We analyzed incidence to determine the occurrence of cases, investigate its causes, and recommend preventative measures for the control. Blood samples were collected from 1583 patients experiencing febrile illness clinically consistent with dengue infection. Serological confirmation of Dengue Infection was done using Dengue ELISA test which detected dengue-specific NS1 antigen, IgM antibody and IgG antibody. Out of 1583 suspected cases, 186 cases (11.75%) were confirmed as serologically positive.

    Carrying Capacity of Beaches of for Providing Shacks & Other Temporary Goa Seasonal Structures in Private Areas

    Carrying Capacity of Beaches of for Providing Shacks & Other Temporary Goa Seasonal Structures in Private Areas Submitted to Government of Goa Prepared by NATIONAL CENTRE FOR SUSTAINABLE COASTAL MANAGEMENT Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change Government of India Carrying Capacity of Beaches of Goa for Providing Shacks & Other Temporary Seasonal Structures in Private Areas Foreword India is forging ahead with a high development agenda, especially along the long coastline, which inadvertently causes adverse impacts on the environment. Most of these activities are unplanned, leading to an imbalance in ecological sustainability. It is evident that developmental activities need to be regulated and managed, so that deterioration of the environment can either be minimized or avoided. This can be achieved by estimating the carrying capacity of a system that enables better planning for development, concurrently safeguarding ecological and environmental and social concerns. The State of Goa is one of world‟s most renowned tourism destinations with several natural beaches along its 105 km coastline, with a tourist footfall of over 50,00,000 tourists per year. Despite such heavy human pressure on a limited coastal scape, the Government of Goa has attempted to maintain the integrity of its beaches by regulation and management measures. However, a more systematic and scientific approach, was necessary to protect the ecological and environmental resources and to ensure livelihood sustainability. Based on such principles, the present study on carrying capacity of beaches and the adjacent private areas was undertaken by National Centre for Sustainable Coastal Management, Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change. Carrying capacity was determined using several international and national best practices to determine the scenarios and indicators for the assessment.

About Us The Temple Garden is a sea side resort in 2 acres of lush green coconut garden and landscaped environs located at Palolem Beach Goa. The easiest way to get to Palolem is to take the train or fly to Margao (locally known as Madgaon) and pay for a Government approved fixed-price taxi to Palolem. Fixed-price taxis are available from the train station and from Goa Dabolim Airport (GOI) at Vasco da Gama. Alternatively, Canacona is Palolem's nearest train station, approximately 5 minutes drive away, but for shorter journeys from other parts of India it is almost always better to arrive by bus due to the remoteness of the train station from Palolem beach. Backpackers may also take a State Transport bus from Margao Bus Stand to Canacona or Palolem. It takes around 90 minutes. If you alight at Canacona bus station, you can take an auto rickshaw or taxi to Palolem Beach which is only about 3Km. The journey by bus is comfortable and the route is a scenic one too. However do keep in mind that local buses in Goa are not air-conditioned and at times quite dusty. It is possible to walk from the bus station to Palolem, but might not be the ideal option on a hot sunny day.

The Indian Left consisted of the Radical Humanists led by M. N. Roy, Indian Communists led by Shripad Amrit Dange and the Democratic Socialists led by Dr. Ram Manohar Lohia. All these leaders took part in the Indian freedom movement and spent a number of years in jail. They strongly appreciated the contribution made by Gandhi but had their own differences of opinions. M. N. Roy was a harsh critic of Gandhi and despite differences, Dr. Lohia was an ardent admirer of Gandhi. This unit discusses at length Gandhi’s relationship with the leaders of Left-wing ideology and how, inspite of differences, they shared the common goal of Indian independence. Aims and Objectives After reading this Unit, you would be able to understand: Gandhi’s relationship with the Leftist leaders The views of M.N.Roy, S.A.

  • Gandhiji and Lohia: an Intimate and Fruitful Relationship

    Gandhiji and Lohia: an Intimate and Fruitful Relationship

    Gandhiji and Lohia: An intimate and Fruitful Relationship Prem Singh I The relationship between M. K. Gandhi (1869-1948) and Ram Manohar Lohia (1910-1967) was unique in many ways. One can perceive this as equilibrium of opposites. When Lohia came in direct contact with Gandhiji, he was merely twenty- three years old where as Gandhiji, with his vast wealth of experience and ideas, was already sixty-four. First of all, it was a relationship between a believer (Ishwarwadi) and a non-believer {Anishwarwadi}. Lohia did not ever agree with Gandhiji's religious invocation, his prayers, his support of the Varna system and his views on celibacy etc. In his entire crusade, Gandhiji maintained cordial feelings towards his opponents, including the British, whereas Lohia usually adopted an aggressive posture towards his opponents, using intolerant and sharp language. Lohia used this kind of language even in his conversations with Gandhiji. Lohia was not in total agreement with all the Gandhian ideas on socio-political subjects. Thus, there was a contrast between them not just in terms of temperament but also in terms of ideas. Despite all this, an intimate relationship developed between them. Lohia's biographer Indumati Kelkar terms Gandhiji as the Manas Pita and Guru of Lohia. She also mentions that Lohia became an 'orphan' for the second time after Gandhiji's assassination. In fact, in his last few years Gandhiji came very close to the socialists, particularly to Lohia. Among the crowd of Gandhians, Lohia saw himself as a heretic. Scholars have called him an extension of Gandhiji. A little later we shall discuss Lohia's critique of Gandhiji's ideas and methods of intervention.
