RYS-India will hold its 2016 service project in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh Krishna Adhikari October 24, 2016 Lucknow, India—The Religious Youth Service (RYS) of India will hold its 2016 service project in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, India from November 25 to 29, 2016, under the theme, “Creating Peace and Harmony through Service and Universal Love.” The project is being sponsored and organized by UPF in collaboration with the municipal body of Nagar Nigam, Lucknow; and the department of Basic Education of Uttar Pradesh. Young men and women (between 16 and 40 years old) from different faith traditions from around the world are invited to participate in this project. RYS is a project of UPF that offers service-learning opportunities with a special focus on developing personal leadership and peacemaking skills. Through living together and providing altruistic service in a community, participants demonstrate that it is possible for our global human family to come together in peace for our mutual well-being. During the RYS-India project, participants will engage in community service; take part in interactive and educational programs; and visit religious, cultural and historic sites. The main service project will be the repairing and painting of a wall of a local primary school. The wall serves to separate the school from a garbage area and, therefore, the service project supports the nation’s Clean India campaign to promote better hygiene and raise health awareness. Among the historic sites the participants will visit in the city of Lucknow, the capital of Uttar Pradesh state, will be the Bara Imambara and the Chota Imambara Shia Muslim shrines, the Lucknow Charbagh Railway Station, Ambedkar and Janeshwar Mishra Parks, and the British Residency Complex. RYS will provide free lodging, food and ground transportation. Only a USD$ 20.00 registration fee is required. .

KEYWORDS Monuments of Lucknow, tourism product, tourism development etc. Jatashankar R. Tewari Assistant Professor and Coordinator- Hotel Management, School of Tourism and Hotel Management, Uttarakhand Open University, Haldwani District –Nainital Uttarakhand (India) ABSTRACT Monumental heritage constitutes a great opportunity for many countries, so that they can develop strategy to convert this heritage into “a tourism Product”. Host population plays very important role in development of tourism activity at any destination. Host population is an important stack holder of the tourism. The level of tolerance, friendly behaviour is of paramount importance in flourishing of the tourism at a destination. The product knowledge is im- perative for the all stack holder. The local people’s awareness about the destination’s monumental heritage, will surely be affecting the growth of the tourism at the destination. The present paper attempts to find the local host populations aware- ness about the heritage of their location. The study shows there is significant lack in the awareness of the tourism product in host population. The government and non-government organisations must participate in awareness campaign so that local population may actively participate in development of tourism at destination.

INTRODUCTION 1 ______________________________________________________________________________________ 1.1 Introduction Urbanisation and economic development have caused rapid city expansion in size and structure. The urban structure is becoming increasingly complex, heterogeneous and irregular in shape. The development spreads over to the peri-urban areas resulting in degradation of natural and rural land over time. This process will continue further, if remain unchecked through proper planning measures. This will adversely impact the quality of life of both urban and peri-urban dwellers. Although the urban sprawl in a developing city cannot be stopped, however; a remedy to this issue can be devised through strict zoning regulations based on land suitability and carrying capacity, which allows land use to be channelled towards more sustainable uses. In this context, research study entitled Dynamics of Peri-Urban Areas: Prospects and Challenges of Sustainable Development - A case study of Peri-Urban area of Lucknow is undertaken and peri-urban areas are illustrated at Map 1. Lucknow has been divided into two parts based on growing urbanisation i.e. old Lucknow and New Lucknow. The peri-urban area denote to a grey area which is neither entirely urban nor purely rural in the traditional sense. Sometimes, Peri-urban area is Photo 1: A bird’s eye view of Central area of Lucknow described as physically defined transitional area bordering a city, characterised with mix of both rural and urban form and functions. Peri-urban areas are ‘those areas surrounding the cities within a daily commuting reach of the city core. In some parts of Asia, these regions can stretch for up to thirty kilometres away from city core’.

Tandon 2 1Directorate of Environment, U.P., Lucknow 2Department of Botany University of Lucknow *Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract Some outskirts and highway areas of Lucknow were surveyed and two Moss Physcomitrium pyriforme and Octoblepharum albidum (Hedw.) samples were collected from some selected areas. Samples were collected from soils and moist brick walls and heavy metals Pb, Cu, and Co analyzed for the main cause of variation in biochemical functions such as chlorophyll content, Protein and catalase. Samples collected from Garden and Monument areas were treated as Control. Samples collected from outskirts and highways areas showed higher level of heavy metals in comparison to the samples collected from Garden and Monument sites. However variable results were obtained with regard to variation in biochemical functions such as chlorophyll content, protein and catalase. Key words: Biochemical functions, heavy Metals, outskirts and highways area, Mosses Introduction Indeed quite a large number of heavy metals are essential to plant and animal including human lives. These include to name a few, iron, manganese, copper, nickel, zinc, cobalt, chromium and molybdenum. In vitamins these metals are required in fewer quantities but when they are in high level in atmosphere they become toxic and cause toxicity in atmosphere. This is due to the basic fact that metals are not bio degradable like most organic pollutants.
