The 23 Down Haidergarh Canal command system of Uttar Pradesh is situated in Indo-Gangetic Plain of India. It has huge potential of crop productivity. The canal system was unlined; due to which a huge amount of water waste as seepage, which results, waterlogging and sodic land development. This leads reduction in the productivity of crop land. To overcome with this problem government started the restructuring/lining of canal in 23 Down Haidergarh canal command system.The present study was an attempt to find out the changes in agricultural land of rabi season because during rabi season canal is important source of irrigation in23 Down Haidergarh canal command system. Remote sensing and GIS techniques were used to monitor the changes after the restructuring of canal system. The LISS-III data (Linear Imaging Self-Scanner) of Rabi season for the year 2011-12 and 2017-18 was used for mapping of agricultural land use changes in rabi season for23 Down Haidergarh canal command system. This study is useful to find out the change in agricultural land after the restructuring of canal command system.

This abstract emphasises the significance of planning interventions to construct blue-green infrastructure in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, on the border of water sensitivity. Blue-green infrastructure is a sustainable method that blends natural and engineered systems to manage water resources, boost urban resilience, and improve the quality of life in metropolitan environments. Due to urbanisation and climate change, Lucknow, the capital of Uttar Pradesh, is confronted with considerable water sensitivity challenges. Through the deployment of blue-green infrastructure, this research aims to provide planning strategies that successfully solve the water sensitivity concerns in Lucknow. The interventions emphasise the integration of green areas, water management systems, and sustainable drainage systems in order to reduce floods, improve water quality, and boost ecosystem services. The findings of this study contribute to the expanding body of information about the construction of blue-green infrastructure in water-sensitive metropolitan regions. The recommended planning interventions offer policymakers, urban planners, and local authorities with a road map for promoting resilience and sustainable development in Lucknow.

A comparative study of water chemistry of Keshaliya, Shinghiya and Lohandra rivers of Province No 1, Morang District, Nepal was performed for one spring season in 2016. Altogether 18 physico-chemical parameters were selected to be determined for each river during spring season. The values of each parameter recorded for the above rivers were pH (6.59 to 8.08), temperature (22.4 to 30.30C), electrical conductivity (336 to 537 NTU), DO (4.17 to 10.65 mg/l), total dissolved solids (168 to 268.5 mg/l), total hardness (145 to 204 mg/l), calcium hardness (106 to 180 mg/l), total alkalinity (172 to 226 mg/l), Silica (180 to 393 mg/l), total nitrogen (4.2 to 14 mg/l) total phosphorous (0.07 to 0.45 mg/l), BOD (4.24 to 126.27 mg/l), COD (9.20 to 252 mg/l), nitrate (<0.05 to 0.18 mg/l), chloride (4 to 36 mg/l), magnesium (4.13 to 21.4 mg/l) and calcium (12.15 to 72.29 mg/l).

Background: Word “stoma” comes from the Greek word meaning mouth or opening. Fashioning of stoma is commonly one of the components of surgical interventions on the small and large bowel surgeries. Indications of stoma formation in India are different from the western world. Loop ileostomy is relatively superior. This study was done to study the pre and post take down complications of stoma.Methods: This retrospective, longitudinal, observational study was done on the patients admitted between February and December 2018, in the Department of Surgery (General), King George’s Medical University, Lucknow, UP. The data from e- Hospital software system and operative records were collected and was analysed using SPSS software. All the adult patients having age more than 15 year were included in the study. Blunt trauma abdomen was excluded from this study.Results: Out of total 196 patients male to female were in a ratio of 2:1. Most common diagnosis at the time of stoma creation was ileal perforation 52%. Most common site (42%) of stomas were done at a distance of approximately 12 inches from the ileocaecal junction. Mostly (97.5 %) reversals were performed through the local site. Most common pretake down complication was surgical site infection (22%) and post take down complication was enterocutaneous fistula (5%).Conclusions: Stomas were mostly given for ileal perforation and reversed through local approach by end to end anastomosis. Change in the pretake down complications from skin complications to surgical site infection in our study.
