Body meetings of the Academy were also held at the venues of NAVS Convocation-cum-Conventions at different institutions in various states of India. The next Governing Council (elected for 2014-2016), which took charge on January 1, 2014 was headed by the then DDG (Animal Sciences), ICAR (Dr. KML Pathak) was successful in getting an office room allotted to NAVS in the NASC Complex in New Delhi by the Secretary, DARE and Director General, ICAR (Dr. S. Ayyappan). The office of National Academy of Veterinary Sciences (India) was inaugurated by Hon’ble Dr. S. Ayyappan, Secretary, DARE and Director General, ICAR on 15th January 2014 at NASC Complex, in the presence of Shri Arvind Kaushal, Additional Secretary, DARE and Secretary, ICAR, Dr. A.K. Srivastava, Director, NDRI, Karnal, Dr. R. P. Singh, Secretary, IAUA, and NAVS Office Bearers and 2 NAVS Hand Book 2016 members of the Governing Council headed by Dr.

    Comprehensive Traffic & Transportation Plan for Bangalore Chapter 1 - Introduction CHAPTER ––– 1 INTRODUCTION 1.11.11.1 GENERAL BACKGROUND 1.1.1 Bangalore is the fifth largest metropolis (6.5 m in 2004) in India and is one of the fastest growing cities in Asia. It is also the capital of State of Karnataka. The name Bangalore is an anglicised version of the city's name in the Kannada language, Bengaluru. It is globally recognized as IT capital of India and also as a well developed industrial city. 1.1.2 Bangalore city was built in 1537 by Kempegowda. During the British Raj, Bangalore developed as a centre for colonial rule in South India. The establishment of the Bangalore Cantonment brought in large numbers of migrant Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh and North Indian workers for developing and maintaining the infrastructure of the cantonment. New extensions were added to the old town by creating Chamarajpet, Seshadripuram, Nagasandra, Yediyur, Basavanagudi, Malleswaram, Kalasipalyam and Gandhinagar upto 1931. During the post independence period Kumara Park and Jayanagar came into existence. The cantonment area covers nearly dozen revenue villages, which included Binnamangala, Domlur, Neelasandra and Ulsoor to name a few. In 1960, at Binnamangala, new extension named Indiranagar was created. The defence establishments and residential complexes are in part of the core area. It is a radial pattern city growing in all directions. The Bangalore city which was 28.85 sq. Km. in 1901 increased to 174.7 sqkm in 1971 to 272 sqkm in 1986 and presently it has expanded to nearly 437 sqkm.

  • Last Mile Connectivity of “Namma Metro” Purple Line Corridor
    Assessing Metro rail system as a means of mitigation strategy to Climate change Foreword Bengaluru famed as the garden city has gained global acclaim for development in Information technology and Biotechnology. Due to its fast development and urbanization in recent years, the city, which was an air conditioned city around two decades back has slowly warmed up and with exponential increase in automobiles in the city roads, it has also gained the tag of being a highly polluted city. To reduce the vehicular density and increase the commuter comforts and also to bring in climate resilience in the city, the first Metro rail project in Bengaluru was planned in two corridors. The East-West Corridor (18.10km) from Baiyappanahalli (East) - Mysore Road (West) was commissioned in 2016. As per The Times of India report, August 4th, 2017, Bengaluru Metropolitan Transport Corporation (BMTC) has seen a drop of 2-3% in its revenue after Phase 1 of Namma Metro became fully operational in June, 2017. The Metro ridership has also increased to 34% from June 2016 to July 2017. The study entitled, “Assessing Metro Rail System as a means of Mitigation Strategy to Climate Change” conducted by the Centre for Climate Change in EMPRI during 2016-17 has assessed the utility and benefits from a commuter perception angle especially with reference to the economic and social perspectives. The commuter’s methods of reaching to the station are also evaluated. Time saved in travel and reduction in exposure to polluted air in the road are the major gains but there are some teething problems in relation to last mile connectivity.
