LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Besides the technical and
communication skills, there is also a lack of ethics
among the labor force.
Vipin Aggarwal, Business Development, Rivigo
We classify the labourers as: unskilled,
semi-skilled and skilled. We train and skill according
to these levels and requirements. At present there is
no policy to hire certified labourers only.
Nishin Ninan, DGM Operations, Mahindra Logistics
We prefer outsourcing our contractual
labor needs to third party logistics vendors. We
provide specific on-the-job training mostly tech
related for 2-3 weeks
Nitesh, Production Manager, Amazon
Current logistics workforce at our
plant lacks decision making and problem solving
skills on the shop floor and require continuous
supervision
Umesh, Manager, Lalji Mulji, Vapi
We train our supervisors and laborers
about inventory classifications (A, B and C) and
stock verification process.
• Laborers: Picking, Storing, Dispatching and how
to operate MHE in the most efficient way
• Supervisors: SAP and other software/tools.
Ritesh Kumar, Manager, Alstom
• Govt. schemes like PMKVY,
DDUKVY etc. are aimed at
imparting free training
• Company concerns: Even after
skilling, the employability is
low and attrition rate is high
• Labor concerns: Job security,
migration, wages
• Govt. can provide funds for
training and certification
approvals
• Regions are very fragmented.
Even in Maharashtra, there is
disparity among towns and
villages in terms of skills.

Minister of Labour,

9. Research – Key Takeaways
High skill gap
Higher skill gap for cold chain and warehouse management operations
for roles i.e. Operators, supervisors, drivers, technicians, etc
Increased technology focus
Requirement for On-the-job training includes software and equipment
handling, etc
Outsourcing nature of Industry
Labour esp. unskilled is mostly contractual and outsourced to agencies.
Companies want to focus on core business and prefer to hire and fire
Lack of Standardised Industry Programs
Certified and industry vertical-aligned course is need of the hour
Lack of proper communication
Key requirements by companies not properly communicated to
skilling/training institutes. This lead to high attrition and low
employability
Lack of Industry wide Council
No central guiding/governing body for the logistics industry that can
frame policy, align requirements, design curricula. Fragmentation leads
to lower wages for labour, higher cost for logistics companies
No practical training in current programs
Most of the current programs conducted under Logistics Skill Council
lack hands-on practical training
Labour Concerns
Low wages, frequent migration and job shifts/rotation, lack of empathy
are some of the common concerns across various roles in the industry.
