  • Issues Pertaining to Successful Rural Tourism in the Malda District of West Bengal
    International Journal of Engineering Technology Science and Research IJETSR www.ijetsr.com ISSN 2394 – 3386 Volume 4, Issue 9 September 2017 Issues Pertaining to Successful Rural Tourism in the Malda District of West Bengal. Dr. Monirul Islam Assistant Professor Department of Business Administration Aligarh Muslim University, Murshidabad Centre ABSTRACT On account of the green revolution in India, the rural areas are consuming a large quantity of industrial and urban manufactured products. In this context, a special marketing strategy namely, rural marketing has taken shape. Sometimes, rural marketing is confused with agricultural marketing – the later denotes marketing of produce of the rural areas to the urban consumers or industrial consumers, whereas rural marketing involves delivering manufactured or processed inputs or services to rural producers or consumers. Also, when we consider the scenario of India and China, there is a picture that comes out, huge market for the developed products as well as the labor support. Rural tourism or tourism in rural areas is a new form of activity that can bring economic and social benefits to the society. In Asia especially in India, rural tourism in its true form is relatively new. This study identifies West Bengal, a Province in Eastern India; to explore the possibilities of the issues of growth of rural tourism that could play an important role in sustainable development of rural societies. The paper discusses on the socio-economic condition in rural West Bengal and throws light on a few potential rural tourism sites in this part of the state. The rationale behind selection of these potential rural tourism sites has been explained through brief descriptions of each of those sites.

  • A Professionally Managed Eco Tourism Organisation
    Eastern Heavens – A Professionally Managed Eco Tourism Organisation Sikkim – The Beautiful Landscape Sikkim was its own mountain kingdom till 1975 and still retains a very distinctive personality. The meditative, mural-filled traditional monasteries of Tibetan Buddhism coexist with Hindu shrines of the ever-growing Nepali community, both religions creating some astonishing latter-day mega- sculptures to adorn the skyline. Hassle-free and warm-hearted, it's a state that's all too easy to fall in love with, explaining perhaps why permit regulations prevent foreigners staying too long or going too far. Clean, green and 'all organic' since 2016, Sikkim is mostly a maze of plunging, super- steep valleys thick with lush subtropical woodlands and rhododendron groves, rising in the north to the spectacular white-top peaks of the eastern Himalaya. When clouds clear, an ever-thrilling experience from many a ridgetop perch is spotting the world's third-highest mountain, Khangchendzonga (8598m), on the northwestern dawn horizon. A fairytale land indeed, Sikkim is adorned with glistening high altitude lakes, rolling green mountains, pretty rhododendron groves, azure rivers, milky waterfalls and vivid monasteries. The west-most Northeastern state of Sikkim is evidently an abode of beauty, however, it does have a window of opportunity for adventure. Not to forget, the state is famous for its incredible view of the third highest mountain in the world, Mount Kanchenjunga/Khangchendzonga. The first glance of Sikkim tourism impresses tourists with a scenic view of chains of mountains and lush greenery. In fact, the state boasts dramatic contours that range from dense forests to barren lands and patches of meadows.

  • Socio-Economic Condition and Environmental Problems of Dzuluk Village, East Sikkim Himalaya: a Geographical Appraisal

Over the last fifteen years or so this village has emerged as an important tourist destination in this part of Sikkim where every year thousands of tourists from different parts of India come to enjoy the aesthetic view of the Himalaya. The village is small with about thirty households and the economy of the people is largely based on tourism. Most of the villagers earn their livelihood from tourists as they arrange accommodation and food for them in their home-stays. However, the villagers face certain drawbacks like road blockages due to landslides in the rainy season and snow avalanches in the winter. Socio-economic life has been studied here by generating primary data by door-to-door questionnaire survey and necessary suggestions and recommendations have been provided for the development of environment of the area and livelihood of the villagers. Keywords- Socio-economy, tourist destination, aesthetic view, accommodation, livelihood --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Date of Submission: 01-08-2021 Date of acceptance: 15-08-2021 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I.

It is generally estimated by developing rainfall- Rrunoff (RR) models. There are many techniques employed for RR modeling and artificial neural network (ANN) is one of the popular methods among them. The gradient descent (GD) and Levenberg-Marquardt (LM) optimization methods are commonly adopted algorithms for the training of ANN models. It has been reported that the performance of these algorithms is always sensitive to their initial weights. In this paper, the sensitivity of these two training algorithms to initial weights in the performance of ANN-RR model was investigated. The best ANN architecture was determined using a trial and error procedure in which the number of hidden neurons was varied from 1 to 20 and the architecture giving best performance in terms of certain error statistics was selected as the best. Each of the twenty architectures was trained using BPA and LMA and the best architecture was selected, named ANN-BPA and ANN-LMA, respectively. Then, these best ANN architectures were trained on ten different set of initial weights using both BPA and LMA. The performance of the best ANN model trained by BPA and LMA on different initial weights was then compared using standard error statistical measures.
