However, the gap between demand for and supply of fuelwood has been widened in the past few years, which lead to the problem of fuelwood scarcity. The demand for fuelwood has increased due to various factors like increase in population, increase in cost of modern fuels, poverty and non-availability of other alternative fuels whereas the supply of fuelwood is limited to some extent. This paper try to measure the extent of fuelwood scarcity, level of fuel switching and other alternatives to fuelwood scarcity being adopted by the households in Panchari and Chenani Blocks of District Udhampur of Jammu and Kashmir State. Sources of fuelwood, types and quality of fuelwood and distance covered for its collection by the households are being used for measuring the extent of fuelwood scarcity. Similarly, for measuring fuel switching level and other responses to fuelwood scarcity, the number of households using LPGs, monthly consumption of LPG along with reasons for switching to LPG etc. taken into consideration.In order to find out other alternatives to fuelwood scarcity, monthly consumption of Kerosene, Electricity, Crop Residue and Dung has been taken.<#LINE#> @ @ Saxena N.C., The wood fuel scenario And policy issues in India, Field document No. 49, 1-10 (1997) @No $ @ @ Heltberg R., Channing, T.C. and Sekhar, N.U., Fuelwood consumption and forest degradation: a household model for domestic energy substitution in rural India, Land Economics, 76(2), 213-232 (2000) @No $ @ @ ORGI, Census of India on basic Amenities, (2011) @No $ @ @ Martin A. and  Lemon., Gender and forestry : integrating local knowledge into environmental planning and management, International journal of sustainable development (IJSD), 4(3), 265-285 (2001) @No $ @ @ Ramus H., Fuelswitching: evidence from eight developing countries, Energy Economics, 26, 869-88 (2004) @No $ @ @  @No

Urbanization is one of the challenges in a developing country that needs planning and provisioning of adequate transport system and facilities. The availability of good road networks and affordable small private vehiclesmotivateurban and sub-urban dwellers to the use of private vehicles. Therefore, inclination of people towards the private vehicle (two and four wheelers) has been greater as compare to public transport (buses and three wheeler). Due to rapid growth in the private vehicle in the city the role of public transport in the urban mobility of people has become crucial to understand. Thus, this study is an attempt to evaluate public transport and urban mobility in Bathinda andpeople perception about quality of public transport. Apart from this the urban travel attitude and behavior of people in making choice of public transport as their means of transportation has also been studied and discussed.   <#LINE#> @ @ Kharola P.S., Analysing the Urban Public Transport Policy Regime in India, Economic & Political Weekly, xlviii(48), 95-102 (2013) @No $ @ @ Niyonsenga D., Accessing Public Transport Supply for Kigali, Rwanda.

<#LINE#>Spatial Inequality in Health Care Infrastructure in Sundarban, West Bengal, India<#LINE#>De@Dipanwita<#LINE#>15-22<#LINE#>3.ISCA-IRJSS-2014-203.pdf<#LINE#>Contractual Whole Time Teacher in Geography, Swami Niswambalananda Girls' College, Hugli, West Bengal, INDIA<#LINE#>8/8/2014<#LINE#>18/9/2014<#LINE#>Health is a fundamental human right and central to the concept of quality of life. Due to various socio-economic and political factors, there exists a widespread inequality in the distribution of health care facilities in India. The present study attempts to highlight on the existing health care infrastructure and also tries to analyse the inter-block disparities regarding health care facilities in Sundarban which is known as one of the backward region of West Bengal. To identify the regional pattern of health care infrastructure three broad categorie have identified i.e. availability of health care infrastructure, performances of public health care centres and accessibility to health care infrastructure. There is a huge shortfall in the existing number of primary health centres and manpower under the public health system in Sundarban. Nearly 70% areas of Sundarban have suffered from very poor health care infrastructure. Only six blocks viz. Canning-I, Kakdwip, Jaynagar-I, Patharpratima, Mathurapur-I and Mathurpur-II have relatively better health care facilities than rest of Sundarban. The state Government needs to adopt viable policies and programmes and take some immediate actions to improve the health care infrastructure in Sundarban. <#LINE#> @ @ Dreze J.

The sample size of 100(Females=50, Males=50), from D.Y. Patil Medical College, Pimpri, Pune was selected. They responded to the tools of Revised Eysenck Personality Questionnaire (EPQ-R, 1975) and Mental Health Checklist (1999). The statistical analysis i.e.,‘t test’ and Pearson’s Product Moment Correlation among the three EPQ-R scales along with Mental Health Status was used. In the present study, the obtained finding shows that individuals scoring higher on neuroticism and psychoticism has poor mental health status and individuals with extraversion maintains good mental health status. However, no gender differences were obtained on extraversion, neuroticism and psychoticism. These findings are somehow in line with the previous finding; however, the studies related with the mental health are as expected.<#LINE#> @ @ Hall C.S., Lindzey G. and Campbell J.B., Theories of personality, John Wiley and Sons, New York (1998) @No $ @ @ Korchin S.J., Modern Clinic and Community, CDS Publishers and Distributors, Delhi (2004) @No $ @ @ Kok L.P., The Relation Between Personality And The Attitude To Psychiatry of Medical Students, Retrieved on (September, 10, 2010) from online journal Access link smj.sma.org.sg/2806/2806smj11.pdf (1987) @No $ @ @ Gosling S.G., Personality Impressions Based on Face book Profiles.

The carrier of the disease is the leishmania parasite which spreads from the bite of an adult female sand fly. The disease has been found to be endemic in selected states of India like Bihar, Jharkhand, West Bengal among the eastern states and Uttar Pradesh, the state in the northern region of India. About 33 districts of Bihar are affected with the disease accounting to fatalities every year. Almost same scenario prevails for other states as well. In case of West Bengal ten districts have been identified as endemic which includes Darjiling, Koch Bihar, Jalpaiguri, Maldah, Uttar Dinajpur, Dakshin Dinajpur etc. The disease spreads mainly during the monsoon and retreating monsoon thus reflecting strong association of the disease with the environment. In recent years with tremendous initiatives of the Government the case fatality rate of the disease has been reduced to some extent though in some districts the effort is limited in the urban areas exhibiting some amount of negligence in the rural areas. <#LINE#> @ @ Mishra R.P., Geography of Health: A Treatise on Geography of Life and Death in India, Concept Publishing Company, New Delhi, (2007) @No $ @ @ Bora D., Epidemiology of Visceral Leishmaniasis in India, The National Medical Journal of India, Vol. 122), All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi, (1999) @No $ @ @ Dhiman R.C. and Sen A.B., Epidemiology of Kala azar in Rural Bihar (India) using village as a component unit of study, Indian Journal of Medical Research, Vol.93, New Delhi @No $ @ @  Ranjan A., Sur D., Singh V.P., Siddiqui N.A., Manna B., Lal C., Sinha P., Kishore K. and Bhattacharya S., Risk Factors for Indian Kala Azar, The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, Vol.73(1), The American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, (2005) @No $ @ @ Hati A.K., Current status of leishmaniasis-vector biology, Proceedings of the Indo-UK Workshop on leishmaniasis, (1983) @No $ @ @ Dutta A.K., Black Fever in Bihar: Experiences and Responses, Economic and Political Weekly, Vol.43 (Mar 22- Apr 4), Sameeksha Trust, Mumbai, (2008) @No $ @ @ Government of West Bengal, Health on the March, 2004-2005, Central Bureau of Health Intelligence, West Bengal, (2005) @No $ @ @  Government of West Bengal, Health on the March, 2010-2011, Central Bureau of Health Intelligence, West Bengal, (2011) @No $ @ @ Government of West Bengal, Health on the March, 2012-2013, Central Bureau of Health Intelligence, West Bengal, (2014) @No $ @ @ Sharma S.N., Kala-azar Elimination Programme in India: An Overview, Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India, New Delhi, (2014) @No $ @ @ en.wikipedia.org/wiki/11, (2014) @No $ @ @  @No

Human society faces many challenges as a result of population boom, longer life span and the globally emerging information age. While in developing countries we see that population grows at a high rate, developed countries experience decreasing population. At the same time, the number of elderly grows both in relative and absolute terms in every region. In our study we present practical knowledge required by informal caregivers for giving care to elderly people and people with disability. <#LINE#> @ @ Czibere I., Rácz A.

<#LINE#>Dynamic Analysis of Government Debt and Interest Rate an Empirical Analysis in Case of Pakistan<#LINE#>Lakhan@G.R.,A.@Shoaib,Safia@A.<#LINE#>59-63<#LINE#>10.ISCA-IRJSS-2014-226.pdf<#LINE#>FUUAST, PAKISTAN @ Applied Economics Research Centre, PAKISTAN<#LINE#>6/9/2014<#LINE#>12/10/2014<#LINE#> The current Renaissance of the government’s budget deficit has reawakened discussions concerning the impact of government debt on interest rates. Whereas the effects of government debt on the economy can function through a number of diverse channels, many of the recent apprehension about government borrowing have concentrated on the potential interest rate effect. Higher interest rates due to growing government debt can diminish investment, slow down the consumption on interest-sensitive durable goods, and reduce the worth of assets held by households, therefore ultimately distort consumption expenditures through a wealth effect. The degree of these potential unfavorable effects depends on the extent to which government debt actually raises interest rates. This paper evaluates the impact of government debt on interest rate in case of Pakistan using “Autoregressive Distributed Lag Model” (ARDL) approach. To study the relationship, time series data is used from the period of 1971 to 2012. To do the research applicable, Interest rate (r), government debt (GD) percentage of GDP and inflation (CPI) taken as variables to evaluate the relationship. The end results of the study show that the interest rate moves positively if government debt increases. The study also proposed long run and short run relationship exist among variables. This paper also proposed some valuable suggestions for policy making. <#LINE#> @ @ R.V.S.S., Nagabhushana Rao, et al, A Study on Inflation in India, Int. Res. J.
