Subsequently, a Mission Management Board under the Chairmanship of the Chief Secretary, UP was constituted for overseeing the implementation, monitoring and reviewing of the various programmes / schemes formulated for the protection of Taj Mahal. These schemes were related to uninterrupted power supply, construction & widening of roads, augmentation of water supply, improvement of drainage and sanitation, solid waste management, etc. Ministry of Environment & Forests (MoEF) retained National Environmental Engineering Research Institute (NEERI) for conducting Environmental Post Evaluation of the Projects under the Schemes in the Taj Trapezium Zone. The objectives of the study was to see improvement in environmental quality on the environs of Taj Mahal and other historical monuments, to provide tangible/quantifiable benefits of the 8 completed projects and to provide clear cut directions on taking up new projects based on the evaluation report. The report based on the evaluation of various schemes has come out with clear cut recommendations which should facilitate the Ministry for taking necessary decisions. The co-operation and assistance rendered by the concerned State Government Departments and Commissioner, Agra and the officials of MoEF in this study are gratefully acknowledged.

  • Gokul Study Report
    Gokul Study Report July 23, 2016 1. Introduction and Background Gokul is a small town in Uttar Pradesh on the east side of the Yamuna River. A general location of Gokul in relation to Mathura and Agra is shown in Figure 1. below. Gokul is located 15 km south- east of Mathura in Uttar Pradesh between 27.45° North Latitude and 77.72° E / 27.45; 77.72ast Latitude. It has an average elevation of 163 m (534 feet). Gokul encompasses a small area of about 2 sq km. Figure 1: Satellite map of Gokul (courtesy of Google Maps) Page 1/11 According to Vedic Scripture, Lord Krishna was brought up under the care of Nanda and Yoshoda, the first family of the village. Since Kangsha, Krishna's uncle, used to kill every baby born to Devaki, Nanda exchanged his own new born daughter with Vasudeva in order to smuggle Krishna away without raising Kangsha's suspicion. During his stay at Gokul, Krishna spent his time in fun and frolic, though his life did come under threat a few times. He was very naughty as a child, and when Krishna was an infant, and the demoness Putana came to the village at the appeal of Kangsha. She laced her nipples with poison and tried to breastfeed Krishna. However, Krishna suckled on her until he completely drained her life away. The river Yamuna used to flow near the village as it still does, and a five-headed serpent known as Kaliya used to live in its waters. Kāliyā was a powerful cobra, who made the river waters poisonous and made the forests barren.

Departure! 169 More Free Downloads at: www.krishnapath.org This transcendental land of Vrindaban is populated by goddesses of fortune, who manifest as milkmaids and love Krishna above everything. The trees here fulfill all desires, and the waters of immortality flow through land made of philosopher’s stone. Here, all speech is song, all walking is dancing and the flute is the Lord’s constant companion. Cows flood the land with abundant milk, and everything is self-luminous, like the sun. Since every moment in Vrindaban is spent in loving service to Krishna, there is no past, present, or future. —Brahma Samhita Acknowledgements Thanks go to Dr.
