PROJECT BACKGROUND 1.1 Project / Programme Background and Context: a) Provide brief information on the problem the proposed project/programme is aiming solve Climate change is a global phenomenon and has varying impacts on each and every one of us. Significant climate shifts have already been observed 1 over the past century. The 1901 to 2007 period has seen a significant warming trend of 0.51ºC per 100 years in India's annual mean temperature. During the same period, India's maximum and minimum temperature increased at a rate of 0.71ºC and 0.27ºC per 100 years respectively. In rural areas of India, over 700 million are directly dependent on climate-sensitive sectors like agriculture, forests, fisheries and natural resources such 2 as water, fodder, and biodiversity for their livelihoods. Today uncertainties associated with climate variability pose great risks to the economic development all over the world. Regions in India like Bundelkhand has reasons to be concerned about climate change. Its large population depends upon climate-sensitive sectors like agriculture and forestry for its livelihood. Any adverse impact on water availability due to decrease in rainfall and increased flooding would threaten food security, pose risk to the natural ecosystems including species that sustain the livelihood of rural households, due to such increased extreme events. This aside, achievement of vital national development goals related to other systems such as habitats, health, energy demand and infrastructure investments would be adversely affected. The long-term nature of climate change and the significant impact it can have on forests and agricultural systems requires activities that incorporate climate change knowledge and understanding in order to adequately respond to the reality of a changing climate process referred to as climate change adaptation. This entails mainstreaming climate change adaptation in the current planning process in order to address the issues of growing vulnerabilities and livelihood security of poor and vulnerable communities. DPR NAFCC UP 1 The Bundelkhand region of the state given its fragile geophysical condition is significantly sensitive to climate change. Bundelkhand region comprising seven districts of Uttar Pradesh and six districts of Madhya Pradesh is one of the most backward regions of the country. Out of these seven districts of UP, four districts namely Hamirpur, Banda, Chitrakoot, Jalaun (Orai) are being considered for forest ecosystem based adaptation to climate change. Bundelkhand is a hard rock area with limited or inadequate ground water resources, lacks infrastructure and access to improved technologies. The region being largely rain fed is perturbed

Volume 6, Issue 6 (Jan. - Feb. 2013), PP 18-29 www.iosrjournals.org Demographic Challenges and Opportunities in the economically marginalized economy 1Ms.Shraddha Verma(Lecturer),2Ms Shobha Upadhyay(Lecturer), 3Ms Deepti Chadha(Lecturer) 1,3Lecturer(Department of BBA), Shri Ramswaroop Memorial College of Management, Lucknow 2Lecturer(Department of MBA), Shri Ramswaroop Memorial College of Management, Lucknow, Abstract: This paper discusses emerging demographic patterns and its opportunities and challenges for U.P. Demographic change in India is opening up new economic opportunities. As in many countries, declining infant and child mortality helped to flash lower fertility, effectively resulting in a temporary baby boom. Moreover, changes in population age structure have opened the door to increased prosperity. Uttar Pradesh is the most populous state in India with a population of 199,581,477 million people as of 1 March 2011. If it were a separate country, Uttar Pradesh would be the world's fifth most populous nation, next only to China. Population growth of Uttar Pradesh in 2011 is 20.09%, Sex Ratio is 908 in 2011. Economic and demographic factors reveal important and significant influences Demographics. It presents some opportunities that can arise from having demographic changes, particularly the demographic dividend and interstate migration to overcome labour shortage in some parts. At the same time, there are serious challenges in the form of enhancing human capital development, addressing the issue of tilted sex ratio, and the possible rise in social and political unrest and conflict. Economic growth itself will be correlated to the age structure of the population.

  • Cataract Backlog Free Zone Program –District Chitrakoot
    Cataract Backlog Free Zone Program –District Chitrakoot Introduction Restoring sight to blind is noble approach to reduce avoidable blindness across the globe. Blindness has been major public health concern in India. With 7.8 million blind people in India, the country accounts for 20 per cent of the 39 million blind population across the globe, of which 62 per cent are on account of cataract and 19.7 per cent refractive errors. With today’s knowledge and technology, up to 80 per cent of blindness globally is preventable or treatable. In India cataract is the major leading cause of avoidable blindness. Due to rural-urban disparity, lack of access to eye care services and lack of awareness the backlog of cataract cases are increasing day by day. Cataract Backlog Free Zone As per the Indian definition people with vision <6/60 in better eye can be termed as ‘blind’ people. People with cataract in both eyes (bilateral blind) with vision <6/60 can be termed as blind due to cataract. If we identify and operate all such bilateral cataracts in a defined geographical area we can term that area as Cataract Backlog Free Zone. Aim of the initiative: To make Chitrakoot District Cataract Backlog Free Zone. Objectives: To train Asha and Anganwadi workers in identifying cataract cases and referring them to nearest eye care center To identify, examine and operate all cataract cases in Chitrakoot District To create a successful model of eye care service delivery that can be replicated Profile of District: District Chitrakoot Population (Census 2011) in District Chitrakoot 990626 Prevalence + incidence of blindness in District Chitrakoot 16477 Estimated cataracts in District Chitrakoot 10121 Inception: Dr.B.K Jain, Director & Trustee, ShriSadguruSevaSangh Trust visualized the concept of Cataract Backlog Free Zone for Bundelkhand region in the year 2012.

  • Spatial Income Inequalities in India: an Inter-State and Intra- State Analysis
    Spatial Income Inequalities in India: An Inter-State and Intra- State Analysis S V Hanagodimath1 ABSTRACT: No country/state is an exception for the challenge of regional imbalances. In the recent years, in India, the problem of intra-state REGIONAL DISPARITY is more serious than the inter-state disparity. In the present study inter-state and intra-state disparities have been analysed for per capita state and district domestic products. This study is a unique of its kind, which traces the inter-state, intra-state and intra-division regional disparity for Indian states. The study found that inter-state disparity in per capita income has increased in India over the period of time. With respect to intra-state disparity no state is an exception for it. Quantum of imbalances differs, in some states it has become a serious challenge. States like Uttar Pradesh, Bihar and Himachal Pradesh have higher disparity. Whereas, states like Kerala, Punjab, Andhra Pradesh, Rajasthan and Jammu Kashmir have lower intra-state disparity. To measure the regional disparity more meaningfully and to suggest the proper policy, strong data base at different disaggregated level is the prerequisite. For this purpose, first of all, district (as well as taluk) domestic product should be calculated/estimated every year. At present, only some states like, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana calculate district domestic product every year. Hence, CSO should make proper guidelines and give appropriate training to the officials of Directorate of Economics and Statistics of all states. Thus, one can see the per capita income level of all the districts of the country and also these districts can be ranked.

S. Chauhan 2 1Research Scholar, Department of Geography, M.L.B. Government College of Excellence, (Jiwaji University) Gwalior, India Email: [email protected] 2Deputy Secretary, University Grants Commission, Central Regional Office, Bhopal, India Abstract: Water is one of the most important natural resources on the earth. At the same time, it is becoming a scarce resource in many parts of the world today including India where some parts are facing water scarcity while some other areas possess plethora of water resources. Bundelkhand region is one of the pertinent regions of the country happens to be particularly Mahoba district of this region which is currently facing the acute water crisis and severe shortage of water. This study explains the present condition of water resources and examines the causes of water crisis and water depletion problem by using primary and secondary data and found that increasing pressure of human and livestock population, deforestation, urbanization and industrialization, expansion in agriculture land, intensive agricultural and its allied activities, including rigorous mining and quarrying on large scale, domestic demands of water supply are some of the prime major factors for surface and ground water depletion. Key words : Water, Region, Management, Scarcity, Expansion. Introduction Unquestionably, water is one of the most important natural resources on mother earth. Water is increasingly becoming scarce resource in many parts of the globe including India.
