essay on conservation on water resources in tripura
Answers
Abstract and FiguresThe demand for water among various sectors is increasing due to population growth and economic development, in turn creating competition within sectors. The severity of this issue will have direct impact on water and food security of the country in future. Due to overexploitation of water resources, it has become scarce in many parts of the country. In this regard, government has undertaken various programs in water conservation and management successfully from the inception of FYP in the country. In the course of all these programmes, the country could able to become the largest producer of several millets and second largest producer of rice and wheat in the world. Among the number of programmes, CADWM, NWDA and WDP were the major programmes for land development and water (resources) conservation and management in the country. Further, among externally assisted water sector projects, World Bank is the primary source followed by ADC, JBIC and Kfw, Germany. Many projects under the external assistance of these sources were completed and few on-going in many States. All these programmes under water conservation created huge irrigation potential for agriculture and are trying to improve the water and food security situations in the country. In addition, they not only protect and conserve environment but also contribute to livelihood security of rural poor. Therefore, the country still requires continued efforts of the government along with external aids especially in the issues of global climate change and consumer awareness on water conservation. Government should come up with a new water policy prescribing the role and involvement of individuals, community and government for conservation of water.
Answer:
Tripura is a state in northeastern India. The third-smallest state in the country, it covers 10,491 km2 (4,051 sq mi) and is bordered by Bangladesh to the north, south, and west, and the Indian states of Assam and Mizoram to the east. In 2011 the state had 3,671,032 residents, constituting 0.3% of the country's population.
Tripura area of modern Tripura—ruled for several centuries by the Manikya dynasty—was part of an independent princely state under the protectorate of the British Empire. The independent Tripuri Kingdom (also known as Hill Tippera) joined the newly independent India in 1949.
Tripura lies in a geographically disadvantageous location in India, as only one major highway, the National Highway 8, connects it with the rest of the country. Five mountain ranges—Boromura, Atharamura, Longtharai, Shakhan and Jampui Hills—run north to south, with intervening valleys; Agartala, the capital, is located on a plain to the west. The state has a tropical savanna climate, and receives seasonal heavy rains from the south west monsoon. Forests cover more than half of the area, in which bamboo and cane tracts are common. Tripura has the highest number of primate species found in any Indian state. Due to its geographical isolation, economic progress in the state is hindered. Poverty and unemployment continue to plague Tripura, which has a limited infrastructure. Most residents are involved in agriculture and allied activities, although the service sector is the largest contributor to the state's gross domestic product.
According to 2011 census, Tripura is one of the most literate states in India with a literacy rate of 87.75%. Mainstream Indian cultural elements coexist with traditional practices of the ethnic groups, such as various dances to celebrate religious occasions, weddings and festivities; the use of locally crafted musical instruments and clothes; and the worship of regional deities. The sculptures at the archaeological sites Unakoti, Pilak and Devtamura provide historical evidence of artistic fusion between organised and tribal religions. The Great Chinmoy in Agartala was the former royal abode of the Tripuri king.
