A. \NDz~ ......~"tl~ -- 3 \. ~ug.\983 KARNATAK PUBLISHING HOUSE BOMBAY ( INDIA) ;SOME NOTES ON THE HISTORY OF THE FIG (FICUS . CARICA) FROM FOREIGN AND INDIAN SOURCES By P. K. GODE, Poona. According to the history of the Fig (Ficus:Carica) recorded in the Ency­ r:lopoodiaBritannica,1 it was probably one of the earliest objects of cultivation. , There are frequent allusions to it in the Hebrew Scriptures. According to ; Herodotus it may have been unknown to the Persians in the days of the First Cyrus. Pliny mentions varieties of figs ani::11the plant played an im­ ..portant part in Latin myths. This history of the fig testifies to the high value • set upon the fruit by' the nations of antiquity but it says nothing about its · early existence in India or its importation to the Indian provinces known to the Greeks and Romans. According to Dr. AITCHISONIZ the Fig orFicus Carica was " probably a of Afghanistan and Persia "3 and it is indigenom; in the Badghis 1. Vide p. 228 of Vol. IX of the Fourteenth Edn. 1920. 11 From !he ease with which the nutritious fruit can be preserved it was probably one of the earliest · objects of cultivation ...... antiquity." I may note here the points in the para ,, noted above:- ( 1) Fig must have spread in remote ages over Agean and Levant ; (2) May have been unknown to Persians in the days of the First Cyrus according to a passage in Herodotus ; (3) Greeks received it from Caria (hence the name Ficus Carica) ; ( 4) Fig, the chief article of sustenance for the Greeks-laws to regulate their exportation-Attic Figs celebrated throughout the East-improved under Helenic Culture ; .

While Nadia has performed in Portugal in the past and has already established a career in Goa as a Fadista; this trip, which was meant to be for an academic purpose, ended up being a fantastic musical journey full of inspiration and rich experiences. Nadia had recently gone to Portugal to do a Portuguese language course at the University of Aveiro. I was told that I have a Portuguese soul with an exotic feel. It may be recalled Nadia had performed alongside the renowned Portuguese fadista "Marco Rodrigues and the famous Portuguese Fadista, Claudia Duarte, at their respective concerts held in Goa in the past.

  • Ground Water Information Booklet North Goa District, Goa State
    GOVERNMENT OF INDIA MINISTRY OF WATER RESOURCES CENTRAL GROUND WATER BOARD GROUND WATER INFORMATION BOOKLET NORTH GOA DISTRICT, GOA STATE SOUTH WESTERN REGION BENGALURU MARCH 2013 I Foreword The State of Goa is covered by rocks of Dharwar Super group with a small patch of Deccan basalts overlain by quaternary alluvium. Ground water occurs under unconfined and semi- confined conditions in these formations with spatial variability depending on the hydrogeological environment existing in each region. Scientific management of water resources is the need of the hour in the face of rising groundwater exploitation and pollution in the State of Goa. Central Ground Water Board has carried out various hydrogeological investigations in the State and joint studies on the water resources of Goa with the water resources department of Goa. The data generated from such studies could be effectively used in the preparation of this brochure. Central Ground Water Board is providing all technical input for effective management of ground water resources in the state. The groundwater scenario compiled on administrative divisions gives a better perspective for planning various ground water management measures by local administrative bodies. With this objective, Central Ground Water Board is publishing the revised groundwater information booklet for all the districts of the state. I do appreciate the efforts of Dr. K.Md.Najeeb, Regional Director and his fleet of dedicated Scientists of South Western Region, Bangalore and the Unit office at Belgaum for bringing out this booklet. I am sure these brochures will provide a portrait of the groundwater resources in each district for planning effective management measures by the administrators, planners and the stake holders.

  • Title Title Daily Current Affairs Capsule 19Th December 2020
    Title Daily Current Affairs Capsule 19th DecemberTitle 2020 Pakistan approves chemical castration of sex offenders Pakistan has approved the chemical castration of rapists as part of sweeping new legislation sparked by outcry over the gang rape of a mother on a motorway. New laws approved by President Arif Alvi will see rape cases expedited through the courts and create the country’s first national sex offenders register. Pakistan is a deeply conservative and patriarchal nation where victims of sexual abuse often are too afraid to speak out, or where criminal complaints are frequently not investigated seriously. In September, protests erupted after a mother was raped on the side of the road in front of her children when her car broke down near Lahore. Goa Liberation Day 2020: 19 December Goa Liberation Day is observed on December 19 every year in India and it marks the day Indian armed forces freed Goa in 1961 following 450 years of Portuguese rule. The Portuguese colonised several parts of India in 1510 but by the end of the 19th-century Portuguese colonies in India were limited to Goa, Daman, Diu, Dadra, Nagar Haveli and Anjediva Island. The Goa liberation movement, which sought to end Portuguese colonial rule in Goa, started off with small scale revolts. The 36-hour military operation, conducted from December 18, 1961, was code-named ‘Operation Vijay’ meaning ‘Operation Victory,’ and involved attacks by the Indian Navy, Indian Air Force and Indian Army.

It also describes the action plan for the control of pollution as per CPCB and GSPCB guidelines. 4.1 Identification of Impacts The environmental impacts can be categorized as either primary or secondary. Primary impacts are those, which are attributed directly to the project and secondary impacts are those, which are indirectly induced and typically include the associated investment and changed pattern of social and economic activities by the proposed action. The construction and operation of the proposed ductile iron pipe manufacturing plant comprises various activities each of which may have an impact on some or other environmental parameters. Various impacts during the construction and operation phase on the environment parameters have been studied to estimate the impact on the environment and are discussed in the subsequent sections. 4.2 Impacts during Construction Phase The proposed project includes activities related to leveling of site, construction and erection of main plant structures and installation of equipment. 4.2.1 Land Use and Soil Quality The land requirement for DI pipe project will be about 20 acres (8.093 ha) within the existing pig iron plant premises.

  • Goa Liberation Day
    Goa Liberation Day drishtiias.com/printpdf/goa-liberation-day-1 Why in News The Prime Minister of India greeted the people of Goa on Goa Liberation Day, which falls on 19th December every year. Key Points The day marks the occasion when the Indian armed forces freed Goa in 1961 from 450 years of Portuguese rule. The Portuguese colonised several parts of India in 1510 but by the end of the 19th-century Portuguese colonies in India were limited to Goa, Daman, Diu, Dadra, Nagar Haveli and Anjediva Island (a part of Goa). As India gained independence on 15th August, 1947, it requested the Portuguese to cede their territories but they refused. The Goa liberation movement started off with small scale revolts, but reached its peak between 1940 to 1960. In 1961, after the failure of diplomatic efforts with Portuguese, the Indian Government launched Operation Vijay and annexed Daman and Diu and Goa with the Indian mainland on 19th December. On 30th May 1987, the territory was split and Goa was formed. Daman and Diu remained a Union Territory. Hence, 30th May is celebrated as the Statehood Day of Goa. Goa 1/3 2/3 It is located on the southwestern coast of India within the region known as the Konkan, and geographically separated from the Deccan highlands by the Western Ghats. Capital: Panji.
