In this paper, the effect of FeSO4.7H2O and SnCl2.2H2O on Cr(VI) reduction is compared by measuring Cr(VI) content before and after adding of reducing additives in cement samples. The determination of water soluble Cr (VI) from cement samples was precisely conducted by in-house developed method. Also compared the effect of additive’s form (crystalline and powder). The qualitative information regarding reduction of water soluble Cr(VI) in hydrated cement paste and extracted solution was monitored by FTIR and UV-Visible Spectra. It was evidenced that the utmost reduction was found in hydrated cement with SnCl2.2H2O.Keywords

Present study highlights the pattern of state government expenditure on economic sector in Haryana (1990-91 to 2009-10). Economic sector comprises the sub-sectors like the agriculture and allied services, irrigation and Flood Control, rural development, energy, transport and communications, industry and minerals, science, technology and environment and general economic services as essential for the economic development of the state. The government plays a very significant role in the development of the economic sector as the most economic sector services fall in the category, which depends on the funds provided through the centrally sponsored schemes. The paper examines the economic sector expenditure of Haryana and its components. The study reveals that through the time share of economic sector expenditure decreases as the social infrastructure demand increases with the pace of time to satisfy the need of the people. In the economic sector, the share of revenue expenditure increases whereas the capital expenditure decreases in Haryana. The share of economic sector to development sector expenditure decreases whereas the plan economic sector expenditure increases from 1990-91 to 2009-10. Energy has captured major share in the economic sector expenditure. With the limited resource allocations of resources from the central government Haryana was incurred with more financial burden. For the further increase in the economic expenditure, it may be suggested that the resources from the central government should be allocated according to the needs of the state. All other sub-sector should also get equal importance apart from the energy as they are the wheels on which the development of the state can drive.Keywords

The current research paper is an attempt to understand the salient features of international and internal migration in metropolitan cities. The phenomenon of migration is reflected by streams, by distance categories, source areas of in-migration, reasons of migration. The results of the study on the bases of census 2001 revealed the contours of life time migration in metropolitan cities and provided answer to questions like: What is the pattern of migration? What are the pull/push factors that affect migration?Keywords

Economic growth is typically accompanied by improvements in a country’s food supply, both quantitative and qualitative, and a gradual reduction in nutritional deficiencies. It also brings about changes in the production, processing, distribution and marketing of food. Diets evolve over time and are influenced by factors such as income, prices, individual preferences and beliefs, cultural traditions, as well as geographical, environmental, social and economic factors. The economic growth in a country eventually leads to a shift in food preferences and consumption pattern and affects nutritional status of the people. This study aims to gather knowledge about food consumption pattern and nutrient intake of respondents of selected blocks of Palampur Tehsil. Palampur Tehsil was selected purposely as it represents the cosmopolitan population. The food consumed by the subject was determined by using 24 hr recall method. The actual intake of food was calculated by using standard nutritive values and RDA (Recommended Dietary Allowances) of NIN (National Institute of Nutrition, Hyderabad). The results were presented in tabular form using average, percentage and NAR (Nutrient Adequacy Ratio) value. Results show that maximum number of respondents were non-vegetarian. The per capita intake for cereal was higher in Baijnath (436.00±9.08 g/day), followed by Bhawarna (430.33±2.11 g/day) and Panchrukhi (426.43±15.81 g/day) respectively as compared to RDA (400 g/day). The per capita intake of pulses (g/day) was less as compared to RDA in Baijnath (65.30±2.21g/day) and Bhawarna (69.49±2.13 g/day). A slightly higher consumption of pulses was observed in Panchrukhi (81.69±2.54 g/day). The higher number of non vegetarian were from Panchrukhi (90%) followed by Baijnath (73.33%) and Bhawarna (60%) blocks respectively. Per capita consumption of vegetables was significantly less in Panchrukhi (198.77±8.69 g/day), Baijnath (277.69±10.62g/day) and Bhawarna (301.00±14.20g/day it is at par with RDA (300 g/day). The consumption of ‘milk and milk products’ was highest in Bhawarna (375.56±22.95 g/day), followed by Baijnath (344.62± 14.99 g/day) and Panchrukhi (212.81±20.82 g/day). Consumption of ‘fats and oils’ by the respondents in all blocks were higher as compared to RDA (30 g/day).
