Although Mahabharat range is considered as stable mountain range, improper land use, cultivation in marginal land and deforestation has triggered gully erosion and landslide. Barren hills exposed due to the deforestation has many negative ( ... )
nmental imperatives. Deforestation results increased surface water run off causing flash flood downstream. Likewise these silt laden run off water also deposits its debris once the velocity of water resided, resulting raised river and stream bed. Thus to address this critical land degradation issue, community based small bioengineering works are essential to stabilize the gullies and slopes. The

But a very interesting local phenomenon is that these Gangegtic dolphins ?locally named as Swanshun, are easily seen during the rainy season in the Mohana river-one of the tributaries of the Karnali. The Mohana River is one of the critical habitats for the dolphin and hence there is a dire need to conserve this very freshwater ecosystem. Fish poisoning is one of the common ways to harvest the
