  • PLP 2016-17 Kokrajhar District
    PLP 2016-17 Kokrajhar District EXECUTIVE SUMMARY I. The criticality of capital formation ‘in’ and ‘for’ agriculture need not be overemphasized. However, the recent declining trend in investment credit vis-à-vis crop loan has serious implications for sustaining capital formation. The theme selected for the PLP 2015-16 is “Accelerating the pace of capital formation in agriculture and allied sector”. The PLP maps the potential in priority sectors which could be exploited with institutional credit within a specified time frame. PLP are intended to provide a meaningful direction to the flow of credit to different sectors at the ground level taking into account all relevant factors. The various linkage and other support required to be provided by line departments to facilitate credit flow as planned are also listed in the PLP. II. Kokrajhar district is one of the four districts of the Bodoland Territorial Autonomous Districts (BTAD). The district comprises of three sub-divisions namely Kokrajhar, Gossaigaon and Parbatjora; eleven development blocks of which five are full blocks namely – Kokrajhar, Dotoma, Gossaigaon, Kochugaon and Debitola and six are partial blocks which were earlier parts of Dhubri district namely Hatidura, Rupsi, Mohamaya, Chapar Salkosha, Golakganj and Bilasipara.

  • Assessment of Ground Water Quality in Kokrajhar District of Bodoland Territorial Council, Assam, India Basanta K
    Int. J. Chem. Sci.: 10(2), 2012, 1067-1073 ISSN 0972-768X www.sadgurupublications.com ASSESSMENT OF GROUND WATER QUALITY IN KOKRAJHAR DISTRICT OF BODOLAND TERRITORIAL COUNCIL, ASSAM, INDIA BASANTA K. DAS* and KRISHNA G. BHATTACHARYYAa Department of Chemistry, Kokrajhar Govt. College, KOKRAJHAR – 783370 (Assam) INDIA aGauhati University, GUWAHATI – 781014 (Assam) INDIA ABSTRACT Water is an extremely important natural resource, essential for sustaining life on Earth. Kokrajhar district of Bodoland Territorial Council (BTC), Assam as a whole is economically backward and the large majority of people belonging to scheduled tribes do not have access to amenities of modern life including a safe supply of water. They depend on all forms of water sources for their needs. In this work, 36 ground water samples of the district, collected from different locations in three seasons of pre- monsoon, monsoon and post-monsoon were analyzed for the drinking water quality parameters. The values of pH, conductivity, turbidity, total dissolved solids, hardness, bicarbonate, chloride, sulphate, nitrate, phosphate, fluoride, Ca, Mg, Na, K, Fe and As, show that the groundwater is not completely safe. The water is characterized by very high iron content in excess of the maximum prescribed limit of World Health Organization. However, most of the water samples did not have high concentrations of the toxic contaminants, fluoride and arsenic. In absence of any type of industrial activities in the district, the water does not indicate chemical contamination of major significance, but causes of concern still exist. Key words: Groundwater, Ring wells, Water pollution, Water quality, Bodoland. INTRODUCTION The quality of water is of vital concern for mankind as it is directly linked with human welfare.
