Tiger Population rises in India in 2014

By
Tiger population in India is estimated to be 2,226 in 2014, according to a new report released on Tuesday.

The big cat population in 2010 was an estimated 1,706. The number in the central Indian landscape had gone down four years ago.

"While the tiger population is falling in the world, it is rising in India. It is a great news," environment minister Prakash Javadekar said. 

"Never before such an exercise has been taken. We have unique photographs of 80% of tigers," he said, talking about the year-long survey the helped prepare the estimation report.

Javadekar also spoke about man-tiger conflicts, and said that human deaths have shown a decrease. He also said his ministry had started a special programme for taking care of orphan cubs.



Rajesh Gopal, member secretary of the National Tiger Conservation Authority, said the estimation drive was a massive exercise across India which showed improvement in tiger numbers in many states.

On the occasion, Javadekar conferred the best reserve award on Panna Tiger Reserve in Madhya Pradesh. Annamallai Tiger Reserve (Tamil Nadu) got the award for best communication and Periyar (Kerala) was rewarded for involving local communities. The Melghat reserve (Maharashtra) got award for smooth village relocation from tiger reserve.

India has been struggling to hold on to its last few hundreds of big cats left in the wild because of rampant poaching that feeds an illegal international trade, which supplies animal parts to the traditional Chinese medicine market, and also habitat loss, prey depletion and poor management of tiger reserves.


But conservation efforts have paid off, show the new figures. The species breeds quickly wherever there is adequate prey and good protection measures are in place.

Tiger population has been on an upswing since 2006 when it dipped to an alarming 1,411 from over 3,000 in early 2000, prompting the government to form a Tiger Task Force and tighten protection measures.

The increase between 2006 and 2010 didn’t reflect uniformly because only a handful of habitats -- such as Corbett National Park in Uttarakhand, Kaziranga National Park in Assam and some reserves in southern India -- supported a good population.

The comforting roar was missing from Madhya Pradesh, which was once an undisputed tiger haven. The country’s other popular tiger destinations, Rajasthan and Maharashtra, recorded a dip in numbers in some of their tiger reserves.

Not for long though, as latest trends suggest. 

“The decreasing trend has either reversed or stopped. There has not been a fall in tiger numbers in any landscape and most have witnessed some increase. Many tiger reserves show a stable population near to its optimal capacity, some are moving in that direction and only a few have shown a slight dip,” an official told HT earlier this month, describing Pilibhit in Uttar Pradesh and Bor in Maharashtra as habitats with some concern.

The country has five landscapes -- Shivalik-Gangetic Plains, Central India and Eastern Ghats, Western Ghats, North-Eastern India and Sunderbans -- for the tiger census that started in early 2013.

Besides the tiger headcount, the census provides useful data on other wildlife living alongside the big cats. Data is collected through camera trap, DNA tests and ground report from thousands of foresters scouring the wild.

The latest report could show a decline in tiger population outside its 47 protected areas the corridors connecting them are in a shambles. Less than 10% of the tiger population lives outside the protected zones -- not a small number to be wished away considering so much little are left in India.

Over the past several years, the government has sanctioned projects in some of the corridors despite initial resistance by the National Tiger Reserve Authority.

GA Study Notes On Cement Manufacturing

By
Manufacturing of Cement Cement is essential for construction activity such as building houses, factories, bridges, roads, airports, dams and for other commercial establishments.The first cement plant was set up in Chennai in 1904.It was discovered by an English Mason, Joseph Aspdin in 1824. He called it Portland cement because he thought that it resembled the limestone found in Portland. Approximate Composition of Portland cement Calcium oxide (CaO) 60-70% Silica (SiO 2 ) 20-25% Alumina (Al 2 O 3 ) 5-10% Ferric oxide (Fe 2 O 3  )         2-3% Raw materials are: Limestone -  (provides lime), Clay -  (provides alumina and silica), Gypsum - (reduces the setting time of cement). For a good quality cement, the ratio of silica (SiO) to alumina Al 2 O 3 ) should be between 2.5 and 4 and the ratio of lime (CaO) to the total of the oxides of silicon (SiO 2 ) aluminium (Al 2 O 3 ) and iron (Fe 2 O 3 ) should be as close as possible to 2. ...

छत को गर्म होने से बचाने का सबसे आसान तरीका क्या है?

By
छत को गर्म होने से बचाने के लिए उस पर चूने से पुताई कर दें। एक हजार स्क्वेयर फीट छत के लिए पांच किलो चूना(डले वाला) रात में गला दें। ध्यान रखें पानी डालते ही इस चूने से खूब गर्मी निकलती है कि पानी उबलने लगता है इसलिए सावधानी रखें। इसे रात भर गला रहने दें। सुबह जल्दी उठकर छत को अच्छे से साफ करें और चूने के घोल को छत पर डालकर झाड़ू से फैलाते जाएं। आप चाहें तो इस घोल में आधा किलो फेविकोल भी मिला सकते हैं। फेविकोल को अच्छे से घोलें और हर बार घोल को हिलाते हुए मग में लें। छत जितनी साफ होगी चूना जितना सफेदी लिये रहेगा छत उतनी ही ठंडी रहेगी। चूने की सफेदी छत पर पड़ने वाली सूर्य किरणों को परावर्तित कर देती हैं और छत ठंडी रहती है। आजमाया हुआ तरीका है पिछले बीस साल से कर रही हूँ Writer: Kavita Sharma

GA Study Notes On Electricity

By
Electric Circuit   A continuous and closed path of an electric current is called an electric circuit. Electric current is expressed by the amount of charge flowing through a particular area in unit time. Direction of Electric current Electric current was considered to be the flow of positive charges.Conventionally, in an electric circuit, the direction of electric current is taken as opposite to the direction of the flow of electrons, which are negative charges.If a net charge Q flows across any cross-section of a conductor in time t, then the current I, through the cross-section is:           I = Q/t The SI unit of electric charge is Coulomb (C).The SI unit of electric current is ampere (A). One ampere One ampere is constituted by the flow of one coulomb of charge per second. Ammeter   An instrument called ammeter measures electric current in a circuit. It is always connected in series in a circuit through which the current is to be measured...
