Significance of Albedo
The albedo of the Earth is one of the key features that govern how much energy is absorbed by the Earth's surface, and cloudiness and ground cover are crucial components in climate models.
It has a substantial impact on the Earth's equilibrium temperature because it modifies how much solar energy is reflected rather than absorbed by the Earth.
As recent albedo losses in the Arctic have increased heat absorption at the surface, it is an essential factor in climatology.
It is crucial to the energy balance of the earth's surface because it determines the rate at which incident solar radiation is absorbed.

कोई फरिश्ता तुम्हारे आंसू पौंछने नहीं आएगा, कोई फरिश्ता तुमको ऊँगली पकड़ के सफलता तक नहीं ले जायेगा।

अगर कोई इंसान आपकी मदद कर सकता है तो वो हैं आप खुद, आप ही वो इंसान है जो खुद को सबसे बेहतर तरीके से जानते हैं,

उठिए, फिर से, पूर्ण ऊर्जा से प्रयास करें, आपकी मंजिल आपका इंतजार कर रही है।

The Census was first started under British Viceroy Lord Mayo in 1872. It helped in framing new policies, government programs to uplift areas of improvement in the community.

The first synchronous census in India was held in 1881. Since then, censuses have been undertaken uninterruptedly once every ten years.


Who conducts census?

Office of the Registrar General and Census Commissioner, India under the Ministry of Home Affairs, Government of India.

Historical Significance:

Rig-Veda‘ reveals that some kind of population count was maintained during 800-600 BC in India.
Arthashastra by ‘Kautilya’ written in the 3rd Century BC prescribed the collection of population statistics as a measure of state policy for taxation.
During the regime of the Mughal king Akbar, the administrative report ‘Ain-e-Akbari included data on population etc.
