INTRODUCTION: Phytosociology deals with plant communities, their composition and development, and the relationship between the species within them. A Phytosociological system is a system for classifying these communities. The aim of phytosociology is to achieve a coefficient empirical model of vegetation using plant taxa combination that characterizes vegetation units. Phytosociology is useful to describe the population dynamics of each plant species occurring in a particular community and to understand how they relate to the other species in the same community (Mishra et al., 2012). The herbaceous layer composition is changing continuously in space and time due to a multitude of factors, such as grazing, fire, and rainfall which differs in intensity and duration (Shameem, et al., 2010). Maintaining or increasing the plant species diversity is an important goal of habitat managers in semi-arid environments (West, 1993). Phytosociological investigation of vegetation serves as a pre-requisite for investigating the details of primary productivity of ecosystems. Species diversity in the tropics varies dramatically between habitats. We know that ecosystems are undergoing change due to pollution, invasive species, overexploitation by humans, and climate change. Phytosociological analysis of any vegetation forms an important part of ecological study as it provides a clear understanding of the community structure which is necessary for adequate characterization of the present community. The present investigation was carried out with the object to study the plant communities associated with and depleting plant species found wild on the overgrazed Valley of Keshkal to understand distribution and dominance of the particular species in all protected as well as distributed habitat. Tropical and subtropical forests are often referred to as one of the most species-diverse terrestrial ecosystems. Their immense biodiversity generates a variety of natural resources which help to sustain the livelihood of local communities. However, many tropical forests are under great anthropogenic pressure and require proper management measures to maintain the overall biodiversity, productivity and sustainability. Most of the forests are disappearing at alarming rate owing to deforestation for extraction of timber and other forest products (Murphy and Lugo, 1986; Hireman et al.,2002). A sound understanding of the richness of species is necessary for appropriate conservation and restoration of the biological diversity. Forest ecosystems are the major repository of genes and species in a region. Any activity on forest lands will have a significant impact on local, regional and global biodiversity (Kimmain, 1997). Phytosociological data for the state of Chhattisgarh in general and Keshkal region in particular are scanty. Some of the earlier studies in this area are by https://lifesciencesleaflets.petsd.org/ PEER-REVIEWED Page | 34 Life Sciences Leaflets FREE DOWNLOAD ISSN 2277-4297(Print) 0976–1098(Online) Gopalkrishna (2000) for Warangal and for the southern Eastern Ghats by Reddy et al., (2008). Besides, no assessment of forest vegetation in terms of quantitative and floristic analysis has been done in the protected areas of the Deccan biogeography region. The available local floral data collection endeavors have documented plant species occurring in the district based on random sampling surveys. Therefore, the present study is aimed at quantitative assessment of the vegetation of Keshkal valley. Kondagaon division is well known in biodiversity as it consists of forest cover containing rich flora and fauna. Hence, the present study was undertaken during 2017– 18 in respect to phytosociological and other related parameters of floral biodiversity. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The present research was carried out in Keshkal Valley of Kondagaon district at Bastar region in Chhattisgarh state during the year 2016-17. Keshkal Valley is nearby destination in 129 km from Jagdalpur and 180 km from Raipur on National Highway No. 30. It is a beautiful spot and provides an amazing view of the green vegetation in and around the valley. The vegetation in the valley is a classic example of southern tropical dry deciduous forests (Champion & Seth 1968) with predominantly Tectona grandis and its associates like Anogeissis latifolia, Bombax ceiba, Boswellia serrata, Chloroxylon swietenia, Cleistanthus collinus, Diospyros melanoxylon, Haldinia cordifolia, Hardwickia binata, Mitragyna parviflora, Lannea coromandelica, Strychnos nux- vomica, Terminalia alata, Terminalia arjuna, etc. The climate is dry humid tropical consists three major season via, rain, winter and summer. The rainy season commences from about the middle of June. The winter season, which commences from the beginning of November, lasts till the end of February. The summer commences from the beginning of March. It is quite prolonged and severs and lasts till monsoon sets in. About 80% of the annual rainfall is coming from southwest monsoon during June to August and the highest amount of the rainfall occurring in month of July. Sandy loam, clay loam, silt loam, late rite and few areas covered by gravel soil. For the quantitative assessment of the study site, the Phytosociological parameters such as frequency, density, abundance, importance value index (IVI) and similarity index were calculated from the recorded observations during the study and using different formula for analysis as given by Mishra (1968). Raw data were collected during 2016-17 by laying random quadrates (10 m×10 m size for trees, and 1m ×1m for shrubs) in different sites of Keshkal Valley at Kondagaon district. A total of 487.674 km forest area was sampled and structural parameters like frequency, density and Abundance have been calculated by standard methodologies (Curtis and Mc Intosh, 1950). https://lifesciencesleaflets.petsd.org/ PEER-REVIEWED Page | 35 Life Sciences Leaflets FREE DOWNLOAD ISSN 2277-4297(Print) 0976–1098(Online) The following Phytosociological attributes were measured from each site during field data collection.

    his right hand Ajay Singh, and others like him are engaged in executing the work-plan issued from the office of the then IG MW Ansari. (It is thus only just, that Ajay Singh has since been wiped out for his heinous crimes against the tribals.) The Guardian has reported: “While the soldiers say villagers come seeking refuge from the violence, the tribals tell a different story. They claim that the camps are, in reality, prisons.The guards in Bhairamgarh camp brought out SALWA JUDUM captured Naxalite political agents, known as Sangam, for the Guardian to interview. Each told a story of state-backed terror. A mob of government supporters invaded their village backed by armed soldiers who opened fire on “Naxalite houses”. A battle ensued and the guerrillas, outgunned, fled. Once an area has been “cleansed”, the homes of those used by leftwing guerrillas are destroyed and “I was a Sangam. A People were getting shot and homes burnt every day. I had no choice but to come here,” said Buddram, who used to farm around Kotrapal. Clutching her baby to her chest, Jamli recounts how the Salva Judum ‘NEW FRONT’ militia kidnapped her and seven friends as they travelled to a market. “We were told we had to come to the police station. Once we reached OF there we were kept overnight and driven to this camp where we were told if you leave you will be killed,” she said. “I was alone until my husband arrived a week later and he is trapped here too. We are not ‘HIDDEN WAR’ Naxalites.

  • Hands in Chhattisgarh Rock Art
    Meenakshi Dubey-Pathak & Jean Clottes Hands in Chhattisgarh Rock Art Abstract The long persistence of ancient traditions in India, with the continuance of ritual prac- tices in painted shelters, including handprints, enables us to better understand some of the reasons that may have prompted the authors of handprints in the rock art of the region under study. Among the sixty-four rock art sites known in the State of Chhattisgarh (India), 750 hand- prints can be seen on their walls. In seven cases the hands are negative (stencils). Handprints may also be found in villages on the walls of houses. They are thought to establish a direct relationship between this world and the next. They are perceived by lo- cal people as a protection, not as a signature or a casual gesture. Footprints on rock art walls, occasionally associated with handprints, are more rare and have different mean- ings according to the places where they were made. If handprint representations are common the world over, in India, and particularly in the region under study, age-old traditions of handprint making are still alive in many places. In certain parts of the State, auspicious prints made on the walls at the house en- trance and sometimes on the wall inside the house represent the hands of Lakshmi, the Goddess of Wealth. Introduction In India, the tradition of hand printing for in deep jungles and forests, which cover various purposes has never stopped and over 44% of the surface of the State. We it is still very much alive. We shall concen- were guided and accompanied to the sites trate here on Chhattisgarh State in Central by local Forest officers and by tribal men India where we found many sites of hand- from the nearest villages.
