LAST year 2010 is the record rain year in last 50 to 100 years BUT Some one published that there would
not be a drought in Kutch for at least one century AND ALL THAT published in news papers without any
scientific evidence and without any support of knowledge.

There has been records of two cycles of weather in KUTCH. though a mini cycle of 3 years of good and bad rain
is known as short term periods as we are aware of in our regular life time.

But a major cycle of droughts and very Good Rain cycle are different e.g. 40 years of cycles of major droughts
(e.g. 1, CHHAPANO Vikram Sanvant 1956= 1900AD and 2nd 1940 KUTCH FAMINE CHHANAVO Vikram
Sanvant 1996= 1940AD) affecting most parts of western Monsoon system and also has Good Monsoon of 30
years cycle. both of those weather cycles falls in 120 years world weather cycle studied scientifically with rings in
tree trunks. as good rain makes a ring wider expanding growth and narrows in famines. (30x4 cycle=120
years=3x40 cycle)

CHHAPANO 1956 VS= 1900/01 famine has been recorded in major parts of the world tree records. and if cycle
is repeating after 120 years Major world dropout is possible in next few years after next decade!

Year 1901 Population dropped to 4 88 000 (12%) due to FAMINE of CHHAPANO (Vikram sanvant 1956=
1900AD)

1940 KUTCH FAMINE ( CHHANAVO ) (Vikram sanvant 1996= 1940AD) IN THE YEAR 1941 Population
dropped TO 4 98 000 WW2 and fight of Independence

1959 Population there after increased and VERY VERY GOOD RAIN recorded to 60" in KUTCH

1979 Flooding in KUTCH and BANNI plains of Kutch, which was overshadowed by Destruction of
MACHU DAM of MORVI in Saurashtra.

MALE/FEMALE ratio in KUTCH after 1981: After1981 population in Kutch has first time decreased to
LESS FEMALE than MAN
