It is holiest of the seven sacred cities (Sapta Puri) in Hinduism and Jainism. Hindus believe that death at Varanasi brings salvation.It is one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world and the oldest in India.

The Kashi Naresh (Maharaja of Kashi) is the chief cultural patron of Varanasi, and an essential part of all religious celebrations. The culture of Varanasi is closely associated with the Ganges. The city has been a cultural center of North India for several thousand years, and has a history that is older than most of the major world religions.

Varanasi has such working groups who have skills and who effectively bring out their product within limited resources and facilities. Entrepreneurs especially from low economic background have been playing a responsible role here and helping the destination to become socially, economically and culturally rich. The main objective of the study is to highlight some of the maJor initiatives taken by the entrepreneurs of Varanasi. Twenty of them were interviewed of several locations in the city. Case studies of four selected working groups are discussed. Further the study focuses on the typology of entrepreneurs in the select locations. The data are also analyzed quantitatively to describe the strategy being used to bring value in the tourism activity. Several suggestions are made to focus on further prospects of tourism in Varanasi, overall country and in the world as a whole. Keywords: Entrepreneurship, Varanasi, marketing strategy, marketing skills, low economic background 1. Introduction Varanasi, historically known as Kashi, has been in influence of religious and historical changes since decades. And amidst these changes there have been several developments in arts, handicrafts, architecture, communication and technologies.

  • Modeling the Efficacy of the Ganga Action Plan's Restoration of The
    Modeling the Efficacy of the Ganga Action Plan’s Restoration of the Ganga River, India By Shaw Lacy A thesis submitted In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Master of Science Natural Resources and Environment at The University of Michigan August 2006 Thesis Committee: Professor Michael Wiley Professor Jonathan Bulkley Abstract. To combat rising levels of water pollution in the Ganges River, the Indian gov- ernment initiated the Ganga Action Plan (GAP) in 1984. After twenty years, it is a com- mon perception that the GAP has failed to achieve the goals of a cleaner river. Using available government data on pollution levels and hydrology, I undertook an of the GAP efficacy for fifteen pollution parameters across 52 water quality sampling points moni- tored by India’s Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) within the Ganga Basin. Dis- solved oxygen, BOD, and COD showed a significant improvement of water quality after twenty years. In addition, fecal and total coliform levels, as well as concentrations of cal- cium, magnesium, and TDS all showed a significant decline. Building on this analysis, a GIS analysis was used to create a spatial model of the majority of the Ganga River net- work using a reach-based ecological classification approach. Using recent GAP monitor- ing data, a multiple linear regression model of expected pollutant loads within each reach (VSEC unit) was created. This model was then used to inventory water quality across the entire basin, based on CPCB criteria. My analysis showed 208 river km were class A, 1,142 river km were class B, 684 river km were class C, 1,614 river km were class D, and 10,403 river km were class E.
