Also Available at: 1- 2- 3- 4- Printed at:———————————————————————————————————————— ——————————————————————————————————————————— ii UTTARAKHAND : Need for a Comprehensive Eco-Strategy ■ Introductory Preface The present venture is an humble attempt by the editors of the work to make the entire region of Uttarakhand known to those interested in respect of all that one wants to know about it. Then only one can think in terms of its eco- development or establishing eco-development in the newly formed State. To evolve a strategy for achieving these objectives, one has to understand the geographical profile and historical perspective of the region, understand its milieu and ethos of its people as well, its cultural background, fairs and festivals, language, folk songs and dances, its resources, simple technologies for capacity building of women there, vocational education, entrepreneurship, problems and needs of the local population, health status of the people, movements launched by the people from time to time and scores of things to determine the right mode of development. Part ‘A’ of the book deals with Uttarakhand–ID, Part ‘B’ talks of various challenges before the emerging State of Uttarakhand, economic scenariao and viability and Part ‘C’ deals with searching a role model of intelligent industrialisation of the State, finding out the main resources and their utilisation for the development of the State and Administrative and Management problems as also the strategy and approach to realize the objectives for the State.

This delightful place was the prosperous capital by the Chand Dynusty. The region was previously under the sovereignty of the Katyuri King.

Almora is a primary center for trade and other activities- social, cultural, political and is a district place of Uttarakhand State in India. The region of Kumaun hills is rich in folklore and the folktoles Ajua-Bafaul, Narsingh and Ghana and the mythical toles of Haru-sem Golu, Kalsem are Anchari are Prominent. Many of these in the form of lallads are sung in diverse melodies and Nyoli, Bhagnaula, chapel and jhorro belong to this group. This folk song of this region make a poetic description of the glory of the Himaliyan Region. The Study has revealed that there are various cultural activities witch take place regularly in the society and the same is being preserved the people of Almora.But it seems that the post modern generation has been including themselves in the stream of modernity and science and Technology. Keywords: Girls perception,culture,tradition Introduction History of Almora can be traced back to ancient times of Mahabharata. However, the earliest historical account of the place is provided by a Chinese pilgrim of seventh century. The pilgrim wrote in great detail about a kingdom called „Brahmaputra‟.
