This document discusses population projection methods for Surat city and surrounding areas in India. It analyzed population data from the past several censuses at the constituency level, which includes 102 wards in Surat Municipal Corporation and 95 surrounding villages. Five different mathematical methods were used to project the population for 2021, 2031, and 2041. The Ratio and Correlation Method (RCM) was found to provide projections that were centered among the other methods. This method grouped constituencies based on growth rates and densities and applied restrictions. The document recommends using the RCM to project Surat's future population given its consideration of local development factors influencing population changes.
Building spatial database for cuttack municipal corporation a geospatial tech...eSAT Journals
Abstract
Decentralized governance necessitates participatory approach which is crucial for realizing sustainable development. Accordingly,
the concerned government as well as non-government agencies assume responsibility to plan, execute, manage and monitor social
welfare schemes in a coordinated manner. This in turn, relies on integrated information in the form of database which plays a vital
role in the process of decision making. Despite significant improvements made in the field of database creation and management,
problems of availability and organization of accurate data in the country continue to persist. In this context, the present study is taken
up for building a reliable and accurate geo-database for Cuttack Municipal Corporation, Odisha. The database thus created will
enable information flow for planning and monitoring of various government schemes. The study involves acquisition and integration
of spatial and non-spatial data derived from multiple sources. More often than not, data from these sources suffer from various types
of errors embedded in it. Lack of availability of cutting edge technologies within government enterprises as well as absence of
appropriate manpower with specialized expertise are the underlying reasons of errors in existing databases of Cuttack Municipal
Corporation. The present study proposes a methodological framework towards removal of these errors in spatial information. The
study is based on geospatial technologies of Remote Sensing, Geographic Information System and Global Positioning System in
generating a desired accurate and common geo-database for planning and implementation of social welfare schemes. While Global
Positioning System and Remote Sensing imageries can help enhance the positional accuracies of spatial entities, data management,
analysis and visualization capabilities of Geographic Information System can help build the standard geo-database which can be
shared by policy makers for better implementation of the schemes.

Urban Form and Land use Transformations in the High Mountain Town of Martadi ...Premier Publishers
Martadi, a small high mountain town has been transforming into a semi-urban position in recent years. This paper examines the form and land-use transformations by analyzing existing conditions and their potential expansion by collecting primary and secondary data through field observation and consultations/interactions with locals and analyzing the historical images/maps of the area. This paper shows that the high mountain town grew spatially and functionally outward from its core area transforming its morphology. Increasing population, increasing constructional activities, and infrastructure development in pace with urbanization are the reasons to get the transformations of such towns. With increasing local and regional connectivity, increasing trend of new building construction and reshaping of traditional buildings into modern ones, the rapid outward expansion of the town, increasing road networks and other facilities may lead to urban transformation of such high mountain towns in the future. Several modern constructions have been observed and Martadi is becoming one of the centers of economic activities in the region. Rapid conversion of agriculture, barren, and bushland into residential and the construction of infrastructure found high to make the urban transformation. The town can grow further in the future through intervention planning policies and guidelines.

Strategic Planning of Water System Projects in AlexandriaIJERA Editor
Alexandria is one of the major cities on the Mediterranean Sea. Over the past 40 years, Alexandria‟s population has doubled. Therefore Water requirements are continuously increasing due to population increase. This paper develops a framework to support decision-makers in water sector for planning major projects in Alexandria till 2037. Firstly, data gathering has been conducted and population forecasting is calculated by arithmetic and geometric methods then the future water demands are calculated, after that major projects outline is proposed. Finally the projects priorities will be determined by applying two methods of solving Multiple Criteria Decision Making MCDM problems. The first method is The Weighted Scoring Method; WSM is a powerful and flexible method of comparing similar items against a standard, prioritized list of requirements or criteria. The second method is Analytical Hierarchy Process. AHP is based on comparative evaluation method. Then Results will be analyzed. First, it was focused on the difference of the criteria weight of alternatives between the two methods. Second, it was compared the preference orders of alternatives between them, there were not much of differences in the final results. The results offered some evidence that AHP makes the selection process very transparent.

Using Granger Causality to Examine the Relationship Between Economic Growth a...inventionjournals
This study refers to Okun's Law on the economy in North Sumatera Province. Difference with previous studies, in this study the data used is not aggregate data but the data of each economic sector. In addition, the unemployment variable is proxy with the absorption of labor rate. The data analysis was tested by Granger Causality to determine the direction of the relationship between variables for growth of each economic sectors and absorption of labor. By using the Granger Causality Test analysis we concluded that the agricultural sector has a two-way direction relationship between economic growth and absorption of labor. Mining and Quarrying sector, construction sector, transport and communication sector and services sector only have one-way direction relationship from absorption of labor to economic growth. Electricity, gas and water supply have one-way direction relationship from economic growth to absorption of labor. Three other sectors are sectors manufacturing industry sector; trade, hotel and restaurant sector and finance, real estate and business service have no relationship at all between economic growth and absorption of labor.
Planning bodies in indian system of governanceOmkar Parishwad
The dynamic growth of Indian cities demands a robust administrative base. This hierarchy, of thusly evolved planning authorities aimed at decentralizing spatial and socio-economic planning, and was toned by the constitutional support and status by the 74th Amendment. Yet, this evolution of local government administration in India, is slow in adjusting itself to the current growth and change, and seems antiquated and ineffective. Proliferation of local bodies having little or no coordination/co-operation, and with overlapping jurisdictions, powers and functions has further eroded their effectiveness. This research paper aims at a thorough evaluation of this accusation, considering the case study of the planning authorities in Nagpur, India; by identifying and comparing their roles, functions and responsibilities as they impact the growth and development of the region.
Firstly, a clear picture of the present framework and working environment of various jurisdictions and governing bodies of various Indian governance systems, particularly Nagpur Metropolitan area (NMA) is presented; which dissects- overlaps and gaps in the system, and hindrances to the forward planning. This corroboration is with regards the different agencies for NMA, which have different levels of development rights.
Quantitative analysis based on the citizen surveys and expert interviews from different authorities were conducted, for canvassing the role of these authorities particular to the development in Nagpur metropolitan area. The paper also proffers some analysis on the basis of Analytical Hierarchy Process (APH) software and recommendations for planning authorities.
The research concludes how smooth administration can be achieved for these planning authorities, by listing out the lacunas in overall system, deliberating on results from the analysis. Lastly, recommendations on the basis of this study are founded for promoting the socio-economic change necessary for the town, resulting in the upliftment and avoiding an unplanned and non-coordinated development of Metropolitan areas, in Indian systems of Governance.

Analysis of urban growth pattern and socioeconomic aspect after the tsunami d...eSAT Journals
Abstract Knowing the character of urban growth, especially the city which has been hit by tsunami, is an important issue in urban planning. This article reports the initial finding of the character of urban growth after tsunami disaster viewed from several aspects such as growth pattern, population, and urban economic development. This study employed descriptive analysis method based on the data obtained from the Central Bureau of Statistics and the satellite images of 2005 and 2009. The result of analysis showed that the urban growth after the tsunami lasted in infill and expansion basis. The population growth was not yet balanced with the growth of built-up area. The growth was influenced by population growth and economic development, even though it was not yet encouraging in reducing the rate of poverty. The growth of built-up area should be well controlled so that it has sufficient green space and cultural conservation areas to support sustainable development. Key words: urban growth, population, socioeconomic, tsunami, Banda Aceh.

In general, urban accessibility shows the ease of reaching destinations and the
interaction between the land-use and transportation systems. Integrating transport
and land-use mix is one of the goals of planning policies around the world. In this
paper, an attempt is made to assess the urban accessibility through commuters’ travel
behavior for shopping trip only. The effects of trip characteristics like trip length, trip
time and trip cost and socio-economic characteristics like gender, age, income,
occupation and vehicle ownership on travel behavior and mode choice are studied for
shopping trips for different mixed land use zones (wards) of Vadodara city. Urban
accessibility Index is prepared for different neighborhoods. It is found that the change
in the land-use mix affects the commuters' travel behaviour and mode choice selection

BROAD UNEXPOSED SKILLS OF TRANSGENDER ENTREPRENEURSIAEME Publication
Since ages gender difference is always a debatable theme whether caused by nature, evolution or environment. The birth of a transgender is dreadful not only for the child but also for their parents. The pain of living in the wrong physique and treated as second class victimized citizen is outrageous and fully harboured with vicious baseless negative scruples. For so long, social exclusion had perpetuated inequality and deprivation experiencing ingrained malign stigma and besieged victims of crime or violence across their life spans. They are pushed into the murky way of life with a source of eternal disgust, bereft sexual potency and perennial fear. Although they are highly visible but very little is known about them. The common public needs to comprehend the ravaged arrogance on these insensitive souls and assist in integrating them into the mainstream by offering equal opportunity, treat with humanity and respect their dignity. Entrepreneurship in the current age is endorsing the gender fairness movement. Unstable careers and economic inadequacy had inclined one of the gender variant people called Transgender to become entrepreneurs. These tiny budding entrepreneurs resulted in economic transition by means of employment, free from the clutches of stereotype jobs, raised standard of living and handful of financial empowerment. Besides all these inhibitions, they were able to witness a platform for skill set development that ignited them to enter into entrepreneurial domain. This paper epitomizes skill sets involved in trans-entrepreneurs of Thoothukudi Municipal Corporation of Tamil Nadu State and is a groundbreaking determination to sightsee various skills incorporated and the impact on entrepreneurship.

Living in 21st century in itself reminds all of us the necessity of police and its administration. As more and more we are entering into the modern society and culture, the more we require the services of the so called ‘Khaki Worthy’ men i.e., the police personnel. Whether we talk of Indian police or the other nation’s police, they all have the same recognition as they have in India. But as already mentioned, their services and requirements are different after the like 26th November, 2008 incidents, where they without saving their own lives has sacrificed themselves without any hitch and without caring about their respective family members and wards. In other words, they are like our heroes and mentors who can guide us from the darkness of fear, militancy, corruption and other dark sides of life and so on. Now the question arises, if Gandhi would have been alive today, what would have been his reaction/opinion to the police and its functioning? Would he have some thing different in his mind now what he had been in his mind before the partition or would he be going to start some Satyagraha in the form of some improvement in the functioning of the police administration? Really these questions or rather night mares can come to any one’s mind, when there is too much confusion is prevailing in our minds, when there is too much corruption in the society and when the polices working is also in the questioning because of one or the other case throughout the India. It is matter of great concern that we have to thing over our administration and our practical approach because the police personals are also like us, they are part and parcel of our society and among one of us, so why we all are pin pointing towards them.

A STUDY OF VARIOUS TYPES OF LOANS OF SELECTED PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SECTOR BANKS...IAEME Publication
Banking regulations act of India, 1949 defines banking as “acceptance of deposits for the purpose of lending or investment from the public, repayment on demand or otherwise and withdrawable through cheques, drafts order or otherwise”, the major participants of the Indian financial system are commercial banks, the financial institution encompassing term lending institutions. Investments institutions, specialized financial institution and the state level development banks, non banking financial companies (NBFC) and other market intermediaries such has the stock brokers and money lenders are among the oldest of the certain variants of NBFC and the oldest market participants. The asset quality of banks is one of the most important indicators of their financial health. The Indian banking sector has been facing severe problems of increasing Non- Performing Assets (NPAs). The NPAs growth directly and indirectly affects the quality of assets and profitability of banks. It also shows the efficiency of banks credit risk management and the recovery effectiveness. NPA do not generate any income, whereas, the bank is required to make provisions for such as assets that why is a double edge weapon. This paper outlines the concept of quality of bank loans of different types like Housing, Agriculture and MSME loans in state Haryana of selected public and private sector banks. This study is highlighting problems associated with the role of commercial bank in financing Small and Medium Scale Enterprises (SME). The overall objective of the research was to assess the effect of the financing provisions existing for the setting up and operations of MSMEs in the country and to generate recommendations for more robust financing mechanisms for successful operation of the MSMEs, in turn understanding the impact of MSME loans on financial institutions due to NPA. There are many research conducted on the topic of Non- Performing Assets (NPA) Management, concerning particular bank, comparative study of public and private banks etc. In this paper the researcher is considering the aggregate data of selected public sector and private sector banks and attempts to compare the NPA of Housing, Agriculture and MSME loans in state Haryana of public and private sector banks. The tools used in the study are average and Anova test and variance. The findings reveal that NPA is common problem for both public and private sector banks and is associated with all types of loans either that is housing loans, agriculture loans and loans to SMES. NPAs of both public and private sector banks show the increasing trend. In 2010-11 GNPA of public and private sector were at same level it was 2% but after 2010-11 it increased in many fold and at present there is GNPA in some more than 15%. It shows the dark area of Indian banking sector.

ROLE OF SOCIAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP IN RURAL DEVELOPMENT OF INDIA - PROBLEMS AND ...IAEME Publication
The majority of the population in India lives in villages. The village is the back bone of the country. Village or rural industries play an important role in the national economy, particularly in the rural development. Developing the rural economy is one of the key indicators towards a country’s success. Whether it be the need to look after the welfare of the farmers or invest in rural infrastructure, Governments have to ensure that rural development isn’t compromised. The economic development of our country largely depends on the progress of rural areas and the standard of living of rural masses. Village or rural industries play an important role in the national economy, particularly in the rural development. Rural entrepreneurship is based on stimulating local entrepreneurial talent and the subsequent growth of indigenous enterprises. It recognizes opportunity in the rural areas and accelerates a unique blend of resources either inside or outside of agriculture. Rural entrepreneurship brings an economic value to the rural sector by creating new methods of production, new markets, new products and generate employment opportunities thereby ensuring continuous rural development. Social Entrepreneurship has the direct and primary objective of serving the society along with the earning profits. So, social entrepreneurship is different from the economic entrepreneurship as its basic objective is not to earn profits but for providing innovative solutions to meet the society needs which are not taken care by majority of the entrepreneurs as they are in the business for profit making as a sole objective. So, the Social Entrepreneurs have the huge growth potential particularly in the developing countries like India where we have huge societal disparities in terms of the financial positions of the population. Still 22 percent of the Indian population is below the poverty line and also there is disparity among the rural & urban population in terms of families living under BPL. 25.7 percent of the rural population & 13.7 percent of the urban population is under BPL which clearly shows the disparity of the poor people in the rural and urban areas. The need to develop social entrepreneurship in agriculture is dictated by a large number of social problems. Such problems include low living standards, unemployment, and social tension. The reasons that led to the emergence of the practice of social entrepreneurship are the above factors. The research problem lays upon disclosing the importance of role of social entrepreneurship in rural development of India. The paper the tendencies of social entrepreneurship in India, to present successful examples of such business for providing recommendations how to improve situation in rural areas in terms of social entrepreneurship development. Indian government has made some steps towards development of social enterprises, social entrepreneurship, and social in- novation, but a lot remains to be improved.
OPTIMAL RECONFIGURATION OF POWER DISTRIBUTION RADIAL NETWORK USING HYBRID MET...IAEME Publication
Distribution system is a critical link between the electric power distributor and the consumers. Most of the distribution networks commonly used by the electric utility is the radial distribution network. However in this type of network, it has technical issues such as enormous power losses which affect the quality of the supply. Nowadays, the introduction of Distributed Generation (DG) units in the system help improve and support the voltage profile of the network as well as the performance of the system components through power loss mitigation. In this study network reconfiguration was done using two meta-heuristic algorithms Particle Swarm Optimization and Gravitational Search Algorithm (PSO-GSA) to enhance power quality and voltage profile in the system when simultaneously applied with the DG units. Backward/Forward Sweep Method was used in the load flow analysis and simulated using the MATLAB program. Five cases were considered in the Reconfiguration based on the contribution of DG units. The proposed method was tested using IEEE 33 bus system. Based on the results, there was a voltage profile improvement in the system from 0.9038 p.u. to 0.9594 p.u.. The integration of DG in the network also reduced power losses from 210.98 kW to 69.3963 kW. Simulated results are drawn to show the performance of each case.
