Abstract Integrated watershed management programme was launched in Tamsi mandal of gunjala village by using ‘Four water Concept’. Case study included Questionnaire survey from farmers living in that village, and continuous study over a period of two years. Tamsi village is a tribal village and drought area with very less rainfall. Total project area is 4566 Hac, Project Cost Rs. 547.92 Lakhs. The sanctioned area of Gunjala micro watershed is 710 Hac with a outlay of Rs. 85.20 Lakhs. Out of which the total expenditure incurred was Rs.39.12 Lakhs and constructed structures were LBS, RFDs, PTs, CDs and Plantation. Over two year period, it was observed that, 2 years of period the ground water has been improved in this village and three Bore wells are drilled and they are successful, even during peak summer they could meet their day today activities. The farmer Jadhav Uttam has an additional income of Rs. 17600 per Acre in cotton and Rs. 6300 per Acre in Red Gram. The farmer Gnan Singh had an additional income of Rs. 17600 per Acre in cotton and Rs. 5,250 per Acre in Red Gram. The farmer Amber Singh had an additional income of Rs. 13200 per Acre in cotton and Rs. 3,500 per Acre in Red Gram. In the same way, others farmers were also able to generate the benefits from the construction of water storage structures. Total Additional income generated for Seven farmers was Rs. 6, 31000/- in 2011-2012 Cropping Season with construction of Check Dams of Rs.3,24000/- an additional average income per Acre to the farmer is of Rs. 22,500/- and a series of 8 Nos. check dams are constructed on single 3rd order stream which flows Across the 6 Grama Panchayats from ridge to valley. There are 90 farmers cultivating 168 Acre of land who are benefited by getting an additional income of Rs.37,80,000/-.

Different Govt. Initiatives Taken for abatement of pollution : National Affo...SejalWasule
There have been several government initiatives taken for abatement of pollution in India. Here are three key examples:
National Afforestation Program and Act-2016: The National Afforestation Program was launched in 2016 with the aim of increasing forest cover in the country. The program aims to bring 33% of the country's land under forest and tree cover. The National Afforestation Act, which was also introduced in 2016, provides for the conservation, development, and sustainable management of forests. National River Conservation Plan: The National River Conservation Plan was launched in 1985 with the objective of cleaning up and conserving India's rivers. The plan covers 31 rivers in 14 states and aims to improve the water quality of these rivers. Under this plan, various measures are taken to control pollution, including setting up of sewage treatment plants, effluent treatment plants, and solid waste management facilities. Formation of National Green Tribunal: The National Green Tribunal (NGT) was formed in 2010 as a specialized court to handle environmental disputes and cases related to the enforcement of environmental laws. The NGT has jurisdiction over all civil cases related to environmental issues and has the power to issue orders and judgments related to the protection and conservation of the environment. The formation of the NGT has helped to improve the enforcement of environmental laws and has led to more effective management of environmental issues. The National Afforestation Program (NAP) was launched in 2002 to increase the forest cover of the country and to improve the ecological balance. In 2016, the government of India enacted the National Afforestation Program and Fund Act, 2016 to provide a legal framework for the implementation of the program.
The main objectives of the National Afforestation Program and Fund Act, 2016 are: To increase the forest cover of the country and improve the quality of forests.To enhance the capacity of the forest-dependent communities and to promote sustainable forest management practices.
To encourage private sector participation in afforestation and reforestation activities.
Under the Act, the National Afforestation Program Fund is established to provide financial support for afforestation and reforestation activities. The Fund is managed by a National Afforestation and Eco-Development Board, which is responsible for the implementation and monitoring of the program. The National Afforestation Program and Fund Act, 2016 is a significant step towards the protection and conservation of forests in India. It provides a legal framework for the implementation of the.he National River Conservation Plan (NRCP) is a comprehensive program launched by the Government of India to conserve and rejuvenate the polluted and degraded rivers in the country. The program was launched in 1985 with the objective of improving the water quality of rivers and their ecological health.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

4. O In India, Net sown area of 136.18 m ha. Out of
which dryland is under 93.13 m ha. Dryland
agriculture accounts 55 million tonnes of food grain
production. In target to meet 240 million tonnes,
production from dryland has to be increased to 144
million tonnes.
O Watershed Management is the only viable option to
harness production requirement in the agricultural
sector especially in the rain fed unirrigated areas of the
Country.
Why we need watershed
?
4
5. O A watershed is defined as any spatial area from
which runoff from precipitation is collected and
drained through a common point or outlet.
O It is also defined as unit of area, which covers all
the land, which contributes runoff to a common
point. It is synonymous with a drainage basin or
catchment area. The basic unit of development is
a watershed, which is a manageable hydrological
unit.
WHAT IS
WATERSHED?
5
10. Objectives of Watershed development
O To control damaging runoff.
O To manage and utilize runoff for useful purposes.
O To enhance groundwater storage.
O Increasing cropping intensity in watershed areas.
O Improving the socio economic status of farmers.
O Last , appropriate use of land resources in watershed
and developing forest and fodder purposes .

13. O P = Production of food-fodder-fuel-fruit-fibre-fish-milk
- Prevention of floods
O O = Over exploitation of resources to be minimized.
- Operational practicability of all on farm operations and
follow up to different locations in watershed.
O W = Water storage at convenient locations for different purposes
- Wild animal and indigenous plant life conservation
O E = Erosion control
- Ecosystem safety
- Economic stability
- Employment generation
O R = Recharge of ground water
- Reduction of drought hazards
- Recreation

14. O During the rule of the Mauryan Dynasty (320 BC) the
construction of water harvesting structure (WHS) and
sustainable irrigated agriculture in semi arid regions attained
a high level of perfection.
O The golden age of tank construction in the Deccan Plateau
was during the reign of the Chalukyas (973 to 1336 AD).
O During the early colonial period (early 19th Century).The
British concentrated on building large irrigation works on the
Ganga, Yamuna and Kaveri rivers and largely ignored the
pre-existing water harvesting and management of minor
works in the central region.
History of Watershed Development in India
14
15. One of the first major initiatives in Watershed Management in India
was the Bombay Land Improvement Scheme Act, initiated in
1942, just before Independence. Its purpose was to enable contour
bunding by all the cultivators in a watershed.
Centrally Sponsored Scheme of “Soil Conservation Work in the
catchments of River Valley Projects (RVP) was launched in
1962-63.
Meanwhile, conservation work was ongoing in the Drought Prone
Areas Programme (DPAP) launched by MoRD in 1972-73.
In 1977-78, the MoRD started a special programme for hot desert
areas of Rajasthan, Gujarat and Haryana and cold desert areas of
Jammu & Kashmir and Himachal Pradesh (which were earlier under
DPAP) called Desert Development Programme (DDP). 15
16. During the 1980s, several successful experiences of fully treated
watersheds, such as Sukhomajri in Haryana and Ralegaon Siddhi
in Western Maharashtra, came to be reported.
Ministry of Agriculture started a scheme of Integrated Watershed
Management in the Catchments of Flood Prone Rivers (FPR)
in 1980- 81.
The Ministry of Agriculture launched a scheme for propagation
of water harvesting/conservation technology in rainfed areas in 19
identified locations in 1982-83.
In October 1984, the Ministry of Rural Development (MoRD)
adopted this approach in 22 other locations in rainfed areas.
16
17. In 1988 the National Committee on DPAP and DDP was set up
under the Chairmanship of the Member, Planning Commission to
appraise and review the DPAP and DDP.
The concept of integrated watershed development was first
institutionalised with the launching of the National Watershed
Development Programme of Rainfed Areas (NWDPRA) in
1990, covering 99 districts in 16 states.
Later a separate Department of Wastelands Development in the
Ministry of Rural Development and Poverty Alleviation was
created in 1992 and the National Wastelands Development
Board was transferred to it.
17
18. O In April 1999, Department of Wastelands Development was renamed
as the Department of Land Resources to act as the nodal agency
for land resource management. Consequently, all land-based
development programmes and the Land Reforms Division were
brought under this department
O In 1994, a Technical Committee under the Chairmanship of Prof.
C.H. Hanumantha Rao was appointed to appraise the impact of the
work done under DPAP/DDP.
O The Committee also called for a substantial augmentation of
resources for watershed development by “pooling resources from
other programmes being implemented by the Ministry of Rural
Development, e.g., Jawahar Rozgar Yojana.
18
19. O The Committee recommended suitable between different
departments at the central and state levels bringing five different
programmes under the MoRD, namely, DPAP, DDP and
Integrated Wastelands Development Programme (IWDP), as
also the Innovative- Jawahar Rozgar Yojana (I-JRY) and
Employment Assurance Scheme (EAS).
O The watershed projects taken up by MoRD from 1994 to 2001
followed these Common Guidelines of 1994.
19
20. O In 2000, the Ministry of Agriculture revised its guidelines
for NWDPRA, making them “more participatory,
sustainable and equitable”. These were called
WARASA – JAN SAHABHAGITA Guidelines.
O The Common Guidelines of 1994 were revised by MoRD in
2001 and then again modified and reissued as “Guidelines
for Hariyali ” in April 2003.
20
23. Watershed management has been taken up under different
programmes launched by Government of India .
O Water shed development originally managed by National wasteland
development board under Ministry of Environment and forest .It is
now placed under Ministry of Rural Development and Department of
Land Resources.
O At present Ministry of Rural Development and Department of Land
Resources, Government of India funding watershed development
programmes under D.P.A.P., D.D.P., and Integrated Wasteland
Development Plan (I.W.D.P.) etc. This programme is intended to be
taken up in rain-fed and drought-prone areas especially predominated by
SC/ST population and preponderance of wasteland.
O Drought Prone Area Development Programme (DPAP)
O Desert Development Programme (DDP)
O Integrated Watershed Development Project (IWDP)
23
24. O The DPAP was launched in 1973-74 to tackle the special problems by
drought conditions.
Presently , 972 blocks of 195 districts in 16 states are covered under
this programme.
O Other pogramme DPP was launched in 1977-78 to mitigate the
desertification . Presently 235 blocks of 40 districts in 7 states under this
programme .
O IWDP has implemented since 1989-90. It consists of 247 IWDP in 25
states .
O The projects under DPAP and DDP are sanctioned for 500 ha. The
IWDP projects cover an area of 5000-6000 ha. The cost norms for all the
three schemes have been revised to Rs.6000 per ha.
O Under DPAP and DDP, it is shared between the Centre and the States in
ratio of 75:25. In case of IWDP, the cost not sharing between the
Centre and state 100% funded by central government.

32. O Projects are implemented by District Rural Development
Agencies/Zilla Parishads (DRDAs/ZPs) through Project
Implementing Agencies (PIAs). One PIA normally handles
10-12 watershed projects covering an area of about 5000-
6000 hectares.
O The PIA is required to maintain a technical team of 4
experts called Watershed Development Team (WDT) and
individual projects (500 hectares) are planned and executed
by the local people living in the watershed area called the
Watershed Association (WA) through an elected body called
Watershed Committee (WC).
PROJECTS TO BE IMPLEMENTED BY...
32
33. O The Department of Land Resources has brought out a new
initiative called Hariyali with an objective of empowering
PRIs both financially and administratively in implementation
of Watershed Development Programmes.
O Guidelines for Hariyali from 1 April 2003. The Project
Implementing Agency (PIA) will provide necessary technical
guidance to the Gram Panchayat for preparation of
development plans for the watershed through Participatory
Rural Appraisal (PRA) exercise, undertake community
organisation and training for the village communities,
supervise watershed development activities.
33
34. O Haryali is a watershed development project by
central government enabling the rural population to
conserve water for:
O Drinking
O Irrigation
O Fisheries
O Afforestation
34
36. Learning from experiences
O Sukhomajri : First to have IT ecological earnings. In
1979, nation was experincing drought, villagers built small
tanks, use forestland and its grass for use- public, private ,
community shown 19% increase in income.
O Ralegaon siddhi : In 1975, Annahazare who led the
programme by constructing storage ponds and gully plugs
and planting trees around 40000 plants this led to increase
area from 630- 950 ha.
36
37. Ralegaon siddhi
O Anna hazare was inspired by Mr. Vilasrao Salunkhe in
1972, started experiments in watershed development
and water management in some villages near Saswad in
Pune district.
O Hazare, Visited and I decided to undertake similar work
of watershed development in the village.
O He constructed many water harvesting structures with
people’s participation. So far, 48 nalla bunds, 5 cement
check dams and 16 Gabion structures have been
constructed.
37
38. O The villagers under Hazare’s guidance, also
undertook fodder development, continuous contour
trenches and loose boulder structures on 500 acres of
land.
O The watershed development work helped in
conserving each drop of rainwater in the village itself
and in recharging the groundwater aquifers.
O This ultimately raised the water table. In the same
village where earlier it was not possible to cultivate
more than 300–350 acres of land for one crop, now
the villagers are harvesting two crops in 1500 acres of
land. Due to availability of water, the agricultural
production has boosted up.

79. O DPAP-Watershed Intervention:
O At this time, the Voluntary Organization “DHAN Foundation”
entered this village through watershed programme as NGO-PIA.
He used this opportunity to dig a small farm pond in his field.
This activity has changed his life and “transformed from poor man
to a good farmer”.
O He constructed a farm pond with dimensions of 10X5X1.62 m,
which is having a storage capacity of 81,000 ltr of water in the
year of 2000. Again in the month of July 2001 he has deepened the
pond to increase the capacity to 151000 lit and at the same time he
went for revetment to strengthen the pond. The total expenditure
for the work is Rs.4518/-. He contributed Rs.1126/- in the form of
labour to complete this activity
Agriculture:
O Before the pond, he used to cultivate his land once in a year but
now he changed his total agriculture pattern and he is taking three
crops per annum in the same field by using water from the pond
even during the drought season. Now he is cultivating in an extent
of 3 acres of lands (0.5ac his own land and 2.5 ac taken for lease)

80. O Lack of investment in dryland area appears to be a
major constraint in development.
O The flow of funds from government of India- state-
district line department is limited.
O Lack of trained and experienced persons in
implementing watershed.
