Abstract:
River Narmada is the fifth largest westwards flowing river of India. Biodiversity protection and conservation is a national and international agenda and responsible for sustainable development of a region or a country and secondly Lepidoptera and Odonata are potential bio control agents of many invertebrates. Lepidoptera and Odonata assemblage along with river Narmada bank of Gwarighat region in Jabalpur has been investigated. A total of 41species have been distributed in two orders Odonata with 22 species and Lepidoptera with 19 species were sampled. Libellulidae with 9 species under order Odonata and Nymphalidae with 9 species under Lepidoptera are the most dominating families while others have fewer representatives. Mostly organisms were aggregated due to habitat specific nature and random distribution indicates availability of resource utilization to survive but, in the urban forest area, high anthropogenic disturbances were observed which creates high biotic pressure on forest. A detailed list of Odonata and Lepidoptera recorded from urban forest area is presented.

Abstract:
Water-borne diseases constitute one of the major public hazards in developing countries(WHO 1997), in India, more than 70 % of the epidemic are either water-borne or water related( Khera et.al.1996). The pathogens most frequently transmitted through water are those which cause infection of the intestinal tract namely Typhoid and Paratyphoid bacteria, Dysentery (Bacillary and amoebic) and Cholera bacteria and enteric virus. Among the micro-organisms 61% bacteria are water-borne pathogens. Samples of surface, ground and drinking water were collected from Jabalpur region. Surface water samples were collected from the river Narmada and Bargi reservoir. Ground and drinking water samples were collected from wells, Hand -pump and Municipal supply. Samples were collected in sterilized borosil glass bottles (Cap. 300ml). These samples were brought in ice bags where the temperature was maintained at 4oC to freeze the activity of microbes present in water. To assess the presence of water borne pathogens, indicator parameters viz. Heterotophic plate count(HPC), Total coliform count (TCC), Feacal coliform count (FCC), Feacal streptococci count(FSC), presence of pseudomonas and Aeromonas and Total count of yeast and mould were studies by standard methodologies recommended by American Public Health Association (APHA, 1995) and Bureau of Indian standards. In comparison to ground and drinking water (collected from well, hand pump and corporation water supply), the surface water (collected from Narmada and impounded water sample from upstream of Bargi Reservoir) showed higher numbers (i.e 2 to 10 times increase in all the indicator parameters). All indicator parameters indicate that there was a sharp decline between Mandla and Bargi Reservoir largely due to the dilution of the point load of sewage from Mandla (river Narmada) and absence of any point source sewage up to Bargi reservoir. All ground water and drinking water sample showed the presence of Coliforms,Faecal streptococci, Pseudomonas, Aeromonas, Yeast and Mould. However, except for some indicator microorganisms, most water samples were found to be contaminated with water-borne pathogens.

Abstract:
Significant gaps exist in water management strategies implemented in the sub-basin of Narmada River, the Veda River Basin. Hence, the main goal of this study is to predict water demand and supply, recharge and draft with the use of the Water Evaluation and Planning System (WEAP) Model. The study area is watershed of the Veda River located in the Nimar region of Madhya Pradesh, and Middle Narmada River sub-basin of India. In this study, the WEAP model is used as a decision support system for watershed management. The WEAP model uses water balance approach for the generation of results, based on that 4 types of scenarios have been developed are high population growth, high industrial growth, rainwater harvesting, and water storage structures for future trends. The unmet water demands were simulated in all administrative blocks, catchments, and industries which amounting to 9.58´108 m3 in 2011 and 9.65´108 m3 in 2030. Results suggested that the addition of water storage structures as well as artificial groundwater recharge structures reduce the unmet water demand for domestic consumption and meet irrigation water requirements.

Abstract:
Droughts exert severe impacts on the environment, economy, and society. The south Asian region is vulnerable to droughts and the Indian sub-continent is one of the most vulnerable in the region to frequent drought disasters. This study assesses the agricultural droughts in the Narmada River Basin (NRB), India, where more than 50% of the area is utilized for agriculture, through freely available local and global remote-sensing-based data focusing on long-term rainfall trends (1989–2018) and recently weakened monsoons in 2017 and 2018. In this study, some of the widely used indices to characterize droughts (viz., Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI), simplified Rainfall Index (RIs), Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI)), soil moisture content, and reservoir surface areas were used to assess the drought conditions in the Narmada River Basin over the study period. Our analysis shows that the NRB has experienced a decreasing trend in monsoon rainfall over the past three decades. The SPI captured most of the basin’s historical droughts. The weakened monsoons during 2017–2018 show that different parts of the NRB have experienced severe or moderate drought conditions. A clear difference does not show in the NDVI and in the soil moisture contents of the basin over three hydrological years (2015/16, 2016/17, and 2017/18), except for July to September 2017/18. The estimated water area depletion using the Normalized Difference Water Index (NDWI) follows the actual water levels in three selected reservoirs in the basin, of which, two show a decline in the maximum surface area, likely due to the weakened monsoons in 2017 and 2018. This research indicates that the freely available data can be beneficial for local authorities to monitor and understand the drought conditions to support water resources management and planning for agricultural activities.

Abstract:
West Nimaris the South Western region of Madhya Pradesh state in West Central India. The region lies south of the Vindhya Ranges and consists of two portions of the Narmada and Tapti river valleys separated by a section of the Satpurarange. Bhil, Bhilala, Gond, Nayika and Tadwi are dominant tribe of the region. They are dependent on plant based medium and other for recovery of their ailment. The purpose of these studies was to gather ethnoveterinary medicinal knowledge from the area's livestock owners. Traditional healers gathered data on ethnoveterinary medicines through verbal and informal interviews, followed by a well-structured questionnaire. The majority of plants are dicotyledons, with monocotyledons accounting for a small percentage of the total. The leaves are used the most, followed by roots, rhizome, stem, gum, whole plant, and fruits. In the treatment, dermal approaches are used. In many circumstances, plant products, such as sindoor (vermillion), and cow urine, are utilised to treat horn cancer or fractured horn

Abstract:
In view of the vital significance of water resources and issues emerging from their temporal and spatial distribution and utilization posing serious problems to the land resources and to the society United Nations has identified sustainable management of water resources (SDG 6) as one of the seventeen major Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In this perspective, the purpose of the study is to identify the groundwater potential zones in the hard rock terrain of Betul-Chhindwara Region, Madhya Pradesh, India, using AHP technique. The study area comprises the sub-watersheds of Tawa river (Narmada basin), Tapi river (Tapi basin), Kanhan and Pench rivers (Godavari basin). Various thematic layers such as geomorphology, geology, physiography, rainfall, soil, slope, lineament, drainage density, groundwater depth, and land use/ land cover were developed. The analytical hierarchy process helps to delineate groundwater prospect zones, which are categorized into five classes, i.e. very poor, poor, moderate, good, and very good based on objective, criteria, and preference. The good, moderate, and poor groundwater potential zones cover 4815 sq. km., 6423 sq. km, and 4857 sq. km, respectively, comprising 22.46%, 29.96%, and 22.65% of the entire region under study. The result indicates that 15.22% of the area comprising 3262.10 sq. km have very good groundwater potential whereas 9.71% (2080 sq. km) has very poor groundwater potential. The obtained result has been verified through field check based on the yield data collected from 16 bore wells in the study area. The accuracy of the results was 75% that proves the efficiency of the adopted techniques. Thus, this study will be efficient for the sustainable development and management of groundwater in the study area.

Abstract:
Human-Crocodile conflict (HCC) occurs to varying degrees around the World, and with a number of crocodilian species (CrocBITE 2013). The Mugger or Marsh Crocodile Crocodylus palustris found in Gujarat State is the crocodilian species responsible for conflict with local people. This paper is a compilation of HCC occurring in various parts of Gujarat from 1960 to 2013. A total of 64 crocodile attacks were recorded: 44 (24 fatal & 20 non-fatal) on males, and 20 (9 fatal & 11 non-fatal) on females. By region 52 HCC were recorded in central Gujarat; five in Saurashtra, four in the northern region and three in Kutch; no crocodile attacks were recorded in southern Gujarat. Of the two major river systems in central Gujarat, 41 attacks occurred within the Vishwamitri-Dhadhar River System and 11 in the Narmada system. Most crocodile attacks happened between the months of April and September, peaking in May with 14 attacks. These months are the peak breeding season for the species in Gujarat. The most obvious contributors to HCC are lack of basic facilities in rural areas, poverty, illiteracy and the presence of adult animals close to human settlements and activities. Other contributing factors are lack of preventive measures by the forest department, absence of protocols for mugger crocodile rescue, and haphazard release of problematic animals.

"Resource Management Domains of Kharif and Rabi Season Fallows in Central Plateau Region of India: A Strategy for Accelerated Agricultural Development."

Abstract:
Over last few decades, acreage of total fallow lands (Kharif and Rabi seasons) in India has remained almost unchanged around 25Mha. The acreage of Kharif (summer) and Rabi (winter) Fallows in Madhya Pradesh (MP) are 1.98Mha and 5.51Mha, respectively. In the semi-arid agroclimatic zones of the states, Fallow-Wheat/Gram/Indian-Mustard cropping systems are practiced. After harvest of Kharif rice, kodo-kutki, maize or sorghum, farmers generally practice post-rainy season Rabi fallows in the sub-humid regions, south of Narmada River. Kharif fallowing is largely the result of the inability of the farmers to make planting dates independent of monsoon forecasts, and make efficient use of rain water. It appears that factors responsible for Kharif and Rabi fallows are distinctly different and a general consequence of distinctly different soil moisture regimes prevailing in the two crop seasons. Kharif and Rabi fallows have two distinct resource management domains. Whereas, Kharif fallows can be tackled with “PMP-dry seeding” agronomy, production constraints of Rabi fallows can be substantively tackled by shifting from tilled to zero-till agriculture with residue management to make efficient use of the conserved rain water. Some irrigation support will prove useful to tackle mid-season droughts in both situations. Conservation agricultural practices can significantly improve and stabilize crop yields in black soils and other associated soils of in the semi-arid tropics region of the Central India.

Abstract:
This essay traces the story of the Narmada River and its transformation from a sacred landscape to one of the largest mechanized territorial systems in the world. The Narmadatravelssome 1,300 kilometers from Amarkantaktothe Arabian Sea; enabling the livelihood of millions, shaping distinct regional identities and embodying a rich cultural imaginary for those worshiping her holy waters. The infrastructural potential of the river was first formulated as a megaregional project in the 1940s to modernize and bring prosperity to the watershed. Under implementation since the 1980s, the “Narmada Valley Development Project” is incrementally transforming the river into an interstate infrastructural network of water conveyance and energy generation. Through a cartographic and photographic inventory, the project traces the transformation of the natural and cultural systems associated with the Narmada River over time. Pausing at Omkareshwar, a major pilgrimage destination, the essay unfolds the current state of uncertainty and civic unrest that the massive infrastructural works are placing in the fragile lives of the valley dwellers.
