Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Pharmacy (IOSRPHR) - Year 2014, Vol 4, Issue 4
Abstract
The paper reflects the ecological dynamics of vegetation with special reference to burning problems that are increasing day by day in villages of Darjeeling Himalaya of West Bengal, India. It includes floras (Roadside, shrubberies, jungles, forests, agricultural land, ridges and furrows of barren hill slopes, near waste water falls, near fresh water falls, grass lands, gardens of private kind, pasture land, vest land etc.), some faunas, agriculture, forestry etc. of the villages. The article also reflects some ecological problems of Eastern Himalaya particularly in Darjeeling area where water problem is severe one including different occupational problems. Sexual problem is also another problem in hills which is related with sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). The drinking water of the hill is not good, because they use locally available water coming from source of top hills by normal leaching process. Therefore, in ecological journey author broadcasts transportation problems of water as well as for life-style of people have been discussed thoroughly. Education and research problems is also highlighted in this article, so as a whole the paper is a nominal one facing scenario of Ecological Problems and prospects of the same. Here, author highlights dynamics of vegetation through which people can mitigate the ecological problems and easily can restore ecosystem pristine in hill villages of Darjeeling Himalaya. This would be helpful for different researchers and students of PG and UG courses to take research problems during project dissertation and post PG students for research and extension programme in the said area. Not only that, I think in near future NGOs and Government should take care to develop different projects at the premises of the Hill villages so that they would take the opportunity for all round development of the society. As a whole, the eco-restoration of the habitat would be better through the research and extension programme in such areas via a model example in all rural areas of hills. Institutions and departments will generate opportunity to work there if become interested through this article with some examples thereby.
