B. Lahiri\n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n Rameshwar Prasad Mishra\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Growth pole theory (Perroux\, 1950s) emphasizes that development is not\nuniform across regions but concentrated in “poles” that stimulate\nsurrounding areas. Rameshwar Prasad Mishra expanded this concept in\nthe Indian context through his book Growth Pole and Growth Centre for\nRegional Economic Development in India. He analyzed how specific growth\ncenters—industrial or urban hubs—could drive regional balance\, reduce\ndisparities\, and promote economic integration. His work is a key\ncontribution to regional planning in India\, combining theoretical\nframeworks with practical strategies for development planning and\nallocation of resources at state and national levels. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n As per Noise Pollution (Regulation and Control) Rules\, 2000 of India\, the\nday-time noise limit for a residential zone expressed in dB (A) Leq is \n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n 55\n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n 60\n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n 50\n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n 65\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n The Noise Pollution (Regulation and Control) Rules\, 2000 set permissible\nambient noise levels for different zones. For residential areas\, the\nmaximum daytime limit (6 a.m. – 10 p.m.) is 55 decibels (A-weighted\, Leq).\nAt night (10 p.m. – 6 a.m.)\, it reduces to 45 dB(A). These standards aim to\nensure environmental comfort\, protect public health\, and control urban\nnoise levels from traffic\, industry\, and community sources. Other zones \nhave different limits: 50/40 for silence zones\, 65/55 for commercial\, and\n75/70 for industrial areas. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Emergency preparedness for risk reduction does not include \n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n rescue\n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n revision of code\n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n rehabilitation\n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n relief\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Emergency preparedness refers to proactive planning to minimize risks\nand respond effectively to disasters. It includes activities like rescue\noperations\, relief distribution\, evacuation planning\, and rehabilitation of\naffected populations. However\, revision of building codes\, safety\nstandards\, or regulatory frameworks falls under mitigation and policy\nmeasures\, not preparedness. While both are important parts of disaster\nrisk management\, code revision is a long-term preventive strategy rather\nthan immediate preparedness. Hence\, “revision of code” is not considered\na preparedness measure. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n When the ambient lapse rate is greater than the dry adiabatic lapse rate\, the \natmosphere is said to be \n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n negative adiabatic lapse rate\n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n adiabatic lapse rate\n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n subadiabatic lapse rate\n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n superadiabatic lapse rate\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n The lapse rate refers to the rate of temperature decrease with altitude.\nThe dry adiabatic lapse rate (DALR) is about 9.8°C/km. When the ambient\nlapse rate (actual atmospheric rate) is greater than DALR\, the atmosphere\nis unstable\, called superadiabatic. This condition promotes strong vertical\nair movements\, turbulence\, and convection\, often leading to\nthunderstorms or unstable weather. A subadiabatic lapse rate occurs\nwhen the ambient rate is less than the DALR\, leading to stable conditions.\nHence\, superadiabatic indicates instability and rapid convection. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Who suggested new method to measure regional imbalances in\ndevelopment and allocation of funds to States of India? \n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n A. Kundra\n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n A. Mitra\n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n Raghu Ranjan\n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n Ashok Dutta\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Regional imbalances in development are a major issue in India due to\nuneven resource distribution\, historical policies\, and differing levels of\nindustrialization. A. Kundu\, a noted economist and planner\, developed\ninnovative quantitative methods to measure these imbalances. His\napproach focused on socio-economic indicators\, infrastructure levels\, and\ninter-state disparities\, enabling policymakers to allocate funds more \nequitably. Unlike Ashok Mitra (who classified macroregions) or Raghu\nRajan (who later suggested development index for states)\, Kundu’s\nmethodology specifically addressed planning resource allocation and\nreducing inequality across states. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Congratulations!
