Land use is clearly constrained by environmental factors such assoil characteristics, climate, topography, vegetation. But it also reflects the importance of land as a key and finite resource for most human activities including agriculture, industry, Forestry, energy production, settlement, recreation, and water catchments and storage. The growth of population is greater than the rate of growth of food production. It is usually achieved through proper use of land resources with the application of bio fertilizers, hybrid seeds, double cropping, modern methods of irrigation and manpower. The land use patterns explain from agriculture cropping pattern and changes are analyzed. Two sets of data (2007-08 and 2014-15) were taken in this study. Secondary data’s are collected and analyzed by cropping pattern and land use pattern.

India is the land of diversities. Here dwell the people of various religion, races and traditions. These diversities often vent out as a demand of states in different area of the country. In one side there are a higher income group living a luxurious life and on the other hand there are also a group of people who scarcely earn the income to survive. Almost 70 per cent of the total population is living in the villages but there is still a very poor state of development in the villages. There is no sign of development, no proper facility of education, health,electricity and roads. To make the democracy meaningful and welfare oriented we need the affective decentralisation of democracy through the panchayati raj institution.

Dalit women face discrimination on the grounds of their caste and gender, their oppression both at home and outside. The dual pressures of caste and gender place Dalit women in a specifically far more exploited matrix than their male counterparts. While sexual harassment, threat or rape by upper castes is a well recognized form of oppression faced by Dalit women, what is less recognized is that the Dalit men subject their women folk to equally violent, sexually demeaning conduct. Dalit women have been the object of violence in greater degree from their own men folk, and also from higher caste men. In our society everything auspicious are named after woman. But in reality she is subjugated and ill-treated in many ways. One gets a picture of Dalit women’s predicament from the works of Dalit women writers like Bama and Sivakami. Their writings highlight the role of caste, gender and social class, purity and pollution, gender discrimination, caste discrimination and bias; issues related to survival, double burden on women; their dehumanization and vulnerability to exploitation and violence. The present paper focuses on the pathetic plight of the voiceless Dalit Women in the novel of Bama’s Sangati : Events.

Implementation of different farming methods efinitelyinfluences the agricultural production, productivity and income. It is also influenced by the availability and affordability of such farming inputs in cultivating various crops. Improved farming inputs are more productive and cost effective also.

The purpose of this paper is to understand the emergence and effects of crop insurance in India. Several policies have been introduced from time to time to mitigate the agriculture risk. Farmer’s suicide has been increasing in the country due to crop failure. Present policy on crop insurance has an attempt by Government to address the risk relating to agriculture. Agriculture business is full of risk starting from cultivation of the crop till the post harvest of crop. Indian agriculture is largely depends on Manson. In recent times yield of major crops in country is dramatically reduced due to unseasonal Manson and adverse rainfall. Cultivators are not able to recover the cost of cultivation. These agriculture risks can be minimized through implementation of crop insurance. PMFBY is major step taken by the government in this direction. The following paper aims at reviewing all the policies till now ( also PMFBY).

Anita Desai does not deal with such problems which are totally the purview of a feminist thinker. There lies a deeper distinction between feminine sensibility and feminist approach. The novelist working on the feminine sensibility does not hesitate to pin point the equal responsibility of female characters. while a feminist tries to see only the suppression, oppression, cruelties and injustices did to the woman kind in the past and he links these phenomena with the present. Desai does not follow this kind of ideology in her fictional world.

The Indian society is gradually transforming socially, culturally, politically and so on. The roles performed by both men and women are also changing. Along with the traditional roles the women in urban areas are trying to assert their rights both in family and outside whereas the rural women are moving aheadat a slow pace. There are lot of factors responsible for this like education, employment, skill development, poverty, superstitious beliefs, low status, male domination, security and so on. Their low participation in political sphere is posing to be a hindrance for their development. The leaders of the political parties rarely visit the rural areas and during the time of elections they promise to provide them many facilities only to gain their confidence to win the elections and revisit for next election campaign. Majority of the rural women lack political awareness. The civil society organisations that are working for one or the other cause educate them through the conferences and seminars organised by them to reach their goals and side by side these meetings also pave the way for discussion on the local, state and national political, social and economic issues. These organisations provide a platform to the rural women to discuss their issues and the way to achieve them. It also provides them to gain leadership skills as compared to the non-organisation members. This article focuses on the impact of membership in civil society organisations on the political participation of rural women in the study area.
