  • Spatio - Temporal Analysis of Population Growth in the District Headquarters of Rajasthan
    ISSN: 2319-8753 International Journal of Innovative Research in Science, Engineering and Technology (An ISO 3297: 2007 Certified Organization) Vol. 3, Issue 12, December 2014 Spatio - Temporal Analysis of Population Growth in the District Headquarters of Rajasthan Divya Shukla1, Rajesh Kr Dubey2 Assistant Professor, Home Nursing, St. John Ambulance Association, Ayodhya, U.P, India.1 Director, Prakriti Educational & Research Institute, Lucknow, UP, India.2 ABSTRACT: The rapid population growth results to economic difficulties, problems for resource mobilization, economic instability, increased unemployment, mounting external indebtness and finally low rate of progress. People were well aware about the importance of population studies from very ancient period. Explosively growing population has attracted the attention of social scientists and policy makers. For country like India, it is very important to study the decadal variation of population growth it helps in realizing problems. The population growth and socio economic changes are closely related to each other. In present study, Rajasthan has been chosen as study area. This state is the biggest state of our country having challenges of desert and desertification. In this state the distribution of population is irregular due to harsh physical condition. The aim of the present paper is to investigate the change in population growth rate in the District Head Quarters (DHQs) of Rajasthan during the three decades 1981-91, 1991-2001 and 2001-11. The present study is based on city/town level data obtained from the Directorate of Census Operations, Jaipur; Rajasthan. The data are concerned to the census 1981, 1991, 2001 and 2011. Due to push- pull factors, the rural urban migration is causing the process of urbanization.

MINERALS FEBRUARY 1970 GOVERNMEN1'-UF R.J.JASM~ DEPARTMENT OF MINES AND GEOLOGY RAJASTHAN'S MINERALS FEBRUARY 1970 RAJASTHAN'S MINERALS Amongst the natural resources minerals by far enjoy a very important position because they are wasting asset compared to the . agricultural and forest . resources where if any mistakes have been committed at any time they can be rectified and resources position improved through manual effort. In case of minerals man has only his ingenuity to depend on in the search and so that exploitation of rock material which will give him the desired metals and· other chemicals made from minerals. He cannot grow them or ever create them but has· only to fulfil his requirements through the arduous trek from rich conce: ntrations of minerals to leaner ones as they become fewer and exhausted.· His. technical ingenuity is constantly put to a challenge in bringing more' dispsered metals to economic production. He has always to . be ca.refui that the deposit is not spoiled in winning the. mineral by ariy chance. Any damage done to a deposit cannot easily be rectified. · · · The position of minerals in the State of Rajastha~ all tbe more becomes very important for its economy because the agricultural and forest ~:esources are meagre and only a small portion of the States area is under cultivation. Not more than 20 years ago the potentiality of minerals in the· State was not so well known and one co.uld hardly say whether minerals would be able to play any important part in the economic development of the State.

There has been limited scientific information available on the distribution of small canids like Desert Fox (Vulpes vulpes pusilla). A long- term survey and study was conducted in Thar Desert of Rajasthan (India) to know its present distribution. Visual encounter, den sightings, road accidents and secondary source of information from literature as well as through personal interactions with locals, forest officials and scientific community, distribution map has been prepared. The results based upon direct sightings, dens, secondary information and road kills revealed that desert fox was present mostly in western Rajasthan, whereas small population also found outside desert region. IndexTerms – Desert Fox, distribution, Thar desert, Rajasthan, transects. I. INTRODUCTION The Red foxes (Vulpes vulpes) are one of the most widely distributed carnivore in the world that makes their status as Least Concern (IUCN Red Data List) (Sharma and Sharma, 2013). However, Desert fox Vulpes vulpes pusilla (Order Carnivora, Family Canidae), also known as White-footed fox, is a sub-species of the red fox whose large population is largely restricted to Thar Desert landscape of India, Pakistan and Iran (Figure 1). In India, this animal is reported from various pockets of Western Rajasthan (Rajasthan) and Little Rann of Kutchchh (Gujarat) (Dookia and Wilson, 2016).

Technology/Application method (research methodology): For data, we use other application of archaeology including GIS application/aerial view (remote-sensing method) and photographic view of the landscape of mountains which naturally protected site of the fortress. And even surveyed too many areas here to understand its geomorphology related to stones which were part of building these structures. Powerful technological applications, like tracing the geo-coordinate location of structures and ruins. Other techniques like plain table survey method include contour of the area to know its higher-point, elevation and even height of the area above sea-level.
