College, Bundu, Ranchi 835204, Jharkhand, India *Author for Correspondence ABSTRACT Jharkhand a land of forests and tribals with flora and fauna is in itself an interesting subject to be studied extensively. Recent revival of interest in documenting medicinal plants used by tribal is a centre of focus for different government institutions, NGOs and Science and Technology Department of Jharkhand- state Govt.

    ISSN (Online) - 2349-8846 Women’s Leadership in COVID-19 Response: Self-help Groups of the National Rural Livelihoods Mission Show the Way RUKMINI TANKHA Rukmini Tankha ([email protected]) is a consultant with the Initiative for What Works to Advance Women and Girls in the Economy (IWWAGE) at LEAD, Krea University. Vol. 56, Issue No. 19, 08 May, 2021 During COVID-19, it was recognised that the far-flung network of National Rural Livelihood Mission’s women’s self-help groups, spanning the length and breadth of the country, could be leveraged to ensure prevention and containment of the virus in rural areas. Women’s SHGs and their federated structures harbour tremendous potential because of the social capital and solidarity networks they possess. This article presents insights from a study and summarises good practices, strategies and innovations that were spearheaded by SHGs amidst the pandemic. Findings from the report provide early lessons from ground-level action taken and recommendations for strengthening women’s leadership to respond to crises. The world over the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and lockdown has not been gender- neutral (Gates 2020). Women have faced severe economic and health impacts, shouldered the disproportionate burden of unpaid work and remained more vulnerable to gender-based violence (UN 2020). Nevertheless, amidst the grim reality that the pandemic may reverse hard fought gains in women’s empowerment and gender equality, a beacon of hope and inspiration was provided by the unsung women who have been leading from the front in COVID-19 response. This has been best exemplified in rural India, where inspiring stories of ISSN (Online) - 2349-8846 resilience and innovation emerged of women’s self-help groups (SHGs) of the National Rural Livelihoods Mission (NRLM) supporting COVID-19 relief efforts.

No. 18/7/2020-PRP&P lgthFebruary, 2020 Dear Sir, As you are aware, one of the functions of the Commission under Section 12(d) of the Protection of Human Rights Act, 1993 is to review the safeguards provided by the Constitution or any law for the time being in force for the protection of human rights and to recommend measures for their effective implementation. As a part of these functions, Dr. Vinod Aggacwal, Special Rapporteur, NHRC visited Ranchi District of Jharkhand on 13~~ January, 2020 to study the implementation of the MGNREGA scheme and submitted a report. The report has been considered by the Commission. The important .,... recommendations.. of the Special Rapporteur alongwith the visit report are enclosed. The Commission has desired that the concerned authorities may be directed to examine these recommendations/observations and take necessary action. It may be added that the SC population in the district which is 5.2% of the total population is not being provided enough work. There is therefore, a need that an exercise to revisit the list of MG NREGA may be undertaken wherein participation of villagers/ marginalized farmers is ensured to identify the jobs to be provided. As part of the exercise, requirement of construction/ building of warehouses/ cold storages can be explored and thus adequate jobs to the SC/ ST and marginal/ landless farmers could be created under MG NREGA scheme.

    CIBTech Journal of Zoology ISSN: 2319–3883 (Online) Online International Journal Available at http://www.cibtech.org/cjz.htm 2020 Vol.9, pp.80-84/Kumari and Kumar Research Article (Open Access) STUDY OF INDIGENOUS WAY TO COMBAT RAT PROBLEM IN PANCH PARGANA AREA OF JHARKHAND 1Bandana Kumari and 2Sudhanshu Kumar* Department of Zoology, Ranchi Women's College, Ranchi, Jharkhand *Department of Botany, P.P.K. College, Bundu *Author for Correspondence: *[email protected] ABSTRACT Rat has always been a problem for agricultural fields. Farmers of Jharkhand are always troubled by these rodents who damage grains in fields and also in their godown. In Jharkhand the two most common rodents affecting the rice crops are Mus domesticussps. and Bandicota bengalensis. The cost of various chemicals to kill or repel rat is beyond the affordable limit of the poor tribal farmers in Jharkhand. Farmers of Panch-Pargana area of Jharkhand have indigenous practice to get rid of rats from their fields by the use of plants or plant parts. The aim of this communication is to study and disseminate the indigenous method of rat population management being practiced in the Panch-Pargana area. Keywords: Plants, Rat population management, Jharkhand, Tribes INTRODUCTION Panch Pargana area of Jharkhand is a blend of five regions and thus holds vivid cultural practices and traditional food habits. The five blocks which constitute the Panch Pargana area are Silli, Bundu, Sonahatu, Rahe and Tamar. The ethnic groups residing here are Mundas, Oraons, Santhals, Paharias and Kuarmies. Rice and millet are major staple food here. However, wheat and corn are also grown in some pockets now days.

  • Enhancement of Livelihood Activities Through Non-Timber Forest Products: a Study in Jharkhand’S Ranchi and Simdega Districts
    Jharkhand Journal of Development and Management Studies XISS, Ranchi, Vol. 14, No.1, March 2016, pp.6919-6930 ENHANCEMENT OF LIVELIHOOD ACTIVITIES THROUGH NON-TIMBER FOREST PRODUCTS: A STUDY IN JHARKHAND’S RANCHI AND SIMDEGA DISTRICTS Sudeep Kumar* & Ankita Choudhury** Non Timber Forest Produces (NTFPs) provide about 40 percent of total official forest revenues and 55 percent of forest-based employment in India and thereby act as a critical component for sustenance (Tewari & Campbell, 1995). Although Jharkhand is having a rich agricultural resource base its rural people still search for alternative livelihood opportunities. For smallholders, agriculture is passing through a difficult phase due to the increasing frequency of unseasonal and extreme weather events creating difficulties in managing risk, thereby leading to livelihood insecurity. NTFPs act as a subsidiary source of income for rural dwellers. This paper examines the collection, processing and marketing of NTFPs, and attempts to analyze the differences in rates obtained and the number of people involved in the NTFP business. Under the supervision of the first author, the second author undertook the empirical study in two of Jharkhand’s districts using standard quantitative and qualitative social research methods and techniques. The findings reveal that rural women actively participate in carrying out various NTFP practices, and that there is a need for more awareness generating interventions among the rural people. Various gaps/ problems have been identified to highlight potential remedial measures.
